A new species of Xyletinus Latreille, 1809 (Coleoptera: Ptinidae: Xyletininae) from Eocene Baltic amber, with a key to known fossil species [PDF]
A new extinct species of the genus Xyletinus Latreille, 1809, namely X. (s. str.) lobanovi sp. n., is described and illustrated from Eocene Baltic amber. This new extinct species resembles X.

Tectonostratigraphic History of Mesopotamian Passive Margin during Mesozoic and Cenozoic, South Iraq. [PDF]
Passive margin of Mesopotamian zone formed by two tectonic phases: opening and closing phases. Opening tectonic phase (Permian-Jurassic) represents the beginning of Wilson cycle. This phase includes three stages: pre-rifting, rifting and post-rifting. In

The Holocene temperature conundrum answered by mollusk records from East Asia
Scientists have been puzzled by the disparity between climate simulations of the past 12,000 years and geological records. Dong et al. reconstructed past annual and seasonal temperatures from land snail records to examine the potential seasonal bias.

Cenozoic plate driving forces [PDF]
Past studies of plate driving forces have concluded that the forces due to subducted slabs in the upper mantle and those due to the thickening of the oceanic lithosphere are the principal driving forces. We reexamine the balance of driving forces for the

A comprehensive model for deep dynamics in Asia has been developed from the data on the evolution of melting anomalies in the context of lithospheric plate motions, interactions, orogeny, and rifting.

Alpine tectonic movements and salt tectonics of Eastern Ukraine
Within Eastern Ukraine, in the course of previous studies, neotectonic movements were established, caused by both salt tectonics and Attic (post-Miocene - pre-Pliocene) thrust dislocations of northeastern vergence.

The Kultuk volcano erupted at the axial South Baikal basin of the Baikal rift zone (BRZ). Now it exhibits facies of subvolcanic bodies, land-lava eruptions and subaqueous pillow lavas and hyaloclastites.
