The great diversity of ostracod applications in biology and palaeontology is clearly illustrated by eighteen papers from the 15th International Symposium on Ostracoda. Collectively, the contributions provide a comprehensive update of ongoing research and the latest findings in ostracod sciences. You’ll learn how ostracods are used as model groups in a variety of research studies, ranging from evolutionary biology to climate change.

Describes the late Middle Devonian ostracodes found in two selected diamond drill cores from Lambton County, Ontario. The study area has lithologies and ostracode fauna typical of other similarly aged strata of the Michigan Basin, and the study permits stratigraphic correlation across an area extending over south-western Ontario, western New York, northern Ohio, and the southern peninsula of Michigan. The introductory sections discuss ostracode faunas of the Michigan Basin & bordering areas and the ostracode biostratigraphy of the Hamilton Group strata. The main section presents a systematic palaeontology of ostracode species, with species descriptions arranged by order, family, and genus.
