Recovery of gastropods in the Early Triassic
Abstract Gastropod rebound from the end-Permian mass extinction event initiated in the Olenekian and diversification continued until the Carnian. The most diverse and abundant Early Triassic gastropod faunas are from the Moenkopi Formation (Utah) and the Upper Werfen Formation (Europe, Alps), which contribute as much as 50% to the reported global ...

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

Evidence for multi-rifting in the Variscan–Alpine cycle transition: insights from the European western Southern Alps [PDF]
We investigate the transition between the Paleozoic Variscan cycle and the Mesozoic–Cenozoic Alpine supercontinent cycle, both of which have played a pivotal role in shaping the central European–Mediterranean plate architecture.
