Stegodon Bone China Pleistocene age (2,588,000 to 11,700 years ago) Stegodon (meaning "roofed tooth" from the Greek words stegein 'to cover' and odous 'tooth', because of the distinctive ridges on the animal's molars) is a genus of the extinct subfamily Stegodontinae of the order Proboscidea. It was assigned to the family Elephantidae (Abel, 1919), but has also been placed in Stegodontidae (R. L. Carroll, 1988). Stegodonts were present from 11.6 mya to late Pleistocene, with unconfirmed records of regional survival until 4,100 years ago. Fossils are found in Asian and African strata dating from the late Miocene. They lived in large parts of Asia, East and Central Africa during the Pleistocene.

Taxonomy from Schweitzer et al. 2014. Quote (Schweitzer et al. 2014, p. 457): "Although the lobsters were interpreted as having relatively durable cuticle, the shrimp discussed herein are characterized by having very thin cuticle that is readily deformed and oriented in a variety of positions. As a result, the description and interpretation of the morphology of the shrimp is, of necessity, a composite of several specimens; however, fine detail of many parts of the skeletal anatomy is exquisite." Diagnosis from Schweitzer et al. 2014, p. 467: "Carapace longer than high; rostrum very long, 40 percent length of carapace, with one basal suprarostral spine and one subrostral spine at midlength; uropodal exopod with diaeresis; ventral lateral margins of telson with setal pits, appearing to extend entire length of telson; third maxilliped about as long as first and second pereiopods, with spine bases or setal pits along propodal and dactyl ventral margin; pereiopods 1– 3 chelate, third pereiopod longest, fourth and fifth longer than first and second, pereiopods without spines; pleopods apparently with multiarticulate flagellae." Identified by oilshale using Schweitzer et al. 2014. Characteristic is the extremely long rostrum, constituting 40 percent of the carapace length.

Originally named Sinosaurichthys by Wu et al., 2011, the genus was reranked as Saurichthys by A. Tintori (2013) Diagnosis from Wu et al. 2011, p. 595: "Medium−sized Sinosaurichthys (standard body length ranging from 270–470 mm) with unusually elongated median fins with relatively few segments of fin rays; less number of neural arches between opercle and caudal fin (approximately 157–172), less number of anterior ones with neural spines (130–146); and less number of mid−dorsal scales in front of dorsal fin (69–86) than in type species; 14–15 distinct haemal spines in caudal region; pectoral fin triangular shaped with length about 1/3 of mandible length (shared with S. minuta described below); posttemporal−supracleithrum from either side separated from each other by anterior mid−dorsal scales (shared with S. minuta described below); cleithrum plate (depth/length ratio ca. 1.2–1.25) much lower than in type species (approximately 1.8), but close to that in S. minuta (ap− proximately 1).

Lituites Fossil China TIME PERIOD: late Ordovician Period (445-458 Million Years ago) Data: Lituites is an extinct nautiloid genus from the Middle Ordovician and type for the Lituitidae (a tarphycerid family) that in some more recent taxonomies has been classified with the orthocerids and listed under the order Lituitida. it's now considered widespread, Fossils have been found in New York, Argentina, Norway, Sweden, Estonia, and China. Lituites produced a shell with a planospirally coiled juvenile portion at the apex, reflective of its tarphycerid ancestry, followed by a long, moderately expanding, generally straight, orthoconic adult section with a subdorsal siphuncle connecting the chambers. The adult body chamber may equal or exceed the length of the chambered part of the orthoconic section. The mature aperture has a pair of pronounced ventrolateral lappets and a similar but shorter pair of dorsolateral lappets. Lituites gives its name to the term "lituiticone" which refers to a shell that is coiled in the early growth stage and later becomes uncoiled.
