Giant middle Eocene bryozoan reef mounds in the Great …
2014年8月1日 · This paper reports the discovery of extensive middle Eocene bryozoan reef complexes along the paleoshelf edge of the Great Australian Bight (GAB). The complexes form the earliest carbonate deposit in the GAB, which is the largest Cenozoic cool-water carbonate province on Earth.
Bryozoa of the Early Eocene Tumaio Limestone, Chatham Island…
2015年1月30日 · The Tumaio bryozoan fauna shows a high degree of endemicity, contains the earliest known records of several cheilostome families, and small colonies of encrusting species that may represent the oldest example of an ‘interstitial’ bryozoan fauna.

Key words: Bryozoa, upper Eocene, acetic acid, taxonomy, Northern Calcareous Alps, Bavaria comprise a series of marls and limestones, and are famous for their rich coral fauna. Bryozoa are abundant but have mostly been recognised in thin sections of the limestones on account of their typical cellular structure.

2007年1月2日 · The first extensive and stratigraphically detailed taxonomic study of the Middle to Late Eocene Bryozoa of the St Vincent Basin has identified more than 200 species of Cheilostomata and 50...
During the years 1992 to 1996 we spent many weeks together in the field in Hungary, Slovakia and Italy to find localities with Eocene sediments containing Bryozoa. The investigation of the Hungarian Eocene yielded an exceptionally rich collection of Bryozoa, which seems to be the richest association from the Eocene in the Alpine Carpathian region.
Late Eocene bryozoan faunas within the Eocene …
Twelve Priabonian (Late Eocene) bryozoan faunas of the Alps and Carpathians, collected from shallow to deep marine sediments, are compared by similarity indices.
An assemblage of cheilostome Bryozoa from upper Eocene (Tertiary 6) beds on Eua, Tonga, appears to be a mixture of five autochthonous and 13 allochthonous species.
The McBean fauna shows greatest resemblance to the Castle Hayne bryozoans (upper Eocene) of North Carolina, which include six of the McBean species. The McBean is probably older than the Castle Hayne, but not as old as middle Eocene. Stephenson (1911), Cooke and Shearer (1919), and Cooke (1943).

2016年5月20日 · Examples of such fossils recorded (Schindler and Portell, 1993) from Cenozoic deposits in Florida include the scleractinian coral Septastrea marylandica (Conrad, 1841) (see Darrell and Taylor, 1989), the hydrozoan Cystactinia ocalana Brooks, 1964, and the bryozoan Hippoporidra edax (Busk, 1859) [recorded as H. calcarea (Smitt) by Scolaro, 1970 ...
Bryozoa - Wikipedia
Bryozoa (also known as the Polyzoa, Ectoprocta or commonly as moss animals) [6] are a phylum of simple, aquatic invertebrate animals, nearly all living in sedentary colonies. Typically about 0.5 millimetres (1 ⁄ 64 in) long, they have a special feeding structure called a lophophore, a "crown" of tentacles used for filter feeding.
