The palaeopsychrosphere in the Devonian [PDF]
Lethaia, 2018 The interpretation of Palaeozoic marine benthonic ostracods of the Thuringian "Ecotype" or "Mega-assemblage" as indicative of a palaeopsychrosphere has been controversial.

UV-B radiation was the Devonian-Carboniferous boundary terrestrial extinction kill mechanism
Science Advances, 2020 A brief UV-B burst, during a climatic warming interval, collapsed the Devonian-Carboniferous boundary terrestrial ecosystem. There is an unexplained terrestrial mass extinction at the Devonian-Carboniferous boundary (359 million years ago). The discovery

Geophysical Monograph Series, Page 1-26., 2021 Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact
An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.

Timing and pacing of the Late Devonian mass extinction event regulated by eccentricity and obliquity
Nature Communications, 2017 The Late Devonian envelops one of Earth’s big five mass extinction events at the Frasnian–Famennian boundary (374 Ma). Environmental change across the extinction severely affected Devonian reef-builders, besides many other forms of marine life.

A new Early Devonian antiarch placoderm from Belarus, and the phylogeny of Asterolepidoidei [PDF]
Acta Palaeontologica Polonica, 2023 A new asterolepidoid antiarch, Sherbonaspis talimaae sp. nov., is described based on the disarticulated skeletal elements from several boreholes in Belarus, from the Lepel Beds of the Vitebsk Formation, which has been assigned to an Early Devonian, late ...
