Erdwiss. K.-F.-Univ. Graz ISSN 1608-8166 Band 17 Graz 2012 IGCP 580, 4 th Annual Meeting Graz, 24-30 th June 2012 Preface Within the frame of the 4th Annual Meeting of IGCP 580 (UNESCO) on the application of magnetic susceptibility on Palaeozoic sedimentary rocks , we intend to bring together scientists that apply geophysical methods working on different time slices. Knowledge of problems appearing through the entire data-gaining-procedure (from application to interpretation) of Magnetic Susceptibility (MS) & Gamma-Ray Spectrometry (GRS) signals and possible ways how to deal with them is one of the major tasks of this conference. A full understanding of these geophysical methods is crucial in order to use them as palaeoclimatic and palaeoenvironmental proxies. In this framework, this conference is organized in conjunction with the IGCP 596 project ( Climate change and biodiversity patterns in the Mid- Palaeozoic ). Additionally this meeting shall highlight the productive cooperation between IGCP 580 and NAP0017, one of its subprojects on MS & GRS in the Carnic Alps , which after two successful years will come to an end by 30.06.2012.

Thus, three new ichnospecies Matthew described appeared in the 1975 Treatise on Invertebrate Paleontology as “unrecognized or unrecognizable” and were mostly forgotten by vertebrate ichnologists. These traces include Hylopus (?) variabilis, Nanopus (?) vetustus and Bipezia bilobata. One ichnospecies, Hylopus (?) variabilis, here is retained as a valid tetrapod footprint ichnotaxon and reassigned to the ichnogenus Limnopus as a new combination, together with other poorly preserved specimens Matthew labeled, but never described. Nanopus (?) vetustus and Bipezia bilobata named by Matthew in the same paper, have been reexamined and remain as nomina dubia. RÉSUMÉ Les ichnotaxons vertébrés de Fern Ledges du Carbonifère supérieur (Pennsylvanien inférieur) de Saint John, au Nouveau-Brunswick, décrits par George Frederic Matthew en 1910 avaient été rejetés par des auteurs précédents les considérant comme des séries de traces douteuses. Trois nouvelles ichnoespèces décrites par Matthew sont ainsi appa- rues dans le Treatise on Invertebrate Paleontology (Traité sur la paléontologie des invertébrés) de 1975 à titre d’espèces « non identifiées ou non identifiables » et ont principalement été laissées aux ichnologues des vertébrés.

Paseo de Ronda 47, 15011 A Coruña (Spain). [email protected] ABSTRACT A stratigraphic description of the Devonian and Carboniferous pre-Variscan rocks of the Pyrenees is presented. The successions are grouped into sedimentary domains that replace the “facies areas” proposed by previous authors for areas with homogeneous stratigraphy. The description of the sedimentary filling is divided into temporal intervals, where the previous stratigraphic correlation, based on lithological criteria, is supplemented by faunal data, especially conodont findings. A simple palaeogeographic model of the sedimentation during the Upper Palaeozoic and data related to southern boundary between the Pyrenean basin and the Cantabro-Ebroian Massif are discussed. Keywords: Devonian, Carboniferous, conodonts, Pyrenees, stratigraphy. RESUMEN Se ha realizado una descripción estratigráfica de las rocas devónicas y carboníferas pre- variscas de los Pirineos. Las sucesiones son agrupadas en dominios sedimentarios que sustituyen a las “áreas de facies” propuestas por los autores previos para zonas con una estratigrafía homogénea. La descripción del relleno sedimentario está dividida en intervalos de tiempo, donde la correlación estratigráfica basada en criterios litológicos está incrementada por los datos faunísticos, sobre todo los hallazgos de conodontos.

Introduction The Carnic Alps are an east-west directed 100 km long and 10—20 km broad mountain chain in Sou­ thern Austria and Northern Italy. Towards the east they continue to the Karawanken Alps forming the border between Austria and Yugoslavia. The highest peak is Hohe Warte (Mt. Coglians) in the Central Carnic Alps with an altitude of almost 2800 m; most peaks, however, range between 2000 to 2500 m. The mountains are separated by deep valleys and thus form a spectacular landscape, the scenery of which is strongly influenced by repeated alternations from shale dominated areas to rocky limestone regions.

PeerJ 6:e4346 https://doi.org/10.7717/peerj.4346 On the morphological variability of Ichniotherium tracks and evolution of locomotion in the sistergroup of amniotes Michael Buchwitz Corresp., 1 , Sebastian Voigt Corresp. 2 1 Museum für Naturkunde Magdeburg, Magdeburg, Germany 2 Urweltmuseum Geoskop, Kusel, Germany Corresponding Authors: Michael Buchwitz, Sebastian Voigt Email address: [email protected], [email protected] Ichniotherium tracks with a relatively short pedal digit V (digit length ratio V/IV < 0.6) form the majority of yet described Late Carboniferous to Early Permian diadectomorph tracks and can be related to a certain diadectid clade with corresponding phalangeal reduction that includes Diadectes and its close relatives. Here we document the variation of digit proportions and trackway parameters in 25 trackways (69 step cycles) from nine localities and seven further specimens with incomplete step cycles from the type locality of Ichniotherium cottae (Gottlob quarry) in order to find out whether this type of Ichniotherium tracks represents a homogeneous group or an assemblage of distinct morphotypes and includes variability indicative for evolutionary change in trackmaker locomotion. According to our results, the largest sample of tracks from three Lower Permian sites of the Thuringian Forest, commonly referred to Ichniotherium cottae, is not homogeneous but shows a clear distinction in pace length, pace angulation, apparent trunk length and toe proportions between tracks from Bromacker quarry and those from the stratigraphically older sites Birkheide and Gottlob quarry.

    A revision of tetrapod footprints from the late Carboniferous of the West Midlands, UK Luke E. Meade, Andrew S. Jones and Richard J. Butler School of Geography, Earth and Environmental Sciences, University of Birmingham, Birmingham, United Kingdom ABSTRACT A series of sandstone slabs from Hamstead, Birmingham (West Midlands, UK), preserve an assemblage of tetrapod trackways and individual tracks from the Enville Member of the Salop Formation (late Carboniferous: late Moscovian–Kasimovian). This material has received limited previous study, despite being one of the few British sites to preserve Carboniferous tetrapod footprints. Here, we restudy and revise the taxonomy of this material, and document it using 3D models produced using photogrammetry. The assemblage is dominated by large tracks assigned to Limnopus isp., which were made by early amphibians (temnospondyls). A number of similar but smaller tracks are assigned to Batrachichnus salamandroides (also made by temnospondyls). Dimetropus leisnerianus (made by early synapsids) and Dromopus lacertoides (made by lizard-like sauropsids such as araeoscelids) are also present. This ichnofauna contrasts with a slightly stratigraphically older, more extensive and better-studied assemblage from Alveley (Shropshire), which is dominated by small amphibians with relatively rare reptiliomorphs, but which lacks Dromopus tracks. The presence of Dromopus lacertoides at Hamstead is consistent with the trend towards increasing aridity through the late Carboniferous. It is possible that the assemblage is the stratigraphically oldest occurrence of this Submitted 20 September 2016 important amniote ichnotaxon.

  • SAPPADA – SORGENTI DEL PIAVE – MONTE PERALBA-FERRATA DEL CHIADENIS 20-21 Settembre 2008
    Club Alpino Italiano Sezione “BRUNO SOLDATI” ARGENTA (FE) SAPPADA – SORGENTI DEL PIAVE – MONTE PERALBA-FERRATA DEL CHIADENIS 20-21 Settembre 2008 Il Monte Peralba (Hochweisstein in lingua tedesca m. 2693) si trova sulle Alpi Carniche; dalle sue pendici nasce il fiume Piave, la seconda vetta dopo il Monte Coglians. Il Peralba si trova al confine tra la provincia di Belluno, la Carnia (Friuli Venezia Giulia) e l'Austria. È formato da roccia calcarea dal caratteristico colore bianco, da qui appunto il suo nome che tradotto dal dialetto locale significa "Pietra Bianca". Tale tipo di roccia è caratteristica comune delle Alpi Carniche orientali, chiamate anche Dolomiti Carniche proprio per il colore "bianco dolomitico" delle vette; le principali differenze con le Dolomiti vere e proprie sono l'altezza e l'età, le Dolomiti Carniche sono infatti più basse e antiche. Cenni storici: il monte Peralba è stato salito la prima volta da Schonhuber nel 1854, durante il primo conflitto mondiale rappresentava il perno della difesa Austriaca di tutta la zona; sono ancora visibili molti reperti come filo spinato, muri a secco e tunnel scavati nella roccia. Fu teatro di un tentativo di attacco degli Italiani purtroppo fallito solo perché dopo esser riusciti ad occupare le postazioni nemiche dovettero abbandonarle per l’esaurimento delle munizioni. Il sentiero che dal rifugio Calvi porta alla Cima del Peralba è stato dedicato al Papa Giovanni Paolo II che nel Luglio 1988 raggiunse a piedi la cima del monte. L’eventuale gruppo “C” avrà la possibilità di visitare le sorgenti del Piave e la bellissima Sappada. Direttore di gita: Martinelli Marco, Campoli Vittorio PROGRAMMA Sabato 20 Settembre 2008 ore 6:00 Ritrovo in piazza Marconi ad Argenta ore 6:15 Partenza in Pullman per Sappada.
