Allaeochelys libyca, a New Carettochelyine Turtle from the Middle Miocene (Langhian) of Libya [PDF]

Bulletin of the Peabody Museum of Natural History, 2014
Abstract Fossil carettochelyine turtles are well known from the Paleogene of Europe (Allaeochelys), North America and Asia (Anosteira); however, the previously known Neogene fossil record is highly fragmentary and was therefore unsuitable for taxonomic analysis.

IL LANGHIANO-SERRAVALLIANO TRA LE VALLI DEL TANARO E DEL BELBO. CONFRONTI CON I DINTORNI DI GAVI E DI FINALE LIGURE

Rivista Italiana di Paleontologia e Stratigrafia, 2018
The Langhian-Serravallian sequences cropping out in the southwestern part of the Tertiary Piedmont Basin (NW Italy) are firstly examined. Secondly, comparisons are stated with coeval sequences cropping out in the Gavi region (easternmost Tertiary Piedmont

LOWER TO MIDDLE MIOCENE MOLLUSC ASSEMBLAGES FROM THE TORINO HILLS (NW ITALY): SYNTHESIS OF NEW DATA AND CHRONOSTRATIGRAPHICAL ARRANGEMENT

Rivista Italiana di Paleontologia e Stratigrafia, 2009
The goal of this study is to correlate in chronostratigraphic order the fossil assemblages of selected, historical Lower and Middle Miocene localities of the Torino Hills. More than 18,000 specimens have been classified and assigned to 798 taxa (cf. Tab.

FIRST RECORD OF DUGONGIDAE (MAMMALIA: SIRENIA) FROM THE FLORESTA CALCARENITES FORMATION (LATE BURDIGALIAN – EARLY LANGHIAN, REGGIO CALABRIA, SOUTHERN ITALY)

Rivista Italiana di Paleontologia e Stratigrafia, 2016
A sirenian rib has been recovered at Motta San Giovanni (Reggio Calabria) in the “Floresta Calcarenites”, a Formation cropping out in Sicily and Calabria and dated late Burdigalian-Langhian.

High-resolution integrated stratigraphy of the upper Burdigalian-lower Langhian in the Mediterranean: the Langhian historical stratotype and new candidate sections for defining its GSSP

Stratigraphy, 2011
Results of high-resolution integrated stratigraphic studies (calcareous plankton and magnetostratigraphy) of three Mediterranean sections (La Vedova in Central Italy, Contrada Pesciarello in Sicily and St. Peter’s Pool in Malta) and one deep-sea core from the mid-latitude North Atlantic (DSDP Hole 608) are here synthesized. They are compared with those

24 million years of pollination interaction between European linden flowers and bumble bees. [PDF]

New Phytol
Summary Pollination is the most common insect–plant mutualism, binding them in a co‐evolutionary framework. Historic evidence of this interaction can be partly inferred from time‐calibrated molecular phylogenies of plant and insect lineages or directly from fossils.

Modavite finds in Middle Miocene (Langhian Stage) deposits of southwestern Poland

Carnets Geol, 2020
Most of the Ries tektites (moldavites) were deposited in sediments clearly postdating the Ries crater formation. This suggests secondary deposition for these ejected glasses. Only a few sedimentary formations known to contain these tektites are of Middle Miocene age and coeval with the Ries event. One is the Poznanska Formation, which is exposed across

Rediscovering Globigerina bollii Cita and Premoli Silva 1960 [PDF]

Journal of Micropalaeontology
Globigerina bollii Cita and Premoli Silva was described from the historical Langhian-type section in Langhe, Piedmont (Italy). Due to its peculiar compact morphology, it was set apart from all the other globigerinids typical of the coeval Mediterranean ...
