Communities of Paleozoic shelf invertebrates underwent varied rates of change in faunal composition. Notable changes took place during Late Devonian-Early Mississippian time and were most noticeable in ofishore brachiopod-dominated communities. Near-shore molluscan communities remained relatively stable throughout the Paleozoic.
古生代浅海无脊椎动物群落的动物群组成经历了不同的变化速度。在晚泥盆世至早密西西比世期间发生了显著的变化，在近海以腕足动物为主的群落中最为明显。近岸软体动物群落在整个古生代保持相对稳定。
