Palaeoecology of Middle Devonian epizoans and their Paraspirifer hosts
Palaeontology, Volume 69, Issue 2, 2026.Abstract The Silica Shale brachiopod, Paraspirifer bownockeri, of Ohio and Michigan, USA, preserves a unique window into Middle Devonian communities, as individuals hosted numerous epibionts. Herein, we use qualitative and quantitative methods to test hypotheses regarding the palaeoecology of these brachiopod hosts and their epibionts.

The Anatomical Record, Volume 309, Issue 1, Page 5-32, January 2026.Abstract Hybodontiformes was a diverse, successful, and important group of shark‐like chondrichthyans known from a variety of ecosystems. Some representatives of the order had a wide palaeogeographic distribution, as is the case with Priohybodus arambourgi. With a multicuspidate crown, P. arambourgi was the first hybodontiform to develop fully serrated

Eating lizards: a millenary habit evidenced by Paleoparasitology
BMC Research Notes, 2012 Background Analyses of coprolites have contributed to the knowledge of diet as well as infectious diseases in ancient populations. Results of paleoparasitological studies showed that prehistoric groups were exposed to spurious and zoonotic parasites ...

Geoarchaeological Investigation of Early Neolithic Lagoonal Fringe Landscapes in the Netherlands
Geoarchaeology, Volume 41, Issue 1, January/February 2026.ABSTRACT Coastal wetlands have historically been portrayed as too marginal for early crop cultivation during the Mesolithic–Neolithic transition due to their dynamic hydrology, low elevation, and poor drainage. However, growing evidence suggests that these environments played a crucial role in the spread of agriculture. We examined buried and submerged

Minimally Destructive Radiocarbon Dating of Bone
Rapid Communications in Mass Spectrometry, Volume 40, Issue 9, 15 May 2026.ABSTRACT Rationale Bone is commonly used in radiocarbon dating in archaeology and other disciplines. Despite advances in collagen extraction protocols, the process remains destructive, requiring sawing, drilling or crushing of bone material. While non‐destructive approaches have recently been applied in ancient genomics and palaeoproteomics, no ...
