Cetiocaridae

Cetiocaridae (meaning "whale shrimp") is a clade of radiodont, an extinct stem-group arthropods. The group was named after the Bearded Ceticaris (Cetimimus barbus)[1] in the speculative paleoart book All Your Yesterdays by John Meszaros.[2] In later studies the group was renamed as a radiodont family Tamisiocarididae.[3][4]

Description

Like most radiodonts, cetiocarids have spiny frontal appendages, but in this family the auxiliary spines are fine and densely-arranged, which are modified for use in filter feeding like modern basking sharks and mysticete whales. For example, Tamisocaris is estimated to have fed on prey roughly a millimeter in size.[5]

Phylogenetic relationships of Tamisiocarididae[5]

Tamisiocarididae was originally named Cetiocaridae. In the 2013 speculative paleoart book All Your Yesterdays, paleoartist John Meszaros depicted a hypothetical filter-feeding anomalocaridid he named "Ceticaris". This artwork inspired the name of Cetiocaridae.[5] However, as no genus "Cetiocaris" actually exists, the name Cetiocaridae does not comply with article 29 of the International Code of Zoological Nomenclature and is invalid.[6] The family Tamisiocarididae was subsequently devised as a replacement name for the clade.[7] Cetiocaridae was originally defined phylogenetically as all species more closely related to Tamisiocaris borealis than to Anomalocaris canadensis, Amplectobelua symbrachiata, or Hurdia victoria.[5]

Distribution

Tamisocaridid fossils have been found in the Emu Bay Shale of Australia, Sirius Passet lagerstätte of Greenland, and Kinzers Formation of the United States.[7] Their fossils date to stage 3 and stage 4 of the Cambrian.

gollark: The actual system logic is mostly offline but it will throw tons of errors when it tries to check for updates and such.
gollark: It *can* run without an internet connection, it just might complain.
gollark: The biggest challenge would probably be making PotatOS *not* just assume internet connectivity; a lot of it assumes it can just randomly fire off HTTP requests.
gollark: Anyway, PotatOS for x86 would also ship with emulated peripherals if I can somehow make that work, for things like modems (would be translated into multicast UDP packets or something), speakers (probably not with the actual MC sound library), and disk drives.
gollark: I see.
