Surface Microtextures of Quartz Grains and Origin of the Paleogene Sands in the Ulyanovsk-Syzran Volga Region

open access: yesУчёные записки Казанского университета: Серия Естественные науки, 2023
Quartz grains were separated by standard sieving of the Paleogene sands from the Sosnovka Formation of the Ulyanovsk-Syzran Volga region, which are a scarce and valuable raw material for glass making and construction.

An early Eocene pan-gekkotan from France could represent an extra squamate group that survived the K/Pg extinction [PDF]

open access: yesActa Palaeontologica Polonica, 2023
In this paper we describe a new lizard from the early Eocene of the Cos locality in the Quercy region (near the Caylus village, Southwest France). The age of the Cos deposit has been proposed as the MP 10–11 interval, close to the transition of the ...

Tracing Ancient Migration Routes: Did <i>Gloydius</i> Pitvipers Disperse Across Paleo-Tibet Through Temperate and Subtropical Corridors? [PDF]

open access: yesEcol Evol
We investigated the evolutionary and biogeographic history of Himalayan and Hindu Kush Gloydius pitvipers by integrating time‐calibrated phylogenetic analyses with paleoclimatic reconstructions and species distribution modeling. Our results suggest an early Miocene origin in East and Southeast Asia, followed by westward dispersal across Paleo‐Tibet via

A new species of Ampulicomorpha Ashmead from Eocene French amber, with a list of fossil and extant Embolemidae (Insecta: Hymenoptera) of the world

open access: yesBSGF - Earth Sciences Bulletin, 2020
Embolemidae is a cosmopolitan but species-poor group of chrysidoid wasps with a scarce fossil record, despite a long evolutionary history since at least the Early Cretaceous. Here, the new species, Ampulicomorpha quesnoyensis sp. nov., is illustrated and
