A probable oligochaete from an Early Triassic Lagerstätte of the southern Cis-Urals and its evolutionary implications [PDF]
Oligochaetes, despite their important role in terrestrial ecosystems and a tremendous biomass, are extremely rare fossils. The palaeontological record of these worms is restricted to some cocoons, presumable trace fossils and a few body fossils the most ...

Toroidal-poloidal partitioning of plate motions since 120 MA [PDF]
Changes in plate motions and plate configurations during the Cenozoic and Mesozoic have been investigated extensively, but most geodynamical models have concentrated on present-day plate motions.

Tectonostratigraphic History of Mesopotamian Passive Margin during Mesozoic and Cenozoic, South Iraq. [PDF]
Passive margin of Mesopotamian zone formed by two tectonic phases: opening and closing phases. Opening tectonic phase (Permian-Jurassic) represents the beginning of Wilson cycle. This phase includes three stages: pre-rifting, rifting and post-rifting. In
