Bothriolepiform antiarchs (Placodermi, Antiarchi) are represented by two genera in the Devonian of Central Kazakhstan: Bothriolepis Eichwald (Bothriolepididae) and Tenizolepis Malinovskaja (Dianolepididae). The first includes five species: B. babichevi Malinovskaja, 1992, B. kassini Malinovskaja, 1988, B. amankonyrica Malinovskaja, 1988, B. nikitinae Malinovskaja, 1988, and B. tastenica Malinovskaja, 1988; the second includes only two valid species, T. asiatica (Obrucheva, 1955) and T. rara Malinovskaja, 1977. As type collections of bothriolepiform antiarchs of Central Kazakhstan were revised, the diagnoses were
emended and the postcranial exoskeleton was reconstructed. The classification of the order is discussed and a new family,
Tubalepididae fam. nov., is established. 相似文献

Antiarchi (Pisces, Placodermi) from the Devonian of central and southern European Russia (Central Devonian Field) are studied.
Antiarchs belong to three families, the Asterolepididae, Remigolepididae (suborder Asterolepidoidei), and Bothriolepididae
(suborder Bothriolepidoidei). The diagnoses of the order, two suborders, three families, and five genera (two of which are
new) are given. Sixteen species, including one new, are described; ten taxa are determined in open nomenclature. Morphological
structures of representatives of these families are considered in detail. Classifications of antiarchs and their position
in the system of the lower vertebrates are discussed. Devonian vertebrate localities of central and southern European Russia
that have yielded antiarchs are listed. Each locality is characterized by its ichthyoassemblage. 相似文献

A new genus and species of pachyosteomorph arthrodire, Omalosteus krutoensis gen. et sp. nov. from shallow-water marine deposits of the Evlanovo Regional Stage (Upper Frasnian, Upper Devonian) of the Central Devonian Field is described. It is tentatively referred to the family Trematosteidae Gross, 1932, which was earlier believed to be endemic to central Europe. The new genus is characterized by a rounded, dorsoventrally compressed cross section of the pectoral region and smooth head shield and postcranial membrane bones. The centrale is elongated, forming a narrow lateral lobe. The praeorbitale, postorbitale, and centrale come in contact in the center of the orbital region. The mediodorsale is wide, its carinal process projects considerably posteriorly. The anterior margin of the anterior ventrolaterale lacks articular facets for the interlaterale. 相似文献

The bothriolepidid placoderms Bothriolepis markovskii sp. nov. from the southern Ural Mountains and Bothriolepididae gen. et sp. indet. from the Kuznetsk Coal Basin are described.
The new species from the southern Ural Mountains has a high dorsal crest, resembling in this character Scottish B. cristata Traquair, Australian B. gippslandiensis Hills and B. cullodenensis Long, and B. heckeri Lukševičs from the Novgorod Region. The bothriolepidid from the Kuznetsk Coal Basin is similar to Bothriolepis from central Poland and Livnolepis from European Russia. The new finds expand the diversity and distribution of crested bothriolepidid antiarchs. Apparently,
the high bone dorsal crest developed in parallel in the exoskeleton of different both-riolepidid groups. 相似文献

Phylogenetic analyses frequently resolve the extinct group Placodermi at the base of the clade of jawed fishes (traditionally known as the Gnathostomata), with the jawless fish group Osteostraci as sister taxon to this clade. Both gnathostomes and osteostracans possess pectoral fins supported by a radial(s) articulating on a cartilaginous scapulocoracoid. Blood vessels and nerves pass by or through the scapulocoracoid to supply the musculature of the pectoral fin, and in the Osteostraci also pass through the postbranchial lamina backing the gill chamber before reaching the scapulocoracoid. This course also characterizes the placoderm group Antiarchi. Other placoderms retain the condition typical of other jawed fishes in which the scapulocoracoid, as well as the subclavian veins and arteries, are entirely posterior to the back wall of the gill chamber, lying within the internal region of the trunkshield. These observations suggest that these placoderm groups are more closely related to other jawed fishes than are the Antiarchi, challenging the monophyly of the Placodermi. 相似文献

A new camuropiscid arthrodire, Latocamurus coulthardi gen. et sp. nov., is described from the Upper Devonian Gogo Formation, Western Australia. Latocamurus , known from two complete specimens, is recognized as a camuropiscid by its narrow, spindle-shaped armour, deep postnasal plates participating in the orbits, preorbital plates which meet mesially, cheek unit firmly sutured to skull roof, posterior check plates tightly interconnected and much reduced, and the robust durophagous dentition. It is characterized by its downturned snout, broad, flat rostral plate, and narrow, deep parasphenoid. It is placed phyletically as the plesiomorphic sister taxon to all other camuropiscids which are more derived in having, inter alia , an anterior lateral plate which anteriorly contacts the anterior ventrolateral plate and pointed rostral plates. The family Camuropiscidae Dennis & Miles 1979b is redefined to incorporate features of the new genus. Camuropiscids and Incisoscutum are closely related by features of the postnasal plate and cheek. 相似文献

A new genus and species of actinolepid arthrodire, Aleosteus eganensis , is described from the Lower Devonian (Late Emsian) Sevy Dolomite in the Egan Range of east-central Nevada. A cladistic analysis of the family Actinolepidae is presented for the first time and shows the Baltic Actinolepis species form the primitive sister-group of all other actinolepids. Rapid evolution of the Actinolepidae during the Lochkovian is reflected in the dispersal of the family around the Old Red Sandstone Continent at this time followed by the development of endemic faunas through the Lower Devonian and into the Middle Devonian. 相似文献

A new species of Eastmanosteus Obruchev is described from the Upper Devonian Gogo Formation of Western Australia as E. calliaspis sp. nov. It is at the pachyosteomorph level of organization having no contact between the plates of the flank and those of the ventral shield behind the pectoral fin. Well preserved material of the parasphenoid and scapulocoracoid throws further light on the structure of these elements in arthrodires. The genus Eastmanosteus is reviewed. 相似文献

A moderately diverse Early Devonian (Lochkovian) trilobite and brachiopod association has been recovered from the lower part of the volcano-sedimentary Shakshagaily Formation, exposed on the western side of Lake Balkhash in central Kazakhstan. Its discovery demonstrates the presence of Lower Devonian marine deposits in the region. The trilobite assemblage includes representatives of six genera: the dalmanitid Kasachstania alperovichi nov. sp. is the dominant taxon, with other components being Ananaspis?, Leonaspis?, Maurotarion, Trimerus (Edgillia), and Warburgella. Associated brachiopods include species of Glossoleptaena, Leptaena, Protolepstostrophia, Pseudostrophochonetes, and Resserella. Whilst a significant proportion of these taxa show distinct links with the contemporaneous trilobite and brachiopod faunas of the north Balkhash Region, the occurrence of Trimerus (Edgillia) aff. kinglakensis Gill, 1949 suggests a possible link with the Lochkovian trilobite fauna of the Australasian sector of Gondwana. The west Balkhash Region preserves an extensive record of late Silurian to Early Devonian island arc volcanism, slope-rise sedimentation and olistostrome formation, which has invariably been ignored in models favouring early amalgamation of the Kazakhstanian terranes into a single continent by the end of the Ordovician. 相似文献

The Hexanchiformes (Cow Sharks) are regarded as a monophyletic taxon. Cladistic analysis shows that among the various neoselachian taxa proposed so far as the sister group of the Hexanchiformes a sister group relationship between the Hexanchiformes and a (still unnamed) taxon comprising the Squaliformes and Pristiophoriformes appears as the most probable hypothesis. In addition, MAISEY and WOLFRAM'S (1984) concept of hexanchiform interrelationships is critically reviewed. An alternative cladogram of hexanchiform interrelationships is developed which includes Recent as well as fossil hexanchiform taxa. In this cladogram the living genera Hexancbus and Notorynchus are sister groups and both taxa together form the sister group of the Recent Heptranchias. The fossil taxa +Notidanoides, +“Hexanchus” gracilis, +Notidanodon and +Weltonia are arranged in the stem lineage of recent Hexanchiformes. 相似文献

Phylogenetic relationships of a subset of Aphanius fish comprising central Anatolia, Turkey, are investigated to test the hypothesis of geographic speciation driven by early Pliocene orogenic events in spite of morphological similarity. We use 3434 aligned base pairs of mitochondrial DNA from 42 samples representing 36 populations of three species and six outgroup species to test this hypothesis. Genes analyzed include those encoding the 12S and 16S ribosomal RNAs; transfer RNAs coding for valine, leucine, isoleucine, glutamine, methionine, tryptophan, alanine, asparagine, cysteine, and tyrosine; and complete NADH dehydrogenase subunits I and II. Distance based minimum evolution and maximum-likelihood analyses identify six well-supported clades consisting of Aphanius danfordii, Aphanius sp. aff danfordii, and four clades of Aphanius anatoliae. Parsimony analysis results in 462 equally parsimonious trees, all of which contain the six well supported clades identified in the other analyses. Our phylogenetic results are supported by hybridization studies (Villwock, 1964), and by the geological history of Anatolia. Phylogenetic relationships among the six clades are only weakly supported, however, and differ among analytical methods. We therefore test and subsequently reject the hypothesis of simultaneous diversification among the six central Anatolian clades. However, our analyses do not identify any internodes that are significantly better supported than expected by chance alone. Therefore, although bifurcating branching order is hypothesized to underlie this radiation, the exact branching order is difficult to estimate with confidence. 相似文献

The extensive Devonian marine deposits of South China have yielded few articulated crinoid cups or theca. Two Eifelian specimens, from the Gupa Member, are the first ones reported from the Yingtang Formation, Eifelian, from the Ma’anshan section, Guangxi, South China. The new taxon Guangxicrinus xiangzhouensis n. gen. n. sp. is the first report of a marsupiocrinid in China, extending the paleogeographic range of the family into the Paleotethys and the stratigraphic range of the family upward from the upper Silurian into the lower Middle Devonian, Eifelian. The occurrence of Halocrinites sp. is the third occurrence of a cupressocrinitid in China and extends the paleogeographic range from Yunnan to Guangxi. 相似文献

New thelodont scales from the type section of the Khush-Yeilagh Formation, between Shahrud and Shahpasand(Iran), are described. They are provisionally referred to as Skamolepis sp. and Turinia cf. hutkensis. Together with T. hutkensis from South-East Iran and some undescribed scales from the Givetian of Australia, these specimens are some of the youngest thelodont scales known to date, since they are of Lower Eifelian age. 相似文献

The Couderousse Member of the Blacourt Formation in the Banc-Noir quarry, Ferques inlier, Boulonnais (Pas-de-Calais, France) has yielded a tooth plate whose morphology is similar to that of Synthetodus, which is considered a holocephalan. Its histology is made of an outer enameloid-like tissue, and an inner trabecular dentine. Its occlusal surface shows a bean-shaped bulge. This tooth plate was prepared from a limestone that is dated from the Middle–Upper varcus Conodont Zone, that is lower upper Givetian. This limestone has also yielded a Pokorninella bricae–Rothpletzella–Tentaculites assemblage, which is indicative of an environment of the inner to middle marine platform boundary. This specimen appears to be the oldest confirmed holocephalan (‘bradyodont’) tooth plate for which the name Melanodus loonesi nov. gen. et sp. is erected. 相似文献

The few isolated reports of agelacrinitid edrioasteroids (“Timeischytes”) from the Middle Devonian of the Eifel (Rhenish Massif, Germany) are revised. In this context, a specimen-rich but low-diversity edrioasteroid association is described from the threshold of the Eisen and Latistriatus Members of the Junkerberg Formation (Eifelian, Middle Devonian) of the Blankenheim Syncline. Predominantly, the autochthonously preserved edrioasteroids settled fixosessile-epibenthically on the frequent-occurring orthid brachiopod Schizophoria schnuri blankenheimensis and represent a wide spectrum of ontogenetic growth stages. They are associated with epibenthic brachiopods, microconchids, bryozoans, and auloporids—exemplifying synecological interactions. Roundish, shallow concavities with the shape and size of preserved adjacent edrioasteroids within encrusting colonies of the bryozoan Eostenopora clivosa are of special interest. It is suggested that the depressions represent former positions of the adjacent edrioasteroids. The new Bellastrella eifeliana n. gen. n. sp. is described, and genus Krama Bell, 1976 is reported from the Middle Devonian of Germany for the first time. 相似文献
