A guide for microscopic description of fossil stromatolites [PDF]
Brazilian Journal of Geology, 2023 Stromatolites are laminated biosedimentary structures of great importance for paleobiological, paleoecological, and paleoenvironmental analyses, mainly in Precambrian rocks. Their value is related to the glimpse of past life recorded in their lamination,

Shell variability in the stem turtles Proterochersis spp. [PDF]
PeerJ, 2018 Background Turtle shells tend to exhibit frequent and substantial variability, both in bone and scute layout. Aside from secondary changes, caused by diseases, parasites, and trauma, this variability appears to be inherent and result from stochastic or ...

Photosymbiosis in Late Triassic scleractinian corals from the Italian Dolomites [PDF]
PeerJ, 2021 During the Carnian, oligotrophic shallow-water regions of the western Tethys were occupied by small, coral-rich patch reefs. Scleractinian corals, which already contributed to the formation of the reef structure, owed their position most probably to the ...
