Synoptic Taxonomy of Major Fossil Groups
APPENDIX Synoptic Taxonomy of Major Fossil Groups Important fossil taxa are listed down to the lowest practical taxonomic level; in most cases, this will be the ordinal or subordinallevel. Abbreviated stratigraphic units in parentheses (e.g., UCamb-Ree) indicate maximum range known for the group; units followed by question marks are isolated occurrences followed generally by an interval with no known representatives. Taxa with ranges to "Ree" are extant. Data are extracted principally from Harland et al. (1967), Moore et al. (1956 et seq.), Sepkoski (1982), Romer (1966), Colbert (1980), Moy-Thomas and Miles (1971), Taylor (1981), and Brasier (1980). KINGDOM MONERA Class Ciliata (cont.)

82. Comparison O F Ordovician Cephalopods Between Australia
No. 9] Proc. Japan Acad., 63, Ser. B (1987) 313 82. Comparison of Ordovician Cephalopods between Australia and Eastern Asia By Teiichi KoBAYASHi, M. J. A. (Communicated Nov. 12, 1987) In Australia the oldest cephalopods are ellesmeroceroids in the Ninmaroo limestone of Black Mountains, West Queensland which have been reported by Whitehouse (1936) soon after the publication of the Wanwanian ellesmeroceroids from South Manchuria (1933) . The Toko series which overlies the Ninmaroo limestone contains Actinoceras, Calhounoceras and some new genera resembling Kochoceras and Armenoceras. These Wanwanian and Toufangian cephalopods appear, however, still remain undescribed. The Larapintine series in the McDonnell Range and Finke River regions, Central Australia yields a copious Ordovician fauna including many species of Orthoceras, Endoceras, Actinoceras and Trocholites. Because this fauna, is inti- mately related to the Chikunsan fauna followed by the Tsuibon and Touf angian faunas among the Ordovician ones in Eastern Asia, I suggested Llandeilian, s. 1. for its age (1940). One year before this, Bathomoceras australe Teichert, 1939 was described therefrom and its age was considered latest Arenigian to early Llanvirnian. However, Armenoceras and some younger genera were later found from Ellery Creek (Teichert, 1952) . Therefore the Larapintine series may be pene-contemporaneous to the Toufangian series inclusive of the Maruyaman stage. The Emanuel limestone in the Kimberley region, Western Australia is rich in cephalopods, particularly in its middle portion and its age is middle to late Canadian, although the upper part containing Meniscoceras may be as high as Chazyan (Flower, 1941). Hardomanoceras lobatum is obtained from the main cephalopod limestone. Hardomanoceras is known now to be an important key to the Wolungian age on the western Pacific side, as this genus is widely distributed from Jilin, South Manchuria to Australia through Tarutao Island on the Thailand-Malaysia border (1959). -
High-Level Classification of the Nautiloid Cephalopods: a Proposal for the Revision of the Treatise Part K
Swiss Journal of Palaeontology (2019) 138:65–85 https://doi.org/10.1007/s13358-019-00186-4 (0123456789().,-volV)(0123456789().,- volV) REGULAR RESEARCH ARTICLE High-level classification of the nautiloid cephalopods: a proposal for the revision of the Treatise Part K 1 2 Andy H. King • David H. Evans Received: 4 November 2018 / Accepted: 13 February 2019 / Published online: 14 March 2019 Ó Akademie der Naturwissenschaften Schweiz (SCNAT) 2019 Abstract High-level classification of the nautiloid cephalopods has been largely neglected since the publication of the Russian and American treatises in the early 1960s. Although there is broad general agreement amongst specialists regarding the status of nautiloid orders, there is no real consensus or consistent approach regarding higher ranks and an array of superorders utilising various morphological features has been proposed. With work now commencing on the revision of the Treatise Part K, there is an urgent need for a methodical and standardised approach to the high-level classification of the nautiloids. The scheme proposed here utilizes the form of muscle attachment scars as a diagnostic feature at subclass level; other features (including siphuncular structures and cameral deposits) are employed at ordinal level. We recognise five sub- classes of nautiloid cephalopods (Plectronoceratia, Multiceratia, Tarphyceratia nov., Orthoceratia, Nautilia) and 18 orders including the Order Rioceratida nov. which contains the new family Bactroceratidae. This scheme has the advantage of relative simplicity (it avoids the use of superorders) and presents a balanced approach which reflects the considerable morphological diversity and phylogenetic longevity of the nautiloids in comparison with the ammonoid and coleoid cephalopods. -

Morphological Characters, Systematic Position and Age of Fossil Genera Pertaining to Cephalopods
EXPERIMENT 3 MORPHOLOGICAL CHARACTERS, SYSTEMATIC POSITION AND AGE OF FOSSIL GENERA PERTAINING TO CEPHALOPODS Outline of Experiment_______________________________________________________ 3.1 Introduction 3.5 Common Genera of Ammonoids Expected Learning Skills 3.6 Laboratory Exercises 3.2 Requirements 3.7 Results and Discussion 3.3 Cephalopods: Systematics, General 3.8 References Morphology and Age Range 3.9 Further/Suggested Readings 3.4 Common Genera of Nautiloids 3.1 INTRODUCTION In the previous experiment, you have made line drawings and described morphological characters along with palaeoecology and stratigraphic range of various genera of bivalves (pelecypods). Every genus of bivalves displays a set of distinctive morphological characters, on which basis they can be differentiated from each other. You know that bivalves show a wide range of adaptation, from marine to freshwater and from infaunal burrowers, epifaunal to active swimmers. Therefore, marine bivalves possess different morphological characters as compared with those of non-marine forms. In this experiment, you will work with some common genera of cephalopod molluscs. They are exclusively marine animals and are more active, quick movers, intelligent carnivorous predators with varied shell morphology. They occupy the same ecological niche as fishes. The Class Cephalopoda consists of three subclasses: Nautiloidea, Ammonoidea and Coleoidea. Among which Nautiloidea and extinct Ammonoidea are commonly found as fossils. The third subclass, Coleoidea, comprises BGYCL………………………………………………………………………………………………….….............….…...-138 Stratigraphy and Palaeontology: Laboratory primarily soft bodied animals. Like fishes, cephalopods are equipped with highly developed eyes and sensory organs. They are adapted to fast swimming and have developed more efficient mechanisms to locate their prey, detect predators and to escape from them. -

Mollusca: Cephalopoda (Nautiloidea)
9 MOLLUSCA: CEPHALOPODA (NAUTILOIDEA) A. H. King The term Nautiloidea is used here in a broad sense, incorporating the subclasses Endoceratoidea, Actinoceratoidea, Orthoceratoidea and Nautiloidea as perceived by Teichert (1967). Classification at order level is relatively stable; taxonomic complications arise in recognizing the greater diver sity of nautiloids in comparison with ammonoids and reconciling this within a classification at higher level (Holland, 1979, 1987). The scheme adopted below essentially follows Teichert and Moore (in Teichert et al., 1964) to order level, variations from this are noted in the text; the treatment of Cambrian orders follows Chen and Teichert (1983). The enigmatic genera Salterella (=Volborthella) and Vologdinella have been regarded as taxa 'doubtfully classifiable' within the nautiloids and treated as a separate order Volborthellida (Teichert in Teichert et ai, 1964). The present author follows Yochelson (1977, 1981), and assigns these genera to the extinct phylum Agmata. No detailed cladistic analysis has been carried out on nautiloids; comments concerning the mono- or paraphyletic nature of some orders are mainly the author's own views.

ABSTRACT - Distribution of nautiloid cephalopods in the Silurian of England, Wales, and Scotland is reviewed stratigraphically and geographically. Genera are considered first and then species. Seven orders are present: Endocerida (one genus), Actinocerida (three), Orthocerida (17), Ascocerida (one), Oncocerida (at least ten), Discocerida (three), and Tarphycerida (seven). Wenlock and Ludlow faunas are more abundant than those of the Llandovery. Records from the Pridoli are very rare.
