Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book contains detailed descriptions of new species of such extinct marine animals as cystoids and starfish that once flourished on the ocean floor during the Silurian era. The author begins by introducing the reader to the geological context and evolutionary history of this distinctive group of organisms whose skeletal remains consist of a protective dermal or external skeleton adorned with ornamentations. This protective 'coat of mail' was composed of thin calcareous plates that shielded them from predators and provided stability during their sedentary existence. Additionally, the book examines the fossil remains of their exoskeletons and explores their significance in paleontological studies. The author traces the evolution of these creatures from their initial appearance in the fossil record, through their proliferation and diversification during the Silurian era, to their extinction before the Carboniferous period. The author's research provides unparalleled insights into the anatomy and development of these fascinating extinct species, shedding light on their evolutionary relationships and paleoecological significance. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
