Annotated Checklist of Fossil Fishes from the Smoky Hill Chalk of the Niobrara Chalk (Upper Cretaceous) in Kansas
Lucas, S. G. and Sullivan, R.M., eds., 2006, Late Cretaceous vertebrates from the Western Interior. New Mexico Museum of Natural History and Science Bulletin 35. 193 ANNOTATED CHECKLIST OF FOSSIL FISHES FROM THE SMOKY HILL CHALK OF THE NIOBRARA CHALK (UPPER CRETACEOUS) IN KANSAS KENSHU SHIMADA1 AND CHRISTOPHER FIELITZ2 1Environmental Science Program and Department of Biological Sciences, DePaul University,2325 North Clifton Avenue, Chicago, Illinois 60614; and Sternberg Museum of Natural History, Fort Hays State University, 3000 Sternberg Drive, Hays, Kansas 67601;2Department of Biology, Emory & Henry College, P.O. Box 947, Emory, Virginia 24327 Abstract—The Smoky Hill Chalk Member of the Niobrara Chalk is an Upper Cretaceous marine deposit found in Kansas and adjacent states in North America. The rock, which was formed under the Western Interior Sea, has a long history of yielding spectacular fossil marine vertebrates, including fishes. Here, we present an annotated taxo- nomic list of fossil fishes (= non-tetrapod vertebrates) described from the Smoky Hill Chalk based on published records. Our study shows that there are a total of 643 referable paleoichthyological specimens from the Smoky Hill Chalk documented in literature of which 133 belong to chondrichthyans and 510 to osteichthyans. These 643 specimens support the occurrence of a minimum of 70 species, comprising at least 16 chondrichthyans and 54 osteichthyans. Of these 70 species, 44 are represented by type specimens from the Smoky Hill Chalk. However, it must be noted that the fossil record of Niobrara fishes shows evidence of preservation, collecting, and research biases, and that the paleofauna is a time-averaged assemblage over five million years of chalk deposition. -
The Branchial Basket in Teleost Feeding
INVITED REVIEW THE BRANCHIAL BASKET IN TELEOST FEEDING by Pierre VANDEWALLE (1), Éric PARMENTIER (1) & Michel CHARDON (1) ABSTRACT. - In teleosts, feeding is effected principally by suction and food is handled by the branchial basket. Preys are carried to the oesophagus by the pharyngeal jaws (PJs). The pharyngobranchial bones constitute the upper pharyngeal jaws (UPJs) and the 5th ceratobranchial bones, the lower pharyngeal jaws (LPJs). In lower teleosts, these jaws have well-separated spindly parts attached to the neurocranium, pectoral girdle, and hyoid bar; they only transport food and LPJ activity predominates. In acanthopteryg- ians, the PJs become stronger, the left and right ceratobranchials fuse into one LPJ, and the pharyngobran- chials join together to form two big UPJs articulating with the neurocranium. In labrids and scarids, the LPJ is also joined to the pectoral girdle. In acanthopterygians, a new retractor dorsalis muscle gives the UPJs the major role in food chewing and transport. Cypriniforms have developed original PJs with strong 5th ceratobranchials opposed to a postero-ventral neurocranial plate. Small-sized preys and food particles are seized by the gill rakers, small skeletal pieces supported by the branchial arches. RÉSUMÉ. - Le rôle de la corbeille branchiale dans l’alimentation des téléostéens. La prise de nourriture des téléostéens est surtout réalisée par aspiration et le traitement des ali- ments est assuré par la corbeille branchiale. Les grosses proies sont amenées à l’œsophage par les mâchoi- res pharyngiennes. Les pharyngobranchiaux constituent les mâchoires supérieures et les cinquièmes cératobranchiaux les inférieures. Chez les téléostéens primitifs, ces mâchoires sont grêles et formées d’éléments osseux bien séparés, suspendus entre le neurocrâne, la ceinture scapulaire et la barre hyoïdien- ne; elles n’assurent que le transport de la nourriture et le rôle des mâchoires inférieures est prédominant. -

35-51 New Data on Pleuropholis Decastroi (Teleostei, Pleuropholidae)
Geo-Eco-Trop., 2019, 43, 1 : 35-51 New data on Pleuropholis decastroi (Teleostei, Pleuropholidae), a “pholidophoriform” fish from the Lower Cretaceous of the Eurafrican Mesogea Nouvelles données sur Pleuropholis decastroi (Teleostei, Pleuropholidae), un poisson “pholidophoriforme” du Crétacé inférieur de la Mésogée eurafricaine Louis TAVERNE 1 & Luigi CAPASSO 2 Résumé: Le crâne et le corps de Pleuropholis decastroi, un poisson fossile de l’Albien (Crétacé inférieur) du sud de l’Italie, sont redécrits en détails. P. decastroi diffère des autres espèces du genre par ses deux nasaux en contact médian et qui séparent complètement le dermethmoïde ( = rostral) des frontaux. Avec son maxillaire extrêmement élargi qui couvre la mâchoire inférieure et son supramaxillaire fortement réduit, P. decastroi semble plus nettement apparenté avec Pleuropholis cisnerosorum, du Jurassique supérieur du Mexique, qu’avec les autres espèces du genre. Par ses mâchoires raccourcies et ses nombreux os orbitaires, Pleuropholis apparaît également comme le genre le plus spécialisé de la famille. La position systématique des Pleuropholidae au sein du groupe des « pholidophoriformes » est discutée. Mots-clés: Pleuropholis decastroi, Albien, Italie du sud, Pleuropholis, Pleuropholidae, “Pholidophoriformes”, ostéologie, position systématique. Abstract: The skull and the body of Pleuropholis decastroi, a fossil fish from the marine Albian (Lower Cretaceous) of southern Italy, are re-described in details. P. decastroi differs from the other species of the genus by their two nasals that are in contact along the mid-line, completely separating the dermethmoid (= rostral) from the frontals. With its extremely broadened maxilla that covers the lower jaw and its strongly reduced supramaxilla, P. decastroi seems more closely related to Pleuropholis cisnerosorum, from the Upper Jurassic of Mexico, than to the other species of the genus. -

THREE-DIMENSIONAL MUSCLE PRESERVATION IN JURASSIC FISHES OF CHILE Museum 01 Natural History, and Department 01 Systematics and Ecology, HANS-PETER SCHULTZE The University 01 Kansas, Lawrence, Kansas 66045-2454, U.S.A. ABSTRACT Late Jurassic fishes of Northern Chile are preserved in calcareous concretions within black shales of Oxfordian age. Co-occurring invertebrates (decapod crustaceans, ostrean bivalves, and algae) indicate benthic life. Soft tissues of the fishes were impregnated by calcium phosphate during life, whereas the decay of the remaining soft tissue induced the formation of the calcareous concretions around the fishes. Occurrence of vitamin 03 or a hydroxylated form of Ihis vitamin is postulated to have occurred in Ihe Jurassic phytoplankton; vitamin 03 induced a break-down of the regulation of the calcium metabolism in the fishes as is the case in calcinosis 01 cattle. High concentration of phosphate in phytoplankton 01 the upwelling zone on the western margin of the shelf of South America could explain the additional supply of phosphate in the fossil fishes which is missing from surrounding concretions and sediment. Key words: Preservation, 50ft tissue,lmpregnation in lite (calcinosis), Teleostean fishes, Oxtordian, Northern Chile. RESUMEN Los peces del Jurásico Superior del norte de Chile están preservados en lutitas negras. La presencia de invertebra dos (crustáceos decápodos, ostras y algas) junto con los peces es indicio de vida bentónica. Los tejidos blandos de los peces se impregnaron con fosfato de calcio en vida de los individuos, mientras que la descomposición de otros tejidos blandos indujo a la formación de concreciones calcáreas alrededor de los peces. -

The Scales of Mesozoic Actinopterygians
Mesozoic Fishes – Systematics and Paleoecology, G. Arratia & G. Viohl (eds.): pp. 83-93, 6 figs. © 1996 by Verlag Dr. Friedrich Pfeil, München, Germany – ISBN 3-923871–90-2 The scales of Mesozoic actinopterygians Hans-Peter SCHULTZE Abstract Cycloid scales (elasmoid scales with circuli) are a unique character of teleosts above the level of Pholidophorus and Pholidophoroides. Cycloid scales have two layers. A bony layer, usually acellular, is superimposed on a basal plate composed of partially mineralized layers of plywoodlike laminated collagen fibres. The tissue of the basal layer is refered to here as elasmodin. Basal teleosts (sensu PATTERSON 1973) possess rhombic scales with a bony base overlain by ganoin (lepidosteoid ganoid scale). Amioid scales (elasmoid scales with longitudinally to radially arranged ridges or rods on the overlapped field) are found within halecomorphs. This scale type evolved more than once within primitive actinopterygians and other osteichthyan fishes. It may have even developed twice within halecomorphs, in Caturidae and Amiidae, from rhombic scales of lepidosteoid type. Some basal genera of halecomorphs show remains of a dentine layer between ganoin and bone that is characteristic of actinopterygians below the halecostome level. The Semionotidae placed at the base of the Halecostomi, exhibit scale histology transitional between the palaeoniscoid and lepidosteoid scale type. Introduction Actinopterygians, from primitive Coccolepididae to advanced teleosts, are represented in the Solnhofen lithographic limestone. These are fishes with rhombic and round scales. Ganoid scales of the lepidosteoid type are found in the following fishes: semionotid Lepidotes and Heterostrophus, macrosemiids Histionotus, Macrosemius, Notagogus and Propterus, ophiopsid Ophiopsis, caturids Furo and Brachyichthys, aspido- rhynchid Belonostomus, pleuropholid Pleuropholis, and pholidophorid Pholidophorus. -

However, a vast majority of these Early Cretaceous fossils lack precise geographical and stratigraphic data. The absence of such contextual proxies hinders our understanding of the apparent variations in faunal composition and abundance patterns across the Araripe Basin. We conducted controlled excavations in the Romualdo Member in order to provide a detailed account of its main stratigraphic, sedimentological and palaeontological features near Santana do Cariri, Ceara´ State. We provide the first fine-scale stratigraphic sequence ever established for the Romualdo Member and we distinguish at least seven concretion-bearing horizons. Notably, a 60-cm-thick group of layers (bMatraca˜oQ), located in the middle part of the member, is virtually barren of fossiliferous concretions. -
