STUDIES ON PYCNODONT FISHES (II): REVISION OF THE SUBFAMILY PYCNODONTINAE, WITH SPECIAL REFERENCE TO ITALIAN FORMS [PDF]
The diagnosis, composition, and phylogenetic relationships of the European subfamily Pycnodontinae are revised; its record is pushed back from the Cenozoic into the Mesozoic. The Pycnodontinae is confirmed as a monophyletic group.

Pycnodont fishes (Actinopterygii, Pycnodontiformes) from the Upper Cretaceous (lower Turonian) Akrabou Formation of Asfla, Morocco. [PDF]
The Upper Cretaceous (upper Cenomanian-middle Turonian) Akrabou Formation of Asfla, southeast Morocco is renowned for exceptionally preserved, often three-dimensional bony and cartilaginous fish fossils. Teleosts, rare holosteans and chondrichthyans are well known from the so-called 'Goulmima ichthyological assemblage', however pycnodonts ...

Gladiopycnodontidae, a new family of pycnodontiform fishes from the Late Cretaceous of Lebanon, with the description of three genera [PDF]
The osteology of Gladiopycnodus karami gen. et sp. nov., of Monocerichthys scheuchzeri gen. et sp. nov. and of Rostropycnodus gayeti gen. et sp. nov., three new fossil fishes from the marine Cenomanian (Late Cretaceous) of Lebanon, is studied in detail ...

The dentition of the enigmatic pycnodont fish, Athrodon wittei (Fricke, 1876) (Neopterygii, Pycnodontiformes; Late Jurassic; NW Germany) [PDF]
Most pycnodontiform fishes are represented by their distinctive dentition alone, whereas articulated skeletons are very rare and the systematic position of most taxa based upon isolated teeth and the association of upper and lower dentitions to a ...

History of two lineages: Comparative analysis of the fossil record in Amiiformes and Pycnodontiformes (Osteischtyes, Actinopterygii) [PDF]
Amiiformes and pycnodontiformes are two orders of neopterygian fishes that were broadly distributed, and frequently appeared together, during the Mesozoic. Comparison of their fossil record reveals both common traits and significant differences.

<i>Njoerdichthys dyckerhoffi</i> gen. et sp. nov. (Pycnodontiformes, lower Turonian) northward migration caused by the Cretaceous Thermal Maximum. [PDF]
A new pycnodont taxon, Njoerdichthys dyckerhoffi gen. et sp. nov., from the Turonian of the Lower Saxony Basin of Germany is described and its systematic positions is established based on phylogenetic analyses of three specimens using slightly altered data matrices.
