Elongated theropod tracks from the Cretaceous Apenninic Carbonate Platform of southern Latium (central Italy) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
New dinosaur footprints were recently discovered in southern Latium (Italy). The tracks all appear slightly differently preserved and are characterized by elongated metatarsal impressions, recording the complex locomotor behaviour of a medium-sized ...

Genomic Evolution and Patterns of Horizontal Gene Transfer in Coccomorpha Species

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 10, October 2025.
This study reveals the genomic adaptations of Coccoidea pests through comparative analysis of five chromosome‐level genomes. Key findings include whole‐genome duplication events, expansion of antioxidant‐related gene families, horizontal gene transfer for nutrient metabolism, and species‐specific detoxification mechanisms linked to pesticide resistance.

First pterosaur remains from the Cretaceous of Poland [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The first records of pterosaurs from the Cretaceous of Poland are reported, on the basis of fragmentary remains from the marine Upper Albian (Lower Cretaceous) of the Annopol Anticline, central Poland.

Soft-Shelled Turtles (Trionychidae) from the Cenomanian of Uzbekistan [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Localities from the Cenomanian of Uzbekistan are the oldest in Middle Asia and Kazakhstan to preserve two broadly sympatric species of trionychid turtle. Material described here comes from multiple Cenomanian formations from the Itemir locality, and from

Probing Pedogenetic Imprints and Functional Properties of Moroccan Clayey Materials Through FFC NMR Relaxometry

open access: yesMagnetic Resonance in Chemistry, Volume 63, Issue 10, Page 796-809, October 2025.
Fast Field Cycling NMR relaxometry reveals how pedogenetic pathways imprint distinct dynamic signatures in Moroccan clays, shaping their microstructural heterogeneity and technological properties. ABSTRACT Understanding how soil formation processes influence the microstructure and the dynamic behavior of clay‐rich materials is essential for both ...

Isolated pliosaurid teeth from the Albian-Cenomanian (Cretaceous) of Annopol, Poland

open access: yes, 2017
Brachauchenine pliosaurids were a cosmopolitan clade of macropredatory plesiosaurs that are considered to represent the only pliosaurid lineage that survived the faunal turnover of marine amniotes during the Jurassic–Cretaceous transition.

Mode of Continental Thinning and Breakup Along the North Iberian‐Armorican Conjugate Margins in the Bay of Biscay

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 130, Issue 10, October 2025.
Abstract Continental breakup involves multiple extension styles; each linked to unique structural and sedimentary processes. High‐angle, low‐angle, listric and antilistric normal faults develop at different stages and positions during rifting. The Bay of Biscay and its margins, a prototypical example of magma‐poor rifted margins during Jurassic ...

Flexural Development in the Foreland Basin Adjacent to Northern Oman‐UAE Mountain Belt: Effect of Lithospheric Weakening

open access: yesTectonics, Volume 44, Issue 10, October 2025.
Abstract Inception of obduction is a rare phenomenon in the Wilson cycle and requires specific prerequisites to transfer relatively high‐density oceanic lithosphere over the less‐dense continental lithosphere. The world's famous Semail ophiolite belt developed during the Late Cretaceous, when Neo‐Tethyan oceanic lithosphere obducted onto the rifted ...

Large Benthic Foraminifera Biozonation of Mauddud Formation in Selected Section from Balad Oil Field, Central Iraq

open access: yesIraqi Geological Journal
Three subsurface sections Ba-1, Ba-4, and Ba-8, and sixty-five thin sections were examined to investigate the biostratigraphy of the Mauddud Formation (age Early Albian - Late Cenomanian) within the Balad Oil Field located in central Iraq.

The biostratigraphy of the Albian and Cenomanian succession in the Ventnor No. 2 borehole, Isle of Wight [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
This report describes the foraminifera found in the uppermost part of the Gault, Upper Greensand, Glauconitic Marl and West Melbury Marly Chalk of Ventnor No.2 Borehole (the "Carstone of the Isle of Wight" was barren of calcareous microfaunas).
