Late Mesozoic marine Antarctic fishes: future perspectives based on the newly collections recovered in the Ameghino and López de Bertodano Formations [PDF]
Nowadays, notothenioids are the teleostean group that dominates marine Antarctic waters. However, during the Mesozoic a diverse ichthyofauna inhabited the sea that surrounded Antarctic.

The Jurassic of the Netherlands
A recent revision of the lithostratigraphy of the Netherlands has triggered an extensive re-evaluation of existing ideas on the Jurassic structural and depositional history. Significant advances can be attributed to the incorporation of sequence stratigraphic concepts.

Choristers of the Jurassic [PDF]
The production of acoustic signals is among the most important behaviors in animal communication, because sending and receiving messages using sound is essential for the survival and success of almost all kinds of animals. However, the reconstruction of the evolutionary history of acoustic performance is a major challenge.
