Middle Miocene Ostracoda from Northern Iraq

open access: yes, 1988
Four new ostracod species are described and figured from the lower Pars Formation (M. Miocene) of Northern Iraq. These ostracods show strong affinities with those of the adjacent areas.

Rhododendron diversity patterns provide new insights for conserving China's montane flora

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Integrating distribution, phylogenetic, and functional trait data for 603 Rhododendron species in China identified significant conservation hotspots of multidimensional diversity, particularly in the Hengduan Mountains. Climate seasonality and topographic heterogeneity jointly influenced these patterns; however, notable conservation gaps remained ...

P–T Modelling Constrains the Depth of Emplacement of the Porto Azzurro Pluton and Implies Minor Exhumation Caused by the Zuccale Fault (Island of Elba, Italy)

open access: yesJournal of Metamorphic Geology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Understanding the pressure of emplacement of granitic intrusions is crucial to understanding the exhumation history of plutons and constraining the tectonic setting of magma emplacement. However, P–T and geochronological constraints from exhumed plutons are often characterized by large uncertainties, especially in shallow crustal settings with

First occurrences of Trionychidae (Testudines, Cryptodira) from the Miocene of Poland: Detailed cranial anatomy and biogeographic implications

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
Fossil finds from three Middle Miocene sites in Poland reveal the northernmost known presence of trionychid turtles in Europe, tentatively identified as Trionyx cf. vindobonensis, suggesting a warmer climate that supported thermophilic species in Central Europe during this period. Abstract Modern trionychids (Testudines, Cryptodira) have a pan‐tropical

Arc polarity reversal in North Luzon preserved in the Oligocene–Miocene clastic units in southwestern Mountain Province, Philippines: insights from trace element geochemistry, microfossil ages, and zircon U–Pb dating

open access: yesGeoscience Letters
Provenance studies using sedimentary geochemistry, particularly whole-rock, trace element, and rare earth element (REE) analyses, have proven useful in complex terranes such as the Philippines.

Postcranial anatomy of the Miocene hippopotamoids of Toros‐Menalla, Chad

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
We establish a framework for the identification of postcranial remains in hippopotamoids by describing and comparing for the first time two late Miocene hippopotamoids from Toros‐Menalla, Chad (Hexaprotodon garyam, an early hippopotamid, and Libycosaurus bahri, the last African anthracothere) with the common hippopotamus.
