A redescription of the endemic antiarch placoderm Asterolepis thule from the Middle Devonian (Givetian) of Shetland and its biostratigraphical horizon
The Givetian (Middle Devonian) antiarch Asterolepis thule was first described in 1932 and its stratigraphical horizon was poorly understood as were all the Devonian deposits in the SE of Shetland (South East Shetland Group). Since that time a greater understanding of the age of these deposits has been made. This, coupled with the greater clarity of the biostratigraphy of the Devonian of Scotland and its correlation with the Baltic Devonian, has allowed the species to be placed in a biostratigraphical zonation. The species is confined to Sumburgh Head and so appears endemic. Other species are also endemic and there are some relict fauna in the South East Shetland Group. This suggests that the South East Shetland Group fauna originated mostly in isolation to the main depositional areas of the Givetian in Scotland and elsewhere, although some species are more cosmopolitan.
期刊介绍：
Although published only since 1965, the Scottish Journal of Geology has a long pedigree. It is the joint publication of the Geological Society of Glasgow and the Edinburgh Geological Society, which prior to 1965 published separate Transactions: from 1860 in the case of Glasgow and 1863 for Edinburgh.
Traditionally, the Journal has acted as the focus for papers on all aspects of Scottish geology and its contiguous areas, including the surrounding seas. The publication policy has always been outward looking, with the Editors encouraging review papers and papers on broader aspects of the Earth sciences that cannot be discussed solely in terms of Scottish geology.
The diverse geology of Scotland continues to provide an important natural laboratory for the study of earth sciences; many seminal studies in geology have been carried out on Scottish rocks, and over the years the results of much of this work had been published in the Journal and its predecessors.
The Journal fully deserves its high reputation worldwide and intends to maintain its status in the front rank of publications in the Earth sciences.
