CYCLIC SEDIMENTATION ACROSS THE PERMIAN – TRIASSIC BOUNDARY (CENTRAL TAURIDES, TURKEY)

open access: yesRivista Italiana di Paleontologia e Stratigrafia, 2003
The best preserved Permian-Triassic boundary beds in Turkey are found in the Hadim region of the central Taurides. The succession is exposed in one of the allochthonous units of the Tauride Belt, the Aladag Unit, whose stratigraphy includes beds ranging ...

A new species of Lonchidiidae (Hybodontiformes) from the Late Jurassic of Brazil (Aliança Formation, Jatobá Basin)

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The Aliança Formation (Jatobá Basin) represents lacustrine deposits formed in oxygenated waters that hosted a diverse fauna, including Hybodontiform sharks. Within this group, the Family Lonchidiidae comprises 11 valid genera, with Parvodus previously reported in Brazilian deposits from the Brejo Santo Formation (Araripe Basin, Late Jurassic ...

The sauropodomorph biostratigraphy of the Elliot Formation of southern Africa: Tracking the evolution of Sauropodomorpha across the Triassic–Jurassic boundary [PDF]

open access: yesActa Palaeontologica Polonica, 2017
The latest Triassic is notable for coinciding with the dramatic decline of many previously dominant groups, followed by the rapid radiation of Dinosauria in the Early Jurassic.

Comparative cranial biomechanics reveal macroevolutionary trends in theropod dinosaurs, with emphasis on Tyrannosauroidea

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Tyrannosaurus is viewed as a model organism in vertebrate paleontology, with numerous studies analyzing its feeding biomechanics. Nonetheless, the evolution of this feeding performance has been under‐addressed in Tyrannosauroidea, especially in basal tyrannosauroids. Here we used muscle‐force reconstruction and finite element analysis (FEA) to

A second species of non‐crocodyliform crocodylomorph from the Late Triassic fissure deposits of southwestern UK: Implications for locomotory ecological diversity in Saltoposuchidae

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The Late Triassic–Early Jurassic fissures of the Bristol Channel area (southwest England and south Wales) are renowned for their diverse vertebrate faunas. These assemblages have yielded an array of predominantly small‐bodied forms that are crucial to our understanding of the early evolution of several major tetrapod clades.

REDESCRIPTION OF ‘PERLEIDUS’ (OSTEICHTHYES, ACTINOPTERYGII) FROM THE EARLY TRIASSIC OF NORTHWESTERN MADAGASCAR

open access: yesRivista Italiana di Paleontologia e Stratigrafia, 2017
The revision of the material from the Lower Triassic fossil-bearing-nodule levels from northwestern Madagascar supports the assumption that the genus Perleidus De Alessandri, 1910 is not present in the Early Triassic.

Redescription of the Triassic cynodont Cistecynodon parvus and reassessment of its phylogeny

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Cynodontia is an important subclade of Therapsida that first occurred in the late Permian. It includes extinct subclades which are the non‐mammaliaform cynodonts and Mammaliaformes, with the latter ultimately giving rise to crown mammals. The systematics of non‐mammaliaform cynodonts has been extensively studied and is relatively well‐resolved,

Indication of natural gas migration and accumulation by three-dimensional fluorescence characteristics of gas-field waters: A case study of the Permian-Triassic in the central-western Sichuan Basin

open access: yesPetroleum Exploration and Development, 2012
Permian-Triassic natural gas migration paths and accumulation patterns in the central-west Sichuan region have been studied by way of examining the three-dimensional shape, light intensity excitation and fingerprint characteristics of aromatic ...

Widespread distribution of large silesaurids evidenced by a new record from the Middle Triassic of southwest Gondwana

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
The largest silesaurid known from South America is described here, demonstrating that silesaurids reached large body sizes in southwestern Gondwana. This discovery further underscores the widespread geographic distribution and temporal persistence of large silesaurids across Pangea, despite faunal turnovers and environmental events such as the Carnian ...

Palynological and Stratigraphical Problems of Middle Triassic Siliciclastics from Croatian Off-shore Well Susak More-1 (Adriatic Sea) and NW Slovenia

open access: yesGeologia Croatica, 2010
The palynological assemblages from Slovenian Middle Triassic sections and Susak More-1 off-shore well always contain Permian, Scythian and Scythian-Lower Anisian palynomorphs.
