An association of silicified spicules of hexactinellid sponges was collected from Silurian sandstones at the top of the La Chilca Formation, cropping out at Cerro del Fuerte, 20 km east of Jáchal, in the San Juan Precordillera ...

Unusually well-preserved spicule assemblages from three Lower to Middle Ordovician localities are examined: Spitsbergen (Floian-Dapingian), Nevada (Vinini Formation, Dapingian) and Newfoundland (Cow Head Group, Tremadocian-lower ...

The record of Middle to Upper Ordovician sponges outside Laurentia and north-Gondwana (=Australia) is too sparse that any new record significantly contribute to the global diversity and biogeographic knowledge of the group ...

Freshwater sponge spicules were analyzed as a paleoenvironmental proxy indicator in five cores of ponds and alluvial fan sediments in the Upper Paraná River's left bank, near Querência do Norte town, northwestern of State ...

Understanding the physiology of penile spicules in guinea pigs (Cavia porcellus) may improve their management in large-scale production guinea systems. Here we examined whether penis spicule development depends on testosterone ...
