Sitona medvedevi sp. n., a new species of the weevil genus Sitona Germar, 1817 (Coleoptera: Curculionidae: Entiminae) from Kopet Dagh and Talysh [PDF]
A new species of the weevil genus Sitona Germar, 1817 is described from Kopet Dagh (Syunt Mountain) and Talysh (Lerik District in Azerbaijan, Transcaucasia). Sitona medvedevi sp. n. is similar to S.

An assemblage of orthoconic cephalopods collected from oolitic ironstones at the base of the Pelmis Formation (New) of the Saluk Mountains of the southern Kopet-Dahg Region of north-eastern Iran indicate that the base of the Pelmis Formation is likely to

Wide‐range geographically discontinuous distributions have long intrigued scientists. We explore the role of ecology, geology, and dispersal in the formation of these large‐scale disjunctions, using the angiosperm tribe Putorieae (Rubiaceae) as a case study. From DNA sequences of nuclear ITS and six plastid markers, we inferred a phylogeny, obtained an

Abstract We provide the first measurement of strike‐slip and shortening rates across the 200‐km‐long right‐lateral strike‐slip Main Köpetdag Fault (MKDF) in Turkmenistan. Strike‐slip and shortening components are accommodated on parallel structures separated by ∼10 km.

Recognition of Oil Traps in the Kopet-Dagh Basin (Northeastern Iran) Using Fusion of Seismic Attributes, Petrophysical Logs and Geological Data [PDF]
Integrated analysis of oil traps, especially those related to facies changes, is far more complicated than reservoirs related to structural traps. The most useful way to identify these complex subsurface structures directly related to facies change is to

A story from the Miocene: Clock‐dated phylogeny of Sisymbrium L. (Sisymbrieae, Brassicaceae)
Morphological variability and imprecise generic boundaries have hindered systematic, taxonomical, and nomenclatural studies of Sisymbrium L. (Brassicaceae, Sisymbrieae DC.). The present study placed the biological history of Sisymbrium L. into time and space and rendered the tribus Sisymbrieae as monotypic.

Paleoecology of the Maastrichtian and Danian sediment at North of Central Alborz, Iran, based on Planktonic foraminifera [PDF]
In order to study the fossil contents of the Ziarat-kola section for biostratigraphical purposes the 212 meters was sampled at Central Alborz. The sequence is mainly made up of monotonous grey- green to light grey marl.

Biostratigraphy of the Tirgan Formation in the Kopet-Dagh basin:Stratigraphic sections of the Tirgan village and Amirabad [PDF]
The Lower Cretaceous successions of the NE Iran in the sedimentary Kopet-Dagh basin are result from transgression of the Berriasian-Barremian marine, which are deposited after first erosional cycle (Late Jurassic-Early Cretaceous).
