The Brasiliano collage in South America: a review
Analysis of recent geological and geochronological data from the basement of the South American platform indicates that the Brasiliano orogenic collage took place in four distinct pulses: a) Early Cryogenian (ca.

ABSTRACT Rationale This study evaluates the potential of Sr isotopic compositions in apatite grains from magmatic rocks as a proxy for initial 87Sr/86Sr ratios, addressing the need for alternative approaches to conventional whole‐rock analyses in isotopic studies of granitoid systems.

Late Cenozoic Sediment Provenance in the Northern Canterbury Basin, Aotearoa New Zealand
Late Cenozoic strata of the northern Canterbury Basin record uplift and erosion of mountain ranges adjacent to the transition from oblique subduction to strike‐slip on the Australian–Pacific plate boundary. Using the provenance of conglomerate clasts and sandstone samples, we reconstruct sediment transport pathways and, by inference, exhumation and ...

Abstract The Aliança Formation (Jatobá Basin) represents lacustrine deposits formed in oxygenated waters that hosted a diverse fauna, including Hybodontiform sharks. Within this group, the Family Lonchidiidae comprises 11 valid genera, with Parvodus previously reported in Brazilian deposits from the Brejo Santo Formation (Araripe Basin, Late Jurassic ...

Statistically significant cyclicity preserved in Joggins Formation rhythmites is most consistent with tidal modulation. These findings provide new quantitative evidence that tidal energy propagated into the Cumberland Basin, supporting interpretations of marine connectivity during Late Carboniferous deposition.

The Late Neoproterozoic assembly of western Gondwana played an important role in the subduction of oceanic and continental lithospheres. Such event was also a source of arc magmatism, reworking of cratonic margins and development of ultra-high pressure ...

On the Origin of the Tingidae (Insecta, Heteroptera)
ABSTRACT The hypothesis of a Gondwanian origin of the family Tingidae (Insecta, Heteroptera) has been promoted and seems to be generally accepted by specialists. However, the area of emergence and diversification of the clade, South American or Australian, is still debated and cannot be solved without integrating Vianaidinae, a subfamily considered as ...
