Counts of individuals are inappropriate for skeletalized colonial organisms because of modularity and fragmentation, and the sizes of sexually mature bryozoan colonies range over several orders of magnitude. Therefore, skeletal mass was taken as an appropriate proxy for abundance or biomass [W. I. Ausich, Ohio J. Sci. 81, 268 (1981); G. Staff, E. N. Powell, R. J. Stanton Jr., H. Cummins, Lethaia 18, 209 (1985)]. We stress that this proxy is potentially subject to taphonomic bias and is strictly empirical. Competitive dominance in the once-living community requires different bases of inference.

All bryozoan fragments retained on 0.5-mm and larger screens were picked from 60 entire disaggregated 0.3-to 3.0-kg samples or, where bryozoans were extraordinarily abundant, from subsamples; fragments were sorted on the basis of clade, and total mass for each clade was determined directly or calculated on the basis of subsamples. Species that produce colony fragments typically smaller than 0.5 mm have not been included in most previous studies of bryozoan species diversity [summarized in (13)]. We have excluded such small size fragments from our calculations of relative skeletal mass as well; these fractions are subject to winnowing in many recent bryozoan habitats and are rarely derived from the ecologically dominant taxa. Nonetheless, small colonies of cyclostomes and cheilostomes may be numerous in some environments (E. Håkansson, personal communication). Our data were supplemented by data in O. Berthelsen, Danmarks Geol. Unders. 83, 1 (1962) and A. H. Cheetham, Smithsonian Contrib. Paleobiol. 6, 1 (1971). Some variation in the data inevitably results from variable amounts of cement or of matrix or shell fragments. Cyclostomes tend to have thinner walls than do cheilostomes, and raw cheilostome mass was weighted by 1.26 on the basis of a thin-section determination of the ratio of skeleton to cement plus adherent material in control samples [33 cheilostomes (X̄ = 0.62, SD = 0.147) and 35 cyclostomes (X̄ = 0.51, SD = 0.151) from four representative collections]. Additional "noise" in the data may be due to different taphonomic responses of cyclostome and cheilostome bryozoans in different environments. However, dissolution and abrasion rates of mineralized bryozoans are dependent upon diverse factors that cut across clade assignment [A. M. Smith, C. S. Nelson, P. J. Danaher, Palaeogeogr. Palaeoclimatol. Palaeoecol. 93, 213 (1992); A. M. Smith and C. S. Nelson, in Biology and Palaeobiology of Bryozoans, P. J. Hayward, J. S. Ryland, P. D. Taylor, Eds.

Cyclostomes tend to have thinner walls than do cheilostomes, and raw cheilostome mass was weighted by 1.26 on the basis of a thin-section determination of the ratio of skeleton to cement plus adherent material in control samples [33 cheilostomes (X̄ = 0.62, SD = 0.147) and 35 cyclostomes (X̄ = 0.51, SD = 0.151) from four representative collections]. Additional "noise" in the data may be due to different taphonomic responses of cyclostome and cheilostome bryozoans in different environments. However, dissolution and abrasion rates of mineralized bryozoans are dependent upon diverse factors that cut across clade assignment [A. M. Smith, C. S. Nelson, P. J. Danaher, Palaeogeogr. Palaeoclimatol. Palaeoecol. 93, 213 (1992); A. M. Smith and C. S. Nelson, in Biology and Palaeobiology of Bryozoans, P. J. Hayward, J. S. Ryland, P. D. Taylor, Eds.

All bryozoan fragments retained on 0.5-mm and larger screens were picked from 60 entire disaggregated 0.3-to 3.0-kg samples or, where bryozoans were extraordinarily abundant, from subsamples; fragments were sorted on the basis of clade, and total mass for each clade was determined directly or calculated on the basis of subsamples. Species that produce colony fragments typically smaller than 0.5 mm have not been included in most previous studies of bryozoan species diversity [summarized in (13)]. We have excluded such small size fragments from our calculations of relative skeletal mass as well; these fractions are subject to winnowing in many recent bryozoan habitats and are rarely derived from the ecologically dominant taxa. Nonetheless, small colonies of cyclostomes and cheilostomes may be numerous in some environments (E. Håkansson, personal communication). Our data were supplemented by data in O. Berthelsen, Danmarks Geol. Unders. 83, 1 (1962) and A. H. Cheetham, Smithsonian Contrib. Paleobiol. 6, 1 (1971). Some variation in the data inevitably results from variable amounts of cement or of matrix or shell fragments. Cyclostomes tend to have thinner walls than do cheilostomes, and raw cheilostome mass was weighted by 1.26 on the basis of a thin-section determination of the ratio of skeleton to cement plus adherent material in control samples [33 cheilostomes (X̄ = 0.62, SD = 0.147) and 35 cyclostomes (X̄ = 0.51, SD = 0.151) from four representative collections].
