  • The Jurassic Pleurotomarioidean Gastropod Laevitomaria and Its Palaeobiogeographical History
    The Jurassic pleurotomarioidean gastropod Laevitomaria and its palaeobiogeographical history ROBERTO GATTO, STEFANO MONARI, JÁNOS SZABÓ, and MARIA ALESSANDRA CONTI Gatto, R., Monari, S., Szabó, J., and Conti, M.A. 2015. The Jurassic pleurotomarioidean gastropod Laevitomaria and its palaeobiogeographical history. Acta Palaeontologica Polonica 60 (1): 217–233. The genus Laevitomaria is reviewed and its palaeobiogeographical history is reconstructed based on the re-examination of its type species L. problematica, the study of material stored at the National Natural History Museum of Luxembourg, and an extensive review of the literature. The systematic study allows ascribing to Laevitomaria a number of Jurassic species from the western European region formerly included in other pleurotomariid genera. The following new combi- nations are proposed: Laevitomaria allionta, L. amyntas, L. angulba, L. asurai, L. daityai, L. fasciata, L. gyroplata, L. isarensis, L. joannis, L. repeliniana, L. stoddarti, L. subplatyspira, and L. zonata. The genus, which was once considered as endemic of the central part of the western Tethys, shows an evolutionary and palaeogeographical history consider- ably more complex than previously assumed. It first appeared in the Late Sinemurian in the northern belt of the central western Tethys involved in the Neotethyan rifting, where it experienced a first radiation followed by an abrupt decline of diversity in the Toarcian. Species diversity increased again during Toarcian–Aalenian times in the southernmost part of western European shelf and a major radiation occurred during the Middle Aalenian to Early Bajocian in the northern Paris Basin and southern England. After a latest Bajocian collapse of diversity, Laevitomaria disappeared from both the central part of western Tethys and the European shelf.

  • 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 Gómez-Alba palaeontological collection of the MGB-MCNB. We present the catalogue of the palaeontological collection belonging to the late Dr. Julio Gómez-Alba, former curator of Palaeontology at Barcelona’s Museum of Geology, now integrated in Barcelona’s Natural History Museum Consortium. He proposed the donation of his collection to the city of Barcelona in November 2010 and the Barcelona’s Institute of Culture (ICUB) accepted it on the 11th February 2011. Formed by 4.990 specimens and 25 batches, it is not the col- lection of a palaeontological researcher but that of a general palaeontologist. Many items in this collection were figured in a field guide authored by Gómez-Alba (1988) dealing with the fossils of Spain and Europe. The catalogue is, apart from some minor corrections, the literal transcription of the database originally associated to the collection that –since its acceptation– has neither been updated nor revised.

Ci€mcias da Terra Centro de Geociencias Universidade de Coimbra 3049-Coimbra Codex, Portugal 3Dept. de Estratigrafia y Paleontologia Facultad de Ciencias Universidad de Granada 18071 Granada, Spain Abstract Several hundred Aalenian Tmetoceras from the Iberian Peninsula (N Lusitanian Basin, As­ turias, Basque-Cantabrian Basin, NE Cameros, NW Iberian Basin, Aragonese Platform, Tortosa Platform, Castilian Platform, Majorca and Betic Basin) have been reviewed. Two species of Aalenian Tmetoceras have been identified on the basis of morphological, bio­ chronological and palaeobiogeographical data: T. scissum and T. regleyi. T. scissum was dominant among the Tmetoceras populations developed in the Betic and Lusitanian basins during Opalinum, Murchisonae and Bradfordensis biochrons. Popu­ lations coniposed by evolute individuals of T. scissum inhabited shelfal or oceanic envi­ ronments. A chronocline, from rectiradiate and primitive forms to flexicostate and derived forms, can be recognized in these populations of T. scissum. In contrast, shallow epiconti­ nental platforms were inhabited by involute individuals of T. regleyi. This second species was phyletically derived from T. scissum, representing an adaptive radiation from popula­ tions of shelfal or oceanic basins to populations of epicontinental platforms.

  • A Key Interval in the Early Mesozoic Phytoplankton Radiation
    1 The Bajocian (Middle Jurassic): a key interval in the early Mesozoic phytoplankton radiation 2 3 Nickolas J. Wiggan a.b*, James B. Riding b, Robert A. Fensome c, Emanuela Mattioli d 4 5 Insert addresses here 6 7 ABSTRACT 8 Dinoflagellates and coccolithophores are two of the most important groups of phytoplankton 9 in the modern oceans. These groups originated in the Triassic and radiated through the early 10 Mesozoic, rising to ecological prominence. Within this long-term radiation, important short- 11 term intervals of evolutionary and ecological change can be recognised. The Bajocian 12 (Middle Jurassic, ~170–168 Ma) was characterised by an important ecological transition 13 within the coccolithophores, and the radiation of one of the principal families of cyst-forming 14 dinoflagellates, the Gonyaulacaceae. During the Early Bajocian, the coccolith genus 15 Watznaueria diversified and expanded ecologically to dominate coccolith floras, a situation 16 which continued for the remainder of the Mesozoic. This pattern was paralleled within 17 dinoflagellate cyst floras by the ecological dominance of the genus Dissiliodinium in the mid- 18 palaeolatitudes. These phenomena appear to be linked to a positive carbon isotope shift, and 19 an interval of enhanced productivity driven by a shift to a more humid climate, enhanced 20 continental weathering and nutrient flux. The latest Early Bajocian to earliest Bathonian was 21 then characterised by the rapid increase in diversity of dinoflagellate cysts within the family 22 Gonyaulacaceae. Through this interval, the Gonyaulacaceae transitioned from being a 23 relatively minor component of dinoflagellate cyst floras, to becoming one of the prominent 24 groups of cyst-forming dinoflagellates, which has persisted to the Holocene.

  • Integrated Biostratigraphy Across the Aalenian/Bajocian Boundary of the Central High Atlas, Morocco
    Volumina Jurassica, 2015, Xiii (1): 27–42 Doi: 10.5604/17313708 .1148554 Integrated biostratigraphy across the Aalenian/Bajocian boundary of the Central High Atlas, Morocco Driss SADKI 1 Key words: Aalenian/Bajocian boundary, Central High Atlas, Morocco, integrated biostratigraphy. Abstract. This work presents an integrated biostratigraphic study across the Aalenian/Bajocian boundary of the Central High Atlas of Morocco. The data that are the basis for this study were obtained from the region of Rich that is located in the center of the basin of the Moroccan High Atlas. This region presents a thick Aalenian–Bajocian succession with continuous marine sedimentation, which offers a rich and varied fauna whose analysis enables the compilation of an integrated biostratigraphy based on the different paleontological groups: ammonites, belemnites, brachiopods, bivalves, gastropods, calcareous nanno- fossils, foraminifera and ostracods. INTRODUCTION AMMONITES The Rich area, situated in the center of the basin of High The succession of ammonite faunas in the interval across Moroccan Atlas (Fig. 1), presents a thick Aalenian–Bajocian the Aalenian/Bajocian boundary, shows (Fig. 2) six succes- succession with continuous marine sedimentation, which of- sive assemblages (Sadki, Elmi, 1991), sometimes dominated fers rich and varied fossils.

  • The Graphoceratid Ammonite Succession in the Aalenian and Lowest Bajocian (Middle Jurassic) at Horn Park, Dorset, UK ROBERT B
    The Graphoceratid Ammonite Succession in the Aalenian and lowest Bajocian (Middle Jurassic) at Horn Park, Dorset, UK ROBERT B. CHANDLER Riddlesdown High School, Purley, Surrey, CR8 lEX Summary In 1990 Callomon and Chandler set out a scheme of 16 faunal horizons for the Aalenian-Lower Bajocian of Dorset and Somerset based principally on graphoceratid ammonites. One locality, Horn Park, stands apart in displaying strata from almost all the horizons identified in that work. Yet little material from it has ever been figured. Here a section is given together with exhaustive tables of existing nominal morphospecies collected at each level and with figures that allow the variability of the suc- cessive, probably in most cases, monobiospecific assemblages to be assessed. A revised generic classification of the Graphoceratidae is presented. them precludes almost any satisfactory discussion of phyletic relationships and hence of the overall evolution The highly discontinuous, condensed and rapidly of the group. varying development of the Inferior Oolite in southern England was first perceived by S.S. Buckman (e.g. 1891, The biostratigraphy of the Graphoceratidae has now 1893, 1910) during his attempts to correlate sections by been rather well documented, for example by Rocha et means of ammonites. Leading amongst these in al.

In Britain, Morton (1990; 1994) and Morton Leioceras, Ludwigia, Brasilia, Graphoceras and and Hudson (1995) have described the succession in Hyperlioceras.
