摘要
纽芬兰西部浅湾组Downes Point段碎屑流砾岩中的三个陆架衍生的巨砾,首次记录了Elvinia带(Steptoean;北美东部的江山期)。动物群以“catillicephalid”(Buttsia Wilson, 1951)为主,类似于宾夕法尼亚州盖茨堡组微生物聚集的三叶虫生物相。这与盖茨堡最年轻的阶梯阶生物地层单元——latagenae Cliffia亚带有关。新分类群为Triorygma burkhalteri gen. et sp. 11和Buttsia trema sp. 11。
A Jiangshanian (Cambrian; Furongian) trilobite fauna from the Cow Head Group, western Newfoundland
Three shelf-derived boulders in debris flow conglomerates of the Downes Point Member of the Shallow Bay Formation of western Newfoundland yielded the first record of an Upper Cambrian shelf-margin trilobite fauna from the Elvinia Zone (Steptoean; Jiangshanian) in eastern North America. The fauna is dominated by the “catillicephalid” Buttsia Wilson, 1951, and resembles trilobite biofacies from microbial buildups in the Gatesburg Formation of Pennsylvania. It is correlative with the Cliffia latagenae Subzone, which is the youngest Steptoean biostratigraphic unit in the Gatesburg. New taxa are Triorygma burkhalteri gen. et sp. nov. and Buttsia trema sp. nov.
