strata of the central Russian Platform,
where polygnathids prevail. The conodont
assemblages from the shallowwater
and basinal sections of the Volga-
Ural province and Southern Timan are
analyzed. Problems and difficulties associated
with the correlation of the shallow-water
and deep-water Frasnian sections
of the eastern Russian Platform
and their correlation with the existing
zonal conodont scales are discussed. The
correlation between the deep-water
Mendym deposits and the shallow-water
Rechitza and Voronezh strata of the
Volga-Ural province with the Vetlasyan
and Sirachoi deposits of the Southern
Timan is substantiated. The stratotype of
the Semiluki Regional Stage of the Central
Devonian Field contains equivalents
of the lowermost beds of the Domanik
Formation (unit 1), based entirely on polygnathids.
Phylogenetic reconstructions
for Palmatolepis and Polygnathus are
suggested based on the ontogenetic series
for some species of these two genera
and the presence of transitional forms
between some of the species. Based on
these phylogenetic reconstructions,
conodont zonal scales for the shallowwater
and deep-water sections of the
Frasnian Stage of the Russian Platform
are proposed and their correlation with
the existing conodont zonal scales is
also adduced. Some aspects of biofacies
control are considered based on the distribution
of conodonts in the sections
studied. In Systematic Paleontology, 91
conodont species of the genera Ancyrodella,
Mesotaxis, Palmatolepis, and
Polygnathus are described, including the
new species Palmatolepis menneri, P.
kaledai, P. acutangularis, and Polygnathus
reitlingerae.

Five functional types are recognized
among Late Paleozoic conodont elements;
they are distinguished by morphological
and histological characteristics:
grasping-holding, filtering, cutting,
crushing, and grinding. Combinations of
functional types of elements form functional
types of conodont apparatuses, the
main of which are filtering, graspingcutting,
grasping-pressing, graspingcutting-grinding,
and grasping-cuttingcrushing
apparatuses.

the morphology and systematics of hyolithelminthes

Phosphatic structures are discovered
in the tube interior of the hyolithelminth
species Hyolithellus vitricus from the
Lower Cambrian of the Siberian Platform.
Anatomic interpretation of these
structures suggests that these small-sized
shelly fossils represent the earliest
worm-shaped organisms probably
closely related to modern Nemathelminthes.
