Comparing the Last Interglacial (MIS 5e) with the present interglacial period (MIS 1) using a multidimensional functional diversity analysis: The marine molluscs from Santa Maria Island (Azores Archipelago, central Atlantic) as a case study

Journal of Quaternary Science, Volume 41, Issue 2, Page 333-360, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Marine fossil records hold outstanding importance for ecological, evolutionary and biogeographical studies. Santa Maria Island in the Azores Archipelago (central Atlantic) features a remarkable marine fossil record spanning from the Pliocene to recent times.

Gondwanan Origin of Bark and Ambrosia Beetles and Their Rapid Worldwide Diversification During the Cretaceous

Journal of Biogeography, Volume 53, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim It is not trivial to estimate the relative contributions of dispersal, vicariance, and range contraction in explaining the present‐day distribution of ancient clades. In this study, we aim to infer the historical biogeography of bark and ambrosia beetles using a genus‐level time‐calibrated molecular phylogeny that encompasses 70% of all ...

Environmental and climatic proxies for the Cañadón Asfalto and Neuquén basins (Patagonia, Argentina): review of middle to upper jurassic continental and near coastal sequences [PDF]

, 2015
In this review, we include several proxies (sedimentology, palynology, invertebrates) from the Cañadón Asfalto and Neuquén basins, to infer the environments and regional climatic context during the Middle to Late Jurassic of Patagonia.

Integrating Aegean Last Interglacial faunas into the Mediterranean palaeobiogeographic framework: New evidence from Karpathos (Greece)

Journal of Quaternary Science, Volume 41, Issue 1, Page 80-98, January 2026.
ABSTRACT The Last Interglacial (LIG) or Marine Isotope Stage (MIS) 5e, spanning 129 to 116 kyrs ago, is recognised as one of the warmest periods in the Quaternary, with global sea surface temperatures (SSTs) 1°C–2°C higher than today, sea levels 5–10 m above the current level and biogeographical range expansion of specific tropical species into the ...

The present-day Mediterranean brachiopod fauna: diversity, life habits, biogeography and paleobiogeography

Scientia Marina, 2004
The present-day brachiopods from the Mediterranean Sea were thoroughly described by nineteenth-century workers, to the extent that Logan´s revision in 1979 listed the same 11 species as Davidson, almost 100 years earlier.

Quantitative analysis of palaeoecological features and paleobiogeographic setting of brachiopod fauna in the Julfa Formation (Early Lopingian), northwest Iran [PDF]

Journal of Stratigraphy and Sedimentology Researches, 2018
Introduction Lopingian succession in the vicinity of Julfa (East Azerbaijan Province, NW Iran) have been known for a long time among the most fossiliferous sections in the south of Paleotethys, especially those of the Ali Bashi Mountains (Stepanov et al ...

Freshwater amphibians and squamates from Villeveyrac (lower Campanian; Hérault, France): palaeodiversity, palaeoenvironment and implications for the Late Cretaceous palaeobiogeography of the European herpetofauna

Papers in Palaeontology, Volume 12, Issue 1, January/February 2026.
Abstract The Late Cretaceous witnessed numerous transgression–regression sequences and the onset of a global cooling phase at the start of the Campanian. In the European archipelago, these environmental changes, combined with active plate tectonics, facilitated the formation of ephemeral land bridges that served as dispersal routes for a variety of ...

Late Pliocene calcareous nannofossil paleobiogeography of the Pacific Ocean: evidence for glaciation at 2.75 Ma

Revista Mexicana de Ciencias Geológicas, 2018
Calcareous nannofossil assemblages from land sections of the Japanese Islands and DSDP Holes in the equatorial to high latitude regions of the Pacific Ocean were analyzed in an effort to reconstruct their late Pliocene paleobiogeography.

Assumption 0 analysis: comparative phylogenetic studies in the age of complexity [PDF]

, 2008
Darwin's panoramic view of biology encompassed two metaphors: the phylogenetic tree, pointing to relatively linear (and divergent) complexity, and the tangled bank, pointing to reticulated (and convergent) complexity.
