A new stem sarcopterygian illuminates patterns of character evolution in early bony fishes

open access: yesNature Communications, 2017
Terrestrial vertebrates branched from the lobe-finned fish in the Late Devonian. Here, Lu et al. describe the new lobe-finned fish Ptyctolepis brachynotus dating from the Early Devonian, which preserves a novel combination of cranial characters and ...

Plant diversity in the Early Devonian – stratigraphic and geographic patterns [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The Early Devonian epoch (419.2 ±3.2-393.3 ±1.2 Ma) (Gradstein 2012) marked the commencement of a rapid evolutionary radiation and increase in the diversity and complexity of basal tracheophytes and other groups of land plants.

Orthodentine‐osteodentine and osteocytic‐anosteocytic transition inferred from Silurian stem chondrichthyan dermal jawbones with ever‐white teeth overgrown by brown denticles

open access: yesDevelopmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The dentigerous jawbones of a 423‐million‐year‐old stem chondrichthyan (ischnacanthid acanthodian) carry a characteristic combination of multi‐row non‐shedding white teeth with brownish overgrowing denticles. The color distinction makes it a good model for observing the interaction between two odontode lineages, but the nature of ...

An Early Devonian nonagonal orthoconic cephalopod from Morocco

open access: yes, 2010
A new specimen of a Dalejan (Late Emsian, Early Devonian) orthoconic cephalopod is described from the southwestern Tafi lalt (Anti-Atlas, Morocco). It has a nonagonal cross section (with nine edges) and resembles Kionoceras.

Geochemistry and Geochronology of Magmatic Rocks in Southwestern and Northeastern Cambodia: Implications for the Tectonic Evolution and Metallogenesis of the Loei Fold Belt

open access: yesGeological Journal, EarlyView.
The composition of intrusive rocks suggests that the magma was likely generated in a subduction‐related setting. The arc crustal thickness in the Phnom Sro Ngam and Halo Prospects was probably < 40 km during emplacement. Zircon U–Pb age range indicates a correlation with Loei Fold Belt magmatic activity.
