Ordovician carbonate platform ecosystem of the Holy Cross Moun­ tains. Palaeontologia Polonica 53, 43-128. The Ordovician organodetrital limestones and marls studied in outcrops at M6jcza and Miedzygorz, Holy Cross Mts, Poland, contains a record of the evolution of local conodont faunas from the latest Arenig (Early Kundan, Lenodus variabilis Zone) to the Ashgill (Amorphognathus ordovicicus Zone), with a single larger hiatus corre­ sponding to the subzones from Eop/acognathus pseudop/anu s to E. reclinatu s. The conodont fauna is Baltic in general appearance but cold water genera , like Sagitto­ dontina, Scabbardella, and Hamarodus, as well as those of Welsh or Chinese af­ finities, like Comp/exodus, Phragmodus, and Rhodesognathu s are dominant in par­ ticular parts of the section while others common in the Baltic region, like Periodon , Eop/acognathus, and Sca/pellodus are extremely rare. Most of the lineages continue to occur throughout most of the section enabling quantitative studies on their phyletic evolut ion. Apparatuses of sixty seven species of thirty six genera are described and illustrated. Phyletic evolution of Ba/toniodus, Amorphognathu s, Comp/exodus, and Pygodus is biometrically documented. Element s of apparatu ses are homolog ized and the standard notation system is applied to all of them. Acodontidae fam. n., Drepa­ nodus kie/censis sp. n., and D. santacrucensis sp. n. are proposed .

Discovery of Serratognathus bilobatus in the Early Ordovician Emanuel Formation of the Canning Basin, Western Australia, has regional biogeographic and biostratigraphic implications. Distribution of Serratognathus indicates a close biogeographic link between Australia and adjacent eastern Gondwanan plates and terranes during the latest Tremadocian to early Floian (Early Ordovician), and the formation of the so-called “Australasian Province”, a distinctive biogeographic entity that existed throughout most of the Ordovician. The S. bilobatus fauna from the Canning Basin is much more diverse in comparison with those assemblages bearing Serratognathus from coeval Chinese Lower Ordovician successions and probably represents an assemblage inhabiting relatively deeper water (mid-outer shelf) environments. The Canning Basin fauna contains many pandemic forms, and bridges the gap in the regional correlation of this widely

  • Early Ordovician Conodonts from the Barrandian and Bohemian-Baltic Faunal Relationships

J .: Early Ordovician conodonts from the Barrandian and Bohemian-Baltic faunal relationships. Acta P a la eon tol ogica Polonica, 28, 3-4, 327-31;B, 1983 (issu e d 1984). The typical Baltic conodont Baltoniodus has been Identified in the Bohemian Early Ordovician K labavian and Sarkan stages. In the upper part of the Klabava Formation (locality s.vatostepanskv r y bnik near My to) Baltoniodus is associated with species of the genera Drepanoistodus, Sca lpel lodus and Drepanodus, which also occur in the Baltic a rea. This contrasts with dissimilarity , st r es sed b y many autnors., b etween Baltic and Bohemian faunas thought to belong to different pa le c zoogeographic provinces. A r ev iew of other groups of fossils indicates that migrations between these r egions in the Ea r ly Ordovician w ere not uncommon. Klabavian B. bohemicus sp. n , is morphologically intermediate b et w een Acodus de ltatus, B . crassulus, and B . triangularis sen su Lindstrom, 1971 and may be identical with the oldest populations of B . navis sensu Van Wamel, 1974. According to the interpretation presented of the evolutionary r el a ti on sh i ps of B . bohemicus s p. n ., the upper part of the Klabava Formation is correIa fed with the La torpian­ -Volkhovian bou n d a r y .

    Pander Society Newsletter DEPARTMENT OF GEOLOGY UNIVERSITY OF LEICESTER LEICESTER LE1 7RH, UK Number 31 April 1999 http://www.le.ac.uk/geology/map2/pander/ INTRODUCTORY REMARKS elcome to the 1999 edition of the Pander potential for Great Basin Paleozoic and Triassic conodont Society Newsletter! This is the first biostratigraphy. However, at the conclusion of the first Newsletter to be distributed electronically, award period, we decided to divide the Great Basin although we are still sending hard copies to section. Ray was going to work on the Ordovician, while Wthose who do not have access to the network or who I was to work on the rest of the Paleozoic and Triassic. request a printed version. We hope this will mark a Why this strange division? transition to exclusively electronic distribution; this will The story of tonight's award and of the division of cut costs dramatically and will also allow us to update labor (and stratigraphy) that occurred more than 30 the Newsletter on a regular basis. If members of the years ago is directly related to three years of field work conodonting community have any comments to make on with Ray. 30 years ago there was limited motel space in this, the Chief Panderer would be pleased to hear from places like Eureka and Lund, Nevada, and Garrison, them. Utah, so we shared motel rooms, at least where there At the outset, I am delighted to have the opportunity was a motel. Now, there are two problems in sharing a to thank my predecessor, Ray Ethington, for all the work motel room with Ray.
