Unexpected pathway for intercontinental movement into the Nearctic revealed by phylogenetic analyses

open access: yesZoologica Scripta, Volume 54, Issue 4, Page 562-574, July 2025.
Abstract Much of North America's freshwater biodiversity is derived from Palearctic lineages. Isopods of the Holarctic family Asellidae are among the most widespread and diverse freshwater crustaceans, but Nearctic species are poorly studied. We examined the evolutionary history of the family, utilizing Sanger sequencing of mitochondrial and nuclear ...

Macroevolutionary patterns in cranial and lower jaw shape of ceratopsian dinosaurs (dinosauria, ornithischia). phylogeny, morphological integration, and evolutionary rates [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Organisms: Ceratopsians were herbivorous, beaked dinosaurs, ranging from 1 m to 9 m in body length, usually four-footed, and with a bony frill that extended backwards from the cranium over the nape of the neck. Known from Asia, Europe, and North America,

Establishing detailed chemofacies of depositional environments in an epeiric seaway using high‐resolution (500 μm) micro X‐ray fluorescence core scanning data

open access: yesSedimentology, Volume 72, Issue 4, Page 1316-1342, June 2025.
ABSTRACT Establishing depositional environments in ancient mudstone successions from epeiric seas is difficult due to the lack of obvious lithological changes, leaving long, largely undifferentiated mudstone intervals that complicate their correlation to near‐shore environments.

Fishes from the Upper Cretaceous Prince Creek Formation, North Slope of Alaska, and their palaeobiogeographical significance

open access: yesPapers in Palaeontology, Volume 11, Issue 3, May/June 2025.
Abstract The Upper Cretaceous Prince Creek Formation (PCF) of northern Alaska offers a unique glimpse into northern high‐latitude, non‐marine vertebrate assemblages, providing critical data on polar ecosystems during the late Campanian (c. 73 Ma).

open access: yes, 2017
Daspletosaurus is a Campanian genus of Tyrannosauridae from North America. This genus occupied the same geographic area of Albertosaurus, but remains of Albertosaurus are more abundant than Daspletosaurus.

A new semi‐fossorial thescelosaurine dinosaur from the Cenomanian‐age Mussentuchit Member of the Cedar Mountain Formation, Utah

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, Volume 307, Issue 12, Page 3717-3781, December 2024.
Abstract Thescelosaurines are a group of early diverging, ornithischian dinosaurs notable for their conservative bauplans and mosaic of primitive features. Although abundant within the latest Cretaceous ecosystems of North America, their record is poor to absent in earlier assemblages, leaving a large gap in our understanding of their evolution ...
