A new archosauromorph from South America provides insights on the early diversification of tanystropheids.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2020
After the Permo-Triassic mass extinction, the archosauromorph fossil record is comparatively abundant and ecologically diverse. Among early archosauromorphs, tanystropheids gained considerable attention due to the presence of extreme skeletal adaptations

There was no “Great Bank of Guizhou” in the Early Triassic in Guizhou Province South China

open access: yesJournal of Palaeogeography, 2015
In the 1990s, some geologists named the Early Triassic isolated carbonate platform in the Luodian area of southern Guizhou Province in South China as the “Great Bank of Guizhou”. During the past twenty years, this term “Great Bank of Guizhou” was used in

Coping between crises: Early Triassic–early Jurassic bivalve diversity dynamics

open access: yesPalaeogeography, Palaeoclimatology, Palaeoecology, 2011
Abstract The Triassic is bounded by two of the most severe biotic crises, but nevertheless this time was, for bivalves, both a recovery and a diversification period, and a moment to fully exploit some of their evolutionary novelties. Just how and when this was achieved is analyzed in this paper, which covers Induan to Sinemurian bivalve diversity ...

Gastropod evidence against the Early Triassic Lilliput effect: COMMENT [PDF]

open access: yesGeology, 2011
[Brayard et al. (2010)][1] assert that their study of late Early Triassic gastropods provides evidence against the post-extinction Lilliput effect. Regrettably, their data provide no such evidence.

PERMIAN-TRIASSIC BOUNDARY AND EARLY TRIASSIC CONODONTS FROM THE SOUTHERN ALPS, ITALY

open access: yesRIVISTA ITALIANA DI PALEONTOLOGIA E STRATIGRAFIA, 2020
The Bellerophon (Late Permian) and Werfen (Lower Triassic) Formations were investigated on the basis of conodonts. Fifteen sections were sampled from Carnic Alps and Dolomites area in the Southern Alps. Ten were productive. The Bellerophon Formation yielded a few specimens of Hindeodus typicalis, Ellisonia agordina and Ellisonia sp. In the ...

Biomineralization of primary carbonate cements: a new biosignature in the fossil record from the Anisian of Southern Italy

open access: yesLethaia, EarlyView., 2021
Biomineralization is a generic term used to indicate biological‐mediated mineral formation. In carbonate mineralization, nucleation of crystals can be: (1) controlled directly by the organisms, like in the skeletal formation of most metazoans; (2) induced by microbial communities, by indirect precipitation mediated by their metabolic activities; or (3)

Rapid neck elongation in Sauropterygia (Reptilia: Diapsida) revealed by a new basal pachypleurosaur from the Lower Triassic of China

open access: yesBMC Ecology and Evolution, 2023
Neck elongation has appeared independently in several tetrapod groups, including giraffes and sauropod dinosaurs on land, birds and pterosaurs in the air, and sauropterygians (plesiosaurs and relatives) in the oceans.
