| The world's longest graptolite? David. K. Loydell & Robert F. Loveridge Geological Journal (2001) 36, 1, 55-57 |
| ABSTRACT: "An incomplete specimen of Stimulograptus halli 1.45 m long is recorded from the Aberystwyth Grifts Formation north of Clarach, western mid-Wales. This is the longest graptoloid graptolite known. Assuming a growth rate similar to that of modern Rhabdopleura it lived for at least 25 years."
