An early Miocene extinction in pelagic sharks
Science, 2021Mysterious mass extinction The term “shark” inspires predictable images of stealthy and streamlined marine predators that are key components of modern ecosystems. Studying shark teeth buried in deep sea sediment, Sibert and Rubin reveal that current shark diversity is a small remnant of a much larger array of forms that were decimated by a ...

Late Oligocene–early Miocene birth of the Taklimakan Desert [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2015 Significance The formation of the Taklimakan Desert marked a major geological event in central Asia during the Cenozoic, with far-reaching impacts. Deposition of both eolian sand dunes in the basin center and the genetically equivalent loessite along the basin margins provide evidence for the birth of the Taklimakan Desert. This paper

Thirty-eight silicified eudicot wood samples were collected from a single locality in the early Miocene Gebel El-Khashab Formation exposed along the Cairo- Bahariya Oasis Desert Road of Egypt. This locality is remarkable because it is dominated by trunks of Bombacoxylon, family Malvaceae (32 samples).

An Early Miocene Member of Hominidae
Nature, 1967Hitherto, the earliest fossils recognized as belonging to the Hominidae, from Fort Ternan and the Siwaliks, have been dated to the Mio-Pliocene. Discoveries in early Miocene deposits at Songhor and Rusinga, Kenya, have made it possible to carry the date of the separation of the true Hominidae from the Pongidae back to the Lower—or possibly Early Middle—

A Hominoid Genus from the Early Miocene of Uganda
Science, 1997Fossils from a large-bodied hominoid from early Miocene sediments of Uganda, along with material recovered in the 1960s, show features of the shoulder and vertebral column that are significantly similar to those of living apes and humans. The large-bodied hominoid from Uganda dates to at least 20.6 million years ago and thus represents the oldest known

Reconstruction of a Czech Early Miocene vegetation
Proceedings of the Geologists' Association, 1998Methods used by some archaeological botanists to analyse their data can be successfully applied to certain aspects of geobotany. Presence/absence geobotanical records can be studied by multivariate statistical methods to yield lists of ecologicallyassociated taxa.

The members of the ‘modern’ snake families Colubridae, Viperidae and Elapidae (representatives of the family Colubridae appeared in Europe as the first) might have penetrated into the areas of Central Europe probably across the Mazury -Mazowsze continental bridge.

The environment in the early Miocene
2016The environments associated with early Miocene fossil apes are described here following the methods outlined in Chapter 6. It is important to remember that the operative word here is ‘associated’, for while the geology, plants and animals may all indicate specific habitats, it can not be known for certain that the fossil apes associated with the ...
