Coryphoid palms from the K-Pg boundary of central India and their biogeographical implications: Evidence from megafossil remains

Plant Diversity, 2023
Ten palm leaf impressions are documented from the latest Maastrichtian (late Cretaceous) to early Danian (earliest Paleocene) sediments (K-Pg, c. 66–64 Ma) of the Mandla Lobe of the Deccan Inter-trappean Beds, Madhya Pradesh, central India.

Progress in palynology of the Gelasian–Calabrian Stages in Europe: Ten messages [PDF]

, 2007
Europe has at present the most extensive network of palynological sites covering the Late Pliocene and the Early Pleistocene or roughly the Gelasian-Calabrian Stages. This paper covers ten points of recent progress in the palynology of this time period:

Rediscovery of Strobilanthes panichanga and discovery of Strobilanthes parryorum (Acanthaceae): two endangered species from the hills of Dima Hasao, Assam, India

Nordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
We report on two species of Strobilanthes Blume. Strobilanthes panichanga (Nees) T.Anderson has been rediscovered in the Dima Hasao district of Assam, India, after a very long gap of 150 years, and Strobilanthes parryorum C.E.C.Fisch has been discovered for the first time in Assam, India.

Palynology applied to Forensic Sciences: principles and examples [PDF]

, 2008
Forensic Palynology is still often considered a quite new discipline but its first applications go back to the ’50s (Erdtman, 1969). Since then, and particularly in the last years, the study of pollen and spores from crime scenes and in criminalistic ...

A new correlation of Triassic-Jurassic boundary successions in NW Europe, Nevada and Peru, and the Central Atlantic Magmatic Province: A time-line for the end-Triassic mass extinction [PDF]

, 2017
Understanding the end-Triassic mass extinction event (201.36Ma) requires a clear insight into the stratigraphy of boundary sections, which allows for long-distance correlations and correct distinction of the sequence of events.

Chironomid‐based summer temperature reconstruction of the Eemian–Weichselian transition at Lichtenberg, northern Germany

Boreas, EarlyView.
Understanding the temperature variability of past interglacial cycles is essential to predict future climates. We present a new summer temperature reconstruction, based on the subfossil chironomid record from a small palaeolake adjacent to the Middle Palaeolithic site of Lichtenberg, northern Germany. The record spans from the Saalian late glacial over
