Palynological, tephra, and 14C records from southern Kaitoke, Great Barrier (Aotea) Island, New Zealand, since c. 30,000 cal. yr BP

New Zealand Journal of Botany, Volume 63, Issue 5, Page 1096-1114, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Here we present results of the last remaining three, unreported pollen and stratigraphic profiles from our previous investigations on Great Barrier Island from southern Kaitoke. The 14C and pollen data extend the island's previous maximum pollen‐vegetation date from c. 7000 cal. yr BP to close to the end of MIS 3 c. 30,000 cal. yr BP.

Does size matter? Morphological and content analysis of the coprolites from a Quaternary deposit in the Iberian Peninsula

Quaternary Environments and Humans
Coprolites are very abundant in Quaternary deposits. However, they are often overlooked despite offering insights into both the surrounding environment and the species that produced them, particularly when skeletal remains are absent.

A new ascarid species in cynodont coprolite dated of 240 million years

Anais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências, 2014
Cynodonts represent the transition from reptiles to mammals. They are classified as synapsids, or tetrapod animals with mammalian characteristics. We present here the finding of helminth eggs in a coprolite identified as of cynodont origin dated of ...

A short trackway of tridactyl fossil footprints discovered in the Kaipara region of the North Island of New Zealand

New Zealand Journal of Geology and Geophysics, Volume 68, Issue 4, Page 816-830, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Fossil trackways record snapshots of the lives of ancient animals. A short trackway of unwebbed tridactyl footprints from the Kaipara region of the North Island of New Zealand contributes to the growing record of fossil footprints discovered in Aotearoa.

Synchrotron phase-contrast microtomography of coprolites generates novel palaeobiological data

Scientific Reports, 2017
Coprolites (fossil faeces) reveal clues to ancient trophic relations, and contain inclusions representing organisms that are rarely preserved elsewhere.

From Pigeons to Raptors: Avifauna Across the Early Upper Paleolithic Sequence of Manot Cave, Israel

International Journal of Osteoarchaeology, Volume 35, Issue 6, Page 526-541, November/December 2025.
ABSTRACT Avian exploitation during the Early Upper Paleolithic (EUP) is frequently interpreted as a marker of socioeconomic intensification across Europe and the Levant. However, the specific character of avian exploitation in the Levant has remained unexplored due to the scarcity of detailed zooarchaeological analyses. This study addresses this gap by

An Upper Cretaceous arthropod assemblage from Villaggio del Pescatore (Campanian, Italy) and its implications for peri‐Tethyan palaeobiogeography and palaeoecology

Papers in Palaeontology, Volume 11, Issue 6, November/December 2025.
Abstract The Villaggio del Pescatore (VdP) fossil Lagerstätte represents the most significant Upper Cretaceous (lower–middle Campanian) palaeontological locality in Italy and the Mediterranean region. We present the first systematic revision of the VdP fossil assemblage with a focus on its previously undescribed arthropod fauna, providing new insights ...
