Paleontological Journal Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Abstract

Generic diversity, stratigraphic and geographic distribution and the history of evolution of the Devonian chonetid brachiopods were analyzed in relation with some Devonian biotic events, based on the study of collections from different regions of the world and a summary of previously published data.
