Black River Group

Ostracoderm tubercles were recovered from the lower portion of two Black River Group sections between Montreal and Quebec City. Some of these fish remains seem identical to tubercles of Astraspis desiderata from the Harding Sandstone of Colorado. The age of the Quebec remains is questionably earliest Blackriveran or basal Caradocian of the European standard. The remains were found in sandy carbonates probably laid down in the supratidal to shallow marine environments. It is concluded that these remains may represent part of a continent-wide, biostratigraphically useful vertebrate fauna and that bulk sampling and acid residuing might be a technique whereby sparse, fragmentary, earliest Paleozoic fish remains could be found.

Deposit Feeding

Rosette-shaped problematica are relatively common structures in the Phanerozoic rock record. Historically, they have been accorded a variety of names and documented from various shallow to deep marine environments. Unfortunately, the detailed interpretation of many such structures as biogenic (trace fossils, medusoids, or other body fossils; see, for example, Häntzschel, 1970, 1975) or nonbiogenic (for example, Pickerill and Harris, 1979) in origin still remains to be resolved. However, a detailed analysis of one such structure by Fürsich and Bromley (1985), namely Dactyloidites Hall, 1886, convincingly demonstrated its biogenic origin. The distinctive morphology of Dactyloidites and its synonyms was interpreted by Fürsich and Bromley (1985) to result from successive probings of an essentially stationary deposit-feeding, worm-like organism, possibly possessing a proboscis, to produce a rosetted, vertical spreiten with a centrally located, vertical or subvertical shaft.
