Disjoint geographical distribution of intertidal and nearshore benthic invertebrates in the Southern Hemisphere Distribuciones geográficas disyuntas de invertebrados bentónicos intermareales y del submareal somero en el Hemisferio Sur

Revista Chilena de Historia Natural, 2000
Biogeographical explanations for the extant and paleo disjoint geographical distribution in the southern hemisphere of five species of nearshore marine benthic invertebrates: Gaimardia trapesina, Ostrea chilensis, Pyura stolonifera taxonomic complex ...

Caenogastropods and heterobranch gastropods from the Hettangian deposits of Luxembourg: palaeobiogeography and Early Jurassic faunal recovery in the western Tethys

Papers in Palaeontology, Volume 12, Issue 1, January/February 2026.
Abstract We describe the Hettangian Caenogastropoda and Heterobranchia of the Luxembourg Sandstone Formation, a wedge of clastic sediments deposited along the eastern margin of Paris Basin during the Early Jurassic. Five new genera and 11 new species are erected: Bourguetia bipartita sp. nov., Globularia delsatei sp. nov., Oonia feidtorum sp.

Paleobiogeography of Devonian vertebrates [PDF]

The Paleontological Society Special Publications, 1992
Five distinctive vertebrate faunas characterised by endemic taxa can be recognised for the Early Devonian (Euramerica, Siberia, Tuva, China, and East Gondwana). By Late Devonian time these faunal provinces are obscured by widespread taxa which also inhabited nonmarine aquatic environments, but indicate faunal communication between Gondwana, Euramerica ...

Paleoecology and Paleobiogeography of the Baynunah Fauna

, 2021
The Baynunah Formation has produced a diverse assemblage of plant, invertebrate, and vertebrate fossils that provides the only window onto the terrestrial late Miocene record of the Arabian Peninsula. This chapter reviews and revises the age, biogeography, environments, and ecology of the Baynunah fauna.

Rhinocerotidae from the Upper Miocene deposits of the Western Pannonian Basin (Hungary): implications for migration routes and biogeography

Geologica Carpathica, 2016
Although the rhinoceros remains have high biochronological significance, they are poorly known or scarcely documented in the uppermost Miocene deposits of Europe.

An Upper Cretaceous arthropod assemblage from Villaggio del Pescatore (Campanian, Italy) and its implications for peri‐Tethyan palaeobiogeography and palaeoecology

Papers in Palaeontology, Volume 11, Issue 6, November/December 2025.
Abstract The Villaggio del Pescatore (VdP) fossil Lagerstätte represents the most significant Upper Cretaceous (lower–middle Campanian) palaeontological locality in Italy and the Mediterranean region. We present the first systematic revision of the VdP fossil assemblage with a focus on its previously undescribed arthropod fauna, providing new insights ...

Paleobiogeography: The Relevance of Fossils to Biogeography [PDF]

Annual Review of Ecology, Evolution, and Systematics, 2003
▪ Abstract  Paleobiogeography has advanced as a discipline owing to the increasing utilization of a phylogenetic approach to the study of biogeographic patterns. Coupled with this, there has been an increasing interdigitation of paleontology with molecular systematics because of the development of techniques to analyze ancient DNA and because of the ...

ppgm: an R package for integrating neontological, palaeontological, and climate data in a phylogenetic comparative framework

Palaeontology, Volume 68, Issue 6, November/December 2025.
Abstract Understanding how changes in climate affect habitat availability for species through time is critical for macroevolutionary, ecological, and conservation research. When combined with palaeoclimate reconstructions, the fossil record provides insights into how species' geographic distributions have responded to past climate shifts, including ...

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

Journal 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.

The evolution of reproduction in Ediacaran–Cambrian metazoans

Biological Reviews, Volume 100, Issue 5, Page 2084-2098, October 2025.
ABSTRACT The evolution of reproductive style is a fundamental aspect of metazoan life history but has not been explored holistically through the Ediacaran–Cambrian rise of metazoans. Recent molecular clock analyses based on only unequivocal metazoan fossil calibrations suggest that Porifera were present by at least 590 million years ago (Ma), all major
