A MONOTYPIC STAND OF NEOCALAMITES IRANENSIS N. SP. FROM THE CARNIAN PLUVIAL EPISODE (LATE TRIASSIC) OF THE AGHDARBAND AREA, NE IRAN (TURAN PLATE) [PDF]
The Aghdarband Basin in the Kopeh-Dagh Range (NE Iran) is one of the most important areas for unraveling the evolution of the Turan plate (southern margin of Eurasia) during the last phase of the closure of the Paleotethys and to reconstruct the history ...

Biogeographic Patterns of Iranian Lepidoptera: A Framework for Conservation
ABSTRACT Aim The contact zone of three zoogeographic realms, the Palearctic, Saharo‐Arabian and Oriental, is an evolutionary cradle of high species richness and endemism in Iran. In this study, we investigate statistically inferred bioregions of Lepidoptera in this region.

An InSAR‐GNSS Velocity Field for Iran
Abstract We present average ground‐surface velocities and strain rates for the 1.7 million km2 area of Iran, from the joint inversion of InSAR‐derived displacements and GNSS data. We generate interferograms from 7 years of Sentinel‐1 radar acquisitions, correct for tropospheric noise using the GACOS system, estimate average velocities using LiCSBAS ...

Iran's freshwater ecosystems are home to 85 endemic fish species. By analyzing distribution records and using a generalized linear model, the researchers identified the Zagros Mountains as having the highest endemic fish richness, followed by a moderate level between the Zagros and Alborz Mountains.
