What Do Lithics Tell Us About Cultural Evolution? Insights From the Central African Record

open access: yesArchaeometry, Volume 68, Issue S3, Page S40-S49, June 2026.
ABSTRACT While Western historical narratives often incorporate a biased vision of human evolution—driven by a progressive view tied to a progressively evolving state of culture—this paper proposes combining archaeological lithic data with epistemological reflections to critique the modern regime of historicity, where progress is assumed as rational ...

Homo luzonensis and the role of homoplasy in the morphology of hominin insular species

open access: yesCladistics, Volume 42, Issue 3, Page 286-316, June 2026.
Abstract Homo luzonensis lived during the upper Pleistocene in the northern Philippines, east of the Wallace line. The few specimens attributed to this species show a mosaic of plesiomorphies for the genus Homo and apomorphies found in upper Pleistocene Homo species.

In Search of the Lost Brown Trout (Salmo trutta Complex) Using DNA of Ancient and Modern Samples From the Southern Italian Peninsula

open access: yesEvolutionary Applications, Volume 19, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The current diversity and distribution of species and populations have been shaped by the major climatic oscillations during the Quaternary. The brown trout (Salmo trutta) is a striking example of the strong effect of past climate changes on the evolutionary history of species, in fact, the alternation of glacial/interglacial cycles has led to

Bio‐mediated cementation of supratidal beach sediments associated with groundwater springs

open access: yesSedimentology, Volume 73, Issue 4, Page 1271-1285, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The formation of beachrock, sensu stricto, via carbonate precipitation in the intertidal zone is widespread throughout the tropics and subtropics. While cementation of supratidal beach sediments has also been noted in several locations, it has received much less attention.

Disentangling palaeoecological and outcrop controls on MISS occurrence in c. 1 Ga fluvio‐lacustrine facies of the Diabaig Formation, Scotland

open access: yesSedimentology, Volume 73, Issue 4, Page 883-913, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The c. 1 Ga Diabaig Formation of north‐west Scotland preserves diverse lacustrine and fluvial facies and abundant microbial and non‐microbial surficial sedimentary features. 172.6 m of section was logged across seven localities to assess the distribution of microbially induced sedimentary structures (MISS) relative to lithofacies, substrate ...
