A new Crocodyloidea from the middle Eocene of Zamora (Duero Basin, Spain). [PDF]
Anat Rec (Hoboken)Abstract The eusuchian crocodyliforms recorded in the Eocene levels of the Spanish Duero Basin belong to three lineages: Planocraniidae, with the species Duerosuchus piscator; Alligatoroidea, represented by several specimens of the genus Diplocynodon; and Crocodyloidea, which includes several specimens traditionally attributed to Asiatosuchus.

Postcranial anomalies of Eocene freshwater pleurodiran and cryptodiran turtles from the Spanish Duero Basin. [PDF]
Anat Rec (Hoboken)Abstract Testudines are one of the best‐represented taxonomic groups among the Paleogene taxa of the Duero Basin (Castile and Leon Autonomous Community, central Spain). Among them, Neochelys (Podocnemidide) and Allaeochelys (Carettochelyidae) are most abundant, allowing the population to be assessed for osteological anomalies.

Development of Metagenomic Methods for Health Monitoring of Endangered Species Using Fecal Samples. [PDF]
Evol ApplABSTRACT Metagenomic analysis of fecal samples is emerging as a powerful tool for monitoring endangered species, particularly in assessing the burden of pathogens and parasites that can threaten population viability. However, accurate identification in non‐model species remains challenging due to the frequent absence of host‐specific pathogen reference

Shell characterization of the youngest valid species of the European Eocene genus Neochelys (Pleurodira, Podocnemididae): The Spanish Bartonian Neochelys salmanticensis. [PDF]
Anat Rec (Hoboken)Abstract The freshwater pleurodiran turtle Neochelys is the best‐represented member of Podocnemididae in the European record, being known by eight Eocene species. The youngest of them is the Bartonian (middle Eocene) Neochelys salmanticensis, from the Duero Basin (Salamanca Province, Central Spain).

New data on the mammalian fauna from the late middle Eocene (MP 15-16) of Mazaterón (Soria, Spain): The youngest presence of the genus Prodissopsalis (Hyaenodonta, Hyaenodontidae) in Europe. [PDF]
Anat Rec (Hoboken)Abstract The Hyaenodonta were the most diverse carnivorous mammals in the European Eocene and were classically divided into three subfamilies: Sinopaninae, Arfianinae, and Proviverrinae, with this latter being the most successful of the three, as it exhibited a much larger geographic and temporal range.

First clear evidence of Anoplotherium (Mammalia, Artiodactyla) in the Iberian Peninsula: an update on the Iberian anoplotheriines. [PDF]
Anat Rec (Hoboken)Abstract Anoplotheriines (Mammalia, Artiodactyla) were enigmatic, medium‐ to large‐sized ungulates that lived in Western Europe from the late middle Eocene to the earliest Oligocene. The unusual dental and postcranial specializations of these Paleogene mammals have no equivalent in other Cenozoic or contemporaneous artiodactyls on Holarctic landmasses.

Lizards and amphisbaenians (Reptilia, Squamata) from the middle Eocene of Mazaterón (Soria, Spain). [PDF]
Anat Rec (Hoboken)Abstract The assemblage of lizards and amphisbaenians (Reptilia, Squamata) from the middle Eocene locality of Mazaterón (Spain) is described. Considering the rather limited material available for the study, the assemblage shows a moderate diversity with eight taxa corresponding to five different families.

The Early Paleolithic in the Duero basin: the Ecological Unit of Plateaus
Zephyrus, 2011 The aim of this paper is to summarize or study of the Paleolithic remains retrieved from the Ecological Unit of Plateaus, divided in plateaus and valleys. The lithic remains of both environments have been collected by different survey strategies.
