Many thanks are also due to my past and present labmates Alex Janevski and Kris Purens for their friendship, moral support, frequent and productive arguments, and shared efforts to understand the world. And to Meg Veitch, here’s hoping we have a chance to work together hereafter. My committee members Miriam Zelditch, Janice Pappas, Jerry Smith, and Dan Fisher have provided much useful feedback on how to improve both the research herein and my writing about it. Daniel Miller has been both a great supervisor and mentor and an inspiration to good scholarship. And to the other paleontology grad students and the rest of the department faculty, thank you for many interesting discussions and much enjoyable socializing over the last five years.

Annual NMGS Fall Field Conference Guidebooks Every fall since 1950, the New Mexico Geological Society (NMGS) has held an annual Fall Field Conference that explores some region of New Mexico (or surrounding states). Always well attended, these conferences provide a guidebook to participants. Besides detailed road logs, the guidebooks contain many well written, edited, and peer-reviewed geoscience papers. These books have set the national standard for geologic guidebooks and are an essential geologic reference for anyone working in or around New Mexico. Free Downloads NMGS has decided to make peer-reviewed papers from our Fall Field Conference guidebooks available for free download. Non-members will have access to guidebook papers two years after publication. Members have access to all papers. This is in keeping with our mission of promoting interest, research, and cooperation regarding geology in New Mexico. However, guidebook sales represent a significant proportion of our operating budget. Therefore, only research papers are available for download. Road logs, mini-papers, maps, stratigraphic charts, and other selected content are available only in the printed guidebooks.

MORPHOLOGY OF ORDOVICIAN - DEVONIAN CRINOIDS Abstract-This paper presents a set of discrete characters to quantify morphology in Ordovician-Devonian crinoids and to allow documentation of temporal patterns of morphological diversity (disparity). The characters cover skeletal form broadly, and represent four principal regions of the skeleton: the pelma (14 characters); the dorsal cup (26 characters); the arms, fixed brachials and interbrachials (27 characters); and the anus and tegmen (8 characters). Analysis of character data for a large sample of Ordovician-Devonian species reveals that, although taxonomic diversity increased from the Ordovician to the Lower Devonian, disparity for the Ordovician-Devonian interval had attained its maximal level by the mid Ordovician (early Caradocian).

Acta Palaeontologica Polonica 57 (3): 613–631. The Silurian crinoids of Estonia are re−evaluated based on new collections and museum holdings. Nineteen species−level crinoid taxa are now recognized. All crinoid names applied to Estonian Silurian crinoids during the middle 19th century are disregarded. Especially significant is the fauna reported herein from the Pridoli because coeval crinoids are very poorly known from the Baltic region and elsewhere. One new genus and four new species are described from Estonia, namely Calceocrinus balticensis sp. nov., Desmidocrinus laevigatus sp. nov., Eucalyptocrinites tumidus sp. nov., and Saaremaacrinus estoniensis gen. et sp. nov.

  • Crinoid and Ostracod Succession Within the Early–Middle Frasnian Interval in the Wietrznia Quarry, Holy Cross Mountains, Poland
    Crinoid and ostracod succession within the Early–Middle Frasnian interval in the Wietrznia quarry, Holy Cross Mountains, Poland EDWARD GŁUCHOWSKI, JEAN−GEORGES CASIER, and EWA OLEMPSKA Głuchowski, E., Casier, J.−G., and Olempska, E. 2006. Crinoid and ostracod succession within the Early–Middle Frasnian interval in the Wietrznia quarry, Holy Cross Mountains, Poland. Acta Palaeontologica Polonica 51 (4): 695–706. Early–Middle Frasnian ostracods and crinoids from Wietrznia in the Northern Kielce subregion of the Holy Cross area were analyzed. Twenty three ostracod species assigned to thirteen named genera, as well as eighteen crinoid species in− cluding the representatives of fifteen stem−based taxa were distinguished. For most of the species open nomenclature is applied. The composition of ostracod assemblage changes from moderately diverse in the lower part of the Palmatolepis transitans Zone to poorly diverse in its higher part. Lack of ostracods in the uppermost part of the Pa. transitans Zone and in the Palmatolepis punctata Zone is noted. The crinoid distribution pattern comprises the interval of relatively high di− versity, interrupted in the uppermost part of the Pa. transitans Zone, and the interval of temporary recovery in the lower Pa. punctata Zone. Such distribution patterns point to deterioration of environmental conditions across the Early–Middle Frasnian transition, coinciding with a large−scale C−isotopic perturbation superimposed on intermittent, two−step eustatic sea level rise. On the other hand, impoverished, surviving crinoid faunas and absence of ostracods in the Pa. punctata Zone indicate the overall long−term deterioration of life conditions through the major C−isotope anomaly time span.

  • Revision of the Flexible Crinoid Genus Ammonicrinus and a New Hypothesis on Its Life Mode
    Revision of the flexible crinoid genus Ammonicrinus and a new hypothesis on its life mode JAN BOHATÝ Bohatý, J. 2011. Revision of the flexible crinoid genus Ammonicrinus and a new hypothesis on its life mode. Acta Palaeontologica Polonica 56 (3): 615–639. The lecanocrinid Ammonicrinus (Flexibilia) is newly interpreted based on new material from the Middle Devonian of the Rhenish Massif (Eifel and Bergisches Land, Germany). The species have echinoid−like tubercles on the attachment and on the column, which bear articulated spines. The intraspecific variability of the column is discussed for three facies−con− trolled morphotypes, herein classified as standard “exposed−” or “encased roller−type” and the rare “settler−type”. New specimens have floating transitions between different plate sculpturing and between those individuals with none or one to several columnals with herein termed “lateral columnal enclosure extensions” on the proximal−most, barrel−like dististele and the following mesistele, which is solely distinguished by these extensions. Based on this interpretation, Ammoni− crinus kongieli is evaluated as a subjective junior synonym of Ammonicrinus sulcatus. The latter species was first recog− nised from the Eifel (Germany). “Ammonicrinus wachtbergensis”, from the upper Eifelian of the Eifel, is declared a sub− jective junior synonym of Ammonicrinus doliiformis. The first nearly complete specimen of Ammonicrinus kerdreo− letensis is described from the lower Eifelian of Vireux−Molhain (southern Ardennes, France). Two new species are de− scribed: Ammonicrinus jankei sp. nov. and Ammonicrinus leunisseni sp. nov. A functional morphologic trend in perfect− ing the crown encasement by continuous modification of the lateral columnal enclosure extensions of the mesistele from the Eifelian to the Givetian, indicates a vagile benthic “predator”−driven evolution of ammonicrinids in the Eifel area.

MORPHOLOGY OF CARBONIFEROUS AND PERMIAN CRINOIDS Abstruct-To allow further investigation of morphological diversification in Paleozoic crinoids, this paper supplements discrete-character data on Ordovician-Devonian crinoids and presents data for Carboniferous and Permian species. In addition to 75 characters used previously, three new characters are incorporated into the data. Analysis complements previous work in suggesting that most of the spectrum of crinoid form was attained early. Morphological diversity did not continue to increase through most of the Paleozoic, even in the face of several phases of taxonomic diversification. This result further supports previous arguments for the importance of basic morphological constraints in crinoid evolution. Shifts in the distribution of morphology largely corresponded with the waning or diversification of particular higher taxa.
