| A synthesis of the stratigraphy of the Maastrichtian Stage in its extended type area, that is, southern Limburg (the Netherlands), and adjacent Belgian and German territories, is presented with a brief historical overview. Quarrying activities at the large quarry complex of ENCI-HeidelbergCement Group will officially come to an end on July 1, 2018. However, the stratotype section below the Lichtenberg farmstead and directly behind the main office building at the Lage Kanaaldijk (Maastricht), will be preserved, as will various faces within the quarry complex. Strata of Maastrichtian age include the Vijlen, Lixhe 1-3 and Lanaye members of the Gulpen Formation, as well as the Valkenburg, Gronsveld, Schiepersberg, Emael, Nekum and Meerssen members of the... |

| Both faunal endemicity and provincialism in the mid- and Late Cretaceous of the Pacific realm complicate the recognition of stage boundaries in that area. Correlations with other areas (e.g., Europe, United States Western Interior, Pacific coast of North and South America) therefore have to rely solely on event stratigraphy; not only extinctions, but all biotic events must be considered. During the Cretaceous, Pacific faunas were characterised not so much by the presence of typical ‘Boreal’ assemblages, but rather by the absence or extreme paucity of other widely distributed biota. Clearly, faunal similarities depended more on regional facies development than on their spatial distribution. The regional diversity curve reflects all global mass extinctions,... |

| The south-western Indian Ocean islands, excluding the microcontinent of Madagascar, are geologically complex and diverse. They have been subject to drastic sea level changes, volcanic events and anthropogenic changes, all of which have contributed to confuse understanding of their avian biogeography. An array of factors have affected these avifaunas, based on palaeontological, historical and molecular evidence,which together have shown that avian biogeography is not congruent with the relative age and size of the islands. |
