164 ADVANCES IN PALAEOICHTHYOLOGY Acknowledgements. - Dr. Valentina Karatajūtė -Talimaa was generous with the contribution of unique and valued material from Central Asia, instructing in thin section making technique and providing indispensable advices. Dr. Alain Blieck provided the opportunity to work in the Laboratory of Palaeozoic Palaeontology and Palaeogeography (CNRS research unit UMR 8014), University of Science and Technology of Lille, and to study the material with the environmental SEM (with X-microanalysis and digital imaging) as well as with high-resolution photonic microscopes. Prof. Daniel Goujet, Dr. Vincent Dupret kindly allowed to explore articulated thelodont material in the National Museum of Natural History in Paris. Dr. Grazina Skridlaite and the Institute of Geology and Geography promoted the internship in Lille and Paris. Drs Tiiu Märss, Ervīns Lukševičs and Susan Turner helped greatly by making critical remarks on the manuscript. The contribution of all the above-mentioned persons and institutions are gratefully acknowledged. References Berg L. S. 1938. Ancient freshwater fishes. Priroda, 7-8, p. 149-150. [In Russian].
