Evolutionary trends of myalinid shells represented by species from Pennsylvanian and Lower Permian strata of the midcontinent region. The form ratio (shell length to shell height) of species is plotted against the ratio of angle beta to angle alpha (inserted diagram A). Taking account of stratigraphic occurrence, two main trends seem to be derived from Myalina lepta of Desmoinesian age (data from Newell 1942)..
