A recently discovered graptoloid, Dicellograptus uncatus n.sp., is described from the Blue Mountain Formation of southern Ontario, Canada. This species is characterized by an axial angle of 120–180° and a prominent, hook-shaped virgella. Dicellograptus uncatus n.sp. is Late Ordovician in age and occurs in the Paraclimacograptus manitoulinensis Zone.

ABSTRACTTwo Ordovician plectambonitoid genera, Alwynella and Grorudia, occur in drill core sections of Latvia in the East Baltic, and in exposures and loose blocks on the Swedish Island of Öland in the Baltic Sea. The new material confirms differences between the two taxa that are assigned herein to separate families, Alwynellidae fam. nov. and Grorudiidae Cocks & Rong, 1989. In particular, the undercut cardinalia separates Alwynella from Grorudia and indicates its proximity to the sowerbyellids. The genus Grorudia, which is externally similar to Alwynella, is more closely related to the palaeostrophomenines. A new species Grorudia morrisoni sp. nov. is established in the East Baltic. The specimens from Öland are included tentatively within the genus Grorudia due to lack of interiors. Both Alwynella and Grorudia were confined to deeper-water facies in the Baltic palaeobasin, within successions ranging in age from latest Mid (late Llanvirn) to earliest Late Ordovician (mid Caradoc).

AbstractA new crinoid association reported from the Kope Formation (Katian, Ordovician) of northern Kentucky and southwestern Ohio changes the model for facies distribution of crinoids along an Ordovician onshore-offshore depth gradient. Glyptocrinus nodosus n. sp., Plicodendrocrinus casei (Meek, 1871), Cincinnaticrinus varibrachialis (Warn and Strimple, 1977), and Ectenocrinus simplex (Hall, 1847) are reported from a suspension-feeding assemblage with 26 taxa. This assemblage developed above an argillaceous packstone with most of the fossils preserved in shale. The fauna was comprised principally of secondary epifaunally tiered suspension feeders, deposit feeders, and predators. This is the first reported occurrence of Glyptocrinus Hall, 1847 and Plicodendrocrinus Brower, 1995 from the Kope Formation (lower Cincinnatian), and Glyptocrinus is represented by a new species, G. nodosus. Also, this is the first report of pinnulate camerate crinoids from the deep-water facies of the Kope Formation. Thus, deep-water Cincinnatian crinoid assemblages were comprised of disparids, cladids, and camerates; and the assemblage was characterized by a variety of filtration fan types for acquisition of resources.

AbstractAdults of Geayia ontarioensis n. sp. are described. Members of this species exhibit character states of the tibia of the pedipalp and of the legs characteristic of Geayia (s.s.), but differ from all other members of the subgenus in having 5 rather than 4 pairs of genital acetabula. A revised diagnosis of Geayia (s.s.) is presented.

AbstractPhilometra kobuleji (Nematoda: Philometridae) is described as a new species from the abdominal cavity of a North American freshwater fish, Catostomits commersoni.During a parasitological survey on stream fishes of Southern Ontario, males and females of a Philometra species were collected from white suckers, Catostomus commersoni (Laédpéde). This parasite differs from all known Philometra species recorded by Hoffman (1967) in North America.

A New Species

Upper Ordovician carbonate beds within clastic strata of the Road River Group, northern Yukon Territory, have yielded 403 conodont elements representing 25 species; 19 of these are illustrated. Genera present are Amorphognathus, Belodina, Besselodus, Drepanoistodus, Eocarniodus?, Gamachignathus, Icriodella, Noixodontus, Oulodus, Panderodus s.l., Paroistodus?, Plectodina, Protopanderodus, Pseudobelodina s.l., Scabbardella, Strachanognathus, and Walliserodus. The apparatus of new genus A new species A includes a symmetrical and bifurrowed rastrate element.Sparse conodont faunas from Rock River occur in strata below a level bearing graptolites of the D. ornatus Zone and between this zone and the succeeding P. pacificus Zone. These conodonts have a range of "Trentonian" –Gamachian (upper Caradoc –Hirnantian).The fauna from Blackstone River is from a single bed that is 3 m below the G. persculptus Zone? and 13.7 m above the P. pacificus Zone. Although stratigraphically closer to the former, this fauna may be equivalent to a level within the P. pacificus Zone; the conodonts suggest correlation with the late Richmondian Fauna 12 and the lower G. ensifer Zone of Anticosti Island, Quebec. A similar fauna (G. ensifer Zone) occurs in one horizon within the P. pacificus Zone at upper Peel River. One metre above this is the informal D. cf. D. mirus graptolite biohorizon (P. pacificus Zone).The Blackstone and Peel faunas equate to a level within the Ordovician Anceps bands C and D of the Ordovician–Silurian boundary stratotype at Dob's Linn, Scotland. The interval of Fauna 13 and the Gamachian Stage may correspond to Anceps Band E and the C.? extraordinarius Band (and contiguous strata) at Dob's Linn. The base of the G. ensifer Zone and the higher base of the Gamachian are probably late Rawtheyan.

Interest in this insect was first aroused by the reports of Felt (1926a, 1926b) and York (1933), who attributed injury to several species of pines in the State of New York to Hylobius pales (Hbst.). Later it became apparent that the injury reported was not caused by H. pales, but by a new species that Huchanan (1934) described as H. radicis. This insect was first reported in Canada at Angus, Ont. (Wallace, 1954), and has since become abundant in pine plantations totalling about 500 acres in Simcoe County. This County supports the principal infestations in Ontario, but other widely separated infestations have been reported near Sault Ste. Marie and from five plantations totalling 50 acres in Renfrew County. H. radicis is now known to be widely distributed. In addition to New York State and Ontario, the insect has been reported from Virginia, Massachusetts, Connecticut, Pennsylvania, Michigan, Minnesota, Wisconsin, and Manitoba.
