“…Within the Superfamily Discinoidea there are morphological similarities between the extinct genus Orbiculoidea and several extant genera with relatively wide spatial distributions (e.g. Discina Lamarck, , Discinisca Dall, , Discradisca Stenzel, and Pelagodiscus Dall, ). Therefore, even though there is a significant temporal gap, the living examples can be used to model the potential life habits of the extinct forms.…”

The Palaeozoic Era is a particularly interesting period of Earth history, as it includes the formation and northward movement of a supercontinent (Pangea), dramatic climatic changes and global biotic catastrophes. Here, we analyse the palaeobiogeographical distribution of the discinid brachiopod genus Orbiculoidea and discuss its distributional patterns in light of the environmental changes that occurred throughout the Palaeozoic and the Triassic. Our results indicate that the distribution of the genus seems to have been controlled mainly by the palaeogeographical framework and by global climate change. Importantly, its spatial pattern appears to directly respond both to the formation and northward movement of Pangea and to global temperature fluctuations during the Palaeozoic. In conjunction with these two global parameters, it is likely that the distribution of Orbiculoidea was also affected by regional factors, including the presence of oceanic upwelling as well as the development and demise of continental shelves and seaways.

“…Discradisca has a known stratigraphic range of Early Paleocene to Recent (Stenzel 1964), but has not previously been reported from New Zealand. Recent Discradisca strigata is known from rocky shore localities in Baja California (Paine 1962), where it lives under flat rocks both above and below the low tide zone, and Punta Patilla, Panama (La Barbera 1985) where it occurs under rocky overhangs and in crevices in the mid-intertidal zone.…”

A Late Oligocene rocky shore fauna from Cosy Dell farm, Southland, is shown to include six brachiopod genera and species and, for the first time, records the co-existence of a discinid, a craniid and a kraussinid in such a paleoecological setting in New Zealand. This study includes the first reported occurrence of Discradisca in New Zealand and extends the stratigraphic range of species Megerlina miracula Hiller, MacKinnon & Nielsen, 2008 back to the late Oligocene. In addition, this study confirms the occurrence of M. miracula in very shallow-water deposits.
