Registration and booking Registration, abstract submission and booking (including payment by credit card) commences on Monday 14th July 2014. Abstract submission closes at midnight on Friday 19th September 2014; abstracts submitted after this date will not be considered. Registration after Friday 3rd October 2014 will incur an additional administration charge of £25.00. The final deadline for registration is Friday 14th November 2014. Registrations and bookings will be taken on a strictly first-come-first- served basis. No refunds will be available after the final deadline. Registration, abstract submission, booking and payment (by credit card) will be through online forms available on the Palaeontological Association website (<http://www.palass.org/>). Please note that all these transactions will be in sterling (£:GBP). Accommodation must be booked separately (see below). The cost of registration is the same as last year. Early registration is £90.00 for ordinary and retired members; £60.00 for students; and £120.00 for non-members. Registration costs include sandwich lunches on Wednesday and Thursday, the icebreaker reception on Wednesday evening, full registration package and tea/coffee from Tuesday through to Thursday. The Annual Dinner event costs £45.00. It will be held at the Leeds City Museum, which is five minutes’ walk downtown from the University. The evening’s festivities will include a drinks reception followed by a three-course meal including carvery and vegetarian option. Due to the size of the venue numbers are limited to 250. Oral presentations All speakers (apart from the symposium speakers) will be allocated 15 minutes. You should therefore prepare a 12 minute talk to allow time for questions and switching between presenters. On the second day of the meeting we are using a number of parallel sessions in adjacent theatres so timing will be especially important. All the lecture theatres will have a single A/V projector linked to a large screen (e.g. <http://www.teachingspace.leeds.ac.uk/room_details.asp?ID=1-01- 086-2486-GM-GM01>, and <http://www.teachingspace.leeds.ac.uk/room_details.asp?ID=1-01- 086-2810-10M-22>). All presentations should be submitted and checked the day before they are scheduled. The University of Leeds is PC-based, so Mac-based presentations may cause problems, particularly if animations are included. If you are using a Mac please make sure your presentation is PC compatible before you leave your institution. Poster presentations Poster boards will accommodate an A0-sized poster presented in portrait format. The boards will not be suitable for posters of this size in landscape format. Materials to fix the poster to the boards will be available at the meeting. Palaeontological Association 2 ANNUAL MEETING Venue and travel The conference will take place in the campus of the University of Leeds, which is located just to the North of Leeds city centre.

Sanders, Institut für Geologie, Universität of Innsbruck, Innrain 52, A-6020 Innsbruck, Austria; [email protected] KEY WORDS - Scleractinia, taxonomy, paleoecology, paleobiogeography. ABSTRACT - In the Werlberg Member (Rupelian pro parte) of the Paisslberg Formation (Eastern Alps), an assemblage of colonial corals of eleven species pertaining to eleven genera and eleven families was identified:Stylocoenia carryensis, Acropora lavandulina, ?Colpophyllia sp., Dendrogyra intermedia, Caulastraea pseudoflabellum, Hydnophyllia costata, Pindosmilia cf. brunni, Actinacis rollei, Pavona profunda, Agathiphyllia gregaria, and Faksephyllia faxoensis. This is the first Oligocene coral assemblage reported from the Paisslberg Formation (Werlberg Member) of the Eastern Alps, consisting exclusively of colonial forms. The assemblage represents the northernmost fauna of reefal corals reported to date for Rupelian time. The Werlberg Member accumulated during marine transgression onto a truncated succession of older carbonate rocks. The corals grew as isolated colonies and in carpets in a protected shoreface setting punctuated by high-energy events. Coral growth forms comprise massive to sublamellar forms, and branched (dendroid, ramose) forms.

On the Web: <http://www.palass.org/> ISSN: 0954-9900 Newsletter 86 2 Editorial You know you are getting pedantic when you find yourself reading the Constitution of the Palaeontological Association, but the third article does serve as a significant guide to the programme of activities the Association undertakes. The aim of the Association is to promote research in Palaeontology and its allied sciences by (a) holding public meetings for the reading of original papers and the delivery of lectures, (b) demonstration and publication, and (c) by such other means as the Council may determine. Council has taken a significant step under categories (b) and (c) above, by committing significant funds, relative to spending on research and travel, to Outreach and Education projects (see p. 27 for more details). This is a chance for the membership of the Association to explore a range of ways of widening public awareness and participation in palaeontology that is led by palaeontologists. Not by universities, not by research councils or other funding bodies with broader portfolios.

CAIRNS W9\ I SMITHSONIAN CONTRIBUTIONS TO ZOOLOGY • NUMBER 514 SERIES PUBLICATIONS OF THE SMITHSONIAN INSTITUTION Emphasis upon publication as a means of "diffusing knowledge" was expressed by the first Secretary of the Smithsonian. In his formal plan for the Institution, Joseph Henry outlined a program that included the following statement: "It is proposed to publish a series of reports, giving an account of the new discoveries in science, and of the changes made from year to year in all branches of knowledge." This theme of basic research has been adhered to through the years by thousands of titles issued in series publications under the Smithsonian imprint, commencing with Smithsonian Contributions to Knowledge in 1848 and continuing with the following active series: Smithsonian Contributions to Anthropology Smithsonian Contributions to Astrophysics Smithsonian Contributions to Botany Smithsonian Contributions to the Earth Sciences Smithsonian Contributions to the Marine Sciences Smithsonian Contributions to Paleobiology Smithsonian Contributions to Zoology Smithsonian Folklife Studies Smithsonian Studies in Air and Space Smithsonian Studies in History and Technology In these series, the Institution publishes small papers and full-scale monographs that report the research and collections of its various museums and bureaux or of professional colleagues in the world of science and scholarship. The publications are distributed by mailing lists to libraries, universities, and similar institutions throughout the world. Papers or monographs submitted for series publication are received by the Smithsonian Institution Press, subject to its own review for format and style, only through departments of the various Smithsonian museums or bureaux, where the manuscripts are given substantive review.
