Last occurrence of Abathomphalus mayaroensis (Bolli) foraminiferid index of the Cretaceous–Paleogene boundary: the calcareous nannofossil proof

open access: yesGeologica Carpathica, 2015
In the Gaj section (Polish Carpathians, Skole Nappe, Ropianka Formation), the Late Maastrichtian calcareous nannofossil biostratigraphy is compared with foraminiferal zonation based on the occurrence of the planktonic foraminiferid index species ...

Multi‐Proxy Thermal History of Basin Heating During Cordilleran Orogenesis in the Magallanes‐Austral Retroarc Foreland Basin, Patagonian Andes

open access: yesBasin Research, Volume 38, Issue 3, May–June 2026.
Paleogene unconformity development from ~64 to 22 Ma for the Magallanes‐Austral retroarc foreland basin (MAB). Schematic shows (A) MAB foreland subsidence and basin infilling, (B) onset of cooling and basin inversion as subducting plate shallows, (C) continued foreland uplift, erosion and cooling as the oblique Farallon‐Phoenix ridge subducts beneath ...

From living to fossil: ancestral state reconstruction of leaf architecture in extant Lauraceae and its relevance for the fossil record

open access: yesPalaeontology, Volume 69, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
Abstract Lauraceae are a tropical–subtropical angiosperm family that exhibit significant diversity and a rich fossil record, primarily of leaves found worldwide from the Cretaceous to the present. However, the taxonomic placement of many fossil leaves remains uncertain because of morphological convergence and limited variation in leaf characters among ...

Climate constrains the evolutionary history and biodiversity of crocodylians [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The fossil record of crocodylians and their relatives (pseudosuchians) reveals a rich evolutionary history, prompting questions about causes of long-term decline to their present-day low biodiversity.
