A new, complete family tree of Cephalopoda
Bringing Fossils to Life posted a topic in General Fossil Discussion
After a lot of research, I made this family tree for all of Cephalopoda. I have posted major resources below. Dates and lots of other stuff: https://paleobiodb.org/#/ Mass Extinction events https://samnoblemuseum.ou.edu/understanding-extinction/mass-extinctions/end-ordovician-extinction/ https://samnoblemuseum.ou.edu/understanding-extinction/mass-extinctions/late-devonian-extinctions/ Ammonoid classification: https://www.researchgate.net/publication/292489944_Fossil_Focus_Ammonoids Extinction of the Goniatites: https://www.nationalgeographic.com/history/article/121018-triassic-extinctions-hot-global-warming-science-environment Evolution of non-octobranchian coleoids: https://www.researchgate.net/publication/257132699_Longibelus_gen_nov_A_new_Cretaceous_coleoid_genus_linking_Belemnoidea_and_early_Decabrachia Evolution of octobranchians: https://static-content.springer.com/esm/art%3A10.1038%2Fs41467-022-28333-5/MediaObjects/41467_2022_28333_MOESM1_ESM.pdf https://www.nature.com/articles/s41467-022-28333-5 Extinction of the Ellesmocerids: https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1111/j.1475-4983.2007.00644.x Early Spirulids; https://www.researchgate.net/publication/325588476_An_Early_Triassic_gladius_associated_with_soft_tissue_remains_from_Idaho_USA-a_squid-like_coleoid_cephalopod_at_the_onset_of_Mesozoic_Era And here is the family tree: -

Chitinobelus, a strange and rare belemnite? from the Posidonienschiefer
TqB posted a topic in Member Collections
Extremely rare, I never thought I'd get the chance to acquire one of these so I was very pleased when one came up for sale. Chitinobelus acifer Fischer 1981, a belemnite (or possibly belemnotheutid) whose rostrum was originally composed of aragonite with organic material. As a result, it's preserved as a compressed organic film with the aragonite lost to diagenesis. Belemnites are nearly always mostly calcite (largely thought to be primary) and preserve 3D in all sorts of rock. There is argument (quite complex) over whether this is an unusual aragonitic belemnite or something a bit different. There are prominent striations which are similar to those in the "normal" belemnite, Salpingoteuthis. From the Jurassic, Lower Toarcian Posidonienschiefer of Zell (not far from Holzmaden, Germany). As far as I know, this is the only locality it's been found. Phragmocone chambers just visible.
