English

Subject field(s)
  • Paleontology
CONT

[Brachiopods of the] superfamily Pentameracea [have] shells [that are] variable in size but tending to be large; commonly strongly biconvex; [the] exterior [is] smooth, costellate, costate, rarely pitted or granulose. [The] pedicle interior [has a] well-developed spondylium, usually supported on [a] septum but free in a few genera. Lophophore supports consist of rodlike or bladelike brachial processes which are unmodified(...) ;at [the] posterior end [the] brachial processes are supported on plates which usually extend forward sufficiently to enclose [a] brachial muscle field but which may be shortened to exclude [the] muscle field. "? M. Ord., U. Ord.-U. Dev. ".

[The] brachial apparatus [is] commonly lyre-shaped in cross-section, [the] brachial processes [are] bladelike; [the] outer plates [are] discrete or coalesced into [a] cruralium. "L. Sil.-U. Dev. ".

Subject field(s)
  • Paleontology
OBS

[Brachiopods of the] family Pentameridae [are] smooth, costate, costellate, granulose, or pitted, with or without interareas and generally have strongly biconvex shells. [A] pedicle spondylium [is] well developed, commonly supported at least in part by [a] septum. Brachial processes [are] supported by well-developed plates which in some genera are parallel and discrete, and in others uniting to form [a] cruralium; in both types [the] brachial apparatus [is] long, extending forward far enough to enclose [the] muscle area; brachial processes [are] rodlike or bladelike. U. Ord.-U. Dev.

English

Subject field(s)
  • Paleontology
OBS

[This is a calcareous foraminifera test], Microscopically granulose(...) composed of minute calcite crystals(...), probably originally granular but possibly recrystallized; [the] granules may be aligned in rows perpendicular to [the] outer wall, resulting in fibrous structure.

  • Paléontologie
OBS

[Il s'agit d'un test foraminifère calcaire] épais formé par la juxtaposition de granules subsphériques de dimensions à peu près homogènes (...). Les granules peuvent être disposés sans ordre dans la structure microgranuleuse (...), ou en files radiées ou "pseudofibres" dans la structure pseudofibreuse.
