Description
Table 1. Summary of systematic designations of tubes from ancient hydrothermal vent and cold seep environments.
| Fossil vent/seep tubes | Previous assignment | Current assignment | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Rocky Knob | ? Siboglinidae (Saether 2011) | Annelida incertae sedis | Not resolved by PCA or cladistics, broadly resemble vestimentiferan tubes. |
| Upper Waiau River | - | Animalia incertae sedis | Not resolved by more conservative cladistic analysis (Fig. 23A); missing data and surface concretions make them difficult to place. |
| Bexhaven | - | Serpulidae | Well preserved calcareous walls, resolved near serpulids by all analyses. |
| West Fork Satsop River | - | ?Siboglinidae | Less conservative cladistic analysis (Fig. 23B) suggests possible siboglinid affinity. |
| Murdock Creek | - | ?Siboglinidae | Less conservative cladistic analysis (Fig. 23B) suggests possible siboglinid affinity. |
| Canyon River | Siboglinidae vestimentiferan (Goedert et al. 2000) | ? Siboglinidae?vestimentiferan | Not resolved by cladistic analyses; however, closely resemble vestimentiferan tubes. |
| Bear River | - | Animalia incertae sedis | Outer morphology of these tubes could not be assessed. |
| Omagari | Siboglinidae vestimentiferan (Hikida et al. 2003) | ? Siboglinidae?vestimentiferan | Less conservative cladistic analysis (Fig. 23B) suggests possible siboglinid affinity; resembles vestimentiferan roots. |
| Okukinenbetsu yellow tubes | - | Annelida incertae sedis | Not resolved by cladistic analyses; outer morphology suggests likely annelid affinity. |
| Okukinenbetsu brown tubes | - | ?Siboglinidae | Less conservative cladistic analysis (Fig. 23B) suggests possible siboglinid affinity. |
| Troodos collared tubes | Siboglinidae vestimentiferan (Little et al. 1999b) | ? Siboglinidae?vestimentiferan | Less conservative cladistic analysis (Fig. 23B) suggests possible siboglinid affinity. Also resemble serpulid tubes, but resemble siboglinid tubes more closely. |
| Troodos wrinkled tubes | Siboglinidae vestimentiferan (Little et al. 1999b) | Siboglinidae vestimentiferan | Resolved near vestimentiferans by all analyses. |
| Troodos attached tubes | Siboglinidae vestimentiferan (Little et al. 1999b) | Annelida incertae sedis | Less conservative cladistic analysis (Fig. 23B) suggests possible siboglinid affinity, but cluster near serpulids in PCA plot. Characters consistent with both annelid families. |
| Christopher Fm. – Ellef Ringnes Island | Serpulidae (Beauchamp & Savard 1992), vestimentiferan (Williscroft et al. 2017) | ? Siboglinidae?vestimentifera | Less conservative cladistic analysis (Fig. 23B) suggests possible vestimentiferan affinity. |
| Christopher Fm. – Prince Patrick Island | Serpulidae (Beauchamp & Savard 1992) | ? Siboglinidae?vestimentifera | Less conservative cladistic analysis (Fig. 23B) suggests possible vestimentiferan affinity. |
| Cold Fork Cottonwood Creek | ? Siboglinidae?vestimentifera (Campbell et al. 2002) | Annelida incertae sedis | Cladistic analyses suggest possible chaetopterid affinity but outer tube morphology could not be assessed. |
| Wilbur Springs | - | Animalia incertae sedis | Poorly preserved walls; single tube for which outer morphology could be assessed resembles scaphopod. |
| Svalbard | ? Siboglinidae?vestimentiferan (Hammer et al. 2011; Hryniewicz et al. 2015) | Annelida incertae sedis | Do not clearly group within a modern annelid family in cladistic analyses, although one tube resembles those of siboglinids in section. |
| Figueroa | Siboglinidae vestimentiferan | Siboglinidae vestimentifera | Resolved among vestimentiferans by all analyses. |
| (Little et al. 2004) | |||
| Tevidestus serriformis | Siboglinidae vestimentiferan | Annelida incertae sedis | Group near chaetopterid tubes in more conservative cladistic analysis |
| (Little et al. 1999 c; | (Fig. 23 A); unresolved by less conservative cladistic analysis. Also | ||
| Shpanskaya et al. 1999) | resemble siboglinid tubes in some respects. | ||
| Indeterminate annelid Sibay | ? Annelida incertae sedis | ? Annelida incertae sedis | Unresolved by cladistic analyses; tubes possibly resemble those of |
| (Little et al. 1999 c) | annelids more than those of other tubicolous animals. | ||
| Eoalvinellodes annulatus | Annelida incertae sedis | Animalia incertae sedis | Less conservative cladistic analysis (Fig. 23 B), suggests possible |
| (Little et al. 1999 c) | chaetopterid affinity, but morphology consistent with several | ||
| annelid and potentially non-annelid lineages. | |||
| Yamankasia rifeia | Siboglinidae vestimentiferan | Animalia incertae sedis | Group with frenulates in cladistic analyses, but the combination of |
| (Little et al. 1999 c; | large size and fine parallel wrinkles does not closely resemble any | ||
| Shpanskaya et al. 1999) | of the modern annelid tubes investigated. |
