The Upper Miocene of the Rostov Dome (Eastern Paratethys): Implication of the chronostratigraphy and bivalvia-based biostratigraphy [PDF]
Geološki Anali Balkanskoga Poluostrva, 2005 The Rostov Dome is located in the south of the Russian Platform. In the Late Miocene this area was embraced by the Eastern Paratethys. The implications of a recently developed Neogene chronostratigraphy to the studied area are discussed.

Rivista Italiana di Paleontologia e Stratigrafia, 2017 In the Upper Burdigalian-Lower Langhian sediments of the Venetian molassic basin two volcaniclastic layers are clearly recognizable, respectively within the Globigerinoides trilobus and Praeorbulina glomerosa zones of Bizon & Bizon (1972). The chemical

Palaeogeography, Palaeoclimatology, Palaeoecology, 2001 Abstract Four sections cropping out in the Hyblean Plateau (SE Sicily) were studied biostratigraphically and palaeoecologically. The investigated succession was referred to the early–late Langhian on the basis of both the planktonic foraminifers (lowermost part of the Praeorbulina glomerosa sicana Subzone–lowermost part of the Orbulina universa ...

Geophysical Monograph Series, Page 1-26., 2021 Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact
An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.

The First Complete Chloroplast Genome of <i>Lycium shawii</i>: Genomic Architecture, Molecular Phylogenetics and Evolutionary Insights. [PDF]
Ecol EvolThe study presents the first complete chloroplast genome of Lycium shawii (PQ824997.1) spanning 155,936 bp and contains 128 genes (84 protein‐coding genes, 36 tRNAs, and eight rRNAs). Nucleotide diversity analysis highlighted atpI, rbcL, and accD as hypervariable loci suitable for DNA barcoding. Molecular dating analysis revealed that L.

Episodes, 2023 The Global Stratotype Section and Point (GSSP) of the base of Langhian Stage (base of the Middle Miocene Subseries) is defined at a level of 17.84 m in the "Lower La Vedova Beach" section in central Italy. This level marks the mid-point of the darker marly interval above "Megabed IV" which has been astronomically calibrated to the most prominent ∼100 ...
