Proteomic analysis resulting in species‐level identification of recently diverged North American arvicoline rodents

open access: yesJournal of Quaternary Science, Volume 40, Issue 7, Page 1240-1251, October 2025.
ABSTRACT North American arvicoline rodents have long been considered to have high biogeographic, biochronologic, and paleoecological value. They provide relative dating of faunal assemblages when absolute dating is not possible and contribute to paleobiome characterization.

Ten simple rules to follow when cleaning occurrence data in palaeobiology

open access: yesPalaeontology, Volume 68, Issue 5, September/October 2025.
Abstract Large datasets of fossil occurrences, often downloaded from online community‐maintained databases, are a vital resource for understanding broad‐scale evolutionary patterns, such as how biodiversity has changed through time and space. Such datasets, however, are not infallible and must be ‘cleaned’ of inaccurate, incomplete, or duplicate data ...

First clear evidence of Anoplotherium (Mammalia, Artiodactyla) in the Iberian Peninsula: an update on the Iberian anoplotheriines

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, Volume 308, Issue 6, Page 1783-1800, June 2025.
Abstract Anoplotheriines (Mammalia, Artiodactyla) were enigmatic, medium‐ to large‐sized ungulates that lived in Western Europe from the late middle Eocene to the earliest Oligocene. The unusual dental and postcranial specializations of these Paleogene mammals have no equivalent in other Cenozoic or contemporaneous artiodactyls on Holarctic landmasses.

Major Shifts in Equatorial Atlantic and Pacific Calcareous Nannofossil Assemblages Across the Early Eocene Climatic Optimum (EECO; ∼53–49 Ma)

open access: yesPaleoceanography and Paleoclimatology, Volume 40, Issue 6, June 2025.
Abstract The early Eocene Climatic Optimum (EECO; ∼53–49 Ma) was the warmest sustained global warming episode of the Cenozoic, accompanied by major alterations in terrestrial and marine biota. Here we detail changes in low‐latitude calcareous nannofossil assemblages at two tropical sites in the equatorial Atlantic (ODP Site 1258) and Pacific (ODP Site ...

Remarks on the type locality and current status of the foraminiferal species Rzehakina epigona (Rzehak, 1895) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
A likely topotype locality is proposed for Rzehakina epigona. As the type specimen of Silicina epigona Rzehak, 1895 is assumed to be lost, we undertook a search for new material in the type area, Zdounky village in Moravia. A single locality provided a

Restructuring of the "Macaronesia" biogeografic unit: a marine multi-taxon biogeographical approach [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
The Azores, Madeira, Selvagens, Canary Islands and Cabo Verde are commonly united under the term “Macaronesia”. This study investigates the coherency and validity of Macaronesia as a biogeographic unit using six marine groups with very different ...

The Earliest Known Radiation of Pitheciine Primates

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Primatology, Volume 87, Issue 5, May 2025.
Right mandible and dentition of the holotype of Soriacebus ameghinorum (MACN Pv SC2), from the Early Miocene of Patagonia, compared with the living Cacajao calvus (FMNH 88813, cast), both representing extinct and extant morphologies of the Pitheciinae: Procumbent and styliform incisors and projecting canines represent a morphological complex for ...
