Abstract The tectonic evolution of the Eastern Pyrenees from the orogenic mountain building to the post‐orogenic dismantling is still debated. Since the Oligocene, the Gulf of Lion rifting in the Western Mediterranean superimposed crustal extension in this eastern part of the Pyrenean belt, while compressional tectonics persisted in the Central ...

The ancestor of today's pinapinao, Hawaiian Megalagrion damselflies, diverged from Ischnurinae around 51 MA and likely evolved for over 20 MA before colonizing the Northwestern Hawaiian Islands. An ancestor of Megalagrion colonized the Northwestern Hawaiian Islands and diversified into ecological niches with four new breeding habitats and two new gill ...

A new termite bug in Miocene amber from the Dominican Republic (Hemiptera, Termitaphididae)
A new species of the termite bug genus Termitaradus Myers (Aradoidea: Termitaphididae) is described and figured based on a single female preserved in Early Miocene (Burdigalian) amber from the Dominican Republic. Termitaradus mitnicki sp. n. differs from

The Upper Burdigalian scleractinian corals from Bonifacio (South Corsica).
Au Burdigalien supérieur, des récifs coralliens se sont développés dans la Formation de Cala di Labra, aux alentours de Bonifacio (Corse-du-Sud, France). Ils sont organisés en trois épisodes successifs R1, R2 et R3. La faune corallienne comprenant 16 espèces récifales, est décrite pour la première fois.

ABSTRACT Many groups of terrestrial plants and animals display a disjunct distribution pattern in the Paleotropics, being found almost exclusively in tropical Africa and Asia. The origin of such a pattern may be manifold, particularly for older lineages where plate tectonics potentially played an important role.

In this article, we carry out a study of the genus Abax (Carabidae, Pterostichini) based on mitochondrial and nuclear markers to test hypotheses about its evolutionary history in an integrative taxonomical framework. The subgenera Pterostichoabax (four species) and Abacopercus (monotypic) are likely natural taxa supported by all data.
