AbstractThe systematic composition and paleoecological distribution of echinoderms in the rocks of the Latorp and Volkhov regional stages of the Lower and Middle Ordovician of the Leningrad Region are reviewed. The basic types of soft-, firm-, and hardground echinoderm communities are reconstructed; the features of their formation and spatial and t...

AbstractThe paper reviews history of studies and research areas on a frozen mummy of the woolly mammoth (Mammuthus primigenius) found in 2010 in Oyogoss Yar, about 30 km west of the Kondratyeva River mouth, northern Yakutia. Introduced to the scientific literature as the Yuka Mammoth, it became the first, partly preserved carcass of female woolly m...

AbstractThis article considers the unusual Macropodosaurus gravis tracks from the Early Cretaceous (Albian) locality of Shirkent-1 (Tajikistan). The trackmaker was bipedal and plantigrade. Through a comparison of Macropodosaurus tracks with those of other dinosaurs and by a juxtaposition of track morphology and pes skeletal morphology, it is argued...

AbstractThe cladid crinoid Kholokholnyacrinus ilkhovskyi gen. et sp. nov. is described based on a very large cup from the Pennsylvanian (Kashirian Regional Substage, Smedva Formation) of the Rzhev–Staritsa Volga Region. The new taxon is characterized by a complex of morphological characters in the structure of the crown and arms, such as a disartic...

AbstractA partial carcass of the woolly mammoth, Mammuthus primigenius, named “Yuka Mammoth,” was found thawed from the Pleistocene Yedoma (permafrost) deposits of the Oyogos Yar bluff on the coast of the Dmitry Laptev Strait. Yuka’s AMS calibrated radiocarbon date yielded the date between ~40 100–39 000 calendar years BP. The mDNA analyses demonst...

AbstractAn Early Carboniferous gastropod assemblage from the Viséan/Serpukhovian boundary deposits of the Dombar Hills (western slope of the South Urals) is described. The assemblage is interpreted as having inhabited relatively deep-water environments of carbonate deposition on the passive continental margin of Laurussia. The lenses of crinoid lim...

AbstractRepresentatives of Trilobozoa, a group of tri-radially symmetrical animals, were re-examined based on the material from a new, extensive collection of macrofossils from the Late Ediacaran (Vendian) sediments of the southeastern White Sea region. In addition to body imprints, the collection contains specimens suggesting that trilobozoans cou...

AbstractThe telencephalon, which provides the highest forms of nervous activity in humans and other animals, is one of the most important innovations of vertebrates. Although this part of the brain has been described in all living vertebrates, its evolutionary origin is still poorly understood. This article discusses one of the possible approaches ...

AbstractAfter the Permian–Triassic crisis, most marine benthic animals disappeared, which variously influenced the subsequent evolution of different groups of invertebrates. Biologically similar colonial bryozoans and solitary brachiopods, which together with the phoronids are some united into the clade Lophophorata, show contrasting results in thi...
