Preface Cephalopods are diverse, highly developed molluscs capable of swimming and jet propulsion. These animals are an important component of present-day marine ecosys- tems throughout the world and comprise approximately 900 species. They also have an extraordinary fossil record, extending back to the Cambrian Period, with as many as 10,000 extinct species. Throughout their long history, they have experienced spec- tacular radiations and near-total extinctions. Because of their superb fossil record, they also serve as ideal index fossils to subdivide geologic time. This book touches on many of these themes, and it treats both fossil and present-day cephalopods. The chapters are outgrowths of presentations at the Sixth International Symposium “Cephalopods – Present and Past,” at the University of Arkansas in Fayetteville, September 16–19, 2004. The Symposium was organized principally by Walter L. Manger of the Department of Geology, University of Arkansas. The editors gratefully acknowledge Walter for his terrific job in putting together this symposium and for making it such an intellectual, and social, success. Other publications related to this Symposium include the abstract volume, assembled by W. L. Manger, and two field- trip guidebooks, one written by W. L. Manger, and the other by R. H. Mapes. Because this symposium was held in North America, it honored four cephalopod workers from this continent: William A. Cobban (US Geological Survey, Denver, Colorado), Brian F. Glenister (University of Iowa, Iowa City, Iowa), William M. Furnish (University of Iowa, Iowa City, Iowa), and Gerd E. G. Westermann (McMaster University, Hamilton, Ontario). These four workers are giants in their fields, and through their research on the biology, systematics, and biostratigraphy of fossil cephalopods, they have enormously expanded our understanding of these animals and the history of planet Earth. This volume is dedicated to them – in recognition of their phenomenal accomplishments. This volume contains 20 chapters covering a wide range of topics about both fossil and present-day cephalopods. We have grouped these chapters into three sections, although we recognize that many of the subjects overlap: ● Phylogeny and Systematics (Chapters 1–7) ● Morphology of Soft and Hard Tissues (Chapters 8–14) ● Biogeography, Biostratigraphy, Ecology, and Taphonomy (Chapters 15–20) v vi Preface Within each section, ammonoids are treated first, followed by coleoids, in order of geologic time. Every chapter was examined by at least two outside reviewers, and their suggestions and other comments, together with those of the editors, were forwarded to the authors. The reviewers made many helpful suggestions; this resulted in substantially improving the quality of the manuscripts. In addition, authors were encouraged to follow General Recommendation 10 of the International Code of Zoological Nomenclature, which suggests that the author and date of every taxon in a publication be cited at least once in that publication.

  • First Record of Non-Mineralized Cephalopod Jaws and Arm Hooks
    Klug et al. Swiss J Palaeontol (2020) 139:9 https://doi.org/10.1186/s13358-020-00210-y Swiss Journal of Palaeontology RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access First record of non-mineralized cephalopod jaws and arm hooks from the latest Cretaceous of Eurytania, Greece Christian Klug1* , Donald Davesne2,3, Dirk Fuchs4 and Thodoris Argyriou5 Abstract Due to the lower fossilization potential of chitin, non-mineralized cephalopod jaws and arm hooks are much more rarely preserved as fossils than the calcitic lower jaws of ammonites or the calcitized jaw apparatuses of nautilids. Here, we report such non-mineralized fossil jaws and arm hooks from pelagic marly limestones of continental Greece. Two of the specimens lie on the same slab and are assigned to the Ammonitina; they represent upper jaws of the aptychus type, which is corroborated by fnds of aptychi. Additionally, one intermediate type and one anaptychus type are documented here. The morphology of all ammonite jaws suggest a desmoceratoid afnity. The other jaws are identifed as coleoid jaws. They share the overall U-shape and proportions of the outer and inner lamellae with Jurassic lower jaws of Trachyteuthis (Teudopseina). We also document the frst belemnoid arm hooks from the Tethyan Maastrichtian. The fossils described here document the presence of a typical Mesozoic cephalopod assemblage until the end of the Cretaceous in the eastern Tethys. Keywords: Cephalopoda, Ammonoidea, Desmoceratoidea, Coleoidea, Maastrichtian, Taphonomy Introduction as jaws, arm hooks, and radulae are occasionally found Fossil cephalopods are mainly known from preserved (Matern 1931; Mapes 1987; Fuchs 2006a; Landman et al. mineralized parts such as aragonitic phragmocones 2010; Kruta et al.

The successions are grouped into sedimentary domains that replace the “facies areas” proposed by previous authors for areas with homogeneous stratigraphy. The description of the sedimentary filling is divided into temporal intervals, where the previous stratigraphic correlation, based on lithological criteria, is supplemented by faunal data, especially conodont findings. A simple palaeogeographic model of the sedimentation during the Upper Palaeozoic and data related to southern boundary between the Pyrenean basin and the Cantabro-Ebroian Massif are discussed. Keywords: Devonian, Carboniferous, conodonts, Pyrenees, stratigraphy. RESUMEN Se ha realizado una descripción estratigráfica de las rocas devónicas y carboníferas pre- variscas de los Pirineos. Las sucesiones son agrupadas en dominios sedimentarios que sustituyen a las “áreas de facies” propuestas por los autores previos para zonas con una estratigrafía homogénea. La descripción del relleno sedimentario está dividida en intervalos de tiempo, donde la correlación estratigráfica basada en criterios litológicos está incrementada por los datos faunísticos, sobre todo los hallazgos de conodontos.

  • Adaptive Evolution in Paleozoic Coiled Cephalopods
    Paleobiology, 31(2), 2005, pp. 253±268 Adaptive evolution in Paleozoic coiled cephalopods BjoÈrn KroÈger Abstract.ÐCoiled cephalopods constitute a major part of the Paleozoic nekton. They emerged in the Early Ordovician but nearly vanished in the Silurian. The Emsian appearance of ammonoids started a story of evolutionary success of coiled cephalopods, which lasted until the end-Permian extinction event. This story is investigated by using a taxonomic database of 1346 species of 253 genera of coiled nautiloids and 1114 genera of ammonoids. The per capita sampling diversities, the Van Valen metrics of origination and extinction, and the probabilities of origination and ex- tinction were calculated at stage intervals. The outcome of these estimations largely re¯ects the known biotic events of the Paleozoic. The polyphyletic, iterative appearance of coiled cephalopods within this time frame is interpreted to be a process of adaptation to shell-crushing predatory pres- sure. The evolution of the diversity of coiled nautiloids and ammonoids is strongly correlated with- in the time intervals. Once established, assemblages of coiled cephalopods are related to changes in sea level. The general trends of decreasing mean (or background) origination and extinction rates during the Paleozoic are interpreted to re¯ect a successive stabilization of the coiled cephalopod assemblages. Different reproduction strategies in ammonoids and nautiloids apparently resulted in different modes of competition and morphological trends. Signi®cant morphological trends to- ward a stronger ornamentation and a centrally positioned siphuncle characterize the evolution of Paleozoic nautiloids. BjoÈrn KroÈger.

  • (AMMONOIDEA) the Hypothesis of Sexual Dimorphis
    ACT A PAL A EON T 0 LOG I CAP 0 LON ICA Vol. 21 1 976 No 1 WOJCIECH BROCHWICZ-LEWINSKI & ZDZISLAW ROZAK SOME DIFFICULTIES IN RECOGNITION OF SEXUAL DIMORPHISM IN JURASSIC PERISPHINCTIDS (AMMONOIDEA) Abstract. - The recent studies on perisphinctids have shown repeated occurrence of peristomal modifications and thus their limited reliability as a sign of ceasing of shell growth. Moreover, they have shown a trend to disappearance of the lappets at larger shell diameters. New evidence for the occurrence of the lappets on small-sized "macroconchs" is given and the transition from "micro-" to "macroconchs" seems possible. It is concluded that the perisphinctids may represent a new type of dimor­ phism not encountered in other groups of ammonites and that the Makowski-Callo­ mon hypothesis of the sexual dimorphism is not so universal as it was considered to be. The criterion of identity of inner whorls may be applied in the systematics of ammonites without making reference to the dimorphism as it was applied by Neumayr (1873) and Siemiradzki (1891). INTRODUCTION The hypothesis of sexual dimorphism in ammonites, put fOll"ward in the XIX C., revived and attracted much attention thanks to the papers by Ma­ kowski (1962) and Callomon (1963). The premise for differentiation of the dimorphism was the cooccurrence of two groups of ammonites differing in the ultimate shell size, ornamentation of outer whorl(s) and the type of pe­ ristomal modifications and displaying identical or practically indistinguis­ hable inner whmls (Makowski, 1962; Callomon, 1963, 1969; and others). The dimorphism was interpreted as sexual in nature.

  • The Middle Triassic Scleractinia-Like Coral Furcophyllia from the Pamir Mountains
    The Middle Triassic scleractinia−like coral Furcophyllia from the Pamir Mountains GALINA K. MELNIKOVA and EWA RONIEWICZ Melnikova, G.K. and Roniewicz, E. 2007. The Middle Triassic scleractinia−like coral Furcophyllia from the Pamir Mountains. Acta Palaeontologica Polonica 52 (2): 401–406. Furcophyllia is an unusual coral with septa regularly splitting into branching sets called septal brooms. This pattern of septal apparatus is so alien to scleractinians, that, despite a trabecular microstructure of septa resembling that of the Scleractinia, the genus was originally ascribed to a rare group of corals informally referred to as sleractiniamorphs, previ− ously known from the Ordovician and Permian. Genus Furcophyllia emerged together with corals of several groups, after the post−Permian crisis diversification of skeletonized anthozoans, some of them markedly differing in their skeletal fea− tures from typical Scleractinia. So far, the genus was represented by middle Carnian Furcophyllia septafindens from the Dolomites, in the Southern Alps. Here, we report Furcophyllia shaitanica sp. nov. from limestone boulders found in the volcano−clastic deposits of the upper Ladinian Šajtan suite of the South Eastern Pamirs. A new species of Furcophyllia signifies that the genus was a faunal element widely distributed in the Tethys.
