Auct. : A. Handlirsch. In diesem Kataloge sind nicht nur alie palaeozoischen Fossilien angefiihrt, welche sicher zu den Insekten gehoren, benannt, be- schrieben oder abgebildet sind, sondern auch die ohne nahere Charak- teriflierung in der Literatur bloB erwahnten Funde sowie die mog- licherweise zu den Insekten gehorigen und die falschlich ais Insekten gedeuteten. Durch Anfiihrung dieser problematischen Objekte sollen die Spezialforscher und Verwalter der Sammlungen zu neuen ab- schlieBenden Untersuchungen angeregt werden. Moglichste Vollstandigkeit wurde auch in Bezug auf den Zitaten- schatz angestrebt, doch muBten Lehrbiicher, Referate, Musealkataloge und populare Schriften aus naheliegenden Griinden in der Regel un- erwahnt bleiben. Auch Scudders Index (1891) wurde nicht speziell zitiert. Leider ist es noch nicht mbglich, alie einzelnen Fundorte strati- graphisch genau einzuordnen und in gut begrenzte geographische Gebiete zu verteilen. Eine Liste der wichtigsten Lokalitaten folgt weiter unten. Vielleicht wird es auffallig erscheinen, daB die Zahl der hoheren systematischen Kategorien bei den palaeozoischen Insekten im Ver- haltnis zur Zahl der Species eine auffallend groBere ist ais bei den kainozoischen Insekten-Faunen und auch groBer ais bei den meisten anderen palaeozoischen Organismengruppen. Das beruht nicht etwa auf einer prinzipiell verschiedenen Auffassung der Kategorien meiner- seits, sondern lediglich auf der Tatsache, daB es sich Lei den palae- ozDischen Insekten vorlaufig noch immer groBtenteils um Zufallsfunde handelt, die nur einen geringen Bruchteil dessen darstellen, was in jener Periode an Formen tatsachlich existierte. Derselben Ursache ist es zuzuschreiben, daB bisher fast jede Art erst von einer einzigen Lokalitat und relativ selten in mehr ais einem Exemplare vorliegt. Da mit den zahlreichen in die Literatur eingefiihrten aber nicht benannten Fossilien ungemein schwer zu manipulieren ist, habe ich mich entschlossen, viele davon mit provisorischen Namen zu belegen. Die angewandten Abkiirzungen sind ohne weiteres verstandlich. Einige wenige wahrend des Krieges erschienene Publikationen konnten in diesem Kataloge noch nicht beriicksichtigt werden.

Published online at www.arthropod-systematics.de on 25.viii.2009. > Abstract Epipodites are structures on the outer edges of crustacean appendages serving as gills or for osmoregulation. Their evolu- tionary origin has been debated for a long time. Three major issues are of relevance: 1) the function of epipodites, 2) their development, and 3) the fossil record. While it has long been a problem to distinguish the gill and osmoregulatory functions of epipodites histologically, this has recently become possible based on ultrastructure. A respiratory function has particularly been claimed for the limbs or parts of limbs of early arthropod fossils. Not only rami and cuticular structures, but also entire appendages, have been referred to as “gills”. Among living taxa, the opisthosomal limbs of limulids are called gills or gill limbs, although the numerous leaf-like gill structures occur only on the posterior side of the exopods. It has long been known that crustacean exopods do not serve a respiratory function, which is restricted to structures along the outer proximal edge of the limbs.

  • Studies on Upper Carboniferous Insects: 1. the Geraridae (Order Protorthoptera)
    PSYCHE Vol. 90 1983 No.l-2 STUDIES ON UPPER CARBONIFEROUS INSECTS: 1. THE GERARIDAE (ORDER PROTORTHOPTERA) By Laurie Burnham Department of Entomology, Cornell University, Ithaca, New York 14853; and Museum of Comparative Zoology, Harvard University, Cambridge, Massachusetts 02138* INTRODUCTION Despite the importance of the order Protorthoptera, little is known about its evolutionary history. While recent workers have emphasized morphological and taxonomic diversity in the group (Carpenter, 1971, 1977; Wootton, 1981), no one has undertaken serious revisionary study at the family level. As a consequence, our understanding of relationships within the order, as well as relation- ships of the Protorthoptera to other Paleozoic insects, is rudi- mentary at best. Clearly, revisionary studies on this group are badly needed. We know that the Protorthoptera first appear in the fossil record at the base of the Upper Carboniferous (Namurian Stage) and apparently flourished for 80 million years before becoming extinct at the end of the Permian. We also know that they were remarkably lt was one of the dominant orders of the Paleozoic (exceeding all other insects both in number of species and in number of individuals), and is considered by many to be ancestral to the Endopterygota (the group to which 90% of all living insects belong). *Present address.

  • Fossil Perspectives on the Evolution of Insect Diversity
    FOSSIL PERSPECTIVES ON THE EVOLUTION OF INSECT DIVERSITY Thesis submitted by David B Nicholson For examination for the degree of PhD University of York Department of Biology November 2012 1 Abstract A key contribution of palaeontology has been the elucidation of macroevolutionary patterns and processes through deep time, with fossils providing the only direct temporal evidence of how life has responded to a variety of forces. Thus, palaeontology may provide important information on the extinction crisis facing the biosphere today, and its likely consequences. Hexapods (insects and close relatives) comprise over 50% of described species. Explaining why this group dominates terrestrial biodiversity is a major challenge. In this thesis, I present a new dataset of hexapod fossil family ranges compiled from published literature up to the end of 2009. Between four and five hundred families have been added to the hexapod fossil record since previous compilations were published in the early 1990s. Despite this, the broad pattern of described richness through time depicted remains similar, with described richness increasing steadily through geological history and a shift in dominant taxa after the Palaeozoic. However, after detrending, described richness is not well correlated with the earlier datasets, indicating significant changes in shorter term patterns. Corrections for rock record and sampling effort change some of the patterns seen. The time series produced identify several features of the fossil record of insects as likely artefacts, such as high Carboniferous richness, a Cretaceous plateau, and a late Eocene jump in richness. Other features seem more robust, such as a Permian rise and peak, high turnover at the end of the Permian, and a late-Jurassic rise.

Oldest beetle, Coleoptera, †Adiphlebia, †Strephocladidae, †Tococladidae, fossils, Neoptera, †Moravocoleidae fam. n. Abstract. Béthoux recently identified the species †Adiphlebia lacoana Scudder from the Carboniferous of Mazon Creek, Ill., USA as the oldest beetle. The fossils bear coriaceous tegmina with pseudo-veins allegedly aligned with “rows of cells” as they occur in Permian beetles and extant Archostemata. The examination of four new specimens of †Adiphlebia lacoana from the same locality revealed that the “cells” are in fact clumps of clay inside a delicate meshwork, and no derived features shared with Coleoptera or Coleopterida (= Coleoptera + Strepsiptera) were found. Instead, †Adiphlebia lacoana bears veinal fusions and braces similar to extant Neuroptera. These features support a placement in †Strephocladidae, and are also similar to conditions found in †Tococla- didae. These unplaced basal holometabolan families were erroneously re-analyzed as ancestral Mantodea and Orthoptera. Homologi- zation of the wing pairs in neopteran lineages is updated and identification errors are corrected. A new Permian beetle family †Moravocoleidae [†Protocoleoptera (= Permian Coleoptera with pointed unpaired ovipositor; e.g., †Tshekardocoleidae)] is described.

Generally, its venation is similar to the type species, O. macroptera, but in detail it differs mainly by (1) the distinctly smaller dimensions, (2) the obviously narrower subcostal area with the shorter ScP-, (3) the extremely broa- der area of MP- with evidently more branches, (4) the concave branches of CuP- and of the anal forks, and (5) the wider and more regu- lar cross veins. Key words: Carboniferous, Geraridae, Insecta, new species, Omalia, Spain Nuevo Geraridae (Insecta, Hemipteroideo basal) del Carbonífero Superior de La Magdalena (León, Norte de España) RESUMEN En el presente trabajo se describe Omalia anae sp.

The ecology of Paleozoic terrestrial arthropods:the fossil evidence. Can. J. Zool. 68: 1807- 1834. The available fossil evidence for the ecology of terrestrial arthropods in the Paleozoic is reviewed and reinterpreted. Some original data are provided, derived mainly from the detailed morphology of mouthparts, genitalia, cuticular vestiture, and body form. Paleozoic chelicerates were more diverse than their modem descendants and were probably dominant ground-level and arboreal predators. Web-building spiders and highly diversified mites appear to have been absent. Paleozoic myriapods include possibly the earliest land animals, and as abundant detritivores, provided a major conduit for primary productivity into higher trophic levels. Paleozoic insects present many difficulties of interpretation, but appear to have been extraordinarily diverse and may have played quite different ecological roles from today's insects, viewed as a whole. It is postulated that herbivory, defined as predation on living plants, may have been rare in early Paleozoic terrestrial ecosystems, and that most primary productivity was funneled through detritivores and decomposers. In the late Paleozoic, the evidence for herbivory by insects, except for feeding on fructifications, is rare. Insects seem to have played a major part as a selective force on plant fructifications.
