Paleomagnetic Evidence of Internal Rotation in the Eastern Qiangtang and Its Relation to Distributed Strike‐Slip Faulting in the Southeastern Tibetan Plateau

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 11, 16 June 2026.
Abstract The southeastern Tibetan Plateau has undergone complex deformation due to the India‐Eurasia collision. Although late‐stage internal rotations are documented in the Lanping‐Simao Terrane to the south, it remains unclear whether similar processes have affected the north.

Phylogeny of the Electric Rays of the Family Narcinidae (Gill, 1862): Systematic Review and Evidence of the Dispersal Routes to America

Aquatic Conservation: Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems, Volume 36, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The family Narcinidae has a cosmopolitan distribution; however, its systematic composition and phylogenetic position within Torpediniformes remain poorly understood. This study evaluates the evolutionary and biogeographic history of the family Narcinidae and investigates its distribution patterns using molecular systematics.

Early evolutionary history of the seed

Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 3, Page 1511-1553, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The seed is an essential stage in the life history of gymnospermous and angiospermous plants, facilitating both their survival and dispersal. We reappraise knowledge of the evolutionary history of the gymnospermous seed, from its origin in the late Devonian through to the well‐known end‐Permian extinctions – an interval encompassing the ...

Supercritical‐flow structures in a Cretaceous submarine channel–lobe transition zone, Point Loma Formation, California

The Depositional Record, Volume 12, Issue 3, June 2026.
We document meter‐scale antidune and cyclic‐step deposits in channel–lobe transition zone (CLTZ) deposits of the Upper Cretaceous Point Loma Formation in San Diego, California. These results provide new insights into sediment transport dynamics in CLTZ environments, which are critical for understanding reservoir connectivity and heterogeneity in ...

Quantification of the Eocene–Oligocene transition in the Zagros Foreland Basin: Palaeogeographic control on sequence architecture and tectonic signal preservation

The Depositional Record, Volume 12, Issue 3, June 2026.
New bio‐sequence framework for the Eocene–Oligocene transition in Zagros. Geochemical data validate basin depth control on SB1 vs. SB2 boundaries. SEM‐EDS analyses confirm subaerial exposure versus continuous deposition. Sensitivity analysis quantifies sub‐10% uncertainty in stratigraphic interpretations. Resolves the Pyrenean orogeny's variable impact

Phylogenetic and Environmental Insights Into the Biogeography of the Western Blacknose Dace, Rhinichthys obtusus

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.
Pleistocene glaciations have shaped freshwater fish evolution and distribution patterns across North America. This study investigated the phylogeographical history of the Western Blacknose Dace (Rhinichthys obtusus) using mitochondrial genomic data, revealing three major clades that diverged 2–1.5 million years ago during Pleistocene glaciations when ...

Progressively Fenitised Schist and Carbonatitic Clasts From a Metasomatic Aureole Beneath the Alkalic Dunedin Volcano, Otago, New Zealand

New Zealand Journal of Geology and Geophysics, Volume 69, Issue 2, June 2026.
Clasts of albite‐porphyroblastic quartzofeldspathic schist, derived from the Otago Schist basement, occur within the Port Chalmers Breccia, a diatreme at the centre of the Dunedin stratovolcano, New Zealand. Schists have undergone varying degrees of replacement reactions (at temperatures of 300° to >500°C) producing hornfelses, with Ca‐ and K‐enriched ...

Upper Cretaceous Shoreline in Utah

Geological Society of America Bulletin, 1926
Introduction It is the purpose of this paper to record briefly stratigraphic data collected in 1924 and 1925 along the western margin of the Wasatch Plateau ; to correlate it with data previously recorded for the other regions to the south and north; and to interpret on the basis of the correlation the probable position of the Upper Cretaceous ...

Upper Cretaceous Fossils

Quarterly Journal of the Geological Society of London, 1930
The fossils here described were collected by Mr. Francis Rodd in the South Central Sahara in 1927. They were obtained from ‘a stratum of fossil shells under limestone’ at In Nuguren (19° 5' lat. N., 8° 20' long. E. approximately). The locality is marked on the accompanying map (Pl. XLI).
