Systematic Interpretation Of Silicified Specimens of Upper Cretaceous Echinocorys ex. gr. scutata (Leske, 1778), Farokhi Formation, Central Iran [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Sciences, Islamic Republic of Iran, 2014
Echinocorys ex. gr. scutata is one of the most important echinids in the Upper Cretaceous deposits. In this regard, a stratigraphic section of the Farokhi Formation in the Central Iran is sampled. This formation is less known and described in the geology

A detailed redescription of a skeletally immature ‘Redondasaurus’ suggests ontogenetic transformations in the taxon mirror phytosaurian morphological evolution

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The study of morphological evolution is fundamentally tied to ontogeny, yet studies of these heterochronic processes in the fossil record are rare. Fossils belonging to an ontogenetic series are difficult to assign to an ontogenetic stage due to inconsistent proxies for skeletal ages, challenging to taxonomically assign due to morphological ...

Lithostratigraphy and depositional episodes of the Oligocene carbonate-rich Tikorangi Formation, Taranaki Basin, New Zealand [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
The subsurface Oligocene Tikorangi Formation is a unique and important oil producer in the onshore Waihapa-Ngaere Field, Taranaki Basin, being the only carbonate and fracture-producing reservoir within the basin. Core sample data from seven onshore wells

An ontological morphological phylogenetic framework for living and extinct ray‐finned fishes (Actinopterygii)

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The ray‐finned fishes include one out of every two species of living vertebrates on Earth and have an abundant fossil record stretching 380 million years into the past. The division of systematic knowledge of ray‐finned fishes between paleontologists working on extinct animals and neontologists studying extant species has obscured the ...

An unusual titanosaur axis from the Upper Cretaceous of Brazil and its significance for sauropod anatomy and systematics

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The Upper Cretaceous São José do Rio Preto Formation (Bauru Group, southeastern Brazil) has yielded a fragmentary but taxonomically diverse record of titanosaur sauropods, although elements from cervical series remain scarce. Here, we describe a nearly complete sauropod axis from the Vila Ventura Paleontological Area, representing an uncommon ...

The stratigraphic setting of continental shelves of southern Italy investigated through seismic stratigraphy: techniques, methodologies and case studies from Campania and Basilicata offshore (southern Tyrrhenian sea) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The stratigraphic setting of continental shelves of Southern Italy is here studied and discussed through seismo-stratigraphic techniques and methodologies, focussing on case histories located in Campania and Basilicata offshore (Southern Tyrrhenian sea ...

Identifying and Interpreting Stratification in Sedimentary Rocks on Mars: Insight from Rover and Orbital Observations and Terrestrial Field Analogs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Sedimentary rocks on Mars provide insight into past aqueous and atmospheric processes, climate regimes, and potential habitability. The stratigraphic architecture of sedimentary rocks on Mars is similar to that of Earth, indicating that the processes ...

Geology of the Pleistocene volcano of Monte Amiata (Southern Tuscany, Italy)

open access: yesJournal of Maps
Monte Amiata (305–231 ka; Italy) is an uncommon example of an entirely effusive silicic (mainly trachytic) composite volcano. A detailed geological map (1:25,000 scale) based on Unconformity Bounded Stratigraphic Unit criteria is presented accompanied by
