Pissis, que mencionou o encontro de restos fósseis em calcários nos arredores da cidade de Tietê, que não lhe permitiram identi- ficação, coube a Richard Rathbun a constatação de tratar-se de material relativo a répteis. Com isto, ao final do século XX, completaram-se cento e cinqüenta anos de estudos e pesquisas no campo fossilífero no Estado de São Paulo, o que se constitui num marco. O Dr. Sérgio Mezzalira, com seu ingresso no quadro de pesquisa- dores do IG em 1946, reestruturou o acervo de fósseis e iniciou a organização de obras de referência no campo fossilífero do Estado, efetuando pesquisas históricas e bibliográficas. Como frutos publicou os seguintes trabalhos: Mezzalira, S. 1947. Resumo histórico das pesquisas paleontológicas no Bra- sil no período 1939-1946.

  • <I>Argyrotheca Bermudana</I>
    BULLETIN OF MARINE SCIENCE, 25(2): 186-204,1975 ECOLOGICAL OBSERVATIONS ON THE RECENT ARTICULATE BRACHIOPOD ARGYROTHECA BERMUDANA DALL FROM THE BERMUDA PLATFORM Alan Logan ABSTRACT The occurrence and life habits of Ihe diminutive articulate brachiopod Argyro/Izeca bermu- dalla have been investigated along a general NW-SE traverse across the Bermuda Platform, in- corporating all seven biotopes recognized by Upchurch (1970). Sediment samples indicate that brachiopod tests comprise a consistent though minor « 1%) fraction in reefal shoal sediments, but are totally absent from lagoonal sediments. Preliminary transects reveal that in the reef-front terrace, north reef and central and south reef biotopes, A. bermudalla is cryptic in habit, occurring on the undersides of the foliaceous hermatypic corals MOil/as/rea cavernosa (L.), M. annularis (Ellis and Solander), and Agaricia fragilis Dana. The main host coral for brachiopods on the south shore reefs and associated reef-front terrace is M. cavemosa, on the north reef-front terrace, north and central reefs it is M. anllularis, while A. fragilis is more important on the lagoonal and near-shore reefs. Brachiopod densities generally decrease shorewards from the edge of the Platform. The distribution and density of brachiopods appears to be controlled primarily by the relative abundance of the host corals and their growth form, although other limiting factors may be at work. Clumped distributions are common, probably the result of brooded larvae and in- tense competition for living space. Inter-island areas such as Castle Harbor and Harrington Sound are virtually devoid of brachiopods, although a relict population exists marginally in an unusual sub-boulder habitat in land-locked Walsingham Pond.

Santa Marta. Colombia. * [email protected] Recibido: 28-02-2011; Aceptado: 11-05-2011 Abstract Recruitment, defined and measured as the incorporation of new individuals (i.e. coral juveniles) into a population, is a fundamental process for ecologists, evolutionists and conservationists due to its direct effect on population structure and function. Because most coral populations are self-feeding, a breakdown in recruitment would lead to local extinction. Recruitment indirectly affects both renewal and maintenance of existing and future coral communities, coral reef biodiversity (bottom-up effect) and therefore coral reef resilience. This process has been used as an indirect measure of individual reproductive success (fitness) and is the final stage of larval dispersal leading to population connectivity. As a result, recruitment has been proposed as an indicator of coral-reef health in marine protected areas, as well as a central aspect of the decision-making process concerning management and conservation.

This is the second time that the International Symposium on Ostracoda has been held in Germany, following the 5th International Symposium in Hamburg in 1974. The relative importance of Ostracodology - the science that studies Ostracoda - in Germany is further highlighted by well-known names such as G.W. Müller, Klie, Triebel and Helmdach, and others who stand for the long tradition of research on Ostracoda in Germany. During our symposium in Berlin more than 150 participants from 36 countries will meet to discuss all aspects of living and fossil Ostracoda. We hope that the scientific communities working on the biology and palaeontology of Ostracoda will benefit from interesting talks and inspiring discussions - in accordance with the symposium's theme: Ostracodology - linking bio- and geosciences We wish every participant a successful symposium and a pleasant stay in Berlin Berlin, July 27th 2005 Michael Schudack and Steffen Mischke CONTENT Schudack, M. and Mischke, S.: Preface

SUMMARY: The present-day brachiopods from the Mediterranean Sea were thoroughly described by nineteenth-century workers, to the extent that Logan’s revision in 1979 listed the same 11 species as Davidson, almost 100 years earlier. Since then recent discoveries, mainly from cave habitats inaccessible to early workers, have increased the number of species to 14. The validity of additional forms, which are either contentious or based on scanty evidence, is evaluated here. Preferred substrates and approximate bio-depth zones of all species are given and their usefulness for paleoecological reconstruction is discussed. A previous dearth of material from the eastern Mediterranean has now been at least partially remedied by new records from the coasts of Cyprus, Israel, Egypt, and, in particular, Lebanon and the southern Aegean Sea. While 11 species (79 % of the whole fauna) have now been recorded from the eastern basin, Terebratulina retusa, Argyrotheca cistellula, Megathiris detruncata and Platidia spp.

Central Paratethyan Middle Miocene brachiopods from Poland, Hungary and Romania in the Naturalis Biodiversity Center (Leiden, the Netherlands). Scripta Geologica, 149: 185-211, 1 fig., 4 pls., Leiden, August 2015. Alfréd Dulai, Department of Palaeontology and Geology, Hungarian Natural History Museum, H-1431, Budapest, P.O.B. 137, Hungary ([email protected]) Key words – Badenian, Lingula, Discinisca, Discradisca, Cryptopora, Gryphus, Argyrotheca, Joania, Megerlia. The world-famous collection of Naturalis Biodiversity Center in Leiden contains abundant fossil ma- terial, including brachiopods from the Central Paratethys (nine collecting sites from Poland, and one locality each from Hungary and Romania). More than 1400 (partly fragmentary) brachiopod speci- mens represent nine species of eight genera: Lingula cf. dregeri Andreae, Discinisca leopolitana (Fried- berg), Discradisca polonica (Radwańska & Radwański), Cryptopora nysti (Davidson), Gryphus cf. miocae- nicus (Michelotti), Argyrotheca cuneata (Risso), A. bitnerae Dulai, Joania cordata (Risso) and Megerlia sp. Most of the identified species are already known from the Central Paratethys, but the Leiden collec- tion contains a new Argyrotheca species (A. bitnerae), which was described recently in a separate paper (on the basis of more material, but including also Naturalis specimens). Most of the studied brachio- pods confirm earlier records known from the literature, but in some cases important new information is available on the distribution of the identified taxa within the Central Paratethys. These are, respec- tively, the first record of Discinisca leopolitana from Rybnica and Monastyrz, the genus Gryphus from Rybnica and from the Miocene of Poland, Argyrotheca bitnerae from Karsy, and Joania cordata from Várpalota.

  • The Earliest Diverging Extant Scleractinian Corals Recovered by Mitochondrial Genomes Isabela G
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN The earliest diverging extant scleractinian corals recovered by mitochondrial genomes Isabela G. L. Seiblitz1,2*, Kátia C. C. Capel2, Jarosław Stolarski3, Zheng Bin Randolph Quek4, Danwei Huang4,5 & Marcelo V. Kitahara1,2 Evolutionary reconstructions of scleractinian corals have a discrepant proportion of zooxanthellate reef-building species in relation to their azooxanthellate deep-sea counterparts. In particular, the earliest diverging “Basal” lineage remains poorly studied compared to “Robust” and “Complex” corals. The lack of data from corals other than reef-building species impairs a broader understanding of scleractinian evolution. Here, based on complete mitogenomes, the early onset of azooxanthellate corals is explored focusing on one of the most morphologically distinct families, Micrabaciidae. Sequenced on both Illumina and Sanger platforms, mitogenomes of four micrabaciids range from 19,048 to 19,542 bp and have gene content and order similar to the majority of scleractinians. Phylogenies containing all mitochondrial genes confrm the monophyly of Micrabaciidae as a sister group to the rest of Scleractinia. This topology not only corroborates the hypothesis of a solitary and azooxanthellate ancestor for the order, but also agrees with the unique skeletal microstructure previously found in the family.
