Late Devonian Goniatites (Cephalopoda, Ammonoidea) from New York State - BAP #374
This paper is a revision of the classic nineteenth century goniatite collections from the Devonian of New York State described by James Hall and John M. Clarke. Type material is illustrated photographically, mostly for the first time; the taxonomy is revised, and ontogenetic and statistical data are given, where possible. Detailed biostratigraphic work is reported through the late Givetian, Frasnian, and Famennian, aimed at determining the precise horizon and location of primary material at 184 localities. A description of the considerable additional goniatite material is integrated with that of the classic type specimens to treat the faunas systematically and as a whole.
