With over 90 scientists from around the world attending the congress, we are able to offer an exciting program including six special symposia each named after a distinguished brachiopodologist and one open session, six associated field trips, as well as an ice breaker and a congress dinner. A total of 119 abstracts, submitted by 169 authors from 30 different nations, have been received and are included in this volume. The contributions highlight new and exciting discoveries, as well as theoretical and methodological advances that have taken place in the field of brachiopodology since the last International Brachiopod Congress held in Copenhagen in 2005. The abstracts for oral presentations are grouped in the six special symposia and one open session. Abstracts for posters have not been differentiated into specific sessions or themes to encourage broad viewing. We are extremely grateful to our congress sponsors: Deakin University (especially its Faculty of Science and Technology and School of Life and Environmental Sciences), the Association of Australasian Palaeontologists (AAP), the Geological Society of Australia, the International Palaeontological Association (IPA), the Williams family (for the Alwyn Williams Fund), the Brunton/Cooper Family, and Mrs Linda Archbold. The generous support of the last three family sponsorships has enabled 10 brachiopod workers, mostly PhD students and early career brachiopodologists, to attend this congress. Much appreciated has been the sustained enthusiasm and support of colleagues who have organised and convened the six special congress symposia and one open session, and those who have organised and lead the mid‐ and post‐congress excursions in Australia and New Zealand (three one‐ day mid‐congress excursions in Victoria; two week‐long post‐congress excursions in New South Wales, and one week‐long field trip to New Zealand). Numerous individuals (staff, students and friends) from Deakin University in the Melbourne Campus have provided great support to the organisation and successful delivery of the congress in many different ways: finances, communication and publicity, transportation, and assistance with visa application and itinerary booking. As the 6IBC Convenor I would like to express my deep appreciation to all members of our Organising Committee and my co‐editors of this volume, for their sustained support, timeless effort and immense personal support to me throughout the past 12 months. In particular, I feel deeply indebted and very grateful to Dr. Elizabeth (Liz) A. Weldon, our dedicated 6IBC Secretariat, and Mr. Roger Pierson, our Financial Manager, who have jointly carried and skilfully managed the most challenging aspects of the congress organisation. Finally, I would like to thank all participants for your interest in and support for the congress. It is with great anticipation that I invite you all to peruse this volume and to enjoy the full range of activities, both technical and social, offered by the congress and its associated field trips.

Petrographic and SEM data indicate that the veins are fracture filling structures, with three types of textures:1) Granular aggregates of calcite (GA); 2) Elongated granular aggregates of calcite (EGA); and 3) Fibrous aggregates of calcite and dolomite (FA). The textural relationship suggests that GA must have been formed in an environment of widespread extension of the basin, while EGA and FA must have been formed in a compressive environment. The geochemical analyses of REE carried out in the dominant fill of the veins (GA) indicate that these fillings must have been formed in a closed system (intraformational fluid movement) for the drilling well Alfa-1, while in the drilling wells Alfa-2 and Alfa 3, these fills (GA) must have been formed in a characteristic environment of open system (transformational fluid movement).

  • A New Species of Conchicolites (Cornulitida, Tentaculita) from the Wenlock of Gotland, Sweden
    Estonian Journal of Earth Sciences, 2014, 63, 3, 181–185 doi: 10.3176/earth.2014.16 SHORT COMMUNICATION A new species of Conchicolites (Cornulitida, Tentaculita) from the Wenlock of Gotland, Sweden Olev Vinna, Emilia Jarochowskab and Axel Munneckeb a Department of Geology, University of Tartu, Ravila 14A, 50411 Tartu, Estonia; [email protected] b GeoZentrum Nordbayern, Fachgruppe Paläoumwelt, Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg, Loewenichstr. 28, 91054 Erlangen, Germany Received 2 June 2014, accepted 4 August 2014 Abstract. A new cornulitid species, Conchicolites crispisulcans sp. nov., is described from the Wenlock of Gotland, Sweden. The undulating edge of C. crispisulcans sp. nov. peristomes is unique among the species of Conchicolites. This undulating peristome edge may reflect the position of setae at the tube aperture. The presence of the undulating peristome edge supports the hypothesis that cornulitids had setae and were probably related to brachiopods. Key words: tubeworms, tentaculitoids, cornulitids, Silurian, Baltica. INTRODUCTION Four genera of cornulitids have been assigned to Cornulitidae: Cornulites Schlotheim, 1820, Conchicolites Cornulitids belong to encrusting tentaculitoid tubeworms Nicholson, 1872a, Cornulitella (Nicholson 1872b) and and are presumably ancestors of free-living tentaculitids Kolihaia Prantl, 1944 (Fisher 1962). The taxonomy (Vinn & Mutvei 2009). They have a stratigraphic range of Wenlock cornulitids of Gotland (Sweden) is poorly from the Middle Ordovician to the Late Carboniferous studied, mostly due to their minor stratigraphical (Vinn 2010). Cornulitid tubeworms are found only in importance. normal marine sediments (Vinn 2010), and in this respect The aim of the paper is to: (1) systematically they differ from their descendants, microconchids, which describe a new species of cornulitids from the Wenlock lived in waters of various salinities (e.g., Zatoń et al.

    New Late Ordovician cornulitids from Peru OLEV VINN & JUAN CARLOS GUTIÉRREZ-MARCO Two new species of cornulitids, Cornulites zatoni sp. nov. and Cornulites vilcae sp. nov., are described from the lower part (Sandbian) of the Calapuja Formation of south-western Peru. Late Ordovician cornulitid diversities of Peru (Gond- wana) and Estonia (Baltica) are similar. Aggregative growth form dominates among the cornulitids of the Sandbian of Peru. Multiple oriented C. zatoni sp. nov. specimens on a strophomenid brachiopod likely represent a syn vivo encrustation. Cornulitids from the Sandbian of Peru differ from those known from the Sandbian of Baltica. C. zatoni sp. nov. possibly also occurs in the Late Ordovician of Laurentia. • Key words: problematic fossils, tubeworms, Sandbian, Gondwana. VINN,O.&GUTIÉRREZ-MARCO, J.C. 2016.

    Strontium-isotope stratigraphy as a constraint on the age of condensed levels: examples from the Jurassic of the Subbetic Zone (southern Spain) LUIS M. NIETO*, PEDRO A. RUIZ-ORTIZ*, JAVIER REY and Ma ISABEL BENITOà * Dpto. de Geologı´a, Universidad de Jae´n, E-23071 Jae´n, Spain (E-mail: [email protected]) Dpto. de Geologı´a, EPS Linares, Universidad de Jae´n, E-23700 Jae´n, Spain àDpto. de Estratigrafı´a, U.E.I. Correlaciones Estratigra´ ficas, Universidad Complutense de Madrid-CSIC, E-28040 Madrid, Spain ABSTRACT Condensed levels are often characterized by reworked fossils that may lead to incorrect age assessments. Strontium-isotope stratigraphy is an important chronostratigraphic tool that can be used to verify the biostratigraphic information from condensed beds. This paper describes a study of the 87 Sr/86Sr isotope ratios of 56 belemnite samples collected from 28 stratigraphic sections of the boundary between the Upper Member of the Gavila´n Formation and the Zegrı´ Formation (Pliensbachian, Subbetic Zone). The petrographic and geochemical data (d18O, d13C, concentrations of Fe, Mn and Mg, and the Sr/Mn ratio) suggest that the belemnites have preserved their original marine geochemical composition. After plotting the samples in diagrams of 87Sr/86Sr values against time according to their biostratigraphic age, four different groups (A, B, C and D) were obtained with respect to the reference curve. In groups A and B, the age deduced from the Sr-isotope ratio is in total or partial agreement, respectively, with the biostratigraphic age; therefore the 87Sr/86Sr ratio is a good method for the dating, correlation and assessment of biostratigraphic results.

Page 1 April 25, 2003 QUESTION PRESENTED Whether a Canadian ban on the import and export of live cetaceans, wild-caught, captive born or those caught earlier in the wild and now considered captive, would violate Canada's obligations pursuant to the World Trade Organization (WTO) Agreements. CONCLUSION It is my understanding that there is currently no specific Canadian legislation banning the import/export of live cetaceans.
