Morphotectonic study of the Greater Antilles

open access: yesGeotectonics, 2017
The first morphotectonic model of the Greater Antilles is presented. The model is adjusted to the current dynamics between the Caribbean and North American plates. It is mainly elaborated by Rantsman’s methodology. We determined 2 megablocks, 7 macroblocks, 42 mesoblocks, 653 microblocks and 1264 nanoblocks. They constitute a set of active blocks under

Passalidae (Coleoptera: Scarabaeoidea) of the Greater and Lesser Antilles

open access: yesZootaxa, 2015
We present a synthesis of the state of knowledge concerning the species of Passalidae (Coleoptera) of the West Indies and we present a key to the species. The recently described genus Antillanax Boucher renders the subgenus Passalus (Pertinax) Kaup paraphyletic, therefore we place Antillanax in synonymy with Passalus (Pertinax) and we propose a new ...

Historical phytogeography of the Greater Antilles

Brittonia, 2003
An understanding of the phytogeographic history of a region depends upon an adequate fossil record to reveal migrational histories and the timing and directions(s) of introductions and extinctions, and to augment or circumvent undue reliance on molecular clocks.

Quaternary Vertical Movements in the Greater Antilles

Bulletin of the Geological Society of America, 1975
The variable elevation of raised Quaternary marine terraces in the Greater Antilles is interpreted to be due principally to variable tectonic uplift. Such terraces are highest and most numerous in northwestern Haiti and southeastern Cuba. Elsewhere, they tilt noticeably away from this focus and are at lower elevations and less numerous.

Lost islands in the northern Lesser Antilles: possible milestones in the Cenozoic dispersal of terrestrial organisms between South-America and the Greater Antilles [PDF]

open access: yesEarth-Science Reviews, 2021
International audienceOur study aims to reconstruct the palaeogeography of the northern part of the Lesser Antilles in order to analyse whether emerged areas might have existed during the Cenozoic, favouring terrestrial faunal dispersals between South ...

Alboleptonia from the Greater Antilles

Mycologia, 1998
Four new species of Alboleptonia are de- scribed from Puerto Rico and new distribution re- cords for Alboleptonia are noted for Puerto Rico and St. John, U.S. Virgin Islands. Information from ex- amination of the type collections of Alboleptonia ari- poana, A. cyathiformis, and A. hyalodepas is discussed.

Taino and African maternal heritage in the Greater Antilles

Gene, 2017
Notwithstanding the general interest and the geopolitical importance of the island countries in the Greater Antilles, little is known about the specific ancestral Native American and African populations that settled them. In an effort to alleviate this lacuna of information on the genetic constituents of the Greater Antilles, we comprehensively ...
