New Mexico Museum of Natural History and Science, Bulletin 60. 1 THE CONODONT NEOGNATHODUS BOTHROPS MERRILL, 1972 AS THE MARKER FOR THE LOWER BOUNDARY OF THE MOSCOVIAN STAGE (MIDDLE PENNSYLVANIAN) ALEXANDER S. ALEKSEEV1 AND NATALIA V. GOREVA 2 1 Department of Paleontology, Geological Faculty, Moscow State University, Russia, email: aaleks@geol. msu.ru; 2 Geological institute of Russian Academy of Science, Moscow, Russia, email: [email protected] Abstract—The Moscovian Stage constitutes the Middle Pennsylvanian Series of the Carboniferous System, but a biostratigraphic marker and GSSP for it have not yet been designated. The exact position of the Moscovian boundary cannot be defined properly because in the type area the basal Vereian unconformably overlies the Mississippian limestone or the alluvial and lagoonal Aza Formation of the uppermost Bashkirian. The Task Group to establish a GSSP close to the existing Bashkirian-Moscovian boundary suggested several potential markers among foraminifers and conodonts, but the search for a marker near traditional base of the global Moscovian Stage has stalled. It may be more productive to search for FADs in the lower Moscovian, above the traditional base, to designate the lower boundary of the stage. Relatively rich Vereian and Kashirian conodont assemblages have been recovered from the southwest Moscow Basin, as well as from the Oka-Tsna Swell. The most complete information on the distribution of conodonts in the Vereian- Kashirian boundary interval was obtained from the Yambirno section (Oka-Tsna Swell). The greatest change in conodont assemblages does not occur near the level of the traditional base of the Moscovian, but stratigraphically higher. -

A New Species of the Conodont Genus Siphonodella Branson & Mehl
Estonian Journal of Earth Sciences, 2017, 66, 4, 188–192 https://doi.org/10.3176/earth.2017.15 A new species of the conodont genus Siphonodella Branson & Mehl (late Tournaisian) Andrey V. Zhuravlev Institute of Geology Komi SC, UrB RAS, Pervomayskaya 54, 167000 Syktyvkar, Russia; [email protected] Received 3 April 2017, accepted 6 June 2017, available online 16 October 2017 Abstract. A new upper Tournaisian (Lower Carboniferous) siphonodellid conodont species Siphonodella carinata n. sp. is described. The material comes from the shallow-water carbonate sediments of the Pechora Swell (Timan-Pechora region or NE of European Russia). The co-occurrence of conodonts Hindeodus cristulus (Youngquist & Miller), Bispathodus stabilis (Branson & Mehl) Morphotype 1, Polygnathus longiposticus Branson & Mehl and Pseudopolygnathus nodomarginatus (Branson) suggests the late Tournaisian (Lower Siphonodella crenulata Zone) age of the deposits. Morphologically the new species is similar to Siphonodella semichatovae Kononova & Lipnjagov and S. ludmilae Zhuravlev & Plotitsyn, but differs in possessing three rostral ridges at the late stages of ontogeny and Class III symmetry. The presence of the shallow-water siphonodellids Siphonodella bella Kononova & Migdisova and S. quasinuda Gagiev, Kononova & Pazuhin in the upper part of the Tournaisian is detected for the first time. Key words: Conodonta, new species, Siphonodella carinata n. sp., Lower Carboniferous, Tournaisian. INTRODUCTION platform and a wide pseudokeel or depressed keel at the aboral side of Pa elements. Traditionally species of the genus Siphonodella are used The shallow-water siphonodellids of the Chinese for biostratigraphy of the lower part of the Tournaisian branch appeared in the earliest Tournaisian and ranged (Sandberg et al. 1978; Ji 1985; Ji & Ziegler 1992; up to the late Tournaisian (Ji & Ziegler 1992). -

E- mails: [email protected]; [email protected] Abstract A new species of Gnathodus, G. joseramoni, is defined and Gnathodus cantabricus Belka & Lehmann is revised from the study of some new conodont associations and analysis of previous data from the Cantabrian Mountains and the Pyrenees, North Iberian Peninsula. G. cantabricus is regarded as a junior synonym of Gnathodus kiensis Pazukhin from the Urals. Other occasional European findings of both taxa are indicated and stratigraphic middle Viséan to Arnsbergian ranges are established. Finally, the phylogenetic relations with other Gnathodus species are also outlined. Key words: Conodont, Systematic Palaeontology, Mississippian, Cantabrian Mountains, Pyrenees. Resumen Se define una especie nueva de Gnathodus, G. joseramoni, y se revisa a Gnathodus cantabricus Belka & Lehmann, a partir de nuevas asociaciones de conodontos y el análisis de los datos previos en la Cordillera Cantábrica y los Pirineos, Norte de la Península Ibérica. G. cantabricus se considera un taxón sinónimo más moderno que Gnathodus kiensis Pazukhin de los Urales. -

Proceedings of the Indiana Academy of Science 83 (1993) Volume 102 p. 83-91 CONODONTS FROM COAL BALLS IN THE SPRINGFIELD COAL MEMBER OF THE PETERSBURG FORMATION (DESMOINESIAN, PENNSYLVANIAN) IN SOUTHERN INDIANA Carl B. Rexroad Indiana Geological Survey 611 North Walnut Grove Bloomington, Indiana 47405 ABSTRACT: A well-preserved and moderately diverse conodont faunule was recovered from five coal balls in the Springfield Coal Member of the Petersburg Formation from Peabody Coal Com- pany's Eby Pit, Lynnville Mine, in Warrick County, Indiana. The presence of Neognathodus roundyi and the other species recorded in this study is compatible with the middle Desmoinesian age of the Springfield. Idioprioniodus conjunctus is the most ecologically diagnostic of the conodonts and suggests organic-rich, quiet water with a low pH, which in turn suggests that the conodonts lived in a salt-water marsh bordered on one side by coal swamps and on another by near-normal marine waters. Apparently coal balls had multiple origins, and the origin of the conodont-bearing ones is uncertain. INTRODUCTION Because marine fossils are commonly associated with plant fossils in some coal balls, it is not surprising that conodonts have been reported from them. A half-dozen well-pre- served conodonts from Pennsylvanian coal balls from three different States were figured by Mamay and Yochelson (1962), but no other conodonts were figured; therefore, the overall conodont content in coal balls is unknown. To better understand the distribution of conodonts and their paleoecologic impor- tance in coal balls, samples were processed from coal balls of the middle Desmoinesian Springfield Coal Member of the Petersburg Formation from the Eby Pit of Peabody Coal Company's Lynnville Mine (SW'/4 , SWA, NE'A, Sec. -

BOUCKAERT Department of Geology Service Géologique de Belgique University of Sheffield BRUXELLES IMPRIMERIE HAYEZ, s. p. r. 4, rue Fin 1968 SUMMARY The sequence of conodont faunas in the Namurian of Belgium is described and compared with faunas of the same age in North America, western Europe and Japan. The faunas exhibit major changes within the Namurian in the Chokerian {HI), Alportian (H2) and Kinderscoutian (Ri) sub-stages involving the appearance of new species and genera and the disappearance of many pre-existing ones. These changes take place at approximately the position of the Mississippian- Pennsylvanian boundary in North America. The palaeontology of these faunas is dealt with in detail and 47 species and sub-species have been recognised amongst which Angulodus simplex, Lonchodina bischoffi, Idiognathoides sulcata sulcata, Idiognathoides sulcata parva, Idiognathoides minuta, Streptognathodus lateralis and Gnathodus bilineatus bollandensis are considered new.
