Osteohistology of Late Triassic prozostrodontian cynodonts from Brazil
The Prozostrodontia includes a group of Late Triassic-Early Cretaceous eucynodonts plus the clade Mammaliaformes, in which Mammalia is nested. Analysing their growth patterns is thus important for understanding the evolution of mammalian life histories.

Extinction and dawn of the modern world in the Carnian (Late Triassic)
The roots of modern-style ecosystems go back to the Carnian (ca. 233 Ma), a time of global climate change and extinction. The Carnian Pluvial Episode (Late Triassic) was a time of global environmental changes and possibly substantial coeval volcanism ...
