  <dc:description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Nicoll et al. (1999,&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;i&gt;Brigham Young University Geology Studies 44,&lt;/i&gt;&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;27&amp;ndash;101) published the taxonomy of species of the ramiform conodont&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;i&gt;Iapetognathus&lt;/i&gt;&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;Landing in Fortey et al. (1982,&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;i&gt;The Cambrian&amp;ndash;Ordovician boundary: sections, fossil distributions, and correlations&lt;/i&gt;&lt;span&gt;, National Museum of Wales, Geological Series No. 3, Cardiff, 95&amp;ndash;129) and its ancestor&lt;/span&gt;&lt;i&gt;Iapetonudus&lt;/i&gt;&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;Nicoll et al., 1999. Cooper et al. (2001,&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;i&gt;Episodes 24&lt;/i&gt;&lt;span&gt;, 19&amp;ndash;28) used the First Appearance Datum of&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;i&gt;Iapetognathus fluctivagus&lt;/i&gt;&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;Nicoll et al., 1999 to mark the base of the Ordovician System at Green Point, Newfoundland. Terfelt et al. (2012,&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;i&gt;Lethaia 45&lt;/i&gt;&lt;span&gt;, 227&amp;ndash;237) re-evaluated&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;i&gt;Iapetognathus&lt;/i&gt;&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;at Green Point and made several taxonomic and stratigraphic conclusions, nearly all of which we refute herein.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</dc:description>
