title: Lunulite bryozoan biogeography – a convergent global success with a distinct Western Australian twist
abstract: Abstract Lunulites are a polyphyletic group of marine bryozoans that have been a conspicuous element of marine shelf faunas since the Late Cretaceous into the present day. They are easily recognizable by their domed colony form and free-living mode of life on sea floor sediments. Here we explore the waxing and waning of the major lunulitiform groups and their unique morphology and mode of life from the Cretaceous to the present day. Because relatively few and simple modifications are needed to t
