Mesozoic-Cenozoic mafic magmatism in Sanandaj-Sirjan Zone, Zagros Orogen (Western Iran): geochemical and isotopic inferences from Middle Jurassic and Late Eocene gabbros [PDF]

, 2017
One of the consequences of Neo-Tethys ocean subduction beneath the Central Iranian Micro-continent (CIMC) is the development of rare gabbroic intrusions in the Malayer-Boroujerd Plutonic Complex (MBPC) located in the Sanandaj-Sirjan Zone (SaSZ) of the ...

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

The 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 ...

Protolith age of the Altar and Carnero complexes and latest Cretaceous–Miocene deformation in the Caborca–Altar region of northwestern Sonora, Mexico

Revista Mexicana de Ciencias Geológicas, 2019
In the Caborca–Altar area of northwest Sonora, variably deformed and metamorphosed sedimentary and volcanic rocks crop out in a northwest-southeast–trending belt (El Batamote belt) at least 70 km long.

A new pliosaurid from the Oxford Clay Formation of Oxfordshire, UK

Acta Palaeontologica Polonica, 2022
We describe the anatomy of a new longirostrine pliosaurid, Eardasaurus powelli gen. et sp. nov., based on a substantially complete skeleton from the Middle Jurassic Oxford Clay Formation of Oxfordshire, UK.

Middle Jurassic sandstone deposition in the Wandel Sea Basin: evidence from cardioceratid and kosmoceratid ammonites in the Mågensfjeld Formation in Kilen, North Greenland

GEUS Bulletin, 2020
Age assessments from both palynostratigraphy and macrofossil biostratigraphy of the sandstone-dominated Mågensfjeld Formation, Wandel Sea Basin, North Greenland were hitherto hampered by post-burial thermal degradation of dinoflagellate cysts and a lack ...

Carbon isotope record (d13Ccarbonate) of the Middle to Late Jurassic (Callovian - Oxfordian) from the Algarve Basin, Portugal [PDF]

, 2014
The Algarve Basin is an important Mesozoic depocentre located in southern Portugal which formed during the succesive phases of the North Atlantic rifting following the break-up of Pangea [1]. Several unconformities related to compressive episodes

Injuries in deep time: interpreting competitive behaviours in extinct reptiles via palaeopathology

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT For over a century, palaeopathology has been used as a tool for understanding evolution, disease in past communities and populations, and to interpret behaviour of extinct taxa. Physical traumas in particular have frequently been the justification for interpretations about aggressive and even competitive behaviours in extinct taxa.

STRATIGRAFIA DEL GIURASSICO DEI DINTORNI DI FOZA (ALTOPIANO DI ASIAGO)

Rivista Italiana di Paleontologia e Stratigrafia, 2023
The Middle and Upper Jurassic sequence near Foza (Asiago plateau; Venetian Alps) is characterized by important hiatuses. The relevant deposits are furthermore often found as sedimentary dikes, filling up fractures in the underlying carbonatic platform ...

New evidence for the age of the Athol Formation (Middle Jurassic : Bajocian) in the Tusk-1 and Tusk-2 wells, offshore Carnarvon Basin, Western Australia [PDF]

, 2010
The co-occurrence of ammonites with palynomorphs in the Athol Formation of the Tusk-1 and Tusk-2 wells drilled in the offshore Carnarvon Basin, Western Australia confirms the Early Bajocian (Middle Jurassic) age of the Dissiliodinium caddaense ...
