In order to maximize the utility of future studies of trilobite ontogeny, we propose a set of standard practices that relate to the collection, nomenclature, description, depiction, and interpretation of ontogenetic series inferred from articulated specimens belonging to individual species. In some cases, these suggestions may also apply to ontogenetic studies of other fossilized taxa.

铰接式三叶虫个体发育：方法学标准建议

为了最大限度地发挥三叶虫个体发育未来研究的效用，我们提出了一套标准实践，这些实践与从属于单个物种的关节标本推断的个体发育系列的收集、命名、描述、描述和解释有关。在某些情况下，这些建议也可能适用于其他化石类群的个体发育研究。
