Provincialism, dispersal, development, and phylogeny of trilobites
View through CrossRef
Four topics are discussed in this paper: (1) provincialism, (2) dispersal, (3) larval developments, and (4) evolutionary trends of trilobites. The emphasis is placed on the discussion of relevant problems in appearance, migration, evolution, and extinction of trilobites.
