Abstract
Abstract An acanthodian assemblage is reported for the first time from the Silurian–Devonian boundary beds of Novaya Zemlya Archipelago, Russia. The acanthodian scales and rare other vertebrate microremains were in a sample collected from the Reliktovoe Formation of the western coast of Inostantzev Bay, North Island. The assemblage includes Gomphonchus mediocostatus, Gomphonchoporus hoppei taxa previously described from the Pridoli – Lochkovian of Laurussia, and Taimyrolepis composita occurred in the Lochkovian of Siberia. Gomphonchus mediocostatus and Gomphonchoporus hoppei are widely distributed in the Baltica palaeogeographic province, and Taimyrolepis is known from the Siberia province, indicating connection between those provinces.
期刊介绍:
GFF is the journal of the Geological Society of Sweden. It is an international scientific journal that publishes papers in English covering the whole field of geology and palaeontology, i.e. petrology, mineralogy, stratigraphy, systematic palaeontology, palaeogeography, historical geology and Quaternary geology. Systematic descriptions of fossils, minerals and rocks are an important part of GFF''s publishing record. Papers on regional or local geology should deal with Balto-Scandian or Northern European geology, or with geologically related areas. Papers on geophysics, geochemistry, biogeochemistry, climatology and hydrology should have a geological context. Descriptions of new methods (analytical, instrumental or numerical), should be relevant to the broad scope of the journal. Review articles are welcome, and may be solicited occasionally. Thematic issues are also possible.
