Biostratigraphic constraints for a Lutetian age of the Harrersdorf Unit (Rhenodanubian Zone): Implication for basement structure of the northern Vienna Basin (Austria)

open access: yesGeologica Carpathica, 2019
The formations underlying the Neogene infill of the Vienna Basin are still poorly documented. Until now correlation of subsurface lithostratigraphic units with those of the Rhenodanubian nappe system and the Magura nappe system, outcropping at the basin ...

New fossil taxa of Monophlebidae (Sternorrhyncha: Coccoidea) from Baltic amber

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Entomology, 2015
The family Monophlebidae is distributed worldwide and is classified as one of the "archaeococcoid" families. After almost 160 years since Germar & Berendt (1856) described the first and so far only fossil monophlebid species, Monophlebus irregularis, two

Hyænodontidæ of the Upper Eocene of California [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1933
Since the announcement(1) of the discovery of upper Eocene mammals in the Sespe deposits north of the Simi Valley, California, excavations have been continued in these beds, particularly at Locality 150 C. I. T. Vert. Pale., by field parties of the California Institute.

Tandem Duplication‐Driven Neofunctionalization of UDP‐Glycosyltransferases Shapes the Diversification of Triterpenoid Saponins in the Cucurbitaceae

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
We present a chromosome‐level genome assembly of Siraitia grosvenorii and, through comparative genomics, uncover a conserved UGT73 tandem array driving triterpenoid saponin diversification in Cucurbitaceae. Crystalized SgUGT73AM30 further reveals the regioselectivity mechanism underlying its catalytic activity.

Phylogenomic insights into the genus Tulipa (Liliaceae): Taxonomy, evolution, and biogeography

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Tulips are one of the best‐known geophytes, but their taxonomy remains convoluted and their evolutionary history poorly understood. Here, we used plastid genomes to identify some issues with current classification, understand the diversification history of the genus, and identify potential species linked to historical cultivation ...

Geometric morphometrics of endophytic oviposition traces of Odonata (Eocene, Argentina) [PDF]

open access: yesRoyal Society Open Science, 2020
The insertion of the Odonata ovipositor in the plant tissue generates a scar that surrounds the eggs (trace). In insects, individual egg traces are known to vary in size, but their variation in individual shape is mostly unknown.

Application of a novel schema for describing fossil fern foliage and investigating taxonomic and morphological change across the Cretaceous–Paleogene boundary in western North America

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise The Chicxulub asteroid impact at the Cretaceous–Paleogene (K–Pg) boundary triggered a mass extinction 66 million years ago. Ferns thrived in the aftermath of the extinction, evidenced by the well‐documented “fern spore spike.” However, fern macrofossil records across the K–Pg boundary are less understood.

Osteohistology of two phorusrhacids reveals uninterrupted growth strategy

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Phorusrhacidae were apex predators that primarily dominated South America ecosystems for at least 40 million years with their imposing size and predatory lifestyle—yet some aspects of their biology remain poorly understood. Osteohistology is a tool for understanding growth dynamics and biomechanical adaptations.
