Calcareous green algae (CGA) are an artificially united but highly heterogeneous group of
large unicellular benthic algae with one character in common: all have the capability of …

A Pennsylvanian (Bashkirian–Moscovian) high-rising, microbial boundstone-dominated
carbonate platform (> 12,000 km2) developed in the external margin of a Variscan foreland …

Pennsylvanian phylloid algal reefs are widespread and well exposed in south Guizhou,
China. Here we report on reefs ranging from 2 to 8 m thickness and 30–50 m lateral …

The preservation of nonrapidly buried autochthonous shell concentrations with
noncementing epifaunal animals in life position presents a taphonomic dilemma if in fact an …

High-diversity marine biotic communities characterize the lower Kasimovian (Upper
Pennsylvanian) carbonates of the Las Llacerias Formation in the Ándara Massif (Picos de …

The 14 km wide Valdorria outcrop (Pennsylvanian, northern Spain) is one of the few
examples of entirely exposed flat‐topped and high‐relief carbonate platforms reported in the …

During the uppermost Carboniferous and lowermost Permian algal mounds were formed in
inner shelf settings of the Carnic Alps (Austria/Italy). A specific mound type, characterized by …

The Carboniferous period was a unique period for reef developments during the Late
Paleozoic; however, in past years, studies dealing with the Carboniferous reefs in China …

Phylloid algae are important reef‐builders in the late Carboniferous. This paper focuses on
the paleoecology of phylloid algae in the Late Carboniferous on well‐exposed reefs in Ziyun …

The Pennsylvanian is characterized by intense paleoenvironmental changes related to
glacio-eustatic sea-level fluctuations and major tectonic events, which affected the evolution …
