UPPER CRETACEOUS AND PALEOCENE IN ZANSKAR RANGE (NW Himalaya)
Rivista Italiana di Paleontologia e Stratigrafia, 2020 A detailed Upper Cretaceous/Paleocene stratigraphic section was measured from the Spanboth Chu Valley, High Himalaya Nappes. Placement Of the Cretaceous—Tertiary boundary was refined, but some uncertitudes still remain because of poor exposure in this ...

NEW ABELISAURID MATERIAL FROM THE UPPER CRETACEOUS (CENOMANIAN) OF MOROCCO
Rivista Italiana di Paleontologia e Stratigrafia, 2011 Fragmentary cranial bones of dinosaur origin have been recently recovered from the Kem Kem beds (Upper Cretaceous, Cenomanian) of Morocco. They include two incompletely preserved maxillary bones evidencing diagnostic features of abelisaurid theropods ...

Revision of the fossil batomorphs from the Cretaceous of Lebanon, and their impact on our understanding of the early step of the evolution of the clade [PDF]
Research & Knowledge, 2017 Lebanon is endowed with its outstanding preservation lagerstätten of fossil fish from the Upper Cretaceous. The batomorphs are represented by 16 species of Rajiformes belonging to 9 genera and 4 families however, their phylogeny remains poorly understood.

Upper Cretaceous planktic foraminiferal biostratigraphy
Studia Universitatis Babes-Bolyai, Geologia, 2017 A high-resolution biostratigraphical zonation based on planktic foraminifera is developed for the Upper Cretaceous. It consists of twenty-five biozones defined with the aid of serial and coiled planktic foraminiferal taxa and presents the highest resolution developed with planktic foraminifera for this Series.

Osteohistology of two phorusrhacids reveals uninterrupted growth strategy
The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract Phorusrhacidae were apex predators that primarily dominated South America ecosystems for at least 40 million years with their imposing size and predatory lifestyle—yet some aspects of their biology remain poorly understood. Osteohistology is a tool for understanding growth dynamics and biomechanical adaptations.

Nasal soft‐tissue anatomy of Triceratops and other horned dinosaurs
The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract Although ceratopsid dinosaurs possess a characteristically hypertrophied narial region, soft‐tissue anatomy associated with such a skeletal structure and their biological significance remain poorly understood. The present study provides the first comprehensive hypothesis on the soft‐tissue anatomy in the ceratopsid rostrum based on the Extant ...

The Late Cretaceous chondrichthyan fauna of the Elbtal Group (Saxony, Germany) [PDF]
Research & Knowledge, 2017 Upper Cretaceous (upper Cenomanian–lower Coniacian) marine strata of Saxony, eastern Germany, are mainly known for their rich invertebrate fauna, but have also yielded various vertebrate remains. The Saxonian Cretaceous marine strata, predominantly sand-

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract The Late Triassic–Early Jurassic fissures of the Bristol Channel area (southwest England and south Wales) are renowned for their diverse vertebrate faunas. These assemblages have yielded an array of predominantly small‐bodied forms that are crucial to our understanding of the early evolution of several major tetrapod clades.
