Moulting in the Cambrian oryctocephalid trilobiteArthricocephalites xinzhaiheensisfrom Guizhou Province, South China

Yifan Wang et al.

Summary: Understanding the moulting behavior of trilobites through different growth stages, this study focuses on the detailed exploration of moulting behaviors in Arthricocephalites xinzhaiheensis based on a large number of disarticulated specimens. The findings show that the trilobites commonly utilized cephalic sutures and cephalothoracic joint for moulting, involving rotation or inversion of the cranidium to create a wide exuvial gape.

Articulated trilobite ontogeny: suggestions for a methodological standard

Nigel C. Hughes et al.

Summary: A set of standard practices have been proposed to maximize the utility of future studies of trilobite ontogeny, focusing on collection, nomenclature, description, depiction, and interpretation of ontogenetic series. These suggestions may also be relevant to ontogenetic studies of other fossilized taxa.

THE POST-EMBRYONIC ONTOGENY OF THE EARLY CAMBRIAN TRILOBITE ESTAINGIA BILOBATA FROM SOUTH AUSTRALIA: TRUNK DEVELOPMENT AND PHYLOGENETIC IMPLICATIONS

James D. Holmes et al.

Summary: Trilobites, particularly the ellipsocephaloid Estaingia bilobata, play an important role in studying early animal evolution and developmental processes. This study provides insights into the post-embryonic ontogenetic series of E. bilobata, with new information on growth patterns and morphological features. The findings further support the phylogenetic relationships between the Estaingiidae, Ellipsocephalidae, and Xystriduridae.
