Stenothecoida

Stenothecoida is a taxon of bivalved fossils from the Early to middle Cambrian period. They look a bit like brachiopods or bivalve molluscs.

Stenothecoida
Temporal range: Early–mid-Cambrian, 525–500 Ma[1][2]
Scientific classification
Domain: Eukaryota
Kingdom: Animalia
Superphylum: Lophotrochozoa
Class: Stenothecoida
Yochelson, 1968[3]
Genera
  • Stenothecoides Resser
  • Bagenovia Radugin
  • Cambridium Horný, 1957
  • Bagenoviella Aksarina
  • Sulcocarina Aksarina
  • Kaschkadakia Aksarina
  • Makarakia Aksarin

Affinity edit

Their affinity is uncertain. They were considered by E. L. Yochelson 1968[citation needed] to belong to Mollusca, whereas Runnegar and Pojeta (1974) suggested that they might be 'bivalved monoplacophorans'. This said, the morphology of the shell does not resemble the shell of any other class of molluscs;[4] they also look a little like brachiopods[1] It's not clear whether their two valves are each other's mirror images, as in bivalve molluscs, though they aren't identical to one another [?].[1] It's more likely that the valves each have a single plane of symmetry (as in brachiopods), suggesting a brachiopod affiliation.[1]

As with many other Cambrian taxa,[5][6] it has been suggested that they arise through reduction of a Halkieria-like ancestor.[1]

Mineralogy edit

Thought to be low-Mg calcite.[7]

Occurrence edit

The earliest occurrence dates to 525 Ma.[2]

These fossil shells have been found in Canada, China, Greenland, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, and the USA.
