Island life in the Cretaceous - faunal composition, biogeography, evolution, and extinction of land-living vertebrates on the Late Cretaceous European archipelago

ZooKeys, 2015
The Late Cretaceous was a time of tremendous global change, as the final stages of the Age of Dinosaurs were shaped by climate and sea level fluctuations and witness to marked paleogeographic and faunal changes, before the end-Cretaceous bolide impact ...

Tip dating supports novel resolutions of controversial relationships among early mammals [PDF]

, 2020
The estimation of the timing of major divergences in early mammal evolution is challenging due to conflicting interpretations of key fossil taxa. One contentious group is Haramiyida, the earliest members of which are from the Late Triassic.

Pterosaurs from the Late Cretaceous of Angola

Diversity, 2022
Here, we describe the first pterosaur remains from Angola, an assemblage of fourteen bones from the Lower Maastrichtian marine deposits of Bentiaba, Namibe Province. One new species is introduced, Epapatelo otyikokolo, gen. et sp. nov., which comprises an articulated partial left humerus and ulna as well as an articulated left ulna and radius (from a ...

A Ceratopsian Dinosaur from the Lower Cretaceous of Western North America, and the Biogeography of Neoceratopsia. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2014
The fossil record for neoceratopsian (horned) dinosaurs in the Lower Cretaceous of North America primarily comprises isolated teeth and postcrania of limited taxonomic resolution, hampering previous efforts to reconstruct the early evolution of this ...

The First Fossil Coelacanth from Thailand

Diversity, 2023
Mawsoniidae is a family of coelacanths restricted to the Mesozoic. During the Cretaceous, mawsoniids were mainly represented by the Mawsonia/Axelrodichthy complex, long known to be from western Gondwana only (South America and Africa).

Contrasting characteristics observed between the early and late Cretaceous periods: Evidences from geochemical and isotopic studies of clastic rocks from the Tethys Himalaya, India

Journal of Asian Earth Sciences: X
This study uses a multi-proxy approach on Cretaceous shales (consisting of early Cretaceous Giumal shale and late Cretaceous Chikkim shale of Lagudarsi Group) from the Spiti region of the Indian Tethys Himalaya to assess paleo-weathering, redox ...
