Misikella Ultima Kozur & Mock, 1991: First Evidence of Late Rhaetian
Bollettino della Società Paleontologica Italiana Modena, Novembre 1999 Misikella ultima Kozur & Mock, 1991: first evidence of Late Rhaetian conodonts in Calabria (Southern Italy) Adelaide MASTANDREA Claudio NERI Fabio lETTO Franco Russo Di p. di Scienze della Terra Di p. di Se. Geo!. e Paleomol. Dip. di Scienze della Terra Dip. di Scienze della Terra Univ. di Modena e Reggio Emilia Università di Ferrara Università di Napoli Federico II Università della Calabria KEY- WORDS- Conodonts, Clusters, Biostratigraphy, Basin deposits, Catena Costiera, Calabria, Rhaetian. ABSTRACT- The succession cropping out in the Fosso Pantanelle area (Mt. S. Giovanni, Calabrian "Catena Costiera'; Upper Trias) provided a rich and well preserved conodont fauna. The basin stratigraphic succession is characterized by cherty lime mudstone with minor fine- grained calciturbidites and suspected tujìtes. Conodont founa is dominated by M. hernsteini and M. posthernsteini in the lower and middle part of the section, and by M. uftima in the uppermost part. Every species is represented by a great number of specimens. On the basis of the chronostratigraphic classification ofKozur & Mock (1991), the whole section may be referred to Rhaetian. Due to the good preservation and the great abundance of conodonts (some occurring in clusters), the calabrian Catena Costiera succession may represent a reference succession for the study ofthe latest Triassic conodont founas and chronostratigraphy.

Proceedings of the Indiana Academy of Science 83 (1993) Volume 102 p. 83-91 CONODONTS FROM COAL BALLS IN THE SPRINGFIELD COAL MEMBER OF THE PETERSBURG FORMATION (DESMOINESIAN, PENNSYLVANIAN) IN SOUTHERN INDIANA Carl B. Rexroad Indiana Geological Survey 611 North Walnut Grove Bloomington, Indiana 47405 ABSTRACT: A well-preserved and moderately diverse conodont faunule was recovered from five coal balls in the Springfield Coal Member of the Petersburg Formation from Peabody Coal Com- pany's Eby Pit, Lynnville Mine, in Warrick County, Indiana. The presence of Neognathodus roundyi and the other species recorded in this study is compatible with the middle Desmoinesian age of the Springfield. Idioprioniodus conjunctus is the most ecologically diagnostic of the conodonts and suggests organic-rich, quiet water with a low pH, which in turn suggests that the conodonts lived in a salt-water marsh bordered on one side by coal swamps and on another by near-normal marine waters. Apparently coal balls had multiple origins, and the origin of the conodont-bearing ones is uncertain. INTRODUCTION Because marine fossils are commonly associated with plant fossils in some coal balls, it is not surprising that conodonts have been reported from them. A half-dozen well-pre- served conodonts from Pennsylvanian coal balls from three different States were figured by Mamay and Yochelson (1962), but no other conodonts were figured; therefore, the overall conodont content in coal balls is unknown. To better understand the distribution of conodonts and their paleoecologic impor- tance in coal balls, samples were processed from coal balls of the middle Desmoinesian Springfield Coal Member of the Petersburg Formation from the Eby Pit of Peabody Coal Company's Lynnville Mine (SW'/4 , SWA, NE'A, Sec. -
Late Triassic) Conodont and Ammonoid
LATE CARNIAN (LATE TRIASSIC) CONODONT AND AMMONOID PALEONTOLOGY OF WRANGELLIA by Emily Kathryn Hopkin B.Sc., State University of New York College at Cortland, 2004 A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF SCIENCE in THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES (Geological Sciences) THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA (Vancouver) November 2009 © Emily Kathryn Hopkin, 2009 Abstract The development of conodont biochronology for the Triassic Period is hindered by the lack of understanding of the genus Metapolygnathus Hayashi, 1968a and, to a lesser extent, Carniepigondolella Kozur, 2003. Specimens of these genera collected at Klaskino Inlet, British Columbia are described as species populations of M. polygnathiformis s.l., M. carpathicus , and M. nodosus and variations within these species populations are identified. The morphological variations on platform shape, relative strength of anterior platform nodes, the “communisti trend,” fused carinal nodes and an extra carinal node are shared between all species populations. Although it is beneficial to fully document the generic variability within Metapolygnathus , these variations should not be included in the genus description. Not all variations occur in all species of the genus and only three species were looked at in this thesis. The secondary focus of this thesis addresses the uncertain position of the allochthonous terrane Wrangellia in the Late Carnian. Using paleobiogeographic techniques, data on ammonoid genera occurrences were compiled for cratonic North America, Wrangellia, and the western Pacific, and then compared using the Dice coefficient. It is concluded that ammonoid similarity levels are too low to assess significance levels. Based on the collected data, however, it appears that the Wrangellian fauna is most similar to the fauna of the middle paleolatitude of the North American craton. -

Introduction 19 Localities 20 Palaeontology 23 Concluding remarks 25 References 27 Introduction Species of the genus Diplognathodus may be useful for stratigraphie correlation of Carboniferous strata because some of them are probably stratigraphically short-ranging (e.g. D. coloradoensis according to Landing & Wardlaw, 1981, pp. 1255-1256). Because still little is known about the distribution of représentants of the genus outside North America I thought it useful to relate the few occur• rences of D. coloradoensis, D. orphanus and D. ellesmerensis I encountered during my investigation of Carboniferous limestones from Western Europe and North Africa. 20 v.d.

This makes it, perhaps, fitting for Dick Aldridge writes: In January 2004, I recognised that, us to begin our annual introduction by looking back to having entered my sixth year as President of the Pander see how the Society has fared over this interval. The Society ('Chief Panderer'), it was really past my time to answer is, we have certainly all been very active. The hand over to a successor. There is no stipulated length of period started with a bang (pun too bad to be intended) service in this office, but we have tried to make five in 1998 with a Pander Society meeting in Columbus, years more-or-less the norm, in order to share the Ohio, with the themes ‘Conodont evidence for impacts honour and the chore. Following traditional procedure, I and extinctions’ and ‘Hot topics in conodont asked three active members of the Society, Phil biochronology’. The same year, ECOS VII was held in Donoghue, Catherine Girard and Jeff Over, to act as a Italy, continuing the very successful pattern of these nomination committee, and asked anyone who wished events. Annual Pander Society meetings have continued to make a nomination or to contribute thoughts or in North America in each succeeding year, comments about the succession to contact them. -

[email protected], [email protected] 2Naruto University of Education, Naruto, Tokushima,Tokushima, Japan. [email protected] Received: 26/02/06 / Accepted: 09/10/06 Abstract Sephardiellinae (nov. subfam.) encompasses a Middle Triassic Gondolleloid lineage that originated in the Sephardic realm, west- ernmost shallow Neotethys, from where, in the course of the Ladinian and earliest Carnian, some of its species spread to the world oceans, before extinction as a result of the Carnian salinity crisis. It is composed of two genera, Sephardiella and Pseudofurnishius. Differential criteria in its septimembrate apparatus are the basal cavity structure of P1 element and morphological variations in the P2 and S3 elements. Keywords: Conodonts, Middle Triassic, Sephardiellinae, Sephardic Realm, Neotethys. Resumen La nueva subfamilia Sephardiellinae está comprendida dentro del linaje de Gondolellidae del Triásico Medio y se originó en el Dominio Sefardí, la parte más occidental del Neotetis. Durante el Ladiniense-Carniense Inferior, algunas de sus especies irradian y se distribuyen por todos los océanos. Su extinción está relacionada con la crisis de salinidad que tuvo lugar en el Carniense. La nueva subfamilia está constituida por dos géneros, Sephardiella y Pseudofurnishius las diferencias morfológicas de su aparato sep- timembrado, como son la estructura de la cavidad basal del elemento P1 y las variaciones morfológicas de los elementos P2 y S3, constituyen el criterio utilizado.
