For over 140 years, convergent evolution of the crab-like body plan (with a wide and flattened shape, and a bent abdomen) at least five times in decapod crustaceans has been known as ‘carcinization’. The repeated loss of this body plan has been identified as ‘decarcinization’. We offer phylogenetic strategies to include poorly known groups, and direct evidence from fossils, that will resolve the pattern of crab evolution and the degree of phenotypic variation within crabs. Proposed ecological advantages of the crab body are summarized into a hypothesis of phenotypic integration suggesting correlated evolution of the carapace shape and abdomen. Our premise provides fertile ground for future studies of the genomic and developmental basis, and the predictability, of the crab-like body form. Keywords: Crustacea, Anomura, Brachyura, Carcinization, Phylogeny, Convergent evolution, Morphological integration 1 © 2020 by the author(s).

It is now generally known that the youngest stages of trilobites found as fossils are minute ovate or discoid bodies, not more than one millimetre in length, in which the head por­ tion greatly predominates. Altogether they present very little likeness to the adult form, to which, however, they are trace­ able through a longer or shorter series of modifications. Since Barrande2 first demonstrated the metamorphoses of trilobites, in 1849, similar observations have been made upon a number of different genera by Ford,22 Walcott,34':*>':t6 Mat­ thew,28- 27' 28 Salter,32 Callaway,11' and the writer.4.5-7 The general facts in the ontogeny have thus become well estab­ lished and the main features of the larval form are fairly well understood. Before the recognition of the progressive transformation undergone by trilobites in their development, it was the cus­ tom to apply a name to each variation in the number of tho­ racic segments and in other features of the test.

  • The Formation of Authigenic Deposits During Paleogene Warm Climatic
    Banerjee et al. Journal of Palaeogeography (2020) 9:27 https://doi.org/10.1186/s42501-020-00076-8 Journal of Palaeogeography REVIEW Open Access The formation of authigenic deposits during Paleogene warm climatic intervals: a review Santanu Banerjee1* , Tathagata Roy Choudhury1, Pratul Kumar Saraswati1 and Sonal Khanolkar2 Abstract Although Paleogene warm climatic intervals have received considerable attention for atmospheric and oceanographic changes, the authigenic mineralization associated with these time spans remains overlooked. An extensive review of the literature reveals a close correspondence between the high abundance of glauconite and warm climatic intervals during the Paleogene period. The abundance of phosphorite, ironstone, lignite and black shale deposits reveals similar trends. Although investigated thoroughly, the origin of these authigenic deposits is never understood in the background of Paleogene warming climatic intervals. A combination of factors like warm seawater, hypoxic shelf, low rate of sedimentation, and enhanced rate of continental weathering facilitated the glauconitization. The last factor caused the excess supply of nutrients, including Fe, Si, K, Mg and Al through the rivers, the cations needed for the formation of glauconite. The excessive inflow of nutrient-rich freshwater into the shallow seas further ensured high organic productivity and stratification in shallow shelves, causing hypoxia. The consequent rapid rise in sea-level during the warm periods created extensive low-relief shallow marine shelves starved in sediments. Oxygen-deficiency in the shallow marine environment facilitated the fixation of Fe into the glauconite structure. The inflow of nutrient-rich water during the warm climatic intervals facilitated the formation of phosphorite, ironstone, and organic-matter-rich sedimentary deposits as well.

A total of 15 families; 36 genera and 53 species are documented herein, including a new genus and seventeen new species; fourteen of which remain under open nomenclature. Most of the trilobites in the British late Silurian are restricted to the shelf, and predominantly occur in the Elton, Bringewood, Leintwardine, and Whitcliffe groups of Wales and the Welsh Borderland. The Elton to Whitcliffe groups represent a shallowing upwards sequence overall; each is characterised by a distinct lithofacies and fauna. The trilobites and brachiopods of the Coldwell Formation of the Lake District Basin are documented, and are comparable with faunas in the Swedish Colonus Shale and the Mottled Mudstones of North Wales. Ludlow trilobite associations, containing commonly co-occurring trilobite taxa, are defined for each palaeoenvironment.

Available online February 28, 2017 The North Dalmatian Basin now represents a part of the Outer Dinarides, and was developed in front of the evolving Dinaric structures by tectonic deformation and marine transgression of an emerged and denuded Mesozoic Adriatic Carbonate Platform (AdCP). During the initial phase, a distal ramp of a foreland basin was formed, characterised by carbonate sedimenta- tion, lasting until the Middle Eocene. In a studied section more than 300 m thick, porcelaneous foraminifera, Alveolina, Orbitolites and complex miliolids (Idalina, Periloculina) prevail, associated with conical agglutinated forms, nummulitids and red algae. These samples belong to the SBZ 11–12 (Ypresian), according to occurrences of Alveolina decastroi, Alveolina cremae, Alveolina multicanalifera and Coskino- lina liburnica.

  • Field Excursion the Silurian Usk Inlier
    SOUTH WALES GEOLOGISTS ASSOCIATION FIELD EXCURSION THE SILURIAN USK INLIER Saturday 15 June 2019 Field Leader: Lesley Cherns (Cardiff University) 1 2 INTRODUCTION TO THE SILURIAN LIMESTONES OF THE USK INLIER The Usk inlier is a periclinal fold (dome) with N-S axis that exposes <650 m of Silurian rocks laid down on the south-eastern shelf of the Welsh Basin (Figs 1, 2). The shelly and calcareous succession includes a local equivalent of the early Silurian (Homerian) Much Wenlock Limestone of the Welsh Borderland, including small reefs. Soft calcareous shales (Coalbrookdale Formation, >245 m) dominated early Wenlock (Sheinwoodian) sedimentation on the Midland Platform while relative sea levels were high (Fig. 3). Late Wenlock (Mid-Late Homerian) sea level fall was accompanied by widespread deposition of shallow marine carbonate sediments across the eastern shelf (30-60 m), including patch reefs with diverse fossil biotas (Cramer et al. 2011a). The Usk area represents the southern extent of the reef belt. The main reef belt and largest reefs are along the limestone escarpment of Wenlock Edge (~30 m; Scoffin 1971), with smaller and scattered reefs in thicker limestone sequences across the platform interior towards Dudley (62 m) and Walsall (Ratcliffe and Thomas 1999; Cherns et al. 2006). At Dudley, a double-peaked positive stable C isotope excursion (Corfield et al. 1992) correlates with widely reported events at this time (Cramer et al. 2011b; Fig. 4). The ‘Usk Limestone’, a local lithological correlative of the Much Wenlock Limestone of Shropshire (as recognised already by Murchison in 1839), forms the top of the Wenlock Series.

  • Legacy of the Locust—Dudley and Its Famous Trilobite Calymene Blumenbachii
    LEGACY OF THE LOCUST—DUDLEY AND ITS FAMOUS TRILOBITE CALYMENE BLUMENBACHII DONALD G. MIKULIC AND JOANNE KLUESSENDORF Illinois State Geological Survey, Champaign, IL 61820, [email protected], and Weis Earth Science Museum, University of Wisconsin-Fox Valley, Menasha, Wisconsin 54952, [email protected] ABSTRACT—The trilobite Calymene blumenbachii from the Silurian at Dudley, England, had a fundamental role in the early study of this prominent group of extinct arthropods. Discovered during the mid-1700s, this was the first trilo- bite known from numerous complete and well-preserved fossils anywhere in the world. Commonly known as the Dudley Fossil or Dudley Locust, exceptional specimens of this trilobite became widely distributed in collections throughout Europe. As a result, they were central to the most influential trilobite papers of the time including those of Walch (1771) and Brongniart (1822). Many basic characteristics of the group, including their ability to enroll, were first established through the study of these fossils. In turn, this information provided the key evidence used to estab- lish the arthropod affinities of this group. During the late eighteenth century, all trilobites were commonly referred to as Dudley Fossils, and demonstrate the initial importance and prominence of this species. It became the standard of comparison in trilobite research, as well as the textbook example for these fossils. No other trilobite contributed as much to the early understanding of these ancient animals. The scientific prominence of Calymene blumenbachii derived from geologic and economic factors. The limestones at Dudley contained an exceptionally rich biota of well-preserved Silurian fossils, of which this trilobite was the most notable.
