Couverture de l’ouvrage Cephalopods Present and Past: New Insights and Fresh Perspectives

This book brings together international scientists who focus on present-day and fossil cephalopods, ranging broadly from Paleozoic ammonoids to today's octopods. It covers systematics and evolution; hard- and soft part morphology; and ecology, biogeography, and taphonomy. The book also includes new evidence for the existence of an ink sac in fossil ammonoids and features the first record of an in-depth study of octopus ecology in Alaska.

Part I: Phylogeny and Systematics 1. Phylogenetic Practices among Scholars of Fossil Cephalopods, with Special Reference to Cladistics Pascal Neige, Isabelle Rouget, and Sebastien Moyne 2. Patterns of Embryonic Development in Early to Middle Devonian Ammonoids Susan M. Klofak, Neil H. Landman, and Royal H. Mapes 3.

Neil H. Landman: Curator-in-Charge, Invertebrate Paleontology, American Museum of Natural History; PhD, Yale University, 1982; Researcher in ammonoid paleobiology, systematics, and biostratigraphy.

Richard Arnold Davis: Professor of Biology and Geology, College of Mount St. Joseph; PhD, The University of Iowa, 1968; Researcher in the biology and taphonomy of fossil and present day cephalopods.

Royal H. Mapes: Professor Emeritus, Ohio University; PhD, The University of Iowa, 1977; Researcher in cephalopod systematics, phylogeny, taphonomy, and paleobiology

The book is a remarkable treatment of both fossil and living forms of cephalopods, with the aim of presenting the wide diversity.

Highlights include new evidence for the existence of an ink sac in fossil ammonoids, a biogeographic study of clymeniid ammonoids throughout the world, and an in-depth study of octopus ecology in Alaska.
