KOLLMANN (With 1 text-figure and 6 plates) (Manuscript submitted on December 19th 2001, the revised manuscript on Januray 31st 2002) Abstract This paper gives a synopsis and systematic revision of Lower Cretaceous gastropods of the Helvetic Zone in Vorarlberg, Austria. All investigated specimens are parts of public collections. Besides types and refe- rence specimens, hitherto scientifically not investigated material is documented and mostly figured. The assemblage of the Upper Valanginan to Lower Hauterivian Kieselkalk Formation (mainly Gemsmättli Member) yielded 18 taxa. From the Barremian to Early Aptian Schrattenkalk Formation, 13 taxa are described, whereas 2 taxa stem from the Aptian Luitere Bed of the Gams Formation and 14 taxa from the Albian Garschella Formation. Due to the poor preservation, many taxa are specifically indeterminable. The assemblages closely resemble contemporary ones of the Swiss Jura, the Haute Savoie and the Anglo- Parisian Basin. Two new species are introduced: Pyrgotrochus concavus (fam. Pleurotomariidae) and Pseudonerinea vaceki (fam. Ceritellidae). Zusammenfassung Aus der Unterkreide des Helvetikums von Vorarlberg beschriebene, in Fossillisten erwähnte und bisher unbeschriebene Gastropodentaxa aus öffentlichen Sammlungen werden systematisch revidiert, beschrieben und größtenteils abgebildet. -

Guidebook to the Geology of Travis County.Pdf (4.815Mb)
Page | 1 Guidebook to the Geology of Travis County: Preface Geology of the Austin Area, Travis County, Texas Keith Young When Robert T. Hill first came to Austin, Texas, as the first professor of geology, he described Austin and its surrounding area as an ideal site for a school of geology because it offered such varied outcrops representing rocks of many ages and varieties. Although Hill resigned his position about 85 years ago, the opportunities of the local geology have not changed. Hill (Hill, 1889) implies the intent of writing a series of papers to describe the geology of the local area for all who might be interested. The authors of this volume hope that they have fulfilled in large measure Hill's original intent. No product can ever be all things to all users, but we have presented here common geological phenomenon for many, including the description of an ancient volcano, the description of faulting that occurred in the Austin area in the past, a geologic history of the Austin area, a description of the local rocks, including their classification, field trips for interested observers of the geologic scene, collecting localities for the lovers of fossils, and resource places and agencies. We cannot emphasize enough that many unique geological phenomena are on private property. Please do not trespass, obtain permission. And if permission is not granted, observe from a distance. There are sufficient areas of geologic interest in the Austin area to please all without antagonizing landowners and making it even more difficult for the next person.

A Systematic Palaeontology

ABDULSAMAD 2 and Mohamed Fouad ALY 3 1 Geology Department, Faculty of Science, Benha University, [email protected] 2 Earth Sciences Department, Faculty of Science, Benghazi University, P. O. Box: 9480, Benghazi, Libya, [email protected] 3 Geology Department, Faculty of Science, Cairo University, [email protected] ABSTRACT Forty nine macrofossil species and subspecies have been identified, systematically described, and discussed in detail. They have been collected from five Upper Cretaceous stratigraphic sections exposed at Jardas al'Abid area, Al Jabal Al Akadar, NE Libya. The studied fauna are belonging to Mollusca (Bivalvia, Gastropoda, and Cephalopoda) and Echinoidea. Bivalves constitute the main bulk of the taxa, being represented by 30 species and subspecies belonging to 24 genera. The gastropods comprise 11 species belonging to 10 genera, the cephalopods (ammonites) are 4 species belong to 4 genera, and the echinoids are 4 species belong to 3 genera. Among the prementioned fauna 19 species were recorded for the first time from Libya. Key words: Macrofossils,Upper Cretaceous,Al Jabal Al Akhadar, Libya. INTRODUCTION The Upper Cretaceous sequence of the Jardas al'Abid area is fairly rich in marine invertebrates. Bivalves are considered the most abundant macrofossils among the various macrofossil groups, especially the oysters which are very abundant in the Cenomanian Qasr al'Abid Formation. Echinoids and gastropods represent the second abundant faunal elements. The ammonites are of subordinate occurrence and characterize the lower part of Al Baniyah Formation as well as the Al Majahir Formation. -
The Roles of Mass Extinction and Biotic Interaction in Large-Scale Replacements: a Reexamination Using the Fossil Record of Stromboidean Gastropods
Paleobiology, 22(3), 1996, pp. 436-452 The roles of mass extinction and biotic interaction in large-scale replacements: a reexamination using the fossil record of stromboidean gastropods Kaustuv Roy Abstract.-The macroevolutionary processes underlying large-scale biotic replacements are still poorly understood. Opinion remains divided regarding the roles of mass extinction, biotic inter- action, and environmental perturbations in these replacement events. Previous attempts to test re- placement hypotheses have largely focused on taxonomic diversity patterns. Taxonomic data alone, however, provide little insight about ecological interactions and hence other approaches are needed to understand mechanics of biotic replacements. Here I propose a conceptual model of replacement based on predation-mediated biotic interactions, and attempt a test using analysis of the Cenozoic replacement of the gastropod family Aporrhaidae by a closely related group, the Strombidae. Taxonomic, morphologic, and geographic data analyzed in this study all suggest a replacement of aporrhaids by strombids following the end-Cretaceous mass extinction. While most of the tax- onomic replacement was associated with a mass extinction, some replacement also occurred during background times and was mediated by higher origination rates in strombids rather than by higher extinction rates in aporrhaids. Morphologically, the replacement was largely confined to the portion of the morphospace unaffected by the end-Cretaceous extinction. At a global scale, the geographic overlap between the two groups declined through the Cenozoic, reflecting increasing restriction of aporrhaids to colder, temperate waters while strombids flourished in the tropics. However, at a finer geographic scale a more mosaic pattern of replacement is evident and coincides with Eocene and Oligocene climatic fluctuations. -
