...Jacques Blot; Daniel Heyler Abstract Paramblypterus decorus, a fossil fish occurring abundantly in the Stephanian (upper Carboniferous) of the Commentry basin near Montlucon in central France, differs from most palaeoniscids in having no teeth on the maxillary and the mandible. Instead...

... appears to have been the abundant palaeoniscid fish of the Frederick Brook Member, which are here confirmed as fresh-water lake inhabitants. The possibility of finding similar oil- or gas-bearing lake beds in hitherto-neglected areas of continental deposition is apparent. Fig. 5. Weldon redbeds...

... and Palaeoniscides species are already known from the lower Autunian, but those reported here are from the middle or upper Autunian. Also found in the Saxonian deposits are footprints of small tetrapods (amphibians or reptiles), mollusks, ripple marks, mud cracks, raindrop impressions, and the like, all indicating...

.... Limestone beds are fossiliferous, locally dominated by either bivalves or ostracodes, and exhibit a micritic matrix (wackestone to packstone). The bivalves, Naiadites and Curvirimula , typically are disarticulated, fragmented, crushed, and randomly oriented. Fish skeletal material including palaeoniscid...

The fish fossils occur as isolated elements and articulated skeletons and include groenlandaspidid and phyllolepid placoderms, gyracanthid acanthodians, palaeoniscid actinopterygians, and several taxa of osteolepiform sarcopterygians.
