“…These facts allowed Nazarov to distinguish three different taxa: Entactinosphaera Foreman for species with two porous shells; Spongentactinia Nazarov for species with one spongy and one porous shell; and Tecentactinia Nazarov for species with three shells (Nazarov 1975). Thus, Foreman's (1963) diagnosis can be used as a basis for Trilonche but it should be corrected by restricting the number of shells strictly to two and including only representatives with porous or latticed structure of the skeletal sphere. Radiolarians with three or more shells and spongy structure should be assigned to other genera.…”

Four well-preserved radiolarian associations recovered from the uppermost Givetian-upper Frasnian siliceous strata of the Zolotukha and Gryaznukha formations near Gornyak Settlement in the Altai-Sayan Folded Area (ASFA) in the South West Rudny Altai, southwestern Siberia, eastern Russia, are represented by 26 species assigned to 11 genera including a new taxon, Cancellientactinia acifera gen. et sp. nov. The validity of the genera Entactinia Foreman and Stigmosphaerostylus Rüst is discussed and the diagnosis of the genus Trilonche Hinde is emended. The main Frasnian fauna is dominated by spherical entactiniids whereas spiny ceratoikiscids and palaeoscenids possess more diversity in the later transitional Frasnian-Famennian associatio

“…First, Clifton (1957) noted that uncrushed Tasmanites occur in the concretions but not in the shale, and Foreman (1959) made similar observations about radiolaria. Second, our chemical data demonstrate that a significant shale component is present within the concretions and that the fractional amount of this component increases radially outward in the concretions, as described below.…”

ABSTRACT. Moderately well-preserved radiolarian assemblages are described from bedded cherts south of Mae Hong Son, north-west Thailand. Twenty species and subspecies are identified, including one new species (Archocyrtium sashidai Feng sp. nov.). The assemblages belong to the middle Early Carboniferous Albaillella indensis and Eostylodictya rota zones. The new data suggest that there was a pelagic basin between the Shan-Thai terrane and Gondwana during the Early Carboniferous. This implies, contrary to previous interpretations, that the Shan-Thai terrane had already rifted apart from Gondwana during the Early Carboniferous.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
