Hexactinellid sponges with rigid, laterally fused, dictyonine skeletons are reported from the Frasnian rocks of the Holy Cross Mts, Central Poland. This occurrence with nearly contemporary undescribed forms from Belgium and Western Australia, extend the range of the Hexactinosa back from the Triassic, the previously earliest described sponges of the order

Drobne osobnicze koralowce Rugosa (fauna Cyathaxonia) pospolite są w dewonie środkowym, bardzo rzadkie we franie i ponownie rozkwitają w famenie, gdy pojawiają sie nowe rodzaje. Takie rozprzestrzenienie sugeruje raczej pozywecki, a nie pofranski kryzys w badanej grupie. W Gorach Świetokrzyskich fauna Cyathaxonia dośc czesto wystepuje w utworach glebszego szelfu, glownie wieku eifelskiego i zyweckiego. Jej reprezentanci nalezą do rodzin Metriophyllidae, Laccophyllidae i Stereolasmatidae. Ta ostatnia jest typowa dla środkowego dewonu krolestwa biogeograficznego Wschodnich Ameryk (EAR) i, obok zafrentidow Heliophyllum i sifonofrentidow „Breviphrentis” ze strefy lysogorskiej, reprezentuje w Gorach Świetokrzyskich imigrantow z EAR do krolestwa Starego Świata.

Streszczenie angielskie: Multi-stage development of carbonate buildups has been recognised in the Bol'shaya Nadota Carbonate Complex, in the vicinity of the town of Inta (Subpolar Urals). The growth of typical stromatoporoid-coral bioherms, characteristic of the Middle-Late Devonian stage, was terminated by the appearance of the shallow water oolitic facies, most probably at the beginning of the Famennian. During the Visean stage the carbonate platform was reconstructed, but algarbrachiopod-coral bioherms were ...

the environs of Ch eciny. SW Holy Cross Mts and in its age equivalents in the Silesian-Cracow region of Southern Poland represent five distinct assemblages of restricted time-and-space distribution. Within the Stringocephalus Beds the high diversity Pseudohexagonaria(?) laxa assemblage indicates open-shelf conditions whereas low diversity Temnophyllum occidentale assemblage represents restricted conditions. The transgressive JaZwica Mbr. locally contains diversified and cos-mopolitan Acanthophyllum sp. n. fauna. Following temporally coral assemblages, i.e, Disphyllum (lower Sitk6wka and Checiny Beds) and Macgeea-Thamnophyllum (Kadzielnia Mbr, upper Sitk6wka Beds) are mostly biostromes of branching corals of low taxonomical diversity typical for restricted relatively setting, rather unfavor-able for rugosans. Exceptional are two Hexagonaria horizons with common massive colon ies. DUfusolasma gen. nov., Sociophyllum severiacum sp. nov.. Temnophyllum zamkowae sp. nov. a nd H exagonaria...

Literature data indicate above average diversity of the Cyathaxonia fauna in the Devonian period, both in absolute numbers of (sub)families and genera per age and also with respect to taxonomic diversities as calculated per Ma (106 years). The Emsian and Famennian faunas, although represented by most numerous (sub)families and genera, have less than average di− versities, due to their more than average durations, whereas the shorter intervals of the Pragian and Givetian have the highest values for diversity per Ma, and Frasnian faunas the lowest diversities, for both (sub)families and genera. The post−Givetian crisis may have been responsible for the Frasnian minimum, although limited temporal resolution of the analysis does not al− low for a more precise description of the Givetian/Frasnian transition. However, “silent taxa” are extremely numerous in the Frasnian, i.e., taxa which are present both prior to and after the Frasnian, but missing from the Frasnian record itself indicat−...

Abstract The Middle Devonian (Givetian) chaetetid sponges and alveolitid tabulate corals that inhabited mesophotic paleoenvironments of the southern shelf of Laurussia (Holy Cross Mountains, Poland) have been studied with respect to encrustation patterns. These epibiotic communities are characterized by modest diversity and high dominance, and show distinct polarization with respect to the exposed and cryptic sides of the host's skeletons. The most abundant davidsoniid brachiopods and microconchids show strong preferences toward the lower (cryptic) sides, while auloporid tabulate corals dominate on the exposed sides of the hosts. The remaining and much rarer epibionts, cornulitids and rugose corals, show no clear preferences. In some shallow-water Silurian paleoenvironments, auloporids are known to dominate the cryptic sides of the hosts. Thus, considering the auloporid tabulates as photosymbiotic corals, their absence or rarity in the Middle Devonian cryptic habitats might have resulted from insufficient irradiance levels in otherwise depleted light conditions. As a result, the available space and lack or lower competition for the area with faster-growing colonial auloporids, enabled solitary encrusters to colonize the cryptic niches. The scarce bioerosion traces and rather low diversity of epibionts in our case may indicate that these mesophotic reefs developed in a nutrient-poor, oligotrophic habitats. The davidsoniid-dominated, cryptic encrusting communities were widespread in some paleoenvironments during the Middle Devonian, being known from both Laurussia and South China craton. However, such mesophotic cryptic communities, characterized by distinct polarization in comparison to open-surface environments, contrast with other Givetian deep-water, aphotic cryptic communities reported so far, where such polarization is hardly visible.
