Phylogenetic analysis of the late Cambrian-early Ordovician genus Parabolinella Brøgger (Trilobita, Olenidae)
Phylogenetic relationships among species of the family Olenidae (Trilobita, Ptychopariida) were traditionally established by the direct comparison of morphological features and the evaluation of stratigraphic placement. In this study, a cladistic analysis of Parabolinella Brøgger is conducted in ord...

Phylogenetic relationships among species of the family Olenidae (Trilobita, Ptychopariida) were traditionally established by the direct comparison of morphological features and the evaluation of stratigraphic placement. In this study, a cladistic analysis of Parabolinella Brøgger is conducted in order to test the supposed monophyly of the genus and to determine the relationships of its species. Twenty-one taxa (sixteen of this genus) from the late Cambrian and Tremadocian of Baltica, Avalonia, Laurentia, South China and the western margin of Gondwana were revised. Forty non-ordered characters were considered in the analysis, 34 belonging to the cephalon, four to the pygidium, and two to the thorax. Some of these characters were specially defined for this study. The phylogenetic analysis was performed under unweighted parsimony. The obtained tree is partially consistent with the stratigraphic record of the studied species and shows correspondence with global late Cambrian and early Ordovician palaeogeography.
