The Proboscidean Gomphotheres (Mammalia, Gomphotheriidae) from Southernmost South America [PDF]
Quaternary Science Reviews, 2019 The Gomphotheriidae family included a large number of taxa, and a fossil record with extensive geographic and stratigraphic distribution. In South America, the gomphotheres evolved the dibelodont and brevirostrian characteristics, with brachydont, bunodot and subhypsodont molar teeth.

Africa as an evolutionary arena for large fruits
New Phytologist, Volume 240, Issue 4, Page 1574-1586, November 2023., 2023 Summary Strong paleoclimatic change and few Late Quaternary megafauna extinctions make mainland Africa unique among continents. Here, we hypothesize that, compared with elsewhere, these conditions created the ecological opportunity for the macroevolution and geographic distribution of large fruits.

Recommender systems for fossil community distribution modelling
Methods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 13, Issue 8, Page 1690-1706, August 2022., 2022 Abstract We propose to leverage recommender systems from machine learning to build large‐scale community distribution models for the mammalian fossil record. Recommender systems are behind most online life today, from shopping to news personalisation, online dating, or the selection of study programmes or fastest routes.

Could foxes be surrogate seed dispersers of a megafaunal fruit vine in southern South America?
Ecosphere, Volume 13, Issue 7, July 2022., 2022 Abstract Plants that bear oversized fruits, but do not co‐occur with present‐day large‐bodied frugivores to disperse their seeds, are considered to represent seed dispersal anachronisms. It is hypothesized that these plants were originally dispersed by the megafauna that became extinct at the end of the Pleistocene.
