New Plants from the Lower Devonian Pingyipu Group, Jiangyou County, Sichuan Province, China
Descriptions of Lower Devonian plants from Yunnan, South China, have revolutionized concepts of diversity and disparity in tracheophytes soon after they became established on land. Sichuan assemblages have received little attention since their discovery almost 25 years ago and require revision. With this objective, fieldwork involving detailed logging and collection of fossils was undertaken in...
متن کاملUPPER DEVONIAN ACRITARCHS AND MIOSPORES FROM THE GEIRUD FORMATION IN CENTRAL ALBORZ RANGE, NORTHERN IRAN
The Geirud Formation consists mainly of clastic sediments which are interbedded with limestone stringers. This rock unit is well-exposed along the Central Alborz Range in northern Iran. The Geirud Formation rests unconformably on the Mila Formation (Upper Cambrian) and is conformably overlain by the Mobarak Formation (Lower Carboniferous). This study was undertaken to determine the geologi...
متن کاملPaleomagnetic results from the Lower Devonian Llandstadwell Formation, Dyfed, Wales
Steams, C. and Van der Voo, R., 1987. Paleomagnetic results from the Lower Devonian Llandstadwell Formation, Dyfed, Wales. Tectonophysics, 143: 329-334. A paleomagnetic investigation of the Lower Devonian Llandstadwell Eormation in southwest Wales has yielded a characteristic direction (declination = 196’. inclination = 5’) that passes a fold test. Comparison of the corresponding virtual geomag...
متن کاملA cyanolichen from the Lower Devonian Rhynie chert.
The 400 million-year-old Rhynie chert has provided a wealth of information about various types of fungal interactions that existed in this Early Devonian paleoecosystem. In this paper we report the first unequivocal evidence of a lichen symbiosis from the Rhynie chert. Specimens of a new genus, Winfrenatia, consist of a thallus of superimposed layers of aseptate hyphae and, on the upper surface...
متن کاملGlyptolepis from the Middle Devonian of Scotland
The Rhipidistia (Osteichthyes, Crossopterygii) comprise three superfamilies of Paleozoic fossil fishes, the Holoptychoidea, Osteolepoidea and Rhizodontoidea. Of these the members of the Holoptychoidea (families Holoptychidae and Porolepidae) are by far the least well known, and consequently there exists a considerable gap in our knowledge of the evolution of the Rhipidistia as a whole. The aim ...
