This database
contains exclusively published data on the taxonomy, regional and
stratigraphical distribution of rudist bivalves. It was compiled with the
database system Paleotax,
a very recommendable tool for palaeontologists. The compilation of published
information is not yet completed. A few publications affecting the synonymy
or nomenclature of certain species may have remained unrecorded at the present
stage. The database will be updated regularly. |
