• Acritarchs from the Duolbagáisá Formation (Cambrian Series 2-Miaolingian) on the Digermulen Peninsula, Finnmark, Arctic Norway: towards a high-resolution Cambrian chronostratigraphy 

      Palacios, Teodoro; Högström, Anette; Ebbestad, Jan Ove R.; Agić, Heda; Høyberget, Magne; Jensen, Sören; Meinhold, Guido; Taylor, Wendy L. (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2020-04-24)
      New information on acritarchs from the Duolbagáisá Formation, Digermulen Peninsula, Arctic Norway, enable recognition of the three Cambrian Series 2 acritarch-based zones: the <i>Skiagia ornata–Fimbriaglomerella membranacea, Heliosphaeridium dissimilare–Skiagia ciliosa and Volkovia dentifera–Liepaina plana</i> Assemblage zones. Acritarchs of the <i>Skiagia ornata–Fimbriaglomerella membranacea</i> ...
    • Distribution and correlation of Sabellidites cambriensis (Annelida?) in the basal Cambrian on Baltica 

      Ebbestad, Jan Ove R.; Hybertsen, Frida; Högström, Anette; Jensen, Sören; Palacios, Teodoro; Taylor, Wendy L.; Agic, Heda; Høyberget, Magne; Meinhold, Guido (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-12-09)
      Sabellidites cambriensis is a tubular non-mineralized metazoan that appears as compressed ribbon-shaped imprints with transverse wrinkling, thick walls and an even tube diameter of up to 3 mm. The distribution of Sabellidites is investigated in three Ediacaran–Cambrian sections on the Digermulen Peninsula in Arctic Norway, spanning the Manndrapselva Member of the Stáhpogieddi Formation and the lower ...
    • First record of carbonates with spherulites and cone-in-cone structures from the Precambrian of Arctic Norway, and their palaeoenvironmental significance 

      Meinhold, Guido; Jensen, Sören; Høyberget, Magne; Arslan, Arzu; Ebbestad, Jan Ove R.; Högström, Anette; Palacios, Teodoro; Agic, Heda; Taylor, Wendy L. (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019-04-10)
      We report for the first time carbonates from the upper Ediacaran sedimentary succession of Finnmark, Arctic Norway. Carbonates occur as calcareous siliciclastic beds, lenses, and concretions, some with calcite spherulites and cone-in-cone (CIC) calcite, in a mudrock to fine-grained sandstone succession from approximately 3 m to 26 m above the base of the 2nd cycle of the Manndrapselva Member of the ...
    • A late Caledonian tectono-thermal event in the Gaissa Nappe Complex, Arctic Norway: evidence from fine-fraction K‒Ar dating and illite crystallinity from the Digermulen Peninsula 

      Meinhold, Guido; Wemmer, K; Högström, Anette; Ebbestad, Jan Ove R.; Jensen, Sören; Palacios, Teodoro; Høyberget, Magne; Agic, Heda; Taylor, Wendy L. (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019-10-03)
      Fine-fraction K‒Ar dating and illite crystallinity determination were applied on a peculiar pale olive green shale sample from the upper Ediacaran Indreelva Member (Stáhpogieddi Formation, Vestertana Group, Gaissa Nappe Complex) of the Digermulen Peninsula in Finnmark, Arctic Norway, to constrain the age and metamorphic conditions of tectono-thermal overprint. The <2 and <0.2 µm grain-size fractions ...
    • Late Ediacaran occurrences of the organic-walled microfossils Granomarginata and flask-shaped Lagoenaforma collaris gen. et sp. nov. 

      Agić, Heda; Högström, Anette; Jensen, Sören; Ebbestad, Jan Ove R.; Vickers-Rich, Patricia; Hall, Michael; Matthews, Jack J.; Meinhold, Guido; Høyberget, Magne; Taylor, Wendy L. (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-11-12)
      New occurrences of flask-shaped and envelope-bearing microfossils, including the predominantly Cambrian taxon Granomarginata, are reported from new localities, as well as from earlier in time (Ediacaran) than previously known. The stratigraphic range of Granomarginata extends into the Cambrian System, where it had a cosmopolitan distribution. This newly reported Ediacaran record includes areas from ...
    • A new large mound dwelling chiton (Mollusca), from the Late Ordovician Boda Limestone of central Sweden 

      Högström, Anette; Ebbestad, Jan Ove R.; Suzuki, Yutaro (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2020-09-24)
      A new rare Upper Ordovician mound dwelling palaeoloricate chiton is described as <i>Crassaplax collicola</i> gen. et sp. nov. from three large isolated intermediate valves from the Katian carbonate mud mounds of the Boda Limestone in the Siljan district of central Sweden. Together with the previously known <i>Spicuchelodes</i>? sp., also from the Boda Limestone, these are the only known Late Ordovician ...
    • Organically-preserved multicellular eukaryote from the late Neoproterozoic Nyborg Formation, Arctic Norway. 

      Agic, Heda; Högström, Anette; Moczydlowska, Malgorzata; Jensen, Sören; Palacios, Teodoro; Meinhold, Guido; Ebbestad, Jan Ove R.; Taylor, Wendy L.; Høyberget, Magne (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019-10-10)
      Eukaryotic multicellularity originated in the Mesoproterozoic Era and evolved multiple times since, yet early multicellular fossils are scarce until the terminal Neoproterozoic and often restricted to cases of exceptional preservation. Here we describe unusual organically-preserved fossils from mudrocks, that provide support for the presence of organisms with differentiated cells (potentially an ...
    • U-Pb dating of calcite in ancient carbonates for age estimates of syn-to post-depositional processes: A case study from the upper Ediacaran strata of Finnmark, Arctic Norway 

      Meinhold, Guido; Roberts, Nick M.W.; Arslan, Arzu; Jensen, Sören; Ebbestad, Jan Ove R.; Högström, Anette; Høyberget, Magne; Agić, Heda; Palacios, Teodoro; Taylor, Wendy L. (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2020-06-10)
      Results of in situ U–Pb dating of calcite spherulites, cone-in-cone (CIC) calcite and calcite fibres from a calcareous concretion of the upper Ediacaran of Finnmark, Arctic Norway, are reported. Calcite spherulites from the innermost layers of the concretion yielded a lower intercept age of 563 ± 70 Ma, which, although imprecise, is within uncertainty of the age of sedimentation based on fossil ...
