Fault Migration and Basin Evolution During Complex Rifting: Examples From the Western North Gulf of Evia, Greece

Basin Research, Volume 38, Issue 4, July–August 2026.
The Western Basin of the North Gulf of Evia rift is a complex, normal fault‐controlled basin. In this study we develop the first pre‐Holocene syn‐kinematic age model here and apply it to better understand rift evolution, basin control, and timing of fault migration in the active rift.

Palaeoecology of the Late Badenian foraminifera and ostracoda from the SW Central Paratethys (Medvednica Mt., Croatia)

Geologia Croatica, 2008
The quantitative study of microfossil communities from the Late Badenian marls at the Sveta Barbara (eastern Medvednica Mt.) enabled reconstruction of three different palaeoenvironments: middle shelf, outer shelf and upper bathyal.

On the occurrence of Iphiculus eliasi Hyžný & Gross, 2016 (Decapoda, Brachyura, Leucosioidea) from the Miocene of Catalonia (northeastern Iberian Peninsula)

Geologija, 2020
Recovery of two specimens of leucosioid crabs in Langhian (middle Miocene) strata at Vilafranca del Penedès (Alt Penedès, Catalonia) and a re-examination of another leucosioid from the palaeontological collections of the Vinseum (Vilafranca del Penedès,

The latest succession of dinosaur tracksites in Europe: Hadrosaur ichnology, track production and palaeoenvironments. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
A comprehensive review and study of the rich dinosaur track record of the Tremp Formation in the southern Pyrenees of Spain (Southwestern Europe) shows a unique succession of footprint localities prior to the end-Cretaceous mass extinction event.

Mid‐infrared spectroscopy applied to a multi‐level cave system (Montmaurin, SW France): An innovative method for assessing sediment provenance

Sedimentology, Volume 73, Issue 5, Page 1722-1749, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Deciphering sediment provenance is essential to understand depositional patterns and dynamics. This question is particularly important in archaeological contexts to constrain the sedimentological history of unearthed material—an information critically needed, for example, to estimate the age of the deposits—or to apprehend sediment movement ...

A historical vertebrate collection from the Middle Miocene of the Peruvian Amazon

Swiss Journal of Palaeontology, 2021
The Miocene aquatic and terrestrial fossil record from western Amazonia constitute a clear evidence of the palaeoenvironmental diversity that prevailed in the area, prior to the establishment of the Amazon River drainage.

Insights into Red Deer Ecology during the Late Epigravettian: New isotopic evidence from Riparo Tagliente (Italian Prealps)

Journal of Quaternary Science, Volume 41, Issue 5, Page 716-731, July 2026.
ABSTRACT The transition from the Last Glacial Maximum to the Late Glacial marked a shift from the cold conditions of Greenland Stadial‐2 (GS‐2) to the warmer phases of Greenland Interstadial‐1 (GI‐1), enabling the reoccupation of Alpine regions by Late Palaeolithic hunter‐gatherers.

Palaeoenvironments and palaeoceanography changes across the Jurassic/Cretaceous boundary in the Arctic realm: case study of the Nordvik section (north Siberia, Russia) [PDF]

Polar Research, 2014
The Jurassic/Cretaceous transition was accompanied by significant changes in palaeoceanography and palaeoenvironments in the Tethyan Realm, but outside the Tethys such data are very scarce.

Fossil freshwater fishes from the Pliocene of northern Colombia and the palaeogeography of northern South America

Papers in Palaeontology, Volume 12, Issue 4, July/August 2026.
Abstract Freshwater fishes from the northwestern Colombian Andes are reported from the Pliocene Sincelejo and Ware formations. A total of 10 taxa have been identified, involving two orders, five families and nine genera. Characters from dental morphology, fin spines and cranial bones are provided as taxonomic tools for the study of fossil fishes.

Micro‐CT informed cranial anatomy of the early rhynchosaur Howesia browni, with implications for rhynchosaur skull evolution

Papers in Palaeontology, Volume 12, Issue 4, July/August 2026.
Abstract Rhynchosaurs are unusual archosauromorph reptiles that lived between the Induan and early Norian (Early to early Late Triassic). They are characterized by their stocky build and broad skull with a beak‐like premaxilla. This rather charismatic configuration is most clearly expressed in Late Triassic hyperodapedontine rhynchosaurids.
