Abstract
A new genus and species of hypercalcified calcareous sponge, Gzhelistella cornigera gen. et sp. nov., is described from the Kosherovo Formation (Gzhelian Stage) of the Moscow region. The new genus is the first representative of hypercalcified calcareous sponges from the Upper Carboniferous with an “inozoan-like” internal structure and a characteristic spicular organization of the skeleton.
期刊介绍:
Paleontological Journal (Paleontologicheskii zhurnal) is the principal Russian periodical in paleontology. The journal publishes original work on the anatomy, morphology, and taxonomy of fossil organisms, as well as their distribution, ecology, and origin. It also publishes studies on the evolution of organisms, ecosystems, and the biosphere and provides invaluable information on global biostratigraphy with an emphasis on Eastern Europe and Asia.
