Observaciones sobre algunos criterios tafonómicos usados en la interpretación de asociaciones malacológicas fósiles.
1984
In the present paper a revision of some taphonomic criteria commonly used in the interpretation of fossil mollusca assemblages is realized . The field work on living and death assemblages of mollusca in a shallow muddy bottom has been carried out in the coast near Denia (Alicante, Spain). Although the supposed lineal relation between specific abundance and probability of autochthony could explain the structure of part of the considered assemblages, in other a clear disagreement due to a massive incursion of youth elements in observed . By other hand, the possibility of horizontal transport not detectable by these means (anonymous alochtonic fluxes) imposes another limitation to the pretende…
Observaciones sobre algunos caracteres de valor taxonómico en el grupo de los carófitos
1990
The variability of the microstructurals characters and mineralogical composition of the oogonia of some charophytes extant and fossils is described. Two types of microstructures (W & V) are find. These are conservative into populations and are not able to change by the environmental factors. Moreover, these structures are quite constant in some of the phylogenetics groups studied. Consequently it is proposed its utilization in taxonomy. The apparition of original compounds in the Charophyta (vaterite. whewelite, aragonite, etc.) is important because it supports an old idea that considerates the Charophyta as an autonomous class between the Clorophyta and the Traqueophyta.<br><b…
Algunos aspectos de la variabilidad de los oogonios en poblaciones actuales del género <i>Chara</i> (Charophyceae). Aplicación paleontoló…

A critical revision of some useful taxonomic criteria in paleontology of Charophytes is carried Out. The results are based in four modern populations ((<i>Chara aculeolata, Chara</i> aff.<i>baltica, Chara delicatula</i> and <i>Chara globularis</i>) and they permit to make some serious objections to these critera. The results are related with three principal aspects: the meaning of the absolute magnitudes of me girogonite, the behaviour of his joint variation and the morphological variability during the calcification process. In general, and for each one of the four populations, an absence of influence of the position of the girogonite over their measureme…
