    Biodiversity Journal, 2017, 8 (2): 315–389 MONOGRAPH Revision of the genus Amphiope L. Agassiz, 1840 (Echinoidea Astriclypeidae) with the description of a new species from the Miocene of France Paolo Stara1& Enrico Borghi2 1Centro Studi di Storia Naturale del Mediterraneo - Museo di Storia Naturale Aquilegia and Geomuseo Monte Arci, Masullas, Oristano, Sardinia, Italy; e-mail: [email protected] 2Società Reggiana di Scienze Naturali, Via Tosti 1, 42100 Reggio Emilia, Italy; e-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT The taxonomy of Amphiope L. Agassiz, 1840 (Echinoidea, Astriclypeidae), an echinoid dis- tributed in the Oligo-Miocene of Central and Southern Europe, is largely unresolved since the description of most species attributed to this genus was based only on the external mor- phological features, while important characters, such as the oral plating and the internal sup- port system, were poorly illustrated or completely omitted. Additionally, the type material of some species was missing or badly preserved and geographical/stratigraphical information about the type-locality was unclear. This was the case also for Amphiope bioculata (Des Moulins, 1837), the type species of the genus. The poor definition of the earlier described species of Amphiope prevented comparison with fossils from other localities and ages, sub- sequently attributed to this genus. A large part of the earlier species of Amphiope, key-taxa for the resolution of the complex taxonomy of this genus, are herein revised by modern meth- ods. For this purpose, the type material available in public institutions has been re-examined and, when possible, new topo-typic material has been collected. As a result, the morphological description of A.

Two parts per year will be completed with the first three parts discussing echinoids. Part 1 (published June 2001) covered Eocene echinoids, Parl2 (January 2002 publication) is about Oligocene and Miocene echinoids, and Part 3 (June 2002 publication) will be on Pliocene and Pleistocene echinoids. Each issue will be image-rich and, whenever possible, specimen images will be at natural size (1x). Some of the specimens figured in this series soon will be on display at Powell Hall, the museum's Exhibit and Education Center. Each part of the series will deal with a specific taxonomic group (e.9., echinoids) and contain a brief discussion of that group's life history along with the pertinent geological setting.

Gallardo 470, C1405DJR Buenos Aires, Argentina; [email protected] Received 15-XII-2016. Corrected 03-IV-2017. Accepted 07-VI-2017. Abstract: Neogene Argentinean echinoids are important biostratigraphic tools. New specimens of Schizaster iheringi (de Loriol, 1902) from Early Miocene sedimentites (Chenque Formation, Patagonia, Argentina) allowed us to improve its original description, providing for the first time details of the apical disc and the oral side of test. The species is included into the genus Brisaster: the first unquestionable documented reference to the taxon from the Neogene of Argentina. All previously reported specimens of this species are evaluated, concluding that the stratigraphic range of the genus Brisaster in Patagonia must be restricted to the Early Miocene. Rev. Biol.

The architecture of Permian glossopterid ovuliferous reproductive organs. Alcheringa 43, 480–510. ISSN 0311-5518 A historical account of research on glossopterid ovuliferous reproductive structures reveals starkly contrasting interpretations of their architecture and homologies from the earliest investigations. The diversity of interpretations has led to the establishment of a multitude of genera for these fossil organs, many of the taxa being synonymous. We identify a need for taxonomic revision of these genera to clearly demarcate taxa before they can be used effectively as palaeobiogeographic or biostratigraphic indices. Our assessment of fructification features based on extensive studies of adpression and permineralized fossils reveals that many of the character states for glossopterids used in previous phylogenetic analyses are erroneous.

The ca 140 m long section consists of a siliciclastic lower part and a carbonate-dominated upper part. This corresponds to a general transgression/regression cycle. In all, 27 different echinoid taxa were recognised. The level of taxonomic identification varies depending on test completeness and preservation of specific morphological characters. The palaeoecology of the echinoids was inferred using a functional morphological approach and actualistic comparisons. A wide variety of ecological habitats are represented with the presence of regular as well as irregular sea urchins; epibenthic as well as endobenthic forms, as well as a wide range of interpreted burrowing depths for different irregular echinoids. Seven different echinoid assemblages were distinguished, which differ with respect to the species diversity, skeletal taphonomy and sedimentary environment: (1) the Parascutella Assemblage displays spectacular mass

  • Miocene Scutellina (Echinoidea) from the Northern Part of the Western Desert, Egypt
    Cainozoic Research, 14(2), pp. 119-134, December 2014 119 Miocene Scutellina (Echinoidea) from the northern part of the Western Desert, Egypt Mohamed Said M. Ali Department of Geology, Faculty of Science, Minia University, Minia, Egypt; email: [email protected] Received 12 August 2014, revised version accepted 10 October 2014 Six Scutella, one Parascutella and three Amphiope species are recorded from four Miocene (Burdigalian and Langhian-Serravallian) sections: Gebel West El Migahhiz, Gebel El Takrur (Siwa Oasis), Wadi Um El Ashtan (Mersa Matruh) and Wadi Aqrab (El Salum), all in the northern part of the Western Desert of Egypt. These species are Scutella aegyptiaca Ali, S. ammonis Fuchs, S. checchiae Desio, S. conica Ali, S. robecchibricchettii Desio, S. rostrata Fuchs, Parascutella stefaninii (Desio), Amphiope miocenica Ali, A. arcuata Fuchs, and A. fuchsi Fourtau. Considering Durham’s diagnosis of the genus Scutella: ‘periproct located midway between the peristome and the posterior margin of the test’, all the species described from the Central Paratethys (Vienna Basin, Hungary, Poland, Romania, Austria and Ukraine) and referred to Scutella by earlier authors appear to be congeneric with either Parascutella (periproct submarginal). This means that no occurrences of the genus Scutella in the Central Paratethys during Miocene times are known to date. KEY WORDS: Siwa Oasis, Mersa Matruh, El Salum, Scutella, Parascutella, Amphiope, Paratethys. Introduction Amphiope from the middle Miocene of the Siwa Oasis, Scutella ammonis, S. rostrata, Amphiope truncata and A. The Miocene rocks in the northern part of the Western arcuata. Gregory (1898, p. 153) described Scutella sub- Desert of Egypt have yielded a well-preserved echinoid rotunda var.
