Available Generic Names for Trilobites
AVAILABLE GENERIC NAMES FOR TRILOBITES P.A. JELL AND J.M. ADRAIN Jell, P.A. & Adrain, J.M. 30 8 2002: Available generic names for trilobites. Memoirs of the Queensland Museum 48(2): 331-553. Brisbane. ISSN0079-8835. Aconsolidated list of available generic names introduced since the beginning of the binomial nomenclature system for trilobites is presented for the first time. Each entry is accompanied by the author and date of availability, by the name of the type species, by a lithostratigraphic or biostratigraphic and geographic reference for the type species, by a family assignment and by an age indication of the type species at the Period level (e.g. MCAM, LDEV). A second listing of these names is taxonomically arranged in families with the families listed alphabetically, higher level classification being outside the scope of this work. We also provide a list of names that have apparently been applied to trilobites but which remain nomina nuda within the ICZN definition. Peter A.

Mattson, dated July 15, 1975, Subject: U.S. Tectonic Province Map INTRODUCTION This memo transmits NUREG/CR-0875 entitled, 11 Seismicity and Tectonic Relationships of the Nemaha Uplift in Oklahoma, Part II. 11 The research effort to produce this report was conducted by the Oklahoma Geological Survey. This research.is a cooperative geologic, seismic and geophysical effort of the State Geological Surveys of Oklahoma, Kansas, Nebraska, Iowa and Minnesota to study the earth science parameters of the Nemaha Uplift {NU) and the Midcontinent Gravity Anomaly (MGA). The NU and MGA are buried geologic structures along with which some scientists have associated a history of .earthquake activity. Hence, a knowledge of the NU and MGA is of vital importance in the siting and licensing of nuclear power plants. SUMMARY . The Oklahoma Geological Survey's geologic and seismologic investigations of the NU continued in FY 1978. The geologic studies concentrated on (1) the completion of structure-contour maps on the top of the Viola Formation, the base of the Pennsylvanian, and the top of the Oswego Formation; and (2) a detailed structure-history study of the NU in the Oklahoma City area. -
Introduction to the Trilobites: Morphology, Ecology, Macroevolution and More by Michelle M
Introduction to the Trilobites: Morphology, Ecology, Macroevolution and More By Michelle M. Casey1, Perry Kennard2, and Bruce S. Lieberman1, 3 1Biodiversity Institute, University of Kansas, Lawrence, KS, 66045, 2Earth Science Teacher, Southwest Middle School, USD497, and 3Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology, University of Kansas, Lawrence, KS 66045 Middle level laboratory exercise for Earth or General Science; supported provided by National Science Foundation (NSF) grants DEB-1256993 and EF-1206757. Learning Goals and Pedagogy This lab is designed for middle level General Science or Earth Science classes. The learning goals for this lab are the following: 1) to familiarize students with the anatomy and terminology relating to trilobites; 2) to give students experience identifying morphologic structures on real fossil specimens 3) to highlight major events or trends in the evolutionary history and ecology of the Trilobita; and 4) to expose students to the study of macroevolution in the fossil record using trilobites as a case study. Introduction to the Trilobites The Trilobites are an extinct subphylum of the Arthropoda (the most diverse phylum on earth with nearly a million species described). Arthropoda also contains all fossil and living crustaceans, spiders, and insects as well as several other extinct groups. The trilobites were an extremely important and diverse type of marine invertebrates that lived during the Paleozoic Era. They only lived in the oceans but occurred in all types of marine environments, and ranged in size from less than a centimeter to almost a meter across. They were once one of the most successful of all animal groups and in certain fossil deposits, especially in the Cambrian, Ordovician, and Devonian periods, they are extremely abundant.
