New fossil woods from the Mesozoic Khorat Group of Thailand and their palaeoecological implications [PDF]

open access: yesResearch & Knowledge, 2015
Despite its limited stratigraphical value, fossil wood has been revealed to be of interest to characterize the palaeoenvironment evolution during the sedimentation of the Khorat Group.

Preservation and palaeobiogeography of dinosaur eggs from the Dadaepo Formation (Upper Cretaceous: Cenomanian), Korea

open access: yesPapers in Palaeontology, Volume 12, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
Abstract Dinosaur eggs were recovered from the Dadaepo Basin in Busan (south‐east Korea), which is early Late Cretaceous in age and is close to Japan, but the eggs have not been studied. Among East Asian egg‐bearing basins, the Dadaepo Basin is characterized by exceptionally high thermal maturity (c.

A NEW RECORD OF MESSAPICETUS FROM THE PIETRA LECCESE (LATE MIOCENE, SOUTHERN ITALY): ANTITROPICAL DISTRIBUTION IN A FOSSIL BEAKED WHALE (CETACEA, ZIPHIIDAE)

open access: yesRivista Italiana di Paleontologia e Stratigrafia, 2016
A new partial fossil skeleton of Messapicetus longirostris (Cetacea: Odontoceti: Ziphiidae) collected in Cisterna quarry (Lecce) from Tortonian (upper Miocene) sediments of the "Pietra leccese" is described.

Mind the uncertainty: Global plate model choice impacts deep‐time palaeobiological studies

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, 2023
Global plate models (GPMs) aim to reconstruct the tectonic evolution of the Earth by modelling the motion of the plates and continents through time. These models enable palaeobiologists to study the past distribution of extinct organisms.

Palaeobiogeography of early planktonic foraminifera

open access: yesBulletin de la Société Géologique de France, 2009
AbstractOver the last 50 years, our knowledge of early planktonic foraminifera has changed markedly. In 1958 Grigelis described “Globigerina oxfordiana” from the Upper Jurassic of Lithuania and this has, subsequently, become identified as one of the most geographically widespread of Jurassic planktonic taxa.

Affinity in Concentric Circles (ACC): A Geometric Representation of Dendrogram and Interpretation

open access: yesJournal of Biogeography, Volume 53, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim We introduce “Affinity in Concentric Circles” (ACC), a method that converts dendrograms to a geometric form using similarity scores to compare dendrograms and identify affinity change patterns. Location China for trilobites and global for nisusiid brachiopods.

Diversity and distribution patterns of the Oligocene and Miocene decapod crustaceans (Crustacea: Malacostraca) of the Western and Central Paratethys

open access: yesGeologica Carpathica, 2016
Decapod associations have been significant components of marine habitats throughout the Cenozoic when the major diversification of the group occurred.

Les ostracodes de l'Albien-Turonien moyen de la région d'Antsiranana (Nord Madagascar) : systématique, paléoécologie et paléobiogéographie [Albian-Middle Turonian ostracodes from the Antsiranana region (northern Madagascar): systematics, palaeoecology and palaeobiogeography]

open access: yesCarnets de Géologie, 2009
Ostracode associations from the Antsiranana region, formerly Diego-Suarez, in northern Madagascar have been studied at a taxonomic level. In the Albian-middle Turonian interval, 29 species belonging to 21 genera have been recognized, 10 new species, one ...

And then there were none: decrease of origination and the decline of Conulariida

open access: yesPapers in Palaeontology, Volume 12, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
Abstract Although the evolutionary history of conulariids has been widely studied, previous works have focused mostly on limited time intervals. In this paper, we examine the diversity dynamics of the group throughout its entire history, using various mathematical approaches.
