Abstract

‘Asturicystis’ havliceki Fatka & Kordule from the middle Cambrian of Bohemia (Czech Republic) is re‐described based on its type material. Several features, including the extension of the food grooves and presence of ventral swellings suggest that ‘A.’ havliceki does not belong to Asturicystis, and is placed in the new genus Bohemiacinctus. To ascertain the phylogenetic position of Bohemiacinctus havliceki, we conducted Bayesian fossil tip‐dating and parsimony‐based phylogenetic analyses of 24 species spanning all major groups of cinctan higher taxa. Results show a high degree of congruence between tree topologies recovered by both tip‐dated and parsimony‐based analyses. Both methods indicate B. havliceki is phylogenetically distant from Asturicystis and is most likely to be an early representative of the family Sucocystidae. Overall, our phylogeny is broadly similar to previous estimates of cinctan relationships, including a more conventional phylogenetic position of controversial taxa such as Protocinctus. These results point to the sensitivity of small clades such as cinctans to taxon sampling effects, and highlights the importance of taxonomy and accurate morphological character descriptions in phylogenetic analyses of fossil taxa.
波希米亚寒武纪Bohemiacinctus gen. 11 .(棘皮目,中国科)的系统发育位置:宏观进化意义和分类群取样在古生物系统学中的作用
根据其类型材料对捷克波西米亚中寒武纪的“Asturicystis”havliceki Fatka & Kordule进行了重新描述。一些特征,包括食物槽的延伸和腹部肿胀的存在,表明“A。havliceki不属于Asturicystis,而被归入新属Bohemiacinctus。为了确定波希米亚猿猴(Bohemiacinctus havliceki)的系统发育位置,我们对24个物种进行了贝叶斯化石尖端定年和基于简约性的系统发育分析。结果表明,在尖端日期和基于简约的分析中恢复的树拓扑之间具有高度的一致性。这两种方法都表明,哈弗李氏芽孢杆菌在系统发育上与尾囊虫相距较远,很可能是尾囊虫科的早期代表。总的来说,我们的系统发育与之前对cincintus关系的估计大致相似,包括对有争议的类群(如protocintus)的更传统的系统发育定位。这些结果表明了小枝(如栉水母)对分类单元取样效应的敏感性,并强调了分类和准确的形态特征描述在化石分类单元系统发育分析中的重要性。

期刊介绍: Papers in Palaeontology is the successor to Special Papers in Palaeontology and a journal of the Palaeontological Association (www.palass.org). The journal is devoted to the publication of papers that document the diversity of past life and its distribution in time and space. Papers in Palaeontology is devoted to the publication of papers that document the diversity of past life and its distribution in time and space. As a sister publication to Palaeontology its focus is on descriptive research, including the descriptions of new taxa, systematic revisions of higher taxa, detailed biostratigraphical and biogeographical documentation, and descriptions of floras and faunas from specific localities or regions. Most contributions are expected to be less than 30 pp long but longer contributions will be considered if the material merits it, including single topic parts. The journal publishes a wide variety of papers on palaeontological topics covering: palaeozoology, palaeobotany, systematic studies, palaeoecology, micropalaeontology, palaeobiogeography, functional morphology, stratigraphy, taxonomy, taphonomy, palaeoenvironmental reconstruction, palaeoclimate analysis, biomineralization studies.
