辽宁西部早三叠世苏铁植物一新属--Mediocycas gen. nov.及其演化意义

报道苏铁植物大孢子叶化石一新属———中间苏铁属(Mediocycasgen.nov.)。标本采集于辽宁省西部,喀左县杨树沟煤矿后山的早三叠世红砬组。这些标本以前曾被处理为疑问化石(Problematicum)。因当时资料不足,所以没有确定属种名称。但鉴于这些化石在苏铁类早期起源与演化研究中具有重要意义,故对它们作了重新研究。文中除了以喀左中间苏铁(Mediocycaskazuoensisgen.etsp.nov.)为典型种进行描述以外,还对新属、种在苏铁类起源与演化方面的意义作了较为详细的讨论。     

SHA.LIN评分和S.T.O.N.E评分对经皮肾镜取石术结石清除率的预测价值比较

目的:比较SHA.LIN评分和S.T.O.N.E评分对经皮肾镜取石术结石清除率的预测价值。方法:选择我院于2016年1月-2017年12月期间行经皮肾镜取石术患者67例为研究对象,在术前对所有患者进行SHA.LIN评分和S.T.O.N.E评分。根据手术结果将患者分为结石清除组(n=49)和结石残留组(n=18),对两组患者的一般资料、SHA.LIN评分、S.T.O.N.E评分进行统计对比。采用多因素Logistic回归分析方法分析患者术后结石残留的影响因素。采用绘制ROC曲线的方法分析SHA.LIN评分和S.T.O.N.E评分对结石清除率的预测结果的敏感性和特异性。结果:67例患者术后结石清除者49例、结石残留者18例,结石清除率为73.13%。结石残留组患者手术时间、术中失血量、住院时间、结石最大截面积、最大累积截面积、结石解剖分布肾盂的发生率、受累肾盏数均高于结石清除组,穿刺通道长度低于结石清除组(P0.05)。结石清除组患者的SHA.LIN评分、S.T.O.N.E评分均低于结石残留组(P0.05)。经多因素Logistic回归分析显示,手术时间、术中失血量、SHA.LIN评分、S.T.O.N.E评分、受累肾盏数是结石残留的影响因素(P0.05)。通过绘制ROC曲线可知,SHA.LIN评分的敏感性为91.25%、特异性为89.12%、曲线下面积(AUC)为0.912(95%CI 0.869~0.948);S.T.O.N.E评分的敏感性为78.75%、特异性为84.24%、AUC为0.782(95%CI 0.690~0.871)。结论:经皮肾镜取石术患者结石清除率与SHA.LIN评分、S.T.O.N.E评分明显相关,两种评分系统均能预测患者的结石清除率,但SHA.LIN评分的敏感性、特异性高于S.T.O.N.E评分。

贵州南部独山地区泥盆纪弗拉期的石燕贝类腕足动物

弗拉期是了解泥盆纪弗拉-法门灭绝事件之前古代生物多样性的一个关键阶段.贵州南部的独山地区因其所具有的完整层序及丰富的底栖牛物化石成为我国主要泥盆系参考剖面之一.独山剖面弗拉期的石燕贝类腕足动物至少包括5种类型,其中4种在本文中为首次描述和图示.Conispirifer之前只发现于欧洲及北美的弗拉期地层中,目前也首次在华南独山剖面的同期地层中发现.大多先前从贵州南部其他地区弗拉期地层中描述的多种Cyrtospirifer可归于Cyrtospirifer subextensoides新种内.鉴于前人对Emanuella的模式种E.takwanensis 的内部构造描述的矛盾状况,本文暂把研究区具有抬离壳面的纤细铰窝、固着于壳面的主突起以及其前方下面为外铰板支撑的标本归于E.takwanensis.在华南弗拉期可初步识别出三个腕足动物群组合带:Yocrarhynchus-Phlogoiderhynchus动物群以小嘴贝类-无洞贝类-双腔贝类腕足动物为特征,其时代大致从弗拉阶底部至Pa.punctata带;之后为Cyrtospirifer动物群,以Cyrtospirifer的存在为特征,又可分为早晚两部分,前者(未命名)以conispiriferid类的Conispirifer和Pyramidaspirifer、弓石燕类、无洞贝类等为特征,其时代大致为Pa."hassi"带至下Pa.rhenana带;后者为Hunanotoechia动物群,以丰富的小嘴贝类-无洞贝类.弓石燕类腕足动物为特征,其时代大致为上Pa.rhenana带至Pa.1inguiformis带.     

黔南独山地区泥盆系法门阶–石炭系杜内阶革老河组 和汤粑沟组长身贝类新认知

本文描述了在黔南独山县其林寨剖面和黎家寨剖面上泥盆统革老河组和下石炭统汤粑沟组中发现的长身贝类化石共8属10种(含未定种)。其中, 在革老河组中发现有3属4种: Productella? sp.、Yanguania dushanensis、Xinshaoproductus xinshaoensis和X. quadrata; 汤粑沟组中有8属9种: Productella? sp.、Hunanoproductus hunanensis、Spinocarinifera qilinzhaiensis sp. nov.、Yanguania dushanensis、Y.? sp.、Xinshaoproductus xinshaoensis、Tomiproductus sp.、Ozora? sp.和Ericiatia kiangsuensis。总体而言, 革老河组和汤粑沟组中的长身贝类在组成上主要以Productoidea超科中Productidae科的分子为主, Productellidae科和Echinoconchoidea超科中Sentosiidae科的分子各有1种。本文记述的Hunanoproductus和Xinshaoproductus系在黔南地区首次发现, 并且Xinshaoproductus在黔南地区的首现层位低于湘中地区。常见于欧亚地区的中泥盆统吉维特阶至上泥盆统弗拉斯阶及湘中地区上泥盆统的Productella属, 在黔南地区上延到了下石炭统的汤耙沟组中, 为该属最晚的化石记录。Spinocarinifera和Tomiproductus是欧亚、北美、西澳和北非等地杜内阶或杜内阶-维宪阶中的常见分子, 汤粑沟组中发现的S. qilinzhaiensis sp. nov.则是目前已知该属在华南地区的代表。该种以近方圆形的轮廓、铰合线短、耳翼小、放射状壳线连续但微弱为特征, 区别于该属的其他种。而Tomiproductus在华南地区见于湘中刘家塘组的上部和下扬子地区的金陵组。Ozora属于美国密苏里地区维宪阶下部的代表分子, 亦见于墨西哥南部的下石炭统。如果鉴定无误, 黔南地区的发现则有可能代表了该属最早的化石记录。革老河组的长身贝类组成属种单调, 以Yanguania、Xinshaoproductus属等地方性分子为特征; 随着杜内期的海侵, 汤耙沟组中的长身贝类组成与湘中地区的更为相近, 生物多样性显著增加, 既继承了革老河组中的地方性分子, 同时在属级分类单元中也出现了一些在欧美、澳大利亚等地区的类型, 如Spinocarinifera、Tomiproductus和Ozora属。反映了从杜内期开始的海侵, 使华南地区的腕足动物群与欧美地区同时期的腕足动物群之间开始发生较为密切的生物地理区系联系。     

WUCHIAPINGIAN (LOPINGIAN, LATE PERMIAN) BRACHIOPODS FROM THE EPISKOPI FORMATION OF HYDRA ISLAND, GREECE

Abstract:  Twenty-three species of silicified brachiopods are described from four samples in the middle and upper parts of the Episkopi Formation from Hydra Island, Greece. These brachiopods are newly recorded from the region and together with previously described brachiopods from the same localities constitute the most diverse Lopingian (Late Permian) brachiopod fauna reported in southern Europe. The brachiopod fauna is Wuchiapingian as indicated by the associated conodonts. The fauna from Hydra exhibits strong palaeobiogeographical links with the faunas from South China. In addition, palaeobiogeographical affinities with the faunas of Thailand and the northern peri-Gondwanan region are also present, which implies a peri-Gondwanan origin for Hydra. Palaeoecologically, the brachiopod assemblage from sample EP in the middle part of the Episkopi Formation is dominated by pedically-attached and cementing genera and reflects moderate energy conditions above storm wave base and an abundance of hard substrates provided by sponges in the biohermal habitat. By contrast, the brachiopod assemblage in the other three samples from the upper part of the Episkopi Formation is dominated by spinose genera with a free-resting life habit, suggesting soft substrates in a quiet water environment below storm wave base on the outer part of the shelf. New taxa are Petinospiriferina gen. nov., Hustedia episkopiensis sp. nov., Waterhouseiella hydraensis sp. nov. and Xenosaria tenuis sp. nov.     

A new coral‐associated decapod assemblage from the Upper Miocene (Messinian) Upper Coralline Limestone of Malta (Central Mediterranean)

Abstract: A rich coral‐associated decapod assemblage is recorded from the ‘Depiru Beds’ of the upper part of the Upper Coralline Limestone (Messinian, Upper Miocene), from the island of Malta. Nineteen species within 17 genera have been discovered, where 14 genera are new for Malta. Four new species are described, namely Micippa annamariae sp. nov., Pilumnus scaber sp. nov., Panopeus muelleri sp. nov. and Herbstia melitense sp. nov. Herbstia melitense sp. nov. constitutes the first record of the genus from the fossil record in the Mediterranean region. This discovery more than doubles the number of known fossil decapod species from Malta. The fossil bivalve Jouannetia (J.) semicaudata Des Moulins, 1830 and the extant decapod Maja goltziana D’Oliveira, 1888, are also recorded for the first time from Malta. Other Neogene coral‐associated decapod assemblages are investigated and correlated with the new assemblage from Malta. The migration of taxa between the Mediterranean region and the Paratethys, particularly during the Lower Badenian (Langhian), is evidenced by the strong affinity of the Maltese decapod assemblage with that of the Middle Miocene Badenian assemblages from Hungary, Poland and Ukraine. Upper Miocene, Messinian assemblages from Spain, Algeria and Morocco are also similar to that from Malta.

New brachiopod species from the order acrotretida from the Cambrian of central Kazakhstan

Four new brachiopod species from the order Acrotretida (class Lingulata): Picnotreta saryarkensis sp. nov., Stilpnotreta propria sp. nov., Anabolotreta firma sp. nov., and Batenevotreta variabilis sp. nov. are described from the Agyrek Mountains, northeastern Central Kazakhstan from two olistoliths of limestones, which contain the uppermost Middle and lowermost Upper Cambrian fauna and are located in the Upper Ordovician olistostrome. These new species supplement the described earlier brachiopod assemblage from this region (Koneva and Ushatinskaya, 2008). Strong age and intraspecific variability of some Kazakh acrotretids is shown.     

ORDOVICIAN (ARENIG–CARADOC) SYNTROPHIIDINE BRACHIOPODS FROM THE EAST BALTIC REGION

Abstract:  Syntrophiidine brachiopods are a rare and poorly known component of Ordovician Baltoscandian faunas. They appear in the East Baltic in the Billingenian (lower Arenig) as part of the earliest known benthic assemblages dominated by elements of the Palaeozoic Evolutionary Fauna. These faunal assemblages usually include bryozoans, ostracodes, and the earliest known porambonitoids, strophomenides and endopunctate orthides, such as Idiostrophia and Orthidium , which later became characteristic of the Whiterockian brachiopod assemblages in Laurentia, but by that time had disappeared from Baltica. The superfamily Syntrophioidea reappears in Baltoscandia in the mid Caradoc. In contrast, Porambonitoidea remained the integral part of the Baltoscandian brachiopod associations through the Ordovician. Porambonites , herein redefined on the basis of restudy of the type species P. intermedius , includes only smooth porambonitoids; taxa with the distinctive ornament of radiating rows of pits first appeared in the group in the mid Arenig. The taxa Eoporambonites gen. nov., Tetralobula peregrina sp. nov., Idiostrophia prima sp. nov. and Idiostrophia tenuicostata sp. nov. are erected.

Oldest known Dicoelosia and Epitomyonia,deep water brachiopods from the Beiguoshan Formation (Middle Katian,Upper Ordovician), Shaanxi,north China

Abstract: A diverse brachiopod fauna from a relatively deep water carbonate facies of the Upper Ordovician Beiguoshan Formation (uppermost Caradoc – lower Ashgill, middle Katian) is characterized by small shells and contains the oldest known Dicoelosia and Epitomyonia, two diagnostic taxa of deep water brachiopod palaeocommunities during the Late Ordovician and Silurian. Three new species are recognized: Dicoelosia cordiformis sp. nov., Dicoelosia perbrevis sp. nov. and Epitomyonia fui sp. nov. These pioneer forms of the family Dicoelosiidae show a relatively high degree of morphological plasticity. The shells of Dicoelosia from the Beiguoshan Formation range from the typical slender‐lobed form with a concavoconvex profile to the strongly equibiconvex, fat‐lobed morphotype that was not known previously until the late Silurian. The Beiguoshan dicoelosiids point to an important attribute of the deep water brachiopods: small generalists with high morphological plasticity, which make them ideal candidates as progenitors for the evolution of shallow water brachiopod faunas in shelf and platform depositional environments.
