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...

The genus diversified in outer shelf facies of the Baltica Province during the late Cambrian and Tremadocian, whereas it would have dispersed to the South China Province in early Tremadocian times. © 2012 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
