The cephalopods of the Kullsberg Limestone Formation, Upper Ordovician, central Sweden and the effects of reef diversification on cephalopod diversity

The cephalopods collected from the mud mounds of the Kullsberg Limestone Formation, late Sandbian–earliest Katian(?), south central Sweden, are highly diverse and comprise 26 identifiable species of 12 families and six orders in a sample of c. 180 specimens. The assemblage is strongly dominated by orthocerids in abundance and diversity. In contrast, the time-equivalent assemblage of the reef limestone of the Vasalemma Formation of Estonia is...
