The small outcrop area of the formation in eastern Suffolk belies its great historical and scientific importance. Approximately 140 species of cyclostome and cheilostome bryozoans occur in the Coralline Crag, many with interesting ecologies, palaeoclimatic significance or unusual biogeographical distributions. However, the Coralline Crag bryozoan fauna has remained unrevised since the publication in 1859 of George Busk{\textquoteright}s seminal monograph, although some taxonomic groups have been treated individually. Bryozoan evidence points to a warmer sea during Coralline Crag deposition than that of the present day. Preliminary data indicate that slightly more than half of the bryozoan species in the Coralline Crag are extinct, with a higher proportion of extinct species among the cyclostomes than the cheilostomes. Several of the more distinctive bryozoans in the Coralline Crag, including the massive cyclostomes Blumenbachium and Meandropora, as well as Heteropora, ?Retihornera and Melicerita, appear most closely related to bryozoans no longer inhabiting British waters but still living in the southern hemisphere. The Coralline Crag represents one of the last examples of a formerly more widespread bryozoan fauna dispersed via the Tethys before climatic deterioration brought about widespread extinctions.}, url = {https://www.dropbox.com/s/plhtqulpcg2bt8y/Taylor\%20\&\%20Taylor\%202012\%20Crag.pdf}, author = {Taylor, P.D. and Taylor, A.B.} } @article {1812, title = {Arctic species of the cheilostome bryozoan Microporella, with a redescription of the type species}, journal = {Journal of Natural History }, volume = {42}, year = {2008}, chapter = {1893}, author = {Kukli{\'n}ski, Piotr and Taylor, P.D.} } @article {1528, title = {Evolving mineralogy of cheilostome bryozoans}, journal = {Palaios}, volume = {24}, year = {2009}, chapter = {440}, author = {Taylor, P.D. and James, N.P. and Bone, Y. and Kukli{\'n}ski, Piotr and Kyser, T.K.} } @article {1276, title = {Sir Charles Lyell{\textquoteright}s fossil bryozoans from Gran Canaria}, journal = {P.N.

First described from the Pliocene Coralline Crag of Suffolk in England, it has since been reported from many European fossil localities. It has also been recorded from the Tertiary and Recent of New Zealand. Here we revise H. striata and some other non-fenestrate species of Hornera described by Busk (1859) and Mongereau (1972) from the Coralline Crag. Hornera lagaaiji Mongereau, 1972 from the Coralline Crag has autozooidal apertures more distantly spaced than H. striata but is otherwise very similar to this species and is placed into synonymy, as are Coralline Crag specimens identified by Busk (1859) as H. frondiculata Lamouroux, 1821. Another Coralline Crag species, H. humilis Busk, 1859, is characterized by small colony and zooid size, and is also unusual in having autozooids opening on the outside of the cone of branches. No gonozooids have been found in any of the Coralline Crag species of Hornera, despite a high incidence of colony bases implying recruitment from larvae rather than through clonal fragmentation. Recent records of H. striata from New Zealand appear to represent misidentifications of Hornera robusta MacGillivray, 1883, while the first report of this British species from New Zealand, from the Miocene Orakei Greensand Member, is provisionally assigned to H. lunularis Stoliczka, 1865.}, author = {Smith, A.M. and Taylor, P.D. and Milne, Rory} } @article {24, title = {Systematics of the Miocene-Recent bryozoan genus Pentapora (Cheilostomata)}, journal = {Zoological Journal of the Linnaean Society}, volume = {160}, year = {2010}, chapter = {17}, author = {Lombardi, Chiara and Taylor, P.D. and Cocito, Silvia} } @article {21, title = {Hippoporidra edax (Busk, 1859) and a revision of some fossil and living Hippoporidra (Bryozoa)}, journal = {Bulletin of the British Museum (Natural History) (Geology)}, volume = {35}, year = {1981}, month = {03/1981}, chapter = {243}, issn = {0007-1471}, author = {Taylor, P.D. and Cook, P.L.} } @article {11, title = {Palaeobiology and systematics of large cyclostome bryozoans from the Pliocene Coralline Crag of Suffolk}, journal = {Palaeontology}, volume = {25}, year = {1982}, month = {07/1982}, chapter = {529}, abstract = {Bioclastic sands of the Coralline Crag are characterized by abundant bryozoans including large colonies of four cyclostomes: Blumenbachium globosum Koenig, Meandropora aurantium (Milne Edwards in Lyell), M. tubipora (Busk), and Multifascigera debenensis sp. nov. These species are systematically described and the relationships investigated between colony growth pattern, form, and inferred ecology. Colonies of each species are composed of numerous subcolonies bounded by exterior walls. Times of autonomous subcolony growth were punctuated by periods of subcolony anastomosis. Most colonies acquired a roughly hemispherical shape but others developed a subspheroidal form. The former apparently retained a stable attitude during growth whereas the latter either enveloped an unstable substrate (circumrotatory growth) or were attached to a perishable substrate which supported the colony above the sea-bed. Colonies are absent from the turbulent sandwave facies of the Coralline Crag but are present in other facies where mobile animals rather than currents may have been responsible for overturning circumrotatory colonies. Evolution of exterior wall-bounded subcolonies, known in many post-Palaeozoic cyclostomes, was possible because interzooidal pores allowed soft tissue connection between subcolonies beneath the colony surface when soft tissue was absent above it. The localization of coelomic damage may have been a factor in the success of this type of organization.}, issn = {0031-0239}, url = {http://palaeontology.palass-pubs.org/pdf/Vol\%2025/Pages\%20529-554.pdf}, author = {Balson, Peter S. and Taylor, P.D.} }
