New records of theropods from the latest Cretaceous of New Jersey and the Maastrichtian Appalachian fauna [PDF]
Royal Society Open Science, 2019 The faunal changes that occurred in the few million years before the Cretaceous–Palaeogene extinction are of much interest to vertebrate palaeontologists. Western North America preserves arguably the best fossil record from this time, whereas terrestrial

Sea surface temperature contributes to marine crocodylomorph evolution [PDF]
, 2014 During the Mesozoic and Cenozoic, four distinct crocodylomorph lineages colonized the marine environment. They were conspicuously absent from high latitudes, which in the Mesozoic were occupied by warm-blooded ichthyosaurs and plesiosaurs.
