Unexpected Early Triassic marine ecosystem and the rise of the Modern evolutionary fauna

open access: yesScience Advances, 2017
A new marine fossil assemblage from the Early Triassic shows unexpected phyletic diversity and functional complexity. In the wake of the end-Permian mass extinction, the Early Triassic (~251.9 to 247 million years ago) is portrayed as an environmentally ...

An overview of the postcranial osteology of caecilians (Gymnophiona, Lissamphibia)

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Caecilians comprise a relatively small (~220 species) group (Gymnophiona) of snake‐like or worm‐like, mostly tropical amphibians. Most adult caecilians are fossorial, although some species may live in aquatic or semi‐aquatic environments, either as larvae or adults.

The Khadzhokh Canyon System—An Important Geosite of the Western Caucasus

open access: yesGeosciences, 2020
True diversity of geological heritage sites (geosites) is yet to be fully understood. New field studies of the Khadzhokh Canyon and its vicinities in the Western Caucasus (Mountainous Adygeya tourist destination, southwestern Russia) have allowed ...

PROVENANCE OF THE PERMIAN-TRIASSIC RED BEDS FROM THE EASTERN PART OF THE MOSCOW BASIN, EAST EUROPEAN PLATFORM: U-Pb LA-ICP-MS AND RAMAN SPECTROSCOPY DETRITAL ZIRCON DATA

open access: yesГеодинамика и тектонофизика, 2023
We present the first systematic results of U-Pb LA-ICP-MS dating of detrital zircons from 12 samples representing different stratigraphic levels of 5 sections of the Permian-Triassic rocks, located within the eastern part of the Moscow basin (syneclise) –

Decoupled taxonomic and ecological recoveries from the Permo-Triassic extinction

open access: yesScience Advances, 2018
After the enormous Permian-Triassic mass extinction, marine animals high in the food chain recovered the most quickly. The Permian-Triassic mass extinction was the worst crisis faced by life; it killed >90% of marine species in less than 0.1 million ...

Inside a duck‐billed dinosaur: Vertebral bone microstructure of Huallasaurus (Hadrosauridae), Upper Cretaceous of Patagonia

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Dinosaurs evolved a unique respiratory system with air sacs that contributed to their evolutionary success. Postcranial skeletal pneumaticity (PSP) has been used to infer the presence of air sac systems in some fossil archosaurs. While unambiguous evidence of PSP is well documented in pterosaurs and post‐Carnian saurischians, it remains absent

The earliest equatorial record of frogs from the Late Triassic of Arizona

open access: yesBiology Letters, 2019
Crown-group frogs (Anura) originated over 200 Ma according to molecular phylogenetic analyses, though only a few fossils from high latitudes chronicle the first approximately 60 Myr of frog evolution and distribution.

Revisiting a long‐overlooked skull: Implications for the distribution of Dinodontosaurus brevirostris (Kannemeyeriiformes) in the Brazilian Triassic

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Dicynodonts (Anomodontia: Dicynodontia) were one of the main groups of terrestrial tetrapods in Permian and Triassic faunas. In Brazil, the genus Dinodontosaurus is one of the most common tetrapod taxon in the Triassic Santa Maria Supersequence. This genus has a complex taxonomic history and is represented in the Triassic of both Argentina and
