Devonian geoheritage of Siberia: A case of the northwestern Kemerovo region of Russia [PDF]
Heliyon, 2023 Southern Siberia demonstrates significant richness of the geological environment, but its uniqueness remains known poorly. Four geosites represent sections of Givetian–Famennian (Middle–Late Devonian) deposits formed in the tectonically active zone where

Geophysical Monograph Series, Page 1-26., 2021 Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact
An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.

A high latitude Gondwanan species of the Late Devonian tristichopterid Hyneria (Osteichthyes: Sarcopterygii) [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2023 We describe the largest bony fish in the Late Devonian (late Famennian) fossil assemblage from Waterloo Farm near Makhanda/Grahamstown, South Africa. It is a giant member of the extinct clade Tristichopteridae (Sarcopterygii: Tetrapodomorpha) and most ...

Alpinites and other Posttornoceratidae (Goniatitida, Famennian) [PDF]
Fossil Record, 2002 The rediscovery of the supposedly lost type allows a revision of Alpinites Bogoslovskiy, 1971, the most advanced genus of the Posttornoceratidae. The type-species, Alp. kayseri Schindewolf, 1923, is so far only known from the Carnic Alps. Alp.

A new origin of the ‘modern’ lungfish dentition revealed by taxonomic overlap between Devonian and Carboniferous dipnoans [PDF]
PeerJLungfishes (Dipnoi, Sarcopterygii) initially radiated in the Early Devonian, and reached the apogee of their diversity during this period, especially with regard to their dentitions.

Alasemenia, the earliest ovule with three wings and without cupule [PDF]
eLifeThe ovules or seeds (fertilized ovules) with wings are widespread and especially important for wind dispersal. However, the earliest ovules in the Famennian of the Late Devonian are rarely known about the dispersal syndrome and usually surrounded by a ...

A high latitude Devonian lungfish, from the Famennian of South Africa [PDF]
PeerJ, 2019 New fossil lungfish remains comprising two parasphenoids, tooth plates and scales from the Famennian Witpoort Formation of South Africa are described. From the parasphenoid material, which bears similarity to Oervigia and Sagenodus but is nevertheless ...

Devonian (Emsian-Famennian) Palynomorphs [PDF]
Journal of Micropalaeontology, 1985 Abstract. EMSIANMiospore assemblages which can be positively assigned to the Early Devonian have, to date, only been recorded from core material from Well A1-33. Assemblages of Emsian age were recorded from the interval 8079 to 8091 ft. whilst assemblages from 8055 to 8076 ft.
