Helfrich was beside himself. Statoblasts function as survival pods that allow bryozoans to persist in unpredictable freshwater environments. Bryozoans, an aquatic invertebrate that typically lives ...

It showcases fossils from the Talchir Formation, the earliest phase of the Permian, including bivalves (Aviculopecten, Eurydesma), gastropods, brachiopods, crinoids, and bryozoans. Students ...

Bryozoans (simple aquatic invertebrates) join the goose barnacles, but the biodiversity remains relatively low. It is only in the third phase, after 210 days or so, that the biodiversity explodes.

Visitors can see a variety of fossils, including brachiopod shells, crinoids, and lacy bryozoans, on the Kaibab Limestone on the South Rim. Seeing these fossils allows one to visualize what the ...

Sessile invertebrates perform essential ecological functions in coastal ecosystems. This study aimed to provide an in-depth analysis of the status and distribution of sessile invertebrates along the ...

This important study advances our understanding of early Cambrian cnidarian paleoecology and suggests that the reconstructed ancestral feeding and respiration mechanisms predate jet-propelled swimming ...
