G. ARTHUR COOPER SMITHSONIAN CONTRIBUTIONS TO PALEOBIOLOGY • NUMBER 65 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 Anthropotogy Smithsonian Contributions to Astrophysics Smithsonian Contributions to Botany Smithsonian Contributions to the Earth Sciences Smithsonian Contributions to the h/larine 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 worid. 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. -

Systematics of the Middle Jurassic Heteromorphic Ammonites
UDC 564. 53 . 01 SYSTEMATICS OF THE MIDDLE JURASSIC HETEROMORPHIC AMMONITES N. V. Besnosov and V. V. Kutuzova All-Union Scientific Research Petroleum Geologic Exploration Institute (VSEGEI) ABSTRACT: The stratigraphic distribution, phylogenetic relationships, and systema tics of the Middle Jurassic heteromorphic ammonites and their relationship to the monomorphic ammonites are considered. Sulcohamitoides gen. nov. and Ga�antiana as a�jani sp. nov. are described. * * * The vast majority of Middle Jurassic heteromorphic ammonites are shells with a spiral developing early in one plane, all the way to the formation of a straight tube in the outer part of the phragmocone and in the living chamber. They are also characterized by reduction of the U and I lobes in ontogenesis, manifested to a greater or lesser degree, and by only slight dissection of their lobes and saddles. The following generic names of the Jurassic heteromorphs are given in the lite rature. A�cuce�as Potonie, 1929, for which the family Arcuceratidae Arkell, 1950 has been proposed. This genus is based on a single species, A. ma�thae Potonie, from the Pliensbachian of Germany, the only specimen of which has been lost. Repeated searches at the type locality have been unsuccessful. It has been suggested that the dating is erroneous, or that the species and genus are based not on a heteromor phic ammonite, but on acrinoid stem. Apso��oce�as Hyatt, 1900, occurs in the lower half of the subfu�catum zone of the Upper-Bajocian and has usually been combined with Spi�oce�as Quenstedt, 1858, from which it differs in its less reduced U and I lobes and its finer sculpture. -
"Subfurcaten-Schichten" (Bajocium, Niortense-Zone) in Nordwestdeutschland
Osnabrücker naturwiss. Mitt. 5Abb.,4Taf. Osnabrück, Dez. 1992 Die Faunenhorizonte der "Subfurcaten-Schichten" (Bajocium, Niortense-Zone) in Nordwestdeutschland mit5 Abbildungen und 4 Tafeln Matthias Metz' Kurzfassung: Aufgrund neuer Aufschlüsse der "Subfurcaten-Schichten" (Bajocium, Niortense- Zone) in Nordwestdeutschland ist es möglich, die Schichtenfolge in Ammonitenfaunen-Horizonte zu untergliedern. Eine paläontologische Revision der Ammonitengattung Strenoceras HYATTmit den Untergattungen Strenoceras HYATT(m) und Garantiana HYATT(M) wird durchgeführt. [The faunal horizons of the "Subfurcaten-Schichten" (Bajocian, Niortense-Zone) in Northwest Germany) Abstract: Because of new exposures in the "Subfurcaten-Schichten" (Bajocian, Niortense- Zone) in Northwest Germany it is possible to subdivide the sequence in ammonite faunal hori- zons. A palaeontological revision of the genus Strenoceras HYATTwith the subgenus Strenoceras HYATT(m) and Garantiana HYATT(M) is executed. 1 Einleitung und historischer Überblick U Die ersten Hinweise auf die .Bifurcaten-Schichten" (= "Subfurcaten-Schichten ) fin- den sich bereits in den Veröffentlichungen von TRENKNER(1872; 1877) und POELMANN (1912) über die Juravorkommen in Osnabrück-Hellern. Im Wiehengebirge konnten LOHMANN(1909) bei Bad Essen und v. SEE (1910) an der Porta Westfalica die Schich- ten ebenfalls nachweisen. Der Begriff "Schichten oder Zone der Parkinsonia subturcete" wurde erstmals von SCHROEDER(1905) verwendet, der zahlreiche Vorkommen in Nordwestdeutschland beschrieb. Die paläontologische Erforschung ihrer Ammonitenfauna wurde von MAscKE (1907) und BENTZ (1924) mit dem aus dem Brauneisenoolith-Bergbau von Lindenbruch und Harlingerode (Harz-Vorland) gewonnenen Ammonitenmaterial begonnen. Demgegenüber sind die "Subfurcaten-SchichtenU im Bereich des Teuto- burger Waldes in toniger Fazies ausgebildet. Die wichtigsten Aufschlüsse waren die Tongruben von Bielefeld-Bethel (heute verfüllt). ALTHoFF (1914; 1922; 1928; 1938) veröffentlichte zahlreiche Profilaufnahmen. -
Mechanics Unlocks the Morphogenetic Puzzle of Interlocking Bivalved Shells

Rice, Texas Tech University, Lubbock, TX, and accepted by Editorial Board Member David Jablonski November 11, 2019 (received for review September 24, 2019) Brachiopods and mollusks are 2 shell-bearing phyla that diverged tal events causing shell injuries. Yet, in all cases the interlocking from a common shell-less ancestor more than 540 million years ago. of the 2 shell edges is tightly maintained. These observations Brachiopods and bivalve mollusks have also convergently evolved imply that the interlocking pattern emerges as the result of epi- a bivalved shell that displays an apparently mundane, yet strik- genetic interactions modulating the behavior of the secreting ing feature from a developmental point of view: When the shell mantle during shell development. is closed, the 2 valve edges meet each other in a commissure that Here, we provide a geometric and mechanical explanation forms a continuum with no gaps or overlaps despite the fact that for this morphological trait based on a detailed analysis of the each valve, secreted by 2 mantle lobes, may present antisymmet- shell geometry during growth and the physical interaction of the ric ornamental patterns of varying regularity and size. Interlock- shell-secreting soft mantle with both the rigid shell edge and ing is maintained throughout the entirety of development, even the opposing mantle lobe. -

E-mail : [email protected] Résumé Les collections du Musée de Gaillac renferment un important fond de fossiles provenant du Jurassique de Normandie. Ceux-ci furent recueillis à la fin du 19ème siècle par le Dr. Philadelphe Thomas profitant de ses bonnes relations avec le paléontologue normand Eugène Eudes-Deslongchamps. On y trouve en particulier un important lot de Brachiopodes déterminés et étiquetés par cet éminent spécialiste des Brachiopodes jurassiques. La disparition de la collection originale du Musée de Caen sous les bombes des alliés en 1944 en fait toute la valeur car les collections du Musée de Gaillac renferment un certain nombre de topotypes (ou néotypes) éventuels. La présente publication donne une brève description des espèces de Brachiopodes jurassiques conservées à Gaillac. Ces descriptions sont précédées d’une synonymie précisant la diagnose originale de chaque espèce, ainsi que la référence à une récente publication, ce qui permet au lecteur de retrouver toutes les données relatives à ces espèces (variabilité morphologique, caractères internes, âges et répartitions géographiques, principales figurations par les auteurs successifs). -

Mittaa, b, * aBorissiak Paleontological Institute, Russian Academy of Sciences, Moscow, 117647 Russia bCherepovets State University, Cherepovets, 162600 Russia *e-mail: [email protected] Received March 12, 2019; revised March 29, 2019; accepted April 1, 2019 Abstract—This paper presents the results of the study of the Upper Bajocian Garantiana garantiana Zone (Middle Jurassic) and characteristic ammonites in sections of the basin of the Kuban River (Karachay-Cher- kessia). The assemblage contains species of the genera Garantiana, Pseudogarantiana, Paragarantiana, Djanaliparkinsonia (all family Stephanoceratidae) and Vermisphinctes (family Perisphinctidae). A section of the Garantiana Zone on the Kyafar River contains (from bottom to top) Beds with Djanaliparkinsonia alanica (also recognized on the Kuban River), Beds with Garantiana subgaranti and Beds with Paragarantiana, approximately corresponding to the Dichotoma, Garantiana, and Tetragona subzones of the standard scale. Garantiana subgaranti Wetzel and Vermisphinctes martiusii (d’Orbigny) are described. Prorsisphinctes Buck- man, 1921 is proposed as a junior subjective synonym of Vermisphinctes Buckman, 1920.

The Early Triassic Smithian/Spathian Boundary (SSB) crisis coincides with an episode of extreme warmth. A high resolution stratigraphic framework comprising six conodont zones is provided in Jiarong section, Nanpanjiang Basin, South China. Detailed size measurements of 441 conodont elements of the closely related genera Neospathodus, Triassospathodus and Novispathodus show for the first time that this clade suffered a temporary, but significant, size reduction during the SSB crisis. Size reduction of conodonts was probably caused by an episode of global warming. Keywords: Conodont; size variation; Early Triassic; extinction; South China. Latest Bajocian -
