Tooth microwear and occlusal modes of euharamiyidans from the Jurassic Yanliao Biota reveal mosaic tooth evolution in Mesozoic allotherian mammals

Palaeontology, 2019
Abstract‘Haramiyidans’ are extinct mammaliaforms often clustered with Multituberculata as Allotheria, and with a fossil record extending from the Upper Triassic to possibly the Upper Cretaceous. For many decades, ‘haramiyidans’ were known only from isolated teeth, and their relationships to other mammaliaforms remain unclear.

Complexities and novelties in the early evolution of avian flight, as seen in the Mesozoic Yanliao and Jehol Biotas of Northeast China

Palaeoworld, 2017
Abstract Recently reported specimens from the Mid-Late Jurassic Yanliao (or Daohugou) Biota and Early Cretaceous Jehol Biota of Northeast China suggest that the early evolution of avian flight involved a surprising amount of homoplasy and evolutionary experimentation.

Stratigraphic and U-Pb zircon age constraints on the timing of the Yanliao Biota in northern China

Geological Society of America Bulletin
Abstract The Yanliao Biota from northern China is one of the most famous Mesozoic terrestrial lagerstätten in the world, with well-preserved fossil records in the Jurassic volcanic-sedimentary Ningcheng and Jianchang basins. However, the temporal evolution of the Yanliao Biota remains controversial, mainly due to the confusing ...

Clam shrimp of the Middle–Late Jurassic Yanliao Biota in China

Geological Society, London, Special Publications, 2022
Abstract Fossil clam shrimp are widely distributed in the Jurassic terrestrial sediments of China. The Yanliao Biota, consisting of abundant and diverse well-preserved fossil vertebrates and invertebrates, is one of the most famous Mesozoic terrestrial biotas from around the world.

A new euharamiyidan, Mirusodens caii (Mammalia: Euharamiyida), from the Jurassic Yanliao Biota and evolution of allotherian mammals

Zoological Journal of the Linnean Society, 2023
Abstract Allotheria are an extinct group of mammaliaforms that originally comprised multituberculates, to which ‘haramiyidans’ and gondwanatherians were later added. Phylogenetic relationships of allotherians have remained controversial since the first reports of the allotherian fossils in the 1800s.

The evolution of the modern avian digestive system: insights from paravian fossils from the Yanliao and Jehol biotas

Palaeontology, 2019
AbstractThe avian digestive system, like other aspects of avian biology, is highly modified relative to other reptiles. Together these modifications have imparted the great success of Neornithes, the most diverse clade of amniotes alive today. It is important to understand when and how aspects of the modern avian digestive system evolved among ...
