Late Miocene Hominid from Fort Ternan, Kenya

Nature, 1969
Faunal and temporal relationships of the early hominid sites at Fort Ternan and in North India further support the morphological evidence that “Kenyapithecus” from Fort Ternan ought to continue in the synonymy of Ramapithecus.

The late Miocene Panama isthmian strait

Geology, 1996
Miocene sediments of the Caribbean Gatun and Chagres formations, Panama Canal basin, were deposited within an archipelagic strait that connected Caribbean and Pacific waters. Shallow-water (∼ 25 m) benthic foraminifera of the Gatun Formation have a strong Caribbean affinity, indicating that a significant interoceanic, biogeographic barrier had formed ...

Late Miocene plants from northeastern Nebraska

Journal of Paleontology, 1987
Systematically diverse assemblages of fossil plants have been collected in late Miocene strata at seven sites in northern Antelope County, Nebraska. Fossils were found in several members of the Valentine and Ash Hollow Formations of late Barstovian to medial Clarendonian (13–10 MYBP) age and unnamed members of the Ash Hollow Formation of late ...

Parathethyan ostracod immigrants in Italy durinf Late Miocene

2004
In this paper the ostracod assemblages recovered from several brackish Late Miocene Italian deposits have been analysed from a palaeobiogeographical perspective. During late Tortonian-early Messinian it is possible to recognize in Italy rich ostracod assemblages characterized by a wide contingent of taxa with central European or Mediterranean affinity,

LATE MIOCENE OSTRACODA FROM EASTRN SLOVENIA

2013
Late Miocene sediments of the Pannonian basin are extensive in the eastern and north-eastern parts of Slovenia. In the western part of the Krško basin (the Bizeljsko area) their thickness measures around 950 meters, spamming »Banatica beds«, »Abichi beds« and »Rhomboidea beds«.

Late Miocene hominids from the Middle Awash, Ethiopia

Nature, 2001
Molecular studies suggest that the lineages leading to humans and chimpanzees diverged approximately 6.5-5.5 million years (Myr) ago, in the Late Miocene. Hominid fossils from this interval, however, are fragmentary and of uncertain phylogenetic status, age, or both.

Global Patterns in Opal Deposition from Late Cretaceous Late Miocene

AAPG Bulletin, 1985
Biogenic silica accumulation rates were calculated at Deep Sea Drilling Project (DSDP) sites from Legs 1-44, and were plotted on global reconstructions at seven 10-m.y. intervals. These data were then contoured. Because of the correlation between opaline sediments and upwelling, these maps may be used to trace paleocirculation patterns through time ...

A Lakeland Area in the Late Miocene

2011
Fossil plants recovered from the Late Miocene (Messinian) Hreðavatn-Stafholt Formation grew in a landscape dominated by lakes of different sizes that were connected by small rivers and swampland. Well-drained areas bordering these wetlands were covered by mixed broadleaved deciduous and conifer forests dominated by Pinaceae, Rosaceae, and Acer.
