Contribution of the late Miocene mammals from Calabria and Sicily to the palaeogeography of the central Mediterranean

Atti della Accademia Peloritana dei Pericolanti : Classe di Scienze Fisiche, Matematiche e Naturali, 2019
During Miocene, the paleogeography of the central Mediterranean area underwent significant modifications under control of Plate Tectonics. The area here considered occupies a southern position, rougly coincident with the Calabria-Peloritan Arc (CPA ...

Late Miocene Warming in the Tropics Based on Planktonic Foraminiferal Assemblages

Geosciences
The Late Miocene is known as a period of long-term Cenozoic global cooling and decreasing concentrations of atmospheric CO2. The conditions provide the opportunity to assess the Earth’s climate sensitivity in altering internal and external drivers in a ...

Revision of Varanus marathonensis (Squamata, Varanidae) based on historical and new material: morphology, systematics, and paleobiogeography of the European monitor lizards.

PLoS ONE, 2018
Monitor lizards (genus Varanus) inhabited Europe at least from the early Miocene to the Pleistocene. Their fossil record is limited to about 40 localities that have provided mostly isolated vertebrae. Due to the poor diagnostic value of these fossils, it
