Krobicki &amp; B.W.M. van Bakel (eds.)]: Pristinaspinidae, a new family of Cretaceous kiwaiform stem-lineage squat lobster (Anomura, Chirostyloidea)
Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Ahyong, S.T.; Roterman, C.N.
The chirostyloid squat lobster Pristinaspina gelasina from the Upper Cretaceous of Alaska is most closely related to members of the genus Kiwa (Kiwaidae) as indicated by the presence of supraocular spines, a medially carinate rostrum and similar carapace groove patterns. Evidence from morphology, stratigraphic position and molecular divergence estimates of extant chirostyloids supports its position in the stem of Kiwaidae. Pristinaspina, however, also differs significantly from kiwaids and is here assigned to a new family, Pristinaspinidae. The chief distinction between the free-living pristinaspinids and vent- or seep-associated kiwaids (and an important synapomorphy of the latter) is the enlargement of the metabranchial regions in kiwaids, which meet in...

The stratigraphy and regional structure of Miocene deposits in western Amazonia (Peru, Colombia and Brazil), with implications for late Neogene landscape evolution
Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Wesselingh, F.P.; Hoorn, M.C.; Guerrero, J.; Räsänen, M.E.; Romero Pittmann, L.; Salo, J.A.
A biozonation based on molluscs is proposed for Miocene deposits of western Amazonia (Peru, Colombia and Brazil), commonly referred to as the Pebas Formation. The new zonation refines existing pollen zonations and provides a key for the quick assessment of the stratigraphic position of Neogene deposits in the field. The regional distribution of twelve mollusc zones reveals a structuring of geological units around the broad Iquitos-Araracuara anteclise. The structure of the subsurface appears to have been a major factor in the determination of present-day second and lower order river courses in the study area. Based on this work a biostratigraphic framework for Miocene deposits of western Amazonia, including fossiliferous deposits from adjacent basins...

Brachiopods from the Valdeteja Formation (Pennsylvanian; Cantabrian Mountains, NW Spain)
Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Martínez Chacón, M.L.; Winkler Prins, C.P.
After a short introduction on the lower Pennsylvanian (Bashkirian to lowermost Moscovian)Valdeteja Formation in its stratigraphical context, an overview of its brachiopod faunas is presented and their palaeoecological and palaeogeographic importance discussed. Two new genera of the Strophalosiidina, showing adaptations to a reef environment, are described. The genus Ovetina (type species O. truyolsi gen. et sp. nov.) is an aulostegid with a well developed ventral flange. Miroproductus (type species M. posadai gen. et sp. nov.) is an early richthofenioid, probably derived from an aulostegid such as Institina MUIR-WOOD &amp; COOPER, 1960.

First fossil insectivores from Flores
Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Hoek Ostende, L.W. van den; Berch, G. van der; Awe Due, R.
The hominid bearing strata from the Liang Bua cave on Flores have yielded a large amount of microvertebrate remains. Among these are three mandibles of shrews, the first record of fossil insectivores from the island. The fossils, representing two different species, are not referable to any of the known Recent shrews from Flores, and are probably part of the extinct insular fauna. Since mandibles alone do not offer sufficient characters to allow even a generic classification, they are published in open nomenclature as Crocidura or Suncus sp. A, and sp. B.    Από τα στρώματα με Hominidae από το σπήλαιο Liang Bua της νήσου Φλόρες έχει ανασκαφτεί ένας σημαντικός αριθμός ευρημάτων μικροθηλαστικών.

Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Weers, D.J. van.
Fossil Hystrix material from a large number of localities is biometrically analysed and compared with the extant species. H. major, H. etrusca, H. makapensis, and H. angressi are shown to be junior synonyms of H. refossa. H. bessarabica and H. trofimovi are shown to be junior synonyms of H. primigenia, and H. schaubi and H. cristata minor of H. vinogradovi. The dental characteristics of H. refossa, H. primigenia and H. vinogradovi are discussed.

On two new species of Holectypus Desor from the Senonian of South-Limburg near Maastricht, Netherlands
Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Engel, H.
Up to now the genus Holectypus Desor (1842, p. 52) 1847, (cf. Mortensen, 1948, Monogr. IV 1, p. 26) in its restricted sense (with 4 genital pores) has not been recorded from the Senonian. So the two specimens described below as H. boschmai nov. spec. may have been remaniated and finally deposited in the Senonian of South-Limburg. They then may belong to the Jurassic species H. corallinus d'Orbigny, 1850. Though the preservation of two other specimens of Holectypus from the Limburg Senonian does not permit to decide whether a fifth genital pore is present, it is presumed there was. These two specimens are described as H. macrostomus nov. spec. As said, up to now no Senonian Holectypus is known with 4 genital pores. Holectypus boschmai nov. spec. (pl. XIV)...

A sirenian skeleton from the Miocene of Eibergen, province of Gelderland, The Netherlands: Metaxytherium cf. medium Desmarest
Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Hooijer, D.A.
A sirenian skeleton, the major part of which was excavated from Miocene deposits at Eibergen near Winterswijk, belongs to Metaxytherium. The temporal crests on the parietals are well separated. The foramen magnum is pointed above. The mandible has a downturned symphysial body with four shallow alveoli on each side. The wide mandibular canal opens some distance behind the alveolus of M3. There are alveoli for one premolar (P4) and for three molars (M1-M3). Only M2 dext. is preserved; it has four main cusps and some accessory cusplets. The humerus, the shaft portion of which is missing, has a wide and marked bicipital groove. The vertebrae, with the exception of the atlas, are fragmentary. The spinous processes are solid, the centra porous. The ribs, a few...

A Miocene perspective on the evolution of the Amazonian biota
Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Wesselingh, F.P.; Salo, J.A.
Between c. 23 and 8 Ma, western Amazonia was occupied by the vast Pebas long-lived lake/wetland system. The Pebas system had a variety of influences over the evolution of Miocene and modern Amazonian biota; it formed a barrier for the exchange of terrestrial biota, a pathway for the transition of marine biota into freshwater Amazonian environments, and formed the stage of remarkable radiations of endemic molluscs and ostracods. The lithological variation of the Pebas Formation has furthermore enhanced edaphic heterogeneity in western Amazonia, sustaining present-day high terrestrial diversity in the region.

Autores: Rhebergen, F.
The type and only specimen of Fibrocoelia tubantiensis Van Kempen, that was housed in the palaeontological collection of the Geological Institute of the University of Amsterdam, has been reposited in the Netherlands Centre for Biodiversity – Naturalis, Leiden, the Netherlands. Syltrochos pyramidoidalis Von Hacht, placed in an uncertain order and family by Finks &amp; Rigby, is revised on the basis of new material. This has revealed that the skeleton is composed of spheroclones, so that the species has to be assigned to the Astylospongiidae von Zittel. The species name Carpospongia langei Von Hacht is invalid, being a junior synonym of Carpospongia pogrebowi Asatkin.

Autores: Hooijer, D.A.
In 1876 beschreef Van Beneden (1876: 799) resten van een kleine zeehond uit het Scaldisien van het Bekken van Antwerpen als Phocanella minor. Newton (1891: 19/20) meldde een humerus fragment van deze soort afkomstig uit het Nodule Bed van de Red Crag bij Foxhall, 4 mijl Z.W. van Woodbridge in Suffolk. Een fragment van een femur werd door Van Deinse (1927: 1363) gerapporteerd van de Groeve van Wiegerink ten noorden van Zwolle; dit zou tot nu toe de enige fossiele vondst van Phocanella minor uit ons land zijn. Het zwarte botje waarvan hier nu melding wordt gemaakt ontving ik van Dr. P. H. de Buisonjé en is afkomstig van een schelpenzuiger in de Westerschelde.

Fossil and modern sponge fauna of southern Australia and adjacent regions compared: interpretation, evolutionary and biogeographic significance of the late Eocene ‘soft’ sponges
Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Łukowiak, M.
The late Eocene ‘soft’ sponge fauna of southern Australia is reconstructed based on disassociated spicules and is used to interpret the paleoecology and environmental context of shallow marine communities in this region. The reconstructed sponge association was compared with coeval sponge assemblages from the Oamaru Diatomite, New Zealand, and with the modern ‘soft’ sponge fauna of southern coastal of Australia. Based on the predominance of shallow- and moderately shallow-water species, the late Eocene assemblage is interpreted to have inhabited waters depths of about 100 m. This contrast with the spicule assemblage from New Zealand, which characterized deeper waters based on the presence of numerous strictly deepwater sponge taxa, and the absence of...

Autores: Collins, J.S.H.; Donovan, S.K.; Stemann, T.A.; Blissett, D.J.
Crustaceans remain poorly known from the Miocene of Jamaica. Herein, we report three species from the upper Miocene August Town Formation of Fowl House Spring, parish of St. Thomas, southeast Jamaica; poorly preserved propodi of a mud shrimp, “Callianassa” sp.; the anterior part of the carapace of Mithraculus sp. aff. Mithraculus coryphe (Herbst); and the cirripede Tetraclita sp. cf. T. stalactifera (Lamarck). Mithraculus sp. aff. M. coryphe at Fowl House Spring considerably extends the stratigraphic occurrence of the genus in the Antillean region down into the Miocene. Hitherto, fossil T. stalactifera in the Caribbean was known from the Plio-Pleistocene of Curaçao and the Pleistocene of Venezuela.

A large collection of Neozanthopsis americana (Rathbun, 1928) from the Middle Eocene (Lutetian) Cane River Formation in Louisiana, USA, represents the first opportunity to describe the species in detail. Detailed analysis of associated teleost otoliths and other vertebrate remains documents a palaeoenvironmental setting characterised by a soft-sediment, inner-shelf setting with normal salinity under tropical or subtropical conditions. Anatomical and morphometric analysis of 21 of the better-preserved crabs demonstrates that gender discrimination cannot be made from dorsal carapace characteristics and that the sample represents post-juvenile individuals. Exocuticle and endocuticle are preserved on some specimens and document the presence of erect...

Pleistocene vertebrates from Celebes : XI. Molars and a tusked mandible of Archidiskodon celebensis Hooijer
Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Hooijer, D.A.
The species mentioned in the title of the present contribution was first described on the base of two incomplete upper molars, some fragments, and two portions of limb bones (Hooijer, 1949). The two and only complete molars were described later (Hooijer, 1953a). To this has been added the description of the milk dentition and of three premolars (Hooijer, 1953c). There are, however, important lacunae in our knowledge of the molar dentition to be filled. It remains as yet uncertain whether the type upper molar of 1949 represents M2 or M3, while the smaller of the complete lower molars of 1953 could be either M1 or M2. The prolonged study of the fragmentary molars in the Celebes collection has now made it possible to assemble the full set of upper and lower...

Autores: Kočová Veselská, M.; Kočí, T.; Kubajko, M.
Crustacea (dynomenid crabs and cirripedes) from the upper Cenomanian-lower Turonian nearshore, shallow-water bioclastic limestones to marly siltstones found along the southern and eastern margins of the Bohemian Cretaceous Basin (BCB) are described. Crabs are rather rare in this area, and mostly restricted to fragmentary pereiopods, i.e., isolated claws or dactyli. In view of the confused taxonomy of isolated claws, their proper identity could not be determined; they were mostly referred to the necrocarcinid genus Necrocarcinus Bell, 1863. A recent re-examination of material deposited in the collections of the National Museum (Národní Muzeum, Prague), and of new finds, has revealed that all allegedly necrocarcinid pereiopods and nearly all carapaces from...

Autores: Avram, E.
The Berriasian — lower Valanginian genus Leptoceras reappears in the lower Barremian sequences of Rumania, where it is represented by at least two species: L. brunneriforme sp. nov. and L. svinitense sp. nov. This record has led to a revision of the so far accepted taxonomic interpretation of the criomorph Barremian Leptoceratoidinae and of their relationship with the Berriasian-Valanginian Protancyloceratinae. In addition, a new species of the genus Hamulinites (H. nicklesi, from the uppermost Hauterivian) provides evidence that the genus Eoleptoceras Manolov should be considered valid.

The present record of two species of brachyurous decapod crustaceans, Costacopluma grayi Feldmann &amp; Portell, 2007 and Stevea martini sp. nov., from the lower Paleocene Pine Barren Member (Clayton Formation) in south-central Alabama, constitutes an extension of the range of the former and the sole occurrence of the latter. Previously, C. grayi was described from the middle Eocene Tallahatta Formation in Alabama. Stevea martini sp. nov. constitutes only the second species of the genus and the sole fossil occurrence known to date.

Miocene Decapoda and Mollusca from Ramsel (province of Antwerpen, Belgium), with a new crab genus and a new cephalopod species
Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Janssen, A.W.; Muller, P.
Reworked phosphoritic concretions from the base of the Diest Sands (Miocene) at Ramsel (Belgium) yield many magnificent crabs and molluscs in mould preservation. Two species of crabs are present, viz. Mursia lienharti (Bachmayer, 1961) and Tasadia carniolica (Bittner, 1884), Tasadia being a new genus. The palaeoecology of the decapod fauna is discussed and compared with Paratethyan occurrences. The age of the fauna in the concretions as indicated by the mollusc fauna is Middle Miocene, Hemmoorian, youngest Oxlundian. A similar fauna, also in reworked concretions, is known from the base of the Deurne Sands at Borgerhout (Antwerpen city area). A new coleoid cephalopod species, Spirulirostra baetensi sp. nov., is described. The European Spirulirostra and...

Substantiation of the Barremian/Aptian boundary
Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Bogdanova, T.N.; Prozorovsky, V.A.
This paper focuses on the Barremian/Aptian boundary in the Trans-Caspian area. Results of a stratigraphical study of the uppermost Barremian and the lower Aptian succession in the Trans-Caspian area are presented. The bed-by-bed description of three sections — Keldzhe, Tekedzhik and Utuludzha — is given as well as detailed lithologic columns. Five ammonite zones are known in the studied stratigraphic interval — the Turkmeniceras turkmenicum, Deshayesites tuarkyricus, D. weissi, D. deshayesi, and Dufrenoya furcata zones. These zones are correlated with those of Europe. The Barremian/ Aptian boundary in the Trans-Caspian area should be drawn at the base of the D. tuarkyricus Zone. It corresponds to the layers with the first occurrences of Deshayesites,...

On fossil and prehistoric remains of Tapirus from Java, Sumatra and China
Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Hooijer, D.A.
The tapir is an extremely rare element in the fossil Mammalian fauna of Java. In the enormous collection of fossil teeth and bones brought together in this island by Eug. Dubois in the years 1890 to 1900, the tapir is represented only by six teeth, originating from three localities in the Kendeng Mts., viz., Kedoeng Broeboes, Kedoeng Loemboe, and Kebon Doeren. Previous to his researches in Java, Dubois collected teeth in a number of caves in the Padang Highlands. In this Sumatran collection Tapirus is not uncommon. We possess one hundred and twenty complete, and a still larger number of broken teeth. Half of this collection originates from three caves, viz., the Lida Ajer cave near Pajakombo, the Sibrambang cave, and the Djamboe cave near Tapisello. The...

Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Ziegler, R.; Dahlmann, Th.; Reumer, J.W.F.; Storch, G.
Introduction Research of Miocene and Pliocene insectivores has a long history in Germany. Already in the middle of the 19th century Miocene insectivore species have been described from South German localities. Most of these were authored by Herman von Meyer, who deserves to be named a pioneer of German insectivores research. Weisenau, today part of the city of Mainz, is the type locality of Dimylus paradoxus described by von Meyer (1846:473). Haslach near Ulm yielded the type of Cordylodon haslachensis, also described by von Meyer (1859: 174). The widely known Steinheim fauna yielded among others the type of Parasorex socialis, again described by von Meyer (1865:884). Von Meyer often received fossils from private collectors for determination. Usually, he...

Early Miocene Cricetidae (Rodentia, Mammalia) from Buñol (Prov. Valencia, Spain)
Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Daams, R.; Freudenthal, M.
The Cricetidae remains from Buñol, collected by field parties of the Department of Paleontology (State University of Utrecht, The Netherlands), are described. Three previously known species have been recognized: Megacricetodon minor primitivus (Freudenthal, 1963), Democricetodon aff. hispanicus Freudenthal, 1967 and Fahlbuschia cf. koenigswaldi (Freudenthal, 1963). One new species is described: Eumyarion valencianum. The presence of M. m. primitivus points to an Early Miocene age (collongensis Assemblage-Zone).

Molluscs and Echinoderms from Palaeolithic deposits in the Rock Shelter of Ksâr'akil, Lebanon
Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Regteren, C.O. van.
INTRODUCTION The palaeolithic deposits of the rock shelter of Ksâr'Akil in the Antelias valley have been excavated by a group of American Jesuits in the years 1937-1938 and 1947-1948. Recently the fossil bones from these deposits were reported upon by my colleague Hooijer (1961). When he received the material for description it appeared that his samples contained a large collection of molluscan shells and a few spines of echinoderms as well. These are dealt with in the present paper. To the best of my knowledge they are all the remains of molluscs and echinoderms found during the excavation. For further details on the collection and the site I refer to Hooijer's paper, which also contains references to the literature on Ksâr'Akil. A few shells from the...

Autores: Álvarez Sierra, M.A.; García Paredes, I.; Hoek Ostende, L.W. van den; Meulen, A.J. van der; Peláez-Campomanes, P.; Sevilla, P.
The micromammal fauna from the Middle Miocene (Middle Aragonian) of La Retama, eastern central Spain, is described. It is a relatively poor rodent fauna composed by ten species only, associated to a highly diverse bat fauna, which includes five genera. The insectivores are represented by two species. This fossil assemblage has been correlated to zone Db (MN 5). The palaeoenvironmental reconstruction based on micromammals indicates open and dry conditions for this locality.    Se describen los micromamíferos del Mioceno medio (Aragoniense medio) de La Retama, sector centro-oriental español.

Pleistocene brachiopods are poorly known from the Antillean region, but are locally common in forereef deposits of Jamaica (lower Pleistocene Manchioneal Formation) and Barbados (Coral Rock). Of the four species known, two are new. Lacazella sp. cf. L. caribbeanensis Cooper, an encrusting thecideidean, is known from only three valves. Other species are terebratulides. Tichosina inconstanta sp. nov. is a large, ventribiconvex Tichosina species of elongate oval to tear-drop shaped outline, variably uniplicate with a pedicle foramen of moderate diameter. It differs from the similar Tichosina? bartletti (Dall) in having a larger pedicle foramen and a less-marked plication.

Members of Ataphridae became a progressive group in one of the two types of Tethyan faunas. Some of the new forms, which evolved from ataphrid ancestors, can be classified within the family, whilst others show a transitional morphology towards the turbinid subfamily Colloniinae. Other finds suggest a close relationship between Ataphridae and Crossostomatidae.

Introduction This chapter concerns Neogene (Miocene and Pliocene) insectivores from The Netherlands. The same biogeographical and tectonical realm, i.e. the southeastern part of the North Sea Basin, also has several sites in the western part of Germany, but these localities are discussed in the chapter on Germany (Ziegler et al., 2005). Most of the region concerned was covered by (often shallow) seas during most of the Neogene. A late Miocene coastline can be reconstructed as running in a SW- NE direction from Antwerp (Belgium), Liessel (The Netherlands, province of Noord-Brabant), Uedem/Kevelaer (Germany, Land Nordrhein-Westfalen), to Miste/Winterswijk (The Netherlands, province of Gelderland) by the finds of glauconitic greensand-deposits containing...

Janssen (editors)]: The bivalve shell as a preservation trap, as illustrated by the Late Jurassic gryphaeid, Deltoideum delta (Smith).
Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Todd, J.A.
Three processes by which a bivalve shell can preserve soft-bodied organisms during its secretion are described. These are: a) bioimmuration by the attachment area of a cementing bivalve, b) bioimmuration by a growth lamella and, c) deformation of the periostracal sheet. Examples of all three are provided by the Late Jurassic gryphaeid Deltoideum delta (Smith, 1817); Recent examples are also given. Extrapallial cement - here termed the Harper layer - is shown to have been produced throughout growth in this species, which allowed accurate lamellar bioimmuration as well as facultative recementation of the left valve. The importance of bivalve shell secretion for the preservation of unmineralized, hard-substrate-dwelling epibionts in the fossil record is...

Pleistocene vertebrates from Celebes : XII. Notes on pygmy stegodonts
Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Hooijer, D.A.
There is a reason for adding to the series "Pleistocene vertebrates from Celebes", which was brought to a conclusion just a decade ago, and which has since been summarized, with bibliographic references, e.g., in Van Heekeren (1957) and Hooijer (1959, 1960). The discovery of a pygmy stegodont in the island of Flores, Lesser Sunda Islands (Hooijer, 1964) brought me to a reconsideration of the evidence for a pygmy Stegodon in Celebes, which was considered inconclusive at the time, and restudy of all the fragmentary specimens in the Celebes collection not included in the published reports. As a result, all doubt concerning its status is removed; the Celebes Stegodon is decidedly smaller than Stegodon trigonocephalus Martin from Java. The evidence will be...

Belemnitellid coleoids abound at some levels within the Gulpen and Maastricht formations in the study area, and ‘belemnite graveyards’ have long been known from the Bovenste Bos (Epen) and Slenaken-Beutenaken areas in southern Limburg, the Netherlands. Recent studies have demonstrated the presence of at least three species of the genus Belemnitella d’Orbigny, 1840, and five of Belemnella Nowak, 1913, and its subgenera Belemnella, Pachybelemnella Schulz, 1979, and Neobelemnella Naidin, 1975. Representatives of Belemnitella junior Nowak, 1913, and Belemnella (Neobelemnella) gr. kazimiroviensis (Skołozdrówna, 1932) are the only coleoids to reach the Cretaceous-Paleogene (K/Pg) boundary, and members of the latter group may even have persisted into the earliest...

Three new giant prehistoric rats from Flores, Lesser Sunda Islands
Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Hooijer, D.A.
The specimens described in the present paper have been collected by Dr. Th. L. Verhoeven at Liang Toge, a cave near Warukia, 1 km south of a hamlet called Lepa, in Manggarai, western Flores. This cave, as well as many others explored in the island by Verhoeven (1952, 1953), contains a Mesolithic flake and blade industry (Van Heekeren, 1957, p. 107). The faunal remains obtained from Liang Toge consist almost exclusively of jaws and bones of large rats, and it is of interest to place these specimens on record as they represent forms that are new to science, different from the one and only giant rat that is still living on Flores, Papagomys armandvillei Jentink).

The purpose of the present paper is to place on record data on fossil Rhinocerotidae from Africa not included in earlier papers. Material has turned up in Africa in great quantities over the last decade, much from beautifully calibrated sequences especially in Ethiopia and the Baringo area of Kenya. Dreary descriptions of fossil teeth and bones are simply a prerequisite to construct, as is my aim, a sort of phylogeny of the rhinoceroses of Africa comparable to those long established for Europe or America. We have at this moment seven genera and a dozen or so species of Rhinocerotidae from the Neogene and the Quaternary, which will be dealt with below.

Autores: Mein, P.; Martín Suárez, E.; Agustí, J.
In this paper the various species and populations attributed to the genus Progonomys Schaub, 1938 are revised. Valerymys Michaux, 1969 is considered to be synonymous with Occitanomys Michaux, 1969, since the type-species V. ellenbergeri (Thaler, 1966) was included in Occitanomys by Aguilar et al. (1986a). Other species from Western Europe that had been included in Valerymys cannot be transferred to Occitanomys. They are the descendants of Progonomys cathalai, for which we create the new genus Huerzelerimys, that includes the known species H. vireti (Schaub, 1938), H. turoliensis (Michaux, 1969) and H. oreopitheci (Engesser, 1989), and the new species H. minor.

A Late Cretaceous gastropod homing scar (possibly ichnogenus Lacrimichnus) from southern Limburg, The Netherlands
Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Jagt, J.W.M.
An isolated gastropod homing scar, etched into an arcoscalpelline (cirripede) scutum, is recorded from the upper Nekum Member (Maastricht Formation, upper Maastrichtian) at the ENCI-HeidelbergCement Group quarry. This trace may be assignable to the ichnogenus Lacrimichnus Santos, Mayoral &amp; Muñiz, that comprises etching scars produced by Neogene calyptraeid and/or capulid gastropods and ostreid bivalves from southern Spain and Portugal. However, it differs from both ichnospecies currently contained in that ichnogenus, L. bonarensis and L. cacelensis, in showing a relatively deep depression around the rim, irregularly distributed pit- and slit-like depressions, and an irregularly subcircular outline.

[The fossil record of the Eurasian Neogene insectivores (Erinaceomorpha, Soricomorpha, Mammalia) : Part I / L.W. van den Hoek Ostende, C.S. Doukas and J.W.F. Reumer (editors)]: Greece
Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Doukas, C.S.
Introduction The Neogene insectivores from Greece span an interval from Early Miocene to Biharian but certainly do not represent a continuous succession. The first reference of small mammals in Greece is by Dames (1883), who described Mus [=Parapodemus] gaudryi from the classical locality of Pikermi. The first report of an insectivore is again from Pikermi. Thenius (1952) described a fragmentary mandible with p2-m2 sin., plus an isolated p4 dex. as Galerix exilis. Doukas et al. (1995) referred the specimen to Schizogalerix moedligensis. Credit should be given here to Hans de Bruijn (Utrecht University), who was instrumental in promoting small mammal research in Greece. The search and research for small mammals started in earnest in 1970, when De Bruijn...

The identity of Isocrassina, Laevastarte and Ashtarotha (Mollusca, Bivalvia, Astartidae) and their representatives from beaches and estuaries in The Netherlands and Pliocene strata in Belgium
Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Pouwer, R.
The identity of the subgenera Isocrassina Chavan, 1950, Laevastarte Hinsch, 1952, and Ashtarotha Dall, 1903, of the genus Astarte Sowerby, 1816 in the family Astartidae (Mollusca, Bivalvia) is discussed. Isocrassina has been widely used for Pliocene species in the North Sea Basin. Here it is demonstrated, that this is based on a redefinition of this subgenus, which excludes its type-species. As the North Sea species differ considerably from the type-species of Isocrassina in aspects of ornament and details of the hinge, it is concluded that they should be placed in the genus Laevastarte. A slightly modified definition of Isocrassina and Laevastarte is given and both are raised to genus level. The morphological basis for Ashtarotha is quite weak and it is...

Fish microfossils from Ramsåsa, site E, Scania, southern Sweden (mid Palaeozoic)
Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Vergoossen, J.M.J.
Material from three pieces of rock from Ramsåsa, site E, was divided into size fractions 0.106, 0.212, 0.355, 0.425 and 0.5 mm. Larger sizes were absent. The three assemblages were examined and compared with each other, also per fraction, and with residue samples from site E. The latter are proportionately not representative of the faunas of which they must have been part, specimens measuring 0.5 mm or more. The residue labels refer to Ørvig and his student Peyel. The results of the comparison between the assemblages from the rocks and from the residues are hardly complementary. Thelodont scales were obtained almost exclusively from the pieces of rock; acanthodian ‘modified trunk’ scales, spines and jawbones and rare birkeniid remains were restricted to...

Pseudocriboconcha prinsi gen. et sp. nov. (Ostracoda) from the late Mississippian (Carboniferous) of the Cantabrian Zone (northern Spain)
Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Sánchez de Posada, L.C.; Sanz-López, J.
A new ostracod found in the Mississippian of the Cantabrian Mountains shows ornamental features similar to Criboconcha Cooper, hitherto known from Mississippian and Pennsylvanian strata of different parts of the world (especially from the U.S.A.). However, some features of this ostracod are very different from the typical characteristcs of the Healdiidae and support bairdiocyproidean affinities. The new genus Pseudocriboconcha (type species Pseudocriboconcha prinsi sp. nov.) is proposed. This species is distinguishedby distinct pits on the lateral surface; a posterior ridge ending in dorsal and ventral spines; a rounded rim parallel to the borders of each valve; and a spine on this rim, above the anterior end and directed dorsally or anterodorsally.

The stratigraphic positions of the Wadi Dukhan and Al Uwayliah formations, northeast Libya – a review
Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Tmalla, A.F.A.
The stratigraphic positions of the Wadi Dukhan and Al Uwayliah formations are reviewed. Diagnostic Maastrichtian larger foraminiferal species from the Wadi Dukhan Formation in well B7 – 41 (Cyrenaica) and in well U2 – 6 (northeastern Sirt Basin) are illustrated for the first time. These species are Omphalocyclus macroporus (Lamarck), Siderolites cf. calcitrapoides Lamarck and Orbitoides cf. media (d’Archiac).   Following the rules of nomenclature, the type section of the Al Uwayliah Formation should be considered a composite stratotype. The section east of al Uwayliah village is the holostratotype (upper part of the formation) and the Jardas al Jarrari section is the parastratotype (lower part of the formation). The combined thickness of the two component...

Autores: Donovan, S.K.; Lewis, D.N.
The specific diversity of fossil crinoids from the Much Wenlock Limestone Formation at Dudley, Worcestershire, and in Shropshire differ by an order of magnitude. The latter are relatively depauperate and include only about six nominal species. Over 165 years ago, a specimen from Coalbrookdale, Shropshire, was identified as Cyathocrinites tuberculatus Miller (= the taxocrinid flexible Protaxocrinus tuberculatus (Miller)). This specimen, although indifferently preserved, is distinct from other Silurian crinoids of the British Isles and is described herein as a monobathrid camerate, Macrostylocrinus? jefferiesi sp. nov. This species has a moderately large, conical dorsal cup with at least 20 arms, broad primibrachials, a granular surface sculpture and no ray...

Comments on Acantinella, Preangeria and Taurasia (Muricidae, Drupinae)
Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Beets, C.
A number of species of Drupinae, all quite unusual faunal elements, which up to now have been assigned to such genera as Taurasia, apparently confined to the South European Miocene, or Preangeria, Acantinella and Acanthinucella of the Southeast Asian Miocene are reconsidered. On the basis of their unique columellar features it is presently proposed to unite Acantinella, Preangeria and Taurasia, the last name taking priority. Two new species are described: Taurasia niasensis and T. pendopoensis, from Indonesian Plio-Pleistocene and Miocene, respectively. A living Indo-Western Pacific species, called Purpura buccinea since 1844, is reclassified as presumably the only representative of Taurasia in the Recent fauna known to date.

Cricetidae and Gliridae (Rodentia, Mammalia) from the Miocene and Pliocene of southern Spain
Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: García-Alix, A.; Minwer-Barakat, R.; Martín-Suárez, E.; Freudenthal, M.
Several Miocene and Pliocene continental fossiliferous localities in the Granada and Guadix basins have yielded fossil micromammals. Cricetids and glirids are known from most of these localities. This paper deals with the genera Apocricetus, Ruscinomys, Blancomys and Eliomys. The Cricetidae are important biostratigraphical markers, especially Apocricetus. The presence of A. barrierei in the locality PUR-4 indicates the beginning of the Early Ruscinian. The continuous record of Ruscinomys during the Late Turolian and the Early Ruscinian corroborates the lineage between R. schaubi and R. lasallei. The occurrence of a large specimen of Blancomys in the Granada Basin seems to indicate two phylogenetic lineages during the Late Turolian. The studied specimens of...

Note on subfossil teeth of Equus zebra L. from Orange free State
Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Hooijer, D.A.
Some time ago Dr. L. D. Brongersma, curator of the Leiden Museum, entrusted me for examination some subfossil equine teeth, received from Mr. H. van Hoepen, who had found them between Glen and Mazelspoort, in Orange Free State. The teeth proved to belong all to one and the same individual, and to constitute the entire upper premolar-molar-series of the right side, almost undamaged. The importance of this find is evident, as most of the fossil or subfossil equine species from S. Africa are based on isolated teeth. An inner view of our specimen is given in pl. VI lower figure, the crown surfaces are represented in the upper figure of the same plate. It can be seen, that the P4 is the longest tooth, its height is 72 mm. The mesostyle is prominent, and...

Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Leloux, J.
A lectotype has been assigned for Placosmilia? robusta Umbgrove, 1925. This taxon, although fitting into the original diagnosis of Placosmilia, is not defined by the emended diagnosis of Alloiteau and later authors. Specimens from the Upper Maastrichtian of The Netherlands, that were formerly wrongly attributed to Galaxea fasciculata (Lamarck, 1816), a homonym of the extant species Galaxea fascicularis (Linnaeus, 1758), belong to Placocoenia macrophthalma (Goldfuss, 1826). The specimen depicted as P. macrophthalma by Umbgrove does not belong to this taxon and is placed in open nomenclature.

The sabre-toothed cat Megantereon from the Pleistocene of Java
Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Kurtén, B.
In April 1961 the present author made a study of the fossil Carnivora from Java in the Dubois Collection, of the Rijksmuseum van Natuurlijke Historie, Leiden. Among a lot of unidentified specimens, one was found to represent a sabre-toothed cat of a type not hitherto known from the Pleistocene of Java. The only sabre-tooth so far known from the Pleistocene of Java is Homotherium zwierzyckii (Koenigswald), which occurs in the Djetis fauna. The new form is certainly not a Homotherium, and may be identified as a member of the genus Megantereon. Thus it can be shown that both of the characteristic Pleistocene Old World forms of machairodont cats were represented in Java. Though the genus Megantereon does not survive in post-Villafranchian times in Europe, as...

In this paper, a revision of the Pliocene and Quaternary Lutrinae from Europe is presented. Such a revision, including fossil material, has not been published since the work of Pohle (1919). Three tribes within the Lutrinae are recognized: the Lutrini, the Aonyxini and the Enhydrini. The latter comprises both Enhydra and the Enhydriodon group. The genus Nesolutra, consisting of three insular species, is not retained. Two are included in Lutra and for N. ichnusae a new genus, Sardolutra, is proposed. The genus Isolalutra is not retained either. Its only species, I. cretensis, is included in the genus Lutrogale. Some new material of this species is described.

Autores: Hardjasasmita, H.S.
Fossil and extant suids from Indonesia, ranging in age from Pliocene? to Recent, are revised. All material is ascribed to the genus Sus, except two species found on Sulawesi (Celebes) which belong to Babyrousa and Celebochoerus, respectively. From the ten Recent species and subspecies recognised, one from the Island of Flores - Sus heureni - is described as new. The Recent species are compared with the fossil ones on the basis of the same morphological characters. As a result uniformity is achieved in the classification of the extant and fossil suids. Based on this classification, the phylogeny, evolution and biostratigraphy of the various Javanese species of the genus Sus are discussed.

Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Kozur, H.; Kampschuur, W.; Mulder-Blanken, C. W. H.; Simon, O.J.
Ostracodes are reported for the first time from epimetamorphic, strongly tectonized Triassic rock sequences from the internal part of the Betic Cordilleras. Three ostracode-zones have been established. The lower and middle zones are attributed to the Late Ladinian (Longobardian) and the upper zone to the Early Carnian (Cordevolian). Several new species and subspecies are described (Acratina muelleri, Judahella pulchra posterospinosa, Falloticythere mulderae, F. rondeeli, Lutkevichinella? egeleri, Mostlerella blumenthali blumenthali, M. b. minuta, Leviella sohni) and a new genus (Falloticythere).

Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Harper, E.M.; Skelton, P.W.
The well documented dramatic increase in predation pressure which started during the early Mesozoic, termed the Mesozoic Marine Revolution (MMR), had an important impact on the evolution of prey organisms (Vermeij, 1983). Epifaunal bivalves in particular are at considerable risk to predation. In this paper we consider the types of predation to which epifaunal bivalves are prone and outline the evolutionary history of the different modes of predation. We explore methods by which bivalves are known to evade these activities and chart the appearance of these defences in the fossil record. These sections involve both review of the massive existing literature on molluscivory and the presentation of new experimental data, in particular on the value of...

A new collection of over three hundred bird bones from the Upper Miocene of Gargano is described. Eight different orders are represented: Anseriformes (1 species), Falconiformes (2), Galliformes (1), Strigiformes (6), Columbiformes (1), Apodiformes (1), Piciformes (1) and Passeriformes. Two of the three new species are assigned to extant genera: Columba omnisanctorum and Apus wetmorei, while a new strigid owl of the size of Nyctea scandiaca is believed to represent a new endemic genus. It is provisionally called Strix ? perpasta. The increase in size of the Accipitridae and the Strigiformes allows to distinguish five different biozones and thus to arrange a number of localities into a stratigraphical sequence.

In this paper 11 species of rodents are described, that have been found in the fossiliferous karst fissure of Alozaina (Malaga, Spain). Three species of Stephanomys (Murinae) are present in this fauna: S. thaleri, S. minor, and the new species S. prietaensis. The latter exhibits a lesser degree of evolution than Stephanomys balcellsi from Valdeganga 7 and Islas Medas. The association of rodents from Alozaina is a new one for the Upper Pliocene in Spain. It indicates that the locality of Alozaina is younger than Moreda 1B and Rambla Seca Ab, and older than Valdeganga 7.

Considerations on most Rugosa and the Dividocorallia from de Groot’s (1963) collection
Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Fedorowski, J.
Rugose corals reinvestigated herein constitute the main part of the collection described by de Groot (1963). The taxonomy proposed herein differs in several instances from that accepted originally by de Groot. Some changes, such as Petalaxis for Lithostrotionella and Calophyllum instead of Polycoelia, were already introduced in de Groot’s unpublished catalogue. Others were introduced in order to match the recent advances in rugose coral systematics. Most systematic changes were based on new microstructural, diagenetic and hystero-ontogenetic studies. These are described in detail for individual species and briefly discussed in the concluding considerations. Trabecular microstructure of septa and its diagenetic alteration was documented for most species....

Hipparions of the Laetolil Beds, Tanzania
Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Hooijer, D.A.
The Laetolil Beds in Tanzania, 20-30 miles south of Olduvai Gorge, have been extensively sampled by parties under the leadership of Mrs. Dr. Mary D. Leakey, who very kindly sent me Hipparion material collected in 1974, 1975, and 1976. In a restudy of proboscidean material from these beds described by Dietrich (1942), Maglio (1969) arrived at the conclusion that the Laetolil fauna represents two distinct horizons, one seemingly correlating best with Kanapoi, Yellow Sands (= Mursi Formation), Chemeron, and Kanam, and younger deposits correlating best with the later Omo Beds, possibly antedating Olduvai Bed I but only by a short time interval. This has been confirmed by radiometric dating: the Laetolil Beds with the older fauna are bracketed in time between...

Late Cretaceous dwarf decapods from Guerrero, southern Mexico and their migration patterns
Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Fraaije, R.H.B.; Vega, F.J.; Bakel, B.W.M. van; Garibay-Romero, L.M.
Two new brachyuran species are described for the Upper Cretaceous Mexcala Formation, Guerrero State, Mexico. Longusorbis quadratus new species (Coniacian, Temalac region) is the oldest and southernmost record for the genus. Xanthosia zoquiapensis new species (Campanian, Zoquiapa region) is the first record for the genus in Mexico. In addition, the age for Costacopluma bishopi Vega and Feldmann is discussed (Coniacian, Temalac region) and represents the oldest and southernmost record for Cretaceous representatives of this genus in North America. All specimens are considerably smaller compared to other species of the same genera and are interpreted as the first example of brachyuran dwarfism in the geological record. These species add new insight into...

The relationships of Cuspicephalus scarfi Martill and Etches, 2013 and Normannognathus wellnhoferi Buffetaut et al., 1998 to other monofenestratan pterosaurs
Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Witton, M.P.; O'Sullivan, M.; Martill, D.M.
The evolution of pterodactyloid pterosaurs occurred in a ‘modular’ fashion with ‘pterodactyloid’-type crania and cervical vertebrae evolving in pterodactyloid sister taxa – early monofenestratan pterosaurs – before later postcervical modifications marked the development of the true pterodactyloid condition. This means of evolution creates problems for distinguishing isolated pterodactyloid crania from those of non-pterodactyloid monofenestratans, and has led to uncertainty over the affinities of two Late Jurassic European pterosaurs known only from skulls, Cuspicephalus scarfi Martill and Etches, 2013 and Normannognathus wellnhoferi Buffetaut et al., 1998. Some aspects of their cranial anatomy suggest affinities to early pterodactyloids – specifically the...

A reassessment of extinct species, fourteen in all, found in Europe and attributed to Calappilia has been carried out. For each species a short diagnosis is provided, and where necessary, its systematic position is reconsidered. Calappilia dacica lyrata is here elevated to species rank, while C. mainii is reassigned to Stenodromia A. Milne Edwards in Bouillé, 1873 and C. sexdentata is considered to be a nomen nudum. Photographs are provided of all type specimens available to us; most of these had so far been known only from (partially inaccurate) line drawings. For the first time, well-preserved chelipeds are described for the genus, having been found in articulation with a carapace of C. dacica.

Deshayesitid ammonites from the lower Aptian (Lower Cretaceous) of North-East Greenland
Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Kelly, S.R.A.; Whitham, A.G.
Two deshayesitid ammonite assemblages are described from the Lower Cretaceous succession of the north coast of Hold with Hope, North-East Greenland, and their biostratigraphical significance is assessed. In the earlier assemblage Prodeshayesites cf. bodei and P. laeviusculus occur. The second assemblage contains Deshayesites boegvadi. The presence of P. cf. bodei suggests that the northwest European bodei Subzone of the fissicostatus Zone is represented in North-East Greenland. The occurrence of D. boegvadi, previously recorded only from Kuhn q, probably indicates the later part of the fissicostatus Zone, or the forbesi or deshayesi zones. Other occurrences of Greenland deshayesitid ammonites are discussed briefly. The new finds from Hold with Hope are...

On relict hydrobiid species in Brazilian Amazonia (Gastropoda, Prosobranchia, Hydrobiidae)
Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Wesselingh, F.P.
Two extant hydrobiid species from the lower Tapajos river of Brazil are redescribed. Potamopyrgus amazonicus Haas, 1949, is assigned to the genus Dyris Conrad, 1871. At least eleven species from Miocene deposits of Western Amazonia are assigned to Dyris, a genus that was previously assumed to be extinct. The apertural features of Sioliella effusa Haas, 1949, are considered indicative of a close relationship to Miocene Amazonian taxa formaly assigned to Eubora Kadolsky, 1980. Sioliella ovata spec. nov., a Miocene species resembling S. effusa is described. The two Tapajos species can be regarded as relicts of a speciose, endemic, Miocene Western Amazonian molluscan fauna.

A new genus of Muridae, Microtia, is described and three species M. magna, M. parva, and M. maiuscula are ascribed to it. The size and morphology of Microtia molars show a very wide variation which is interpreted as an evolutionary trend, and used to establish an age sequence for a large number of fissure fillings, that show no stratigraphic correlation in the field. This sequence serves as a background for the study of the birds from Gargano by Ballmann.

[The fossil record of the Eurasian Neogene insectivores (Erinaceomorpha, Soricomorpha, Mammalia) : Part I / L.W. van den Hoek Ostende, C.S. Doukas and J.W.F. Reumer (editors)]: Romania
Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Rzebik-Kowalska, B.
Introduction The oldest descriptions of Romanian fossil insectivores date from the 1930s. At that time, I. Simionescu described two Early Pliocene localities, Măluşteni (in 1930) and Bereşti (in 1932), both containing a rich mammal fauna. Among the insectivores, Simionescu identified such genera as Erinaceus, Talpa, Myogale and Sorex. After the Second World War the palaeontologists C. Rădulescu, P.-M. Samson, E. Terzea, M.C. Feru, T. Jurcsák and E. Ştiucãpublished papers on the insectivores. Rădulescu and Samson described and commented upon numerous faunal complexes and species from Romania, spanning the time scale from the Middle Miocene to the end of the Pleistocene (Rădulescu &amp; Samson 1984, 1985, 1987, 1989, 1995a, b, 2001; Rădulescu et al., 1993,...

Hipparions from the late Miocene and Pliocene of Northwestern Kenya
Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Hooijer, D.A.; Maglio, V.J.
The faunas of Lothagam, Kanapoi and Ekora on the west side of Lake Rudolf in Kenya include well-preserved Hipparion material. The most interesting species is represented by a skull from Lothagam that is devoid of a preorbital fossa : Hipparion turkanense Hooijer &amp; Maglio. The upper cheek teeth have small fossette plications and rather wrinkled anteroposterior fossette borders; the lower cheek teeth also show this wrinkled enamel condition, notably on the buccal wall, and sport no ectostylids. The closest resemblances are with certain Chinese "Pontian" forms described by Sefve. An equally large Hipparion with a preorbital fossa occurs at Kanapoi and Ekora. The upper cheek teeth are richly plicated fore and aft, and the anteroposterior fossette borders...

The anatomy of the king crab Hapalogaster mertensii Brandt, 1850 (Anomura: Paguroidea: Hapalogastridae): new insights into the evolutionary transformation of hermit crabs into king crabs
Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Keiler, J.; Richter, S.; Wirkner, C.S.
The emergence of king crabs from a hermit crab-like ancestor is one of the most curious events in decapod evolution. King crabs comprise two taxa, Lithodidae and Hapalogastridae, and while lithodids have formed the focus of various anatomical studies, the internal anatomy of hapalogastrids has never been studied although this group might represent a more ancestral morphological condition within king crabs than lithodids do. To better understand the evolutionary transformation of pagurid-like hermit crabs into king crabs, we studied the hemolymph vascular system and associated organs of representatives of Hapalogaster and present here the first micro-computer tomography data pertaining to the internal anatomy of hapalogastrids. Our results for...

The number of known sciurid and petauristid fossils from The Netherlands is nearly doubled with the description of material from the Zuurland boreholes, the Maasvlakte, and the Tegelen claypit. The material from Tegelen is assigned to a new species of flying squirrel, Hylopetes debruijni nov. sp. One molar from the late Early Pleistocene of the Zuurland borehole is assigned to Sciurus cf. S. vulgaris. The remaining finds from the Tiglian of the Zuurland boreholes, as well as the single molar from the Maasvlakte, are all assigned to Spermophilus primigenius; this name is preferred over the suggestive use of names of recent ground squirrels for fossil material. The presence, during roughly the same stratigraphic interval, of a flying squirrel in Tegelen and...

Autores: Willemsen, G.F.
A new lutrine species, Paralutra garganensis, is described from the Miocene of the Gargano area, Italy. The material consists of a maxillary fragment with P4 and M1 and a calcaneum. There is a clear resemblance with P. jaegeri (Fraas), but the talon of the P4 is larger in the Gargano species. Also, the latter species was larger. It is concluded, that P. jaegeri was ancestral to P. garganensis, and that the latter probably fed on shellfish to a greater extent than the former.

Autores: Hoek Ostende, L.W. van den.
Two species of dormouse have been found in the Upper Pliocene clays of Tegelen, Muscardinus pliocaenicus and Glirulus pusillus. The latter is the first record of this genus in The Netherlands. Muscardinus pliocaenicus shows derived characteristics and is close to the Recent hazelmouse M. avellanarius. The record of Glirulus pusillus is one of the last in Europe. Like the flying squirrel Hylopetes debruijni, also known from Tegelen, G. pussilus ranks among a group of Pliocene animals with its living relatives in Asia. Thus, there is an analogy with the Tertiary flora, which also has relicts in the same area.

Autores: Vasícek, Z.
New records of heteromorph ammonites from the Silesian Unit of the Outer Western Carpathians (Czech Republic) are represented especially by small pyrite steinkerns with suture lines preserved. A lesser proportion of them belongs to representatives of the subfamily Bochianitidae from the Valanginian. Among the most interesting is Baculina rouyana d’Orbigny. Another group consists primarily of lower Barremian Leptoceratoidinae. In addition to commonly occurring species of Hamulinites and Leptoceratoides, an Eoheteroceras assemblage is often found, represented partially by new elements. Heteromorphs from the Northern Calcareous Alps (Austria) come from marly Hauterivian limestones. Ptychoceras meyrati is present through most of the Hauterivian. Well-dated...

Five species of Vitrinellidae have been found in the Holocene shell ridges of Surinam. Of these, Vitrinella (Striovitrinella) cupidinensis,Cochliolepis surinamensis, and Solariorbis guianensis are new species, while Cyclostremiscus caraboboensis Weisbord is known from Pliocene beds in Venezuela and Teinostoma (Pseudorotella) schumoi Vanatta belongs to the Recent fauna of Guatemala. A paratype of Vitrinella cupidinensis spec. nov. was found on Olinda beach near Recife, Brazil, and clearly is a Recent shell. It seems possible, and even likely, that eventually all five species will appear to be still living in the same general region.

A Namurian brachiopod fauna from Meré (Province of Oviedo, Spain)
Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Martínez Chacón, M.L.; Winkler Prins, C.F.
An interesting brachiopod fauna from Namurian (Marsdenian?) deposits — provisionally named the Meré beds herein — is described. The fauna contains seven new species: Drahanorhynchus cantabricus, Anopliopsis? parva, Caenanoplia martinezi, Tornquistia scutiformis, Aseptella asturica, Kitakamithyris merensis, and Plicotorynifer lamellosus; and one new genus: Aseptella with the type species A. asturica. The material of a new productellid and a new ambocoeliid was too poor to give them formal names. The special character of this fauna — only a much older fauna from the Chappel Limestone of Texas (U.S.A.) being closely comparable — indicates special environmental conditions: presumably a soft, muddy bottom. The brachiopod fauna indicates a Namurian, probably...

Introduction The fossil record of insectivores in Czech Republic comes from two different settings: A. in the stratified deposits in the North Bohemian tectonic rift (the sites; Tuchořice, the Open Mine Merkur-Nord near Chomutov, Dolnice and Františkovy Lázně (Franzensbad), and Β. in the karstic fillings at Suchomasty. The richest occurrence of insectivores is in the coal seam in Merkur Nord; in the thermal spring travertines at Tuchořice the small mammals are generally very rare. Detailed taxonomic descriptions of the faunas are being prepared. The record of fossil insectivores in the Slovak territory of the Western Carpathians are not as frequent as finds of rodents.

Stratigraphy of the type Maastrichtian – a synthesis
Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Jagt, J.W.M.; Jagt-Yazykova, E.A.
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...

Deinogalerix koenigswaldi nov. gen., nov. spec., a giant insectivore from the Neogene of Italy
Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Freudenthal, M.
Deinogalerix koenigswaldi nov. gen., nov. spec. is the largest insectivore known so far. It is represented by an almost complete skeleton and a good number of isolated teeth and bones. These prove a considerable sexual dimorphism. It is supposed that these animals were scavengers. The time-range of Deinogalerix is within the Upper Miocene.

Dentaliids (Mollusca, Scaphopoda) from the type Maastrichtian, the Netherlands and Belgium
Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Donovan, S.K.; Jagt, J.W.M.
Scaphopods remain poorly known from the type area of the Maastrichtian Stage in northeast Belgium and the southeast Netherlands. At least three species appear to be represented, but incomplete preservation (i.e., lack of shell material) hampers a detailed systematic treatment of most specimens. In museum collections, the name Dentalium nysti Binkhorst van den Binkhorst, 1861 (= D. binkhorsti Pilsbry &amp; Sharp, 1898; non D. nysti d’Orbigny, 1852) is often used rather indiscriminately for both genuine scaphopods and internal moulds of serpulid worm tubes. Here, we describe and illustrate Antalis? binkhorsti, Fissidentalium? sp. 1 and Dentaliidae sp. indet., all of Maastrichtian age, as well as a late Campanian form, Fissidentalium? sp. 2.

The Cerro de los Batallones (Los Batallones Butte) is located in the central-northern area of the Madrid Basin, central Spain. Nine vertebrates localities containing a large variety of mammals of Upper Vallesian Age (Late Miocene) have been found associated with the sediments forming the butte. From bottom to top, these sediments consist of magnesian lutite beds (Unit I), paleosols formed of sepiolite and opal (Unit II), and siliclastic, marlstone and carbonate beds (Unit III). The set of ERT profiles developed in Los Batallones Butte have demonstrate that electrical imaging techniques are an estimable tool for the characterization and prospecting of fossil sites developed in fine-grained siliciclastic sequences. These localities contain an exceptionally...

A single, slightly laterally compressed carapace of a dromioid crab from the middle/upper Albian part of the Kazhdumi Formation in the Hamiran area (Hormozgan Province, southwest Iran) is described as a new species, which is tentatively assigned to the brachyuran genus Distefania Checchia-Rispoli, 1917, D.(?) tangishirazensis. This constitutes the first record of the genus from the Middle East. In addition, from the long-defunct Rauen quarry at Kassenberg, near Mülheim-Broich (northwest Germany), a carapace of D. incerta and a rather battered cheliped of the ‘form genus’ Roemerus Bishop, 1983 are recorded from the upper Cenomanian portion of that section, thus adding to previous records of these taxa from Germany.

Functional morphology and fur patterns in Recent and fossil Panthera species
Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Nagel, D.; Hilsberg, S.; Benesch, A.; Scholz, J.
According to caves drawings, male specimens of ice age cave lions lacked a mane. Ethological observations of the recent subspecies showed the significance of the mane of male lions (Panthera leo) in intraspecific social interaction. For the Pleistocene lion, there are two possible implications; the social system was different from the modern subspecies or the cooler climate did not allow the development of manes. Whereas the former can only be discussed, the latter is supported by evidence based on infrared thermography and considerations on thermoregulation. Thermal images of the recent subspecies clearly demonstrate the significance of mane development in terms of functional morphology. Probably, manes in felids can develop in warm climate only. The mane...

Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Krzyminska, J.
Investigations were carried out at the State Geological Institute (Marine Geology Branch, Sopot, Poland) on the base of 2500 samples collected by means of a van Veen grab during research cruises in 1973-1990. For a macroscopic description of four species of Mollusca present in the bottom sediment samples, i.e. Cerastodermas glaucum (Poiret), Macoma balthica (Linnaeus), Mya arenaria (Linnaeus), and Mytilus edulis (Linnaeus), both living and dead specimens have been taken into account. A biofacial distribution map for these four species is presented. It is concluded that the type of sediment and the sea depth are the most important factors influencing the distribution of the species.

Two new species of Pseudocricetodon are described: P. simplex sp. nov. is characterised by a simple dental pattern in the lower molars. It has been discovered almost simultaneously in Oligocene beds near Martín del Río (Teruel Basin) and near Alcorisa on the southern border of the Ebro Basin. P. adroveri sp. nov. had previously been described from Vivel del Río as P. aff. thaleri, and is characterised by a complex dental pattern. These two new species change the current ideas on the evolution of the genus Pseudocricetodon.

The fossil elephant remains recently discovered in S. Celebes by Mr. H. R. van Heekeren, and entrusted to me by Prof. Dr. A. J. Bernet Kempers, Head of the Archaeological Survey of the Dutch East Indies, belong to a small form of the genus Archidiskodon. These specimens, described and figured in the present paper, give the first evidence of the existence of Proboscidea in the island of Celebes. As stated already in earlier notes on the fossils in Mr. Van Heekeren's collection (Hooijer, 1948a, 1948b, 1948c) this elephant is associated with a fauna containing a peculiar suid (Celebochoerus heekereni Hooijer), a babirusa (Babyrousa babyrussa beruensis Hooijer), an anoa (Anoa depressicornis (Smith) subsp.), and a gigantic land-tortoise (Testudo margae...

Preliminary report on a field campaign in the continental Pleistocene of Tegelen, the Netherlands
Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Freudenthal, M.; Meijer, T.; Meulen, A. J. van der.
By means of modernized sieving techniques 110 m3 of matrix from a gully filling in the Tegelen Clay were sieved. This yielded a good collection of small mammals, which clarifies the stratigraphic position of the Tiglian, a collection of other vertebrates, a small collection of mollusks, and a vast amount of plant material. A good collection of mollusks was made through classical collecting techniques. The faunal lists in this paper constitute a considerable enlargement of the known Tegelen fauna. Collecting is continuing, and further additions to the fauna may be expected.

Only four cerioid species of scleractinian corals have been described from the Maastrichtian in its type area; the montlivaltiid Isastrea angulosa (Goldfuss, 1826), and the astrocoeniids Actinastrea goldfussi d’Orbigny, 1849, A. faujasi (Quenstedt, 1881) and Columastrea fallax Umbgrove, 1925. A lectotype is selected for the latter species. A new cerioid species, Columactinastraea anthonii sp. nov., is recorded from the middle part of the Meerssen Member (Maastricht Formation) at the ENCI Quarry, Zuid Limburg, The Netherlands. It is well-preserved and differs from other Columactinastraea species mainly by the relatively large diameter of its lumen.

The Working Group proposes only one modification to its current zonation of the Mediterranean Region, the addition of a cristatum Subzone in the lower part of the inflatum Zone (upper Albian). But in the light of newly published research it highlights levels/areas where further work is required, especially to resolve conflicting zonal schemes. It also proposes a 'Tethyan Province' zonation for the middle Albian. Alternative correlations for the Boreal/Tethyan Valanginian to Barremian stages are tabulated, one based on ammonite evidence alone, the other with additional biostratigraphical data coupled with sequence stratigraphy and magnetostratigraphy.

Another extinct congener in the northeast Pacific region, Hyas tsuchidai Imaizumi, 1952, from the Upper Miocene Wakkanai Formation of northern Hokkaido, Japan. The earliest fossil record of the genus Hyas is from the ‘lower Badenian’ (Langhian, early Middle Miocene) of Austria. If Hyas originated in the Paratethys prior to...

Miocene freshwater Mollusca from western Brazilian Amazonia
Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Wesselingh, F.P.; Ranzi, A.; Räsänen, M.E.
Thirteen species of fossil molluscs are reported from the Solimões Formation of western Brazilian Amazonia. Based on mammalian chronology of the Solimões Formation and radiometric ages reported from coeval deposits in adjacent Peru, the age of the fauna is established as Late Miocene. The fauna includes five prosobranch gastropod species, seven pearly freshwater mussel species and one sphaeriid bivalve species. The supposed presence of Pachydon (Corbulidae: Bivalvia) in these deposits is rejected; Pachydon acreanum, whose status has long been uncertain, is transferred to the unionoid genus Callonaia. The Solimões mollusc fauna is entirely composed of obligate freshwater taxa, resembling species-poor modern Amazonian fluvial faunas. The presence of the...

Correlation of Albian European and Tethyan ammonite zonations and the boundaries of the Albian Stage and substages: some comments
Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Owen, H.G.
Although the so-called ‘standard’ ammonite zonation of the Albian contains index species which occur in the Tethyan province, the scheme largely reflects the faunal succession in the European faunal province with its endemic sonneratiinid and hoplitinid faunal elements. Workers in the Tethyan province, stretching from South America in the west to Australia in the east, including southern Africa, Madagascar and India, face problems in the correlation of their successions with this so-called ‘standard’ scheme. There are other problems in that the succession of hoplitinid ammonites used in the biostratigraphy of European Albian sediments allows a far more detailed zonation to be made than in the case of some of the longer time-ranging Tethyan forms. This...

Adaptations to hard substrates in Pennsylvanian productides (Brachiopoda) from the Cantabrian mountains (North-West Spain)
Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Martínez Chacón, M.L.; Winkler Prins, C.P.
The Pennsylvanian deposits with carbonate platforms and reef structures from the Cantabrian Mountains are briefly described. The main portion of this paper is dedicated to the discussion of the adaptations of the Productidina from these Pennsylvanian formations of the Cantabrian Mountains to their life on hard substrates, comparing them with similar forms found elsewhere, notably in the Mississippian of northwest Europe and the Permian of Texas. In the systematic part, an indeterminate Plicatiferini is described as well as a new genus, Bruntonoconcha, and the new species Limbifera bruntoni, Parmephrix candemuelensis and Bruntonoconcha celadensis.

Cricetidae (Rodentia) from the Neogene of Gargano (Prov. of Foggia, Italy)
Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Freudenthal, M.
Hattomys, a new genus of Cricetidae, is described and three new species H. beetsi, H. nazarii and H. gargantua are attributed to it. Hattomys are very large cricetids, and the evolution of the genus is characterized by a considerable increase in size, and an increasing predominance of ridges over cusps. The supposedly oldest Gargano localities yielded, apart from the lineage H. beetsi-nazarii-gargantua, some scarce material of three other hamster species: a Megacricetodon, a Cricetulodon and a Cricetus. Comparison with the Spanish sequences of rodent faunas shows that the Gargano faunas probably are of late Turolian age, equivalent of the Messinian.

A new Late Ordovician erratic anthaspidellid sponge (Porifera) originating from Baltica
Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Rhebergen, F.
The new anthaspidellid taxon Brevaspidella dispersa is erected for specimens recovered from the Late Ordovician sponge assemblages of the island of Gotland, Sweden and the Dutch-German border region. In the latter area, they are collected from Early Pleistocene fluvial deposits of the Baltic River System, whereas those from Gotland are part of Late Pleistocene glacial or fluvio-glacial deposits. The provenance of both assemblages is uncertain, but they probably originated from an Ordovician basin in the northern Baltic Sea or the Bothnian Gulf, west of Finland. As yet, Brevaspidella dispersa gen. et sp. nov. is restricted to the Gotland-German-Dutch sponge association and has not been found in the assemblage of nearly-coeval ‘lavender-blue cherts’ and...

A remarkable new Middle Sandbian (Ordovician) hexactinellid sponge in Baltic erratics
Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Botting, J.P.; Rhebergen, F.
A new species of complex hexactinellid sponge, Haljalaspongia inaudita, is described from fluvially transported blocks found in northwestern Germany, near the Dutch border, but which probably originated from the eastern Baltic region. The heavily folded wall is composed of multiple spicule layers, including dermal and gastral layers of acanthohexactines, and a central layer of sub-parallel monaxons. The monaxial layer is lined on one side by a reticulate array of smooth monaxons. The sponge is difficult to assign to any known fossil or recent group, but shares some features with the dictyospongioid family Docodermatidae.

Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Janssen, A.W.
All Tertiary euthecosomatous gastropods from the Australian continent known to the author are described. The species introduced by Ralph Tate (1887) are revised. Altogether 18 species are discussed. A new genus, Spoelia, and five new species, viz. Limacina curryi, L. lunata, L. tatei, Spoelia torquayensis and Vaginella victoriae, are introduced. Potential tools in the Australian pteropod fauna for a future biostratigraphical zonation and for long distance correlations are indicated. In an annex Vaginella sannicola sp. nov. is introduced for specimens from the Miocene of Gargano, Italy, which were incorrectly identified as V. eligmostoma Tate by d'Alessandro &amp; Robba, 1980.

Pleistocene Rhinocerotidae of W. Europe with reference to the recent two-horned species of Africa and S.E. Asia
Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Loose, H.
Palaeontology is too often odontology of necessity, the dentition being the most resistant part of the skeleton. When, as in the genus Dicerorhinus, the dentition can be a source of mistaken identity, we must look for species deter- mination based on complete skulls as referents. This leads to problems of ecology when seen in combination with the fluctuating Pleistocene vegetation belts. Some recent species are included to show similarities and dissimilarities within the group.

Autores: Veldmeijer, A.J.
A new species of pterosaur, Coloborhynchus spielbergi sp. nov. (Pterodactyloidea), from the Romualdo Member (Albian) of the Santana Formation is described. The type consists of the skull, mandible and many of the post-cranial bones. The specimen displays a high degree of co-ossification indicating that the animal was an adult and likely quite old when it died. The wingspan is reconstructed at nearly 6 m. Among the characteristic features are a large anteriorly positioned premaxillary sagittal crest and a smaller, also anteriorly positioned dentary sagittal crest, a flat anterior aspect of the skull from which two teeth project and a ventrally fused pelvis. Comments on Brazilian pterosaurs are made in connection with the classificiation of the Leiden...

Despite the considerable differences in faunas from three widely separated areas in the Early Cretaceous world (Argentina, the Mediterranean area and NW Europe) eight genera are common to all three: Valanginites, Olcostephanus, Karakaschiceras, Neohoploceras, Neocomites, Oosterella, Spitidiscus, and Crioceratites. Across two well-marked intervals (mid Valanginian and mid Hauterivian) the faunas are sufficiently close to allow correlation across the whole area. These represent intervals of global sealevel rise.

The only outcrop of the Cenomanian in The Netherlands is found in the eastern part of the country, near the town of Winterswijk. Here, in the bed of a brook, the Oossinkbeek, white chalks are exposed. Not far from this locality, just a few hundred metres to the NE, the only exposure of the Albian in The Netherlands is found as well, represented here mainly by greensands and greyish siltstones. Samples from both localities were examined for their microfaunal content (ostracods and foraminifera). In addition, samples from a few wells in the surrounding area were included in the study. The recovered ostracod faunas are described in this paper. They prove that, with the exception of the top layers exposed in the Oossinkbeek, the chalks of Kotten are primarily...

A detailed description of Deinogalerix is provided. In addition to the type species, four new species are distinguished: D. freudenthali, D. minor, D. brevirostris, and D. intermedius. There were two lineages, which differed in size. Deinogalerix was not directly derived from any of the Galericinae known from Europe but was probably an immigrant from Asia. It is interpreted as a predator which captured prey by a snapping action of the jaws.

This raises the question whether these two attributes are related and, if so, how. To locally build high species richness in a region, the balance between speciation/immigration and extinction/exturpation should be positive over at least part of its geologic history.

Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Freudenthal, M.
The rodent fauna of the locality Olalla 4A is composed of Theridomorpha, Cricetidae, Gliridae, and Sciuridae. A new genus of Cricetidae is described: Atavocricetodon, with three new species: Atavocricetodon atavoides sp. nov., A. nanoides sp. nov., and A. minusculus sp. nov. Two new species of Gliridae are described: Gliravus olallensis sp. nov. and Bransatoglis parvus sp. nov. Comparison with Montalban led to the description of yet another new species from that locality: A. hugueneyae. Discussion of the Olalla fauna shows that it must be younger than the 'Grande Coupure' and older than the classical locality of Montalbán, in other words Early Oligocene.

Mollusca from Preangerian deposits of Mandul Island, northeastern Kalimantan Timur (East Borneo)
Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Beets, C.
The present paper gives the result of work on a collection of molluscs which was made in 1916 by W. H. van Hoist Pellekaan on behalf of the Bataafsche Petroleum Maatschappij, now Shell Internationale Petroleum Maatschappij. A preliminary examination of the fossils was made by K. Martin, also in 1916, his conclusion, based on 22 species, being that their age was either 'uppermost Old Miocene' (i.e., Njalindung) or 'Upper Miocene'. According to modern usage, this would imply a dating of the fauna as Preangerian. A total of 42 species, including a few new ones, has now been more fully examined. It appears that their combined geologic ranges point unwaveringly to a Preangerian age, thus confirming Martin's preliminary verdict. As is by no means exceptional...

L'ichthyofaune tiglienne de Tegelen (Pays-Bas) : signification paléoécologique et paléoclimatique = Tiglian fish fauna of Tegelen, Netherlands : paleoecological and paleoclimatological interpretation
Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Gaudant, J.
The revision of the fish fauna from the Tiglian of Tegelen (The Netherlands) allows the improvement of our knowledge of this fossilbearing locality. Eleven genera of freshwater fishes have been recognized. Their association enables one to define the deposition conditions under which the clayey sands were deposited in the upper part of the Tiglian Stage.

The nature of the fossil record of Neogene insectivores
Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Hoek Ostende, L.W. van den; Reumer, J.W.F.; Doukas, C.S.
The Working-group on Insectivores from the Neogene of Eurasia (WINE) recently published an overview of the fossil record of insectivores from various European countries. The data thus gathered gives a good impression of the Neogene fossil record of this group. Although most localities are known from Spain, the Central European record has been studied in more detail. The lowermost and late Miocene are as yet relatively poorly documented, particularly in Central Europe. Throughout the Neogene the Central European record is geographically biased, most of our knowledge for a particular timeframe coming from one particular area. Overall the documentation of the fossil record appears to be adequate. Countries for which the fossil record has not been recorded in...

[Proceedings of the symposium 'Molluscan Palaeontology' : 11th International Malacological Congress, Siena (Italy) 30th August - 5th September 1992 / A.W. Janssen and R. Janssen (editors)]: Early ontogenetic shells of Recent and fossil Scaphopoda
Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Engeser, T.S.; Riedel, F.; Blandel, K.
The formation of the early ontogenetic shell of Scaphopoda is reviewed. In the few known cases the embryos hatch in the gastrula stage and rapidly develop into a lecithotrophic Trochophora-like larva. Our material indicates that there might be a planktotrophic larva in some species. The clasp-like shell is formed in the larval stage (e.g. Antalis tarentina Lamarck, 1818). It later fuses into a tube and mineralises during metamorphosis. Immediately after the metamorphosis the shell increases at the anterior end (early teleoconch) and posterior end (fumarium). During further growth, the fumarium, the larval shell and finally parts of the juvenile shell are gradually resorbed. We describe several specimens with preserved protoconchs from different...

On some fossil fish remains from Java
Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Koumans, F.P.
During his paleontological searches in Java, the late Prof. Eug. Dubois collected a number of fossil fish remains. His searches were instituted mainly in pleistocene deposits, and as far as I am aware these fish remains were the first of their kind to be collected in Java in strata of that age. This, and the fact that Dubois (1907, 1908) referred to these fish in two preliminary papers, gives this collection additional interest. In the first of his preliminary papers, Dubois (1907, p. 455) mentions the following fish: Anabas microcephalus, Clarias magur, Ophiocephalus, Carcharias gangeticus. In the second paper, Dubois (1908, p. 1239) mentions that at least seven species of freshwater fish are represented in his collection, viz., Anabas microcephalus,...

Mytilus antiquorum J. Sowerby, 1821 and other Pliocene mussels (Mollusca, Bivalvia) from the Southern North Sea Basin
Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Vervoenen, M.; Wesselingh, F.P.; Nieulande, F.A.D. van.
Mytilus antiquorum J. Sowerby, 1821, is recorded from the Coralline Crag Formation of East Anglia (UK) and the Lillo Formation (Oorderen, Kruisschans and Merksem members) of the Antwerp area (Belgium). The species is diagnosed on the basis of newly collected material and differentiated from modern European mussel species. The presence of M. antiquorum in the southern North Sea Basin is restricted to the Middle (Piacenzian) and early Late Pliocene (Gelasian). A possible occurrence of the species in the latest Pliocene of northern Greenland is discussed. A second Middle- Late Pliocene North Sea Basin species, tentatively referred to as M. edulis forma giganteus Wood, 1874, is diagnosed and discussed. The systematic status of this species remains unsolved. In...

Autores: Reumer, J.W.F.
Plio-Pleistocene Soricidae have been studied from Tegelen (The Netherlands) and from seven Hungarian localities: Osztramos 1, 3, 7, 9, 13, Csarnóta 2, and Villány 3. The subdivision of the subfamily Soricinae into tribes is revised. Of the three tribes recognized by Repenning (1967), two have been retained, viz. the Soricini Fischer von Waldheim, 1817 and the Blarinini Kretzoi, 1965. The third tribe (Neomyini Repenning, 1967) is split into four new (or resurrected) tribes: Soriculini Kretzoi, 1965 (this name having preference over Neomyini Repenning, 1967); Beremendiini new tribe, Amblycoptini Kormos, 1926, and Notiosoricini new tribe.

Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Kakabadze, M.V.; Hoedemaeker, P.J.; Bogdanova, T.N.; Sharikadze, M.Z.
On the basis of new and published palaeontological and stratigraphical data, the qualitative and quantitative variations in the Barremian-early Albian ammonite fauna of Colombia have been documented and analyzed. The position adopted here is that in the early Barremian the Andean Province became replaced by the Caribbean Subprovince in Colombia. The Caribbean Subprovince became separated as an independent unit from the Andean Province on the generic level (Buergliceras, Pedioceras), but especially on the species level. In the middle/upper Aptian many new endemic genera and subgenera appeared; Juandurhamiceras, Neodeshayesites, Laqueoceras, Zambranoites, Riedelites and Pseudoptychoceras. Besides, many endemic middle Aptian species of other, non-endemic...

Autores: Povel, G.D.E.
The data set of the so-called main branch of Miocene Gyraulus, collected and measured by Mensink, has been re-examined by means of multivariate methods. New information was obtained by presenting the percentage of specimens which have a keel on the second or third whorl in a bivariate way. In an earlier multivariate analysis Lindenberg &amp; Mensink used only six characters, in the present paper an additional two characters have been used. However, as the number of characters is small, some of them have not been adequately measured, and because the identification of part of the specimens was questionable, the results may still be insufficient.

Revision of the subfamily Bransatoglirinae (Gliridae, Rodentia, Mammalia)
Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Freudenthal, M.; Martín-Suárez, E.
Daams &amp; de Bruijn created the subfamily Bransatoglirinae for the genus Bransatoglis Hugueney, and considered Paraglis Baudelot and Oligodyromys Bahlo to be synonyms of Bransatoglis. Twenty two valid species have been classified as Bransatoglis or one of its supposed synonyms, ranging in age from Late Eocene (MP17) to Middle Miocene (MN6) and varying in size from very small to very large. Apparently, Bransatoglis has become a ‘wastebasket’ and it is impossible to formulate a diagnosis that covers all these species. In this paper the genera Paraglis and Oligodyromys are restored, new diagnoses are given and the genus Microdyromys is transferred from the Dryomyinae to the Bransatoglirinae. A new species of Oligodyromys, O. libanicus, is described from the...

Introduction The first fossil insectivore remain from Switzerland mentioned in the scientific literature, was probably a talpid humerus from the locality of Vermes 2. The specimen was found around 1850 by the Swiss geologist J.B. Greppin, who sent it to H. von Meyer in Frankfurt. This great palaeontologist made a drawing of the humerus and mentioned it in a communication to Professor Bronn (1853). H. von Meyer's drawing was published in 1887 (plate 4, fig. 14) by M. Schlosser, who provided it with the name "Talpa telluris Pomel". H. von Meyer also received two mandible fragments of an erinaceid from J.B. Greppin, also found in Vermes 2. He mistakenly identified them as "Didelphys (Peratherium) Blainvillei Chr.". Under this name these specimens were...

In this paper the Miocene to recent melongenid species of northwest Borneo are discussed. The recent fauna is poor with three genera represented by one species each. In the Miocene three (possibly four) genera occur with eight (possibly nine) species of which three are described as new species: Melongena murifactor, uniquely characterized by the formation of a septum walling off the adapical sector of the aperture; Pugilina erecta, characterized (along with its close Miocene relative from Java, P. ickei) by a free-edged, erect inner lip; Volema goliath, large for the genus with later whorls progressively covering the upper row of spines of earlier whorls. The apertural septum of M. murifactor is unique within Gastropoda, whereas the erect inner lip of P....

Provedor de dados: 16

An analysis of Alethopteris virginiana Fontaine &amp; White from the lower Dunkard in the Appalachians of North America shows that three different taxa are likely to be represented in the initial illustration. The specific epithet ‘virginiana’ ought to be restricted to a form comparable to Callipteridium costei (Zeiller) Wagner, whereas the two other taxa are referred to pecopterid ferns. A neotype is proposed for Callipteridium virginianum (Fontaine &amp; White) comb. nov. on the basis of topotypes. Zeiller’s illustration of ‘Alethopteris’ costei is reproduced for comparison. On the other hand, a full description and illustration are provided for Alethopteris leonensis Wagner, a species which had been identified previously with Alethopteris virginiana,...

The porcupine Hystrix suevica Schlosser, 1884 from the lower Turolian of Crevillente 2 (Spain)
Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Montoya, P.
The fossil record of the genus Hystrix is rather scarce, and little is known about its origin. Its presence in Crevillente 2, a well-dated Lower Turolian (MN11) Spanish locality, is an important fact because, from a stratigraphic point of view, it is one of the oldest references of this genus. The comparative study of the remains from Crevillente 2 reveals the presence of a small species, Hystrix suevica, which lived in Europe from Middle Aragonian to Early Turolian time. In most recent revisions of the genus Hystrix, this species has not been taken into account. H. suevica shows undeniable morphological affinities with H. primigenia. The latter was a large-sized Hystrix, which spread over Europe from Middle Turolian to Late Pliocene time, reaching Africa...

Palaeobiogeographical and palaeobiological aspects of mid- and Late Cretaceous ammonite evolution and bio-events in the Russian Pacific
Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Jagt-Yazykova, E.A.
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,...

Size variation of fossil rodent populations
Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Freudenthal, M.; Cuenca Bescos, G.
Pearson's coefficient of variation is in general not applicable in palaeontology, due to the heterogeneity of samples. The heterogeneity may be due to the mixing of two species, mixture of material from various biotopes, or from a relatively large time span. A new coefficient of variation is proposed, based on the range of the sample. This coefficient may be used to estimate the degree of variation of a sample, and to decide whether it is homogeneous. Its application is tested empirically on a large number of samples of cricetid molars from the European Tertiary.

INTRODUCTION The present paper contains notes on some recent cats in the collections of the Rijksmuseum van Natuurlijke Historie, Leiden, as well as descriptions of the fossil Felidae in the "Collectie Dubois", Leiden, which its Director Prof. Dubois entrusted to me. The fossils were collected in Java 1) by Prof. Eug. Dubois during his searches for remains of the precursor of man, and with the intention to gather data about the geological age and ecology of this precursor (cf. Dubois, 1888). The age of the deposits from which the fossil cats were collected, has been much discussed. A review of the literature (up to 1931) on this subject has been given by Van Es (1931), who concludes that the Trinilfauna must be referred to the lower plistocene age, while...

Insectivore faunas from the Lower Miocene of Anatolia - Part 8: Stratigraphy, palaeoecology, palaeobiogeography
Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Hoek Ostende, L.W. van den.
This article deals with biostratigraphy, palaeoecology and biogeography of the Late Oligocene/Early Miocene insectivore faunas from Anatolia. With the exception of the much younger fauna from Keseköy, all faunas contain the same insectivore species. Keseköy contains the same genera, but mostly different species. It has been suggested that insectivores are of limited stratigraphical use due to the longevity of the taxa. This seems to hold true for the Early Miocene faunas from Anatolia. Changes in the composition of the insectivore faunas are used to infer environmental changes. A rise in the abundance of insectivores near the MP 30/MN 1 transition is believed to be indicative of a climatic amelioration. The dominance of Theratiskos in Harami and Keseköy...

Neogene vertebrates from the Gargano Peninsula, Italy
Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Freudenthal, M.
Fissure-fillings in Mesozoic limestones in the Gargano Peninsula yield rich collections of fossil vertebrates, which are characterized by gigantism and aberrant morphology. Their age is considered to be Vallesian or Turolian. The special features of the fauna are probably due to isolation on an island. The vertebrate bearing fissure deposits are covered by a calcarenite which is dated as probably Serravallian on the basis of Foraminifera. This would mean that the continental Turolian may be older than the marine Serravallian, a conclusion which is in contrast with the general idea on the correlation of marine and continental Miocene and Pliocene in Europe.

Sabellids and serpulids (Polychaeta sedentaria) from the type Maastrichtian, the Netherlands and Belgium
Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Jäger, M.
Calcareous tubes of the sabellid genus Glomerula and of the family Serpulidae (subfamilies Serpulinae and Spirorbinae) rank amongst the commoner, highly diverse biota of the type Maastrichtian strata. These cover the sequence from the upper Beutenaken Member (Gulpen Formation) up to and including the Meerssen Member (Maastricht Formation). Of the 40+ taxa of calcareous worm tubes found in this interval, the commonest ones are described and illustrated in the present paper, which also comprises a revision of data published in 2005.

Janssen (editors)]: Studies on the side-branch planorbids (Mollusca, Gastropoda) of the Miocene crater lake of Steinheim am Albuch (southern Germany)
Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Nützel, A.; Bandel, K.
Planorbid shells are abundant in the sediments of the fresh water lake of Steinheim am Albuch throughout its depositional history. They were studied repeatedly after Hilgendorf's (1867) initial work. He had all different morphs that appeared during the long lasting lake history related to a single founder species that developed into several lineages, one of which was designated as 'main-branch' with large conspicuous morphs. Most subsequent studies are concerned with that branch. Based on new material and aided by SEM studies of the protoconchs, the small side-branch morphs have been restudied and evolutionary lineages are reconstructed. As a result the phylogenetic lineages of planorbids from lake Steinheim can be considered to have evolved from a single...

Autores: Harper, D.A.T.; Liljeroth, M.; Rasmussen, C.M.Ø.
Analyses confirm the roles of the oceanic provinces as both cradles and museums of evolution (Harper &amp; Mac Niocaill, 2002), with reference to the development of the global brachiopod fauna through the Floian-Sandbian (mid Early – early Late Ordovician) interval. Moreover, groups of taxa with particularly widespread distributions during the Dapingian-Darriwilian were possible island hoppers, taking advantage of the spectrum of disparate terranes generated by the magmatic and tectonic activity of the period.

A review of the fossil and subfossil avian record kept in Bulgaria is presented. The only collection of fossil birds in Bulgaria was established in the 1980s. 99.6% originates from 98 localities throughout Bulgaria. Foreign fossils originate from Azerbaijan, Greece, Hungary, Namibia and New Zealand. Bulgarian avian fossil and subfossil records in collections outside the country are found in museums in France, Germany, Poland and the United Kingdom. In August 2003 the collection numbered 13,848 bones, two casts and one eggshell representing 349 taxa. Taxonomic composition includes: 22 fossil species, one fossil subspecies, one subfossil species, one subfossil subspecies and at least 160 recent species. This collection became the largest avian...

The fossil hippopotamus from Hopefield, South Africa
Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Hooijer, D.A.; Singer, R.
INTRODUCTION The fossil remains of Hippopotamus from the Pleistocene "Elandsfontein" site near Hopefield, Cape Province, have already been briefly described by Singer and Keen (1955), who found that the material available at the time was not different from the living Hippopotamus amphibius L. However, it seems worthwhile to review their status since the Hippopotamus material has been considerably increased as a result of recent collecting trips to the site. Not only are there now cranial remains, but also postcranial material, notably carpals, tarsals and metapodials. The purpose of the present note is to place on record all the material at present in the Hopefield collection pertaining to the species in question. The specimens, originally housed in the...

Seven species of crab and an indeterminate stomatopod are recorded from the Pleistocene Beaumont Formation of Galveston Island, Texas. Of these, Hepatus pauli sp. nov., plus the extant Persephona aquilonaris and Callinectes danae are recorded as fossils for the first time, whereas the modern Callinectes sapidus and Menippe mercinaria had already been recorded from Miocene and/or Pleistocene strata in the Caribbean. A new description is given for Herbstia milnei, founded on better-preserved specimens, and the species is transferred to the genus Libinia. An unnamed species is tentatively placed in the extant Indo-Pacific genus Dromidiopsis; likewise unnamed, a fragmentary abdomen is assigned to the Stomatopoda.

Despite the considerable differences in faunas from three widely separated areas in the Early Cretaceous world (Argentina, the Mediterranean area and NW Europe) eight genera are common to all three: Valanginites, Olcostephanus, Karakaschiceras, Neohoploceras, Neocomites, Oosterella, Spitidiscus, and Crioceratites. Across two well-marked intervals (mid Valanginian and mid Hauterivian) the faunas are sufficiently close to allow correlation across the whole area. These represent intervals of global sealevel rise.

The recurrence of Vogelgnathus campbelli-dominated conodont faunas in the Viséan and early Namurian of the Cantabrian Mts (Spain): a reflection of sea-level fluctuations?
Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Boogaard, M. van den.
The conodont faunas from the Viséan and lower Namurian limestone succession in the Cantabrian Mts are mainly characterised by abundant Gnathodus spp. and minor amounts of Lochriea spp. However, Gnathodus and Lochriea are four times largely or almost completely replaced by Vogelgnathus campbelli, every time during a relatively short interval. Apart from being present in moderate quantities in basal Viséan faunas, V. campbelli is lacking in most of the Gnathodus-dominaled faunas from the Cantabrian Mts. These invasions by V. campbelli are supposed to have occurred during a rise of sea level enabling this - presumably more offshore - species to enter the region while at the same time the habitat of Gnathodus c.s. was partly or almost completely drowned.

On the basis of several carapaces, a new species of xanthid crab, Etisus evamuellerae, is described from the Middle Miocene of the Vienna (Austria) and Great Hungarian basins. It differs from the coeval xanthids, Xantho moldavicus and Pilodius vulgaris, in having a distinctly protruding front and comparatively longer carapace. Contrary to those two species, the new one makes up for just a small percentage in the decapod crustacean assemblages studied.

During a reconnaissance of the Tertiary formations in the western Vogelkop in 1929/1930 for the Bataafsche Petroleum Maatschappij, The Hague, the geologists J.P. Roothaan and J.B. Woolley collected a number of fossil molluscs in the outcrop area of the Klasaman Formation, later to be dated as 'Late Miocene and Plio-Pleistocene' on the basis of foraminiferal studies carried out in the course of a 25 years' search for oil (1935-1960), by the Nederlandsche Nieuw Guinea Petroleum Maatschappij. In 1930, Dr K. Martin made a preliminary examination of the fossils, which in recent years were restudied by the present writer, the number of species identified thereby being raised from 16 to 35. Unfortunately, an attempt to determine the ages of at least the two...

[The fossil record of the Eurasian Neogene insectivores (Erinaceomorpha, Soricomorpha, Mammalia) : Part I / L.W. van den Hoek Ostende, C.S. Doukas and J.W.F. Reumer (editors)]: Austria
Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Ziegler, R.; Daxner-Höck, G.
Introduction Small mammals, and especially insectivores, long have been the stepchildren in Austrian palaeontology, although Hofmann described an insectivore species, Plesiosorex styriacus, from two Styrian sites as early as 1892. In 1893 the same author described and figured an erinaceid tooth, now known as Lantanotherium sp., from Göriach in Styria. Thenius (1949) presented a revision of the insectivores of the Styrian Tertiary, that is the Miocene. No insectivores were known from other parts of Austria at that time, partly because research was centred in Vienna and Graz; many more fossil sites are known from the eastern parts of Austria, which, however, mainly yielded large mammals. Systematic searches for small mammals by means of screen washing...

Kettneraspis, Radiaspis and Ceratarges (Trilobita) from the Middle Devonian of the Rochefort area (Ardennes, Belgium)
Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Viersen, A.P. van.
The Middle Eifelian trilobite fauna of the Belgian Ardennes shows close affinities with that of the German Eifel. Two trilobite taxa are recorded from Middle Eifelian strata near the town of Jemelle, on the southern border of the Dinant Synclinorium, Belgium. Kettneraspis bayarti sp. nov. is closely related to Kettneraspis elliptica (Burmeister) from the Middle Eifelian of the Rhenish Slate Mountains. Ceratarges cf. armatus (Goldfuss) is also described on the basis of a single pygidium. The odontopleurid Charybdaspis Basse is considered a junior subjective synonym of Radiaspis Richter &amp; Richter. The lichid Rhenarges Basse is briefly discussed and regarded as a junior subjective synonym of Akantharges Phleger.

Microdyromys (Gliridae, Rodentia, Mammalia) from the Early Oligocene of Montalbán (Prov. Teruel, Spain)
Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Freudenthal, M.; Martín-Suárez, E.
A new species of Microdyromys, M. puntarronensis, is described from the Early Oligocene locality Montalbán 8 (Teruel, Spain). It is compared with the other Early Oligocene species of the genus, M. misonnei. The latter is known from Hoogbutsel (Belgium) and Montalbán 1D. Montalbán 8 is intermediate in age between Hoogbutsel and Montalbán 1D, and the dental pattern of its Microdyromys is more advanced than it is in Montalbán 1D. This leads to the conclusion that two lineages of Microdyromys existed in the Early Oligocene. An attempt is made to follow these lineages throughout the Late Oligocene and the Miocene.

Pteropods (Mollusca, Euthecosomata) from the Early Eocene of Rotterdam (The Netherlands)
Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Janssen, A.W.
A borehole was drilled at Rotterdam in 1955 as a demonstration during the E55 exhibition. Holoplanktonic molluscs (pteropods) were found to be present in the interval 504.5-655.0 m below rotary table (= RT). The upper sample of Middle Eocene (Lutetian) age yielded just a few unidentifiable limacinids. The section between 507.5-607.0 m, of Early Eocene (Ypresian) age, yielded poorly preserved pteropods and demonstrated that the complete interval belongs to pteropod zone 9. Apart from the most abundant species, Camptoceratops priscus, which is the index taxon of pteropod zone 9, the section yielded Heliconoides mercinensis and Limacina taylori, which are known to accompany the index species. Two further limacinid species are described as new to science, viz....

Holoplanktonic Mollusca (Gastropoda: Pterotracheoidea, Janthinoidea, Thecosomata and Gymnosomata) from the Pliocene of Pangasinan (Luzon, Philippines)
Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Janssen, A.W.
Fifteen samples taken from interbedded sandstone, siltstone and claystone of Pliocene age, underlying the Bolinao Limestone, at the localities Anda, Roxas and Tiep (Pangasinan, Luzon, Philippines), were analysed for holoplanktonic gastropods; they have yielded 50 species (16 Heteropoda, one Janthinidae, and 33 Pteropoda, the latter consisting of 30 Euthecosomata, two Pseudothecosomata and one Gymnosomata). Faunal diversity between the localities sampled is restricted and explained by differences in sample size and/or preservation. The time interval represented by all samples taken together is postulated to have been brief. Fifteen new taxa (= 30% of the total number of encountered holoplanktonic molluscan species) are erected; Atlanta lingayanensis sp....

Lower Carboniferous marine bivalves from the Cantabrian Mountains (Spain)
Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Amler, M.R.W.; Winkler Prins, C.F.
The Lower Carboniferous bivalves of the Vegamián and Genicera formations are described, followed by a brief discussion on palaeoenvironmental and palaeogeographical aspects. The black shales of the Vegamián Fm. (Tournaisian) yield a peculiar association of euchondriid taxa (Euchondria wagneri sp. nov., Eu. cf. losseni, Eu. cf. bilstonensis, and euchondriids under open nomenclature) and Chaenocardia? carbonifera. This association displays Central-European Kulm-type character, but other typical taxa from the German Kulm are missing in this environment, especially the posidoniids, actinopteriids and pterinopectinids. The light coloured sediments of the Genicera (or Alba) Fm. yield bivalves in slightly greater diversity which include rare palaeotaxodonts,...

Late Cretaceous-Early Palaeogene echinoderms and the K/T boundary in the southeast Netherlands and northeast Belgium — Part 6: Conclusions
Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Jagt, J.W.M.
The palaeobiology of echinoderms occurring in the Meerssen and Geulhem members is discussed and changes in diversity across the K/T boundary are documented. Using literature data on the ecology of extant faunas, the various echinoderm groups are considered. Naturally, such data can only be applied with due caution to fossil forms, whose skeletal morphology is often incompletely known. This holds especially true for asteroids, ophiuroids, and crinoids, which, upon death, rapidly disintegrate into jumbles of dissociated ossicles. Bioturbation, scavenging, and current winnowing all contribute to blurring the picture still further. However, data on extant forms do allow a preliminary subdivision of fossil species into various ecological groups, which are...

Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Vasicek, Z.
New records of heteromorph ammonites from the Silesian Unit of the Outer Western Carpathians (Czech Republic) are represented especially by small pyrite steinkerns with suture lines preserved. A lesser proportion of them belongs to representatives of the subfamily Bochianitidae from the Valanginian. Among the most interesting is Baculina rouyana dOrbigny. Another group consists primarily of lower Barremian Leptoceratoidinae. In addition to commonly occurring species of Hamulinites and Leptoceratoides, an Eoheteroceras assemblage is often found, represented partially by new elements. Heteromorphs from the Northern Calcareous Alps (Austria) come from marly Hauterivian limestones. Ptychoceras meyrati is present through most of the Hauterivian. Well-dated...

Estimating body mass of fossil rodents
Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Freudenthal, M.; Martín-Suárez, E.
Reconstructing the body mass of a fossil animal is an essential step toward understanding its palaeoecological role. Length × width (L×W) of the first lower molar (m1) is frequently used as a proxy for body mass in fossil mammals. However, among rodents, Muroidea have no premolar and an elongated m1, whereas other groups have a premolar and a m1 that is not elongated. This leads to an overestimation of body mass in muroids and/or an underestimation in other rodents. To solve this problem we assembled data of upper and lower tooth row length and body mass in extant rodents, and calculated regression equations for all rodents, rodents with premolars, rodents without premolars and for taxonomic groups at superfamily or family level. Data for complete tooth...

A remarkable Ordovician ostracod fauna from Orphan Knoll, Labrador Sea
Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Becker, G.; Adamczak, F.J.
This paper deals with silicified ostracods obtained from material dredged from Orphan Knoll, a submerged continental remnant in the Labrador Sea. Thirteen determinable species, belonging to the suborders Palaeoecopina and Podocopina, had been found in the material. Two species are new, the rest are left in open nomenclature. Among the smooth shelled podocopines, ancestral Pachydomellidae are of special interest, viz. Aboilia Becker &amp; Adamczak (type species A. blessi Becker &amp; Adamczak). The ostracod species are thought to indicate an age of Middle to Late Ordovician and include forms with both North American and North European affinities. It is believed that the collection of Ordovician ostracods is endemic at the species level and that they have...

Evolutionary ecology of the Pachydontinae (Bivalvia, Corbulidae) in the Pebas lake/wetland system (Miocene, western Amazonia)
Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Wesselingh, F.P.
Miocene deposits in western Amazonia and adjacent areas of South America harbour a diverse suite of endemic corbulid bivalves, commonly referred to as Pachydontinae, that show a wide variety of morphologies. Especially in the Miocene Pebas Formation (Peru, Colombia and Brazil), this group diversified spectacularly. Since these corbulids (a cosmopolitan marine and perimarine bivalve family) occur with freshwater taxa and yield isotope signals strongly indicative of freshwater settings, the success of this group in inland basins of Miocene northwestern South America is surprising. In this paper it is argued that a combination of adaptations to fluid bottom substrates, common dysoxia and high predation intensities explains their abundance, their morphological...

Attention is called to the fact that probably also the apparatus of Distomodus kentuckyensis Branson &amp; Branson, 1947 - as described by Cooper (1975) had a similar ontogeny and that...

Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Kelly, S.R.A.; Whitham, A.G.
Two deshayesitid ammonite assemblages are described from the Lower Cretaceous succession of the north coast of Hold with Hope, North-East Greenland, and their biostratigraphical significance is assessed. In the earlier assemblage Prodeshayesites cf. bodei and P. laeviusculus occur. The second assemblage contains Deshayesites boegvadi. The presence of P. cf. bodei suggests that the northwest European bodei Subzone of the fissicostatus Zone is represented in North-East Greenland. The occurrence of D. boegvadi, previously recorded only from Kuhn q, probably indicates the later part of the fissicostatus Zone, or the forbesi or deshayesi zones.

Fossil and recent shallow water corals from the Atlantic Islands off Western Africa CANCAP-contribution no. 56
Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Boekschoten, G.J.; Borel Best, M.
Miocene hermatypic corals are listed from Madeira and Porto Santo. Pleistocene and recent shallow water corals are described from the Cape Verde archipelago. The Miocene fauna was part of the Western Tethyan reef association, which went nearly completely extinct by the development of a cool water current in late Miocene times. The Cape Verde fauna immigrated from the Carribean, presumably by way of a compressed subtropical gyre during a mid Pleistocene glacial phase. The fauna was found in a beach terrace, formerly considered Tertiary, on the island of São Tiago. A lava flow directly above this deposit was radiometrically dated 700.000 ± 200.000 years B.P.

Autores: Vergoossen, J.M.J.
The microvertebrate faunas from ten small pieces of rock from the Öved Sandstone Formation at Klinta (1-10) yielded osteostracan, heterostracan, thelodont, and acanthodian remains, dated here as Whitcliffian. The most important age indicators are the heterostracan Archegonaspis and the thelodont zonal fossil Thelodus sculptilis. The latter taxon is also present in a small Whitcliffian fauna from the Öved Sandstone Formation at Rinnebäcks bro, together with other thelodont and acanthodian remains. From Rinnebäcks bro no previous records of Silurian fish fossils exist.

Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Hooijer, D.A.
Collections of fossil vertebrate remains from the Sangiran area in Java have recently been presented to the Rijksmuseum van Natuurlijke Historie by Mr. H. R. van Heekeren and by Mr. J. H. Houbolt. They form a most welcome addition to the Museum collection of fossil vertebrates made by Eugene Dubois in Java in the 189o's; Sangiran is a site known to but not collected at by Dubois. We are grateful to Messrs. Van Heekeren and Houbolt for their generous gift to the Museum; the more important specimens in the Sangiran collection will be the subject of the present note. The Sangiran dome (for the geology of the area see Van Es, 1931: 55-68, and Von Koenigswald, 1940: 26-39), situated approximately 12 km north of Solo (Soerakarta) between the Kali Brangkal and...

Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Hugueney, M.
A new species of Theridomys, T. truci, is described. It occurs in a stratigraphic succession at Saint Martin de Castillon (Vaucluse, France) approximately at the boundary between Lower and Upper Oligocene. Its characteristics are: small size; moderate hypsodonty; thin and regular enamel borders; flat occlusal surfaces; wide and short synclines and synclinids; first syncline of the upper molars of the same size as the second; the first synclinid begins its development in the lower molars and the fourth syncline in the upper molars; the external tubercles of the upper molars are fused, forming a labial wall. The phyletic relationships of T. truci are discussed and a new hypothesis on the evolution of the T. lembronicus lineage is proposed. Une nouvelle...

Erinaceidae and Talpidae (Erinaceomorpha, Soricomorpha, Mammalia) from the Lower Miocene of Merkur-Nord (Czech Republic, MN 3)
Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Hoek Ostende, L. van den; Fejfar, O.
The Czech locality of Merkur-Nord (MN 3) has yielded one species of erinaceid and five species of talpids. The hedgehogs are represented by a few fossils of Galerix only. The talpid assemblage is characterised by a dominance of Mygalea magna. The position of Mygalea within the Desmaninae, which previously had been open to some doubt, could be ascertained. The excellent preservation of the material, including post-cranial remains, allowed the association of humeri to all of the five talpid species. The position of Desmanella, represented by the new species D. gudrunae, as a uropsiline talpid is confirmed, as for the first time a Desmanella dentition could be associated with a uropsiline type of humerus. Overall, the talpid assemblage shows its greatest...

Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Petersen, K.S.
Environmental changes in the Holocene molluscan fauna are elucidated by the investigation of the Korupsø area in the central part of Djursland, Denmark, on macrofossils and 14C datings of shell material. The oldest recorded stratum is a lacustrine Boreal lime gyttja which in the Early Atlantic was covered by saltwater gyttja with a rich fauna of molluscs. The fauna is characterised by Ostrea edulis, Venerupis decussata, Macoma balthica, and Corbula gibba. Bittium reticulatum is only found in large quantities within this older part of the sequence up to the end of the Atlantic. The disappearance of Bittium reticulatum in the Subboreal is explained as having been caused by a change to a more brackish environment. This explanation is supported by the decline...

Note on Mollusca from the lower Mentawir Beds, Balikpapan Bay area, Kalimantan (East Borneo)
Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Beets, C.
The Mentawir Beds, so named by L. M. R. Rutten, comprise a succession of Neogene sediments outcropping in the Balikpapan Bay area and originally thought to be of Late Miocene age. Subsequently their lower part was correlated with the Lower Balikpapan Layers and classified as Tf2. The type locality in the Sungai Mentawir area visited by Rutten in 1911 yielded a few Larger Foraminifera and Mollusca. A re-examination of the latter and a revision of the overall data now suggest a Preangerian age, Tf3. Also, the age determination, Tf3, of a related fauna from the basal Menkrawit Beds of Mangkalihat Peninsula made in 1941 is reconsidered. No unquestionable new departure emerging, the writer adheres to a Preangerian age as originally based on the examination of...

Intraspecific and intrageneric variabilities and their implication for the systematics of Cretaceous heteromorph ammonites; a review
Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Kakabadze, M.V.
The variability in the dimensions of the shell, and some changes in suture line, sculpture, whorl section and mode of coiling in the late ontogenetic stages, have in some cases no taxonomic significance for the recognition of genera and higher taxa of Cretaceous heteromorph ammonites. In many cases, such phenomena are due to intraspecific variation or variation within a genus. The intrageneric variations of some Cretaceous heteromorphs are discussed in detail in the light of new, rich Colombian material. In relation to these problems in systematics, some questions on the systematics of the superfamily Ancyloceratoidea Gill are considered.

Preangerian (Miocene) Mollusca from the Lower Sangkulirang Marl Formation, Kari Orang, Kalimantan (East Borneo)
Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Beets , C.
In the early part of the century L.M.R. Rutten collected a number of molluscs at his locality number 141, in Lower Sangkulirang Marls, long considered as Early Miocene (Tf2), near Sungai Kari Orang and not far from Witkamp's locality Kari Orang. But for their geologic age, these faunas have very little in common. In the present paper some 20 molluscan species (among them very few bivalves) from loc. 141 are discussed, including 4 new ones (Polinices? (Conuber?) orangensis, Nihonia witkampi, Conus kutaiensis, and Laevicardium (Discors) rutteni), hence no more than 16 are used for age determination. Of these, 14 occur in Preangerian deposits. Equally close relationships appear to consist with the fauna of the Lower Gelingseh Beds and the classical Javanese...

Strata of latest Cretaceous (late Maastrichtian) and earliest Paleogene (early Paleocene) age in the (extended) type area of the Maastrichtian Stage are comparatively rich in decapod crustaceans. Particularly common are chelae of the callianassoid Mesostylus faujasi (Desmarest, 1822), followed by carapaces of various species of necrocarcinid and raninid, plus the ?longusorbiid Binkhorstia ubaghsii (van Binkhorst, 1857) and chelae of paguroids; other taxa are much rarer. Recently collected material, all stratigraphically well constrained, has enabled us to reinterpret, and reassign, a number of species. Specimens contained in old museum collections have proved indispensable in that respect. Undescribed taxa have also come to light; here a new dromioid,...

Long bone histology and microanatomy of Placodontia (Diapsida: Sauropterygia)
Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Klein, N.; Houssaye, A.; Neenan, J.M.; Scheyer, T.M.
Placodontia, an enigmatic group of durophagous and in part heavily armoured animals, were members of Sauropterygia, the most diverse and successful group of Mesozoic marine reptiles. Microanatomy and histology of long bones of several armoured and non-armoured Placodontia were studied, covering most of their taxonomic breadth, to elucidate the paleoecology, physiology, and lifestyle of its members. Results reveal an unexpected and not phylogenetically or stratigraphically related disparity of microanatomical and histological features for the group. The non-armoured Paraplacodus and the heavily armoured Psephoderma grew with lamellar-zonal bone tissue type, which is typical for modern sauropsids. In the former, the tissue is nearly avascular surrounding a...

An attempt was made to assemble what is known at present of Buccinulum in the Indo-Western Pacific Region, fossil and Recent, more scope being offered by the discovery of new Miocene fossils from Java and Sumatra, and the recognition of further fossil species from India and Burma. This induced comparisons with, and revisions of some of the fossil and living species occurring in adjacent zoogeographical provinces. The Recent distribution of the subgenus Euthria appears to be much more extensive than when recorded by Wenz (1938-1944), the minimum enlargement encompassing an area stretching from the eastern Indian Ocean to Japan, via the Philippines and Ryukyu Islands.

Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Rzebik-Kowalska, B.; Popov, V.V.
Introduction Research on Bulgarian fossil small mammals had a relatively late start and it was researchers from neighbouring countries who published the first few studies. The first fossil shrew, Crocidura sp., was mentioned by Jakubowski &amp; Kraszewski (1972). It was found in the southeastern part of Bulgaria at Sarafovo, a locality of probably Pliocene age. A decade later, Rzebik-Kowalska (1982) and Horáček (1982a, b) described shrews and moles from Late Pleistocene localities. Then, in 1984, one of us (VP) started to study fossil insectivores from his country. The majority of Bulgarian fossil insectivores are Pleistocene (Popov, 1988,1989,1994b, 2000) and are not further considered herein. Pliocene insectivores are known from three localities,...

When, in the fall of 1947, my predecessor, Dr. F. P. Koumans, suddenly withdrew from ichthyological research, some of the fossil fish-remains from Trinil, collected and partly examined by Prof. Dr. E. Dubois (1907; 1908), still remained to be investigated or re-examined. I gladly accepted the opportunity to complete the research on this interesting material. A considerable part of these fossil remains, labelled by Dr. Koumans (but not mentioned in his paper, 1948, p. 80) as "16 fragments of skullbones", which "probably belong to Ophicephalus spec." (no. 11640), still proved to be in a sufficient state of preservation to permit an accurate identification of the bones these fragments must represent, as well as of the kind of fish to which the greater part...

Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Janssen, N.M.M.
In the Río Argos sequence (Murcia, SE Spain) belemnites were collected in ammonite controlled Lower Cretaceous strata. The calibration towards ammonite biozones gives the opportunity to specify the biostratigraphical ranges of belemnites in the (western) Mediterranean. Emphasized are the Berriasian- Valanginian and Hauterivian-Barremian boundary intervals. Three new species and two possible new species are described under open nomenclature: Castellanibelus sp. A, Duvalia sp. A, Duvalia sp. B, Duvalia sp. indet. nov. ? and Duvalia aff. deeckei. A provisional framework for future detailed biostratigraphical zonation by means of belemnites is given for the western Tethyan Basin.

Pleistocene vertebrates from Celebes : V. Lower molars of Archididiskodon celebense Hooijer
Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Hooijer, D.A.
Since 1948 Mr. H. R. van Heekeren, then prehistorian to the Archaeological Survey of the Dutch East Indies, kept up an intermittent search for fossil teeth and bones that occur in association with Palaeolithic artifacts at Beru and Sompoh, near Tjabenge (Sopeng district), about 100 km Northeast of Macassar in Southwestern Celebes. These sites are now known to yield an interesting vertebrate fauna, presumably Pleistocene in age, the first found elements of which were described a few years ago (Hooijer, 1948, 1949). One of the most remarkable discoveries in the Tjabengè area made by Mr. Van Heekeren is a small elephantine that I have named Archidiskodon celebensis (Hooijer, 1949). It was based on an almost complete and unworn upper molar, and on a similar...

Among the fossil proboscidean remains collected by Mr. H.

They can be referred to the species of Archidiskodon of which I originally described two specimens of M2 or M3, some molar fragments, the distal end of an ulna, and the proximal end of a tibia (Hooijer, 1949), to which could later be added a fine M3, and an M1 or M2, both completely preserved (Hooijer, 1953a). Archidiskodon celebensis Hooijer is the smallest species of Archidiskodon known at present.

Late Cretaceous bourgueticrinid crinoids from southern Poland – preliminary observations
Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Jagt, J.W.M.; Salamon, M.A.
Dissociated skeletal elements of bourgueticrinid crinoids, comprising mostly columnals, radicular cirri, a few cups and some brachials, are recorded from Turonian-Maastrichtian strata of southern Poland (Miechów Trough, Kraków-Cze˛stochowa Upland, Holy Cross Mountains and Opole Trough). Published records of bourgueticrinids from Poland are surprisingly few; only specifically indeterminate columnals, radicular cirri and a sole proximale, plus a single cup of Bourgueticrinus utriculatus have been noted. The present material, although limited, clearly demonstrates that these crinoids must have been less rare than anticipated and are, in fact, distributed throughout the entire Upper Cretaceous sequence in this area. The majority of bourgueticrinids had an...

After a short introduction on the reef development during the Late Palaeozoic, the tectono-stratigraphic history of the Cantabrian Mountains (northern Spain) during the Carboniferous is discussed, with an emphasis on the tectonically active Pennsylvanian (i.e., Late Carboniferous). The reef-bearing Valdeteja, San Emiliano, and Cuera formations are briefly described, and their brachiopod faunas are discussed with special emphasis on adaptations to a reef environment. The brachiopod faunas are compared with similar faunas from carbonate-platform deposits with reef structures of Mississippian (i.e., Early Carboniferous) age from Northwest Europe (the British Isles in particular), with Pennsylvanian-Permian faunas from the Alps, Urals, Spitsbergen and Arctic...

Autores: Bloklander, A.; Brouwer, J.
I. INLEIDING Ten behoeve van de N.V. Stoomschelpenzuiger- en schelpkalkbranderij te Brielle werd gedurende vele jaren schelpenmateriaal opgezogen in de Westerschelde ter hoogte van Ellewoudsdijk door den schelpenzuiger ,,Marie", eigendom van genoemde maatschappij. Dit materiaal, hetwelk naast Mollusca ook resten van Bryozoa, Foraminifera, Selachii en Brachiopoda bevatte, werd in afwachting van de verwerking in de kalkbranderij opgeslagen op het terrein bij de kalkfabriek. Nadere bijzonderheden over het bedrijf zijn reeds gepubliceerd door Dr. C. O. van Regteren Altena (1938). Dank zij de welwillende medewerking van den Directeur, Ir. P. van der Wallen, zijn vele malacologen in de gelegenheid gesteld schelpenmateriaal te verzamelen op het terrein der...

[Proceedings of the 4th International Workshop of the Lower Cretaceous Cephalopod Team (IGCP-Project 362) / Peter F. Rawson and Philip J. Hoedemaeker (editors)]: Some new species of the subfamily 'Leptoceratoidinae' (Ancyloceratina, Ammonoidea) in uppermost Hauterivian and lower Barremian deposits from Rumania
Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Avram, E.
The Berriasian — lower Valanginian genus Leptoceras reappears in the lower Barremian sequences of Rumania, where it is represented by at least two species: L. brunneriforme sp. nov. and L. svinitense sp. nov. This record has led to a revision of the so far accepted taxonomic interpretation of the criomorph Barremian Leptoceratoidinae and of their relationship with the Berriasian-Valanginian Protancyloceratinae. In addition, a new species of the genus Hamulinites (H. nicklesi, from the uppermost Hauterivian) provides evidence that the genus Eoleptoceras Manolov should be considered valid.

Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Lewis, D.N.; Donovan, S.K.; Crabb, P.; Gladwell, D.J.
The Palaeozoic echinoderms of the British Isles are most diverse in the Silurian and Lower Carboniferous. This guide discusses and illustrates members of all major groups of echinoderms, apart from the crinoids, from the Silurian of these islands. Groups considered include the echinoids (five taxa), ophiuroids (ten taxa) and asteroids (thirteen taxa), and the extinct ophiocistioids (three species) and rhombiferan cystoids (nine species).

Cretaceous Bryozoa from the Campanian and Maastrichtian of the Atlantic and Gulf Coastal Plains, United States
Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Taylor, P.D.; McKinney, F.K.
The Late Cretaceous bryozoan fauna of North America has been severely neglected in the past. In this preliminary study based on museum material and a limited amount of fieldwork, we describe a total of 128 Campanian-Maastrichtian bryozoan species from Delaware, New Jersey, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee, Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana and Arkansas. Eighty-two of these species are new, as are five (Basslerinella, Pseudoallantopora, Kristerina, Turnerella and Peedeesella) of the 77 genera. One new family, Peedeesellidae, is proposed. Cheilostomes, with 94 species (73 per cent of the total), outnumber cyclostomes, with 34 species (27 percent), a pattern matching that seen elsewhere in the world in coeval deposits. There appear to be very...

Late Devonian (Frasnian) bivalves from the Nocedo Formation: the results of Wilhelm Kegel’s 1927 field trip to northern Spain
Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Amler, M.R.W.
During a field trip to the Peña-Corada Unit of the southernmost Esla region of the Cantabrian Mountains in 1927, the German stratigrapher Wilhelm Kegel sampled brachiopods and bivalves from a section in the Laoz valley near La Ercina. The stratigraphic position is believed to be part of the Nocedo Formation of Frasnian age. This fauna includes poorly preserved steinkerns of a near-shore bivalve fauna that was prepared for publication including labels and proposed names, but never published. The fauna represents only a very small and random part of the former community. But as information on Frasnian bivalves is scarce, the few specimens add important information on the distribution and palaeogeographic occurrence of near-shore, that is, Rhenish Facies...

The nature of aquatic landscapes in the Miocene of western Amazonia: an integrated palaeontological and geochemical approach
Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Wesselingh, F.P.; Kaandorp, R.J.G.; Vonhof, H.B.; Räsänen, M.E.; Renema, W.; Gingras, M.
The Miocene Pebas Formation from the section Santa Rosa de Pichana (Loreto, Peru) was investigated using a combination of analyses of sedimentary facies, molluscan communities and taphonomy, and stable isotopes of both entire shells and growth bands in bivalves. Three sequences, comprising a succession of transgressive, maximum flooding and regressive/prograding intervals, are documented. Molluscs are most common in the transgressive/highstand intervals and are almost absent in regressive/prograding intervals. The fauna is dominated by endemic Pebasian species, such as Pachydon and Dyris spp. The nature of the deposits as well as the availability of oxygen varied in a predictable way within each of the sequences and determined the nature of the...

Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Janssen, A.W.; Zorn, I.
In the early thirties the late Polish palaeontologist Wilhelm Krach started the publication of a long series of papers on the mollusc faunas and the biostratigraphy of the Tertiary deposits in Poland, predominantly focusing on the Miocene of the Carpathian Foredeep. In several of these papers holoplanktonic molluscs ('pteropods') are mentioned. Gradually Krach realised the potential value of these organisms in regional and interregional biostratigraphy, resulting in a special paper on the subject, published in 1981. In the present paper a substantial part of Krach's pteropod material, housed in the Institute of Geological Sciences at Kraków, is systematically revised and biostratigraphically interpreted according to modern standards and in accordance with...

Molluscs from the Miocene Pebas Formation of Peruvian and Colombian Amazonia
Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Wesselingh, F.P.; Anderson, L.C.; Kadolsky, D.
The mollusc fauna of the Miocene Pebas Formation of Peruvian and Colombian Amazonia contains at least 158 mollusc species, 73 of which are introduced as new; 13 are described in open nomenclature. Four genera are introduced (the cochliopid genera Feliconcha and Glabertryonia, and the corbulid genera Pachyrotunda and Concentricavalva) and a nomen novum is introduced for one genus (Longosoma). A neotype is designated for Liosoma glabra Conrad, 1874a. The Pebas fauna is taxonomically dominated by two families, viz. the Cochliopidae (86 species; 54%) and Corbulidae (23 species; 15%). The fauna can be characterised as aquatic (155 species; 98%), endemic (114 species; 72%) and extinct (only four species are extant). Many of the families represented by a few...

Autores: Ng, P.K.L.; Cranbrook, Earl of.
Crustacean subfossils from the Jambusan Caves in Bau (Sarawak), collected by the late A.H. Everett are assigned to two relatively large species of potamid freshwater crabs (Brachyura) that are still extant in the area, viz. Isolapotamon bauense Ng, 1987 and I. consobrinum (De Man, 1899). While I. bauense is known to occur naturally in the caves, I. consobrinum is a primarily riverine species. On the basis of the available archaeological evidence, the two species were probably collected for food by early human inhabitants of Sarawak. Characters that are useful to identify the chelae and fingers of Bornean freshwater crabs are also discussed.

The stratigraphical occurrence in the southern North Sea Basin of the marine bivalve genus Macoma is reviewed. New data concerning first and last appearances are presented. Especially the first appearance of Macoma balthica and the last appearances of M. obliqua and M. praetenuis are discussed. M. balthica appears in the late Middle Tiglian (Early Pleistocene). M. obliqua has been found in offshore deposits dating from the climatic optimum of the last interglacial, the Eemian. M. praetenuis occurs in deposits just underlying the Eemian deposits. The age of these underlying deposits is uncertain but may be Late Saalian/Early Eemian. Both latter species were previously considered to be extinct after the late Middle Tiglian.

Miocene long-lived lake Pebas as a stage of mollusc radiations, with implications for landscape evolution in western Amazonia
Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Wesselingh, F.P.
The Miocene Pebas system was a huge (&gt; 1 million km2) system of long-lived lakes and wetlands that occupied most of western Amazonia between c. 23 and 8 Ma. Remarkable endemic radiations of molluscs and ostracods occurred in the Pebas system. The continuity of many of the endemic lineages between c. 17 and 9 Ma shows that the system was never fully replaced by fluvial or marine settings. Many of the endemic invertebrate groups developed an unusual range of morphologies that reflect adaptation to specific ecological stresses provided by the Pebas system, such as chemical stress, common dysoxia and high predation pressure. Mollusc diversity increased especially during the Middle Miocene. The Pebas system provided pathways for mobile marine organisms to...

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.

Introduction Spain, with its many Cenozoic continental basins, has one of the finest fossil records of mammals in the world. The presence of nearly continuous sections with mammal localities make some of these basins ideal for defining mammalian continental stages, such as the Ramblian, Aragonian, Vallesian and Turolian. The first mention of fossils mammals in Spain, and one of the first scientific essays on fossil bones in the world, dates back to the beginning of the eighteenth century, when Benito Jerónimo Feijoo (1736) described the presence of bones near Concud in "El Barranco de las Calaveras" (the valley of the skulls). Feijoo ascribed the numerous bones to a battle in antiquity. More localities were discovered and classical localities like Los...

Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Conti, M.A.; Monari, S.; Oliviero, M.
Studies of Jurassic outcrops from Veneto, Central Italy and Sicily improved our knowledge on the gastropods of these areas, characterised by the presence, aside of archaic forms, of some modern ones. Noteworthy is the record from those outcrops of several species, which can be referred to the family Rissoidae (Rissooidea). Formerly, earliest rissoid records were only known from European outcrops of younger age. In the Italian records several species have been recognised belonging to at least two genera of Rissoidae, namely Rissocerithium and Zebinostoma. The presence of such a relatively diversified number of species, bears witness of a well established group. They should have had a common ancestor with the Rissoina-like rissoids of the continental...

Autores: Hyžný, M.; Gašparič, R.; Robins, C.M.; Schlögl, J.
All squat lobsters of the families Galatheidae, Munididae and Munidopsidae from the Miocene of the Central Paratethys are reviewed taxonomically. Based on additional observations emended diagnoses are provided for Agononida cerovensis and Galathea weinfurteri, from the Lower and Middle Miocene, respectively. Munidopsis is represented by two species in the study area; additional data for M. lieskovensis from the Lower Miocene of Slovakia are presented and a new species, M. palmuelleri, from the Middle Miocene of Slovenia is erected. Implications for palaeoenvironmental reconstructions are briefly discussed for each taxon.

Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Daams, R.; Freudenthal, M.; Meulen, A.J. van der.
The paleoecological analysis of Neogene rodent faunas in the Calatayud-Teruel Basin leads to the recognition of three realtively cool, and two relatively warm periods. The humidity curve reveals four wet and four dry periods. The results agree remarkably well with temperature and humidity curves obtained from other geological disciplines.

Epileptobos gen. nov. for Leptobos groeneveldtii Dubois from the Middle Pleistocene of Java
Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Hooijer, D.A.
For a study in progress on the fossil Bovidae collected in Java by Eug. Dubois the necessity was felt to create a new genus for the inclusion of the species described as Leptobos groeneveldtii by Dubois (1908, p. 1261). The diagnosis is presented in this place in order that the name may be made available. Epileptobos gen. nov. Diagnosis: Large Bovinae with relatively broad and low skull. Horns in both sexes. Parietal extremely short, forming a sagittal crest that begins opposite the centre of the horn cores, and passes backward into a strong triangular parieto-occipital eminence, much raised above the fronto-parietal suture and overhanging the occipital. Temporal crests prominent. Occiput triangular in back view, the top of the triangle being formed by the...

Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Esu, D.; Girotti, O.; Kotsakis, T.
In this paper the palaeobiogeographical affinities of Villafranchian continental molluscan faunas of Italy are examined. The best known Early Villafranchian (= Middle Pliocene) assemblages come from the Piedmont Basin which delivered a rich malacofauna dominated by archaic pulmonates, studied a hundred years ago by Sacco. New sampling in this basin by the authors of this paper have permitted to find some other palaeobiogeographically interesting taxa. Many taxa indicate strong affinities with west-European basins (France, western Germany). In central Italy, recent findings in deposits of the Tiberino Basin (Umbria) have pointed out a good number of Early Villafranchian pulmonate species common to the Piedmont Basin and some endemic aquatic prosobranchs.

[The fossil record of the Eurasian Neogene insectivores (Erinaceomorpha, Soricomorpha, Mammalia) : Part I / L.W. van den Hoek Ostende, C.S. Doukas and J.W.F. Reumer (editors)]: China
Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Qiu, Z.; Storch, G.
Introduction Extensive excavation activities by the Institute of Vertebrate Paleontology and Paleoanthropology, Beijing (IVPP) over the last 20 years have increased our knowledge of the Neogene micromammals from China considerably. Yet, it is still rather fragmentary; we deal with a very vast country with a complex geological and faunal history and varied ecological conditions at all times. The fossil sites are not distributed evenly in time and space (Fig. 1), and among Neogene micromammals, insectivores are often disregarded taxonomically, even though they are a major element in most assemblages. Qiu (1988) and Qiu &amp; Qiu (1995) discussed the major Neogene micromammal faunas from China and presented faunal lists, including insectivores. The location...

Fossil rhinoceroses from Hopefield, South Africa
Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Hooijer, D.A.; Singer, R.
INTRODUCTION The fossil specimens of rhinoceroses recovered at the "Elandsfontein" site, Hopefield, Cape Province, belong to the two living species of Africa, viz., Ceratotherium simum (Burchell) and Diceros bicornis (L.) (Singer, 1954). Both are widely distributed in the African Pleistocene (see Hopwood and Hollyfield, 1954), and their distinguishing dental characters have been described by Cooke (1950). The purpose of the present publication is to place the Hopefield material on record. The general age of the Hopefield fauna is considered to be early Upper Pleistocene, but it is probable that part of the fauna dates from the late Middle Pleistocene (Singer, 1957). In the material recorded below Ceratotherium is about four times less abundantly...

Autores: Harten, D. van.
A new species of Cyprideis is described and illustrated by scanning electron micrographs. Certain features of this form are basically new for Cyprideis and interesting from a general point of view: (1) the ontogenetical appearance of lateral nodes in as early an instar as A-5; (2) the concurrent presence of as many as eight lateral nodes in juveniles and seven in adults; and (3) sexual dimorphism and left-to-right asymmetry in the width of the anterior marginal zone.

Elephas Celebensis (Hooijer) from the Pleistocene of Java
Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Hooijer, D.A.
In a recent monograph, Maglio (1973) states that Stegodon hypsilophus Hooijer (1954a) must be considered a synonym of Elephas celebensis (Hooijer, 1949). Though Elephas celebensis is smaller-toothed and more hypsodont than the "hypsilophous stegodont" of Java (width of M3 42-52 mm against 62-64 mm; height-width index 106-116 against 87-89: Hooijer, 1954a, b; Maglio, 1973: 46, table 21), Maglio (1973: 47) considers the differences not great when the degree of variation of known samples (in other species) is allowed for.  Over the years, I studied molars of pygmy proboscideans from various Indonesian islands, and it never occurred to me that the Java pygmy would be same as that from Celebes until this suggestion was put forth by Dr. Maglio.

A new raninoidian crab, Bellcarcinus aptiensis gen. nov., sp. nov., is described from the upper Aptian of Colombia. The new genus displays a combination of traits seen among some ancient species within the Necrocarcinidae and Orithopsidae, obscuring its family placement. This taxon represents the sixth known genus of pre-Albian raninoidians worldwide, and the fourth known from Colombia, in addition to Joeranina, Planocarcinus and Colombicarcinus. Bellcarcinus gen. nov., together with other Early Cretaceous finds from Colombia and Brazil, represents early stocks of stem-group frog crabs, which indicate that tropical South America might have played an important role in the early radiation of the group.

Insectivore faunas from the Lower Miocene of Anatolia - Part 6: Crocidosoricinae (Soricidae)
Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Hoek Ostende, L.W. van den.
The literature on the Crocidosoricinae is discussed, with emphasis on the genera Crocidosorex Lavocat, 1951 and Oligosorex Kretzoi, 1959. A new species of Oligosorex, O. reumeri, is described from the Lower Miocene locality Keseköy. The other localities in this study contain a closely related species, Oligosorex aff. reumeri. Three other shrews have been found, but the material is insufficient to allow a generic allocation. The shrews designated as Soricid I and Soricid II are considered to represent one evolutionary lineage. Soricid III is a small species, comparable to ‘Crocidosorex sp.’ from the Lower Miocene locality Ulm-Westtangente (Germany).

Late Miocene Mollusca from Tapian Langsat and Gunung Batuta, Sungai Bungalun area, Kalimantan (E. Borneo)
Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Beets, C.
Two rather small mollusc faunas, collected nearly seventy years ago by L. M. R. Rutten, have been examined. Though fairly close together and presumably not much different in age (Preangerian: Tf3), they show no relationship to one another. Tapian Langsat: this locality yielded 11 species all of which occur in Preangerian deposits, particularly in the basal Menkrawit and Gelingseh Beds of the Sangkulirang/Mangkalihat area much farther to the North, there being but a solitary species in common with the classical Javanese Preangerian. Gunung Batuta: consisting of 13 species, this assemblage has, like the corals from the same locality but unlike Tapian Langsat, a number of species (in this case 8) in common with the classical Preangerian, while the...

A new early brachyuran (Crustacea, Decapoda) from the Middle Jurassic of northwest France, epibionts and ecological considerations
Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Robin, N.; Bakel, B.W.M. van; Hondt, J.-L. d'; Charbonnier, S.
The earliest known crabs are of Early and Middle Jurassic age; in general, they are rare. Here we describe a new species of homolodromioid from the late Bathonian of Sarthe (France), based on a single dorsal carapace, Tanidromites raboeufi n. sp. This specimen has mostly well-preserved cuticle, and shows two episkeletozoans (bryozoan colonies) on its dorsal side, which is unique amongst early brachyurans (Early and Middle Jurassic). These bryozoans are identified as juvenile colonies of the morphogenus Berenicea (sheet-like tubuluporines), typical encrusters of hard substrates. Their presence directly on the carapace crab shows that they were closely cohabitating with this early brachyuran in its palaeoenvironment. One of these colonies appears to have...

The analysis of early Kasimovian (Pennsylvanian) brachiopod assemblages from two fossiliferous localities of the Las Llacerias Formation (Ándara Massif, Picos de Europa, northern Spain) improve our knowledge of this fossil group in the Cantabrian Zone. At the Morra de Lechugales Peak (locality 1), marlstones and bioclastic limestones, accumulated in a low energy, subtidal, aphotic setting, characterize a soft muddy sea-floor affected by periodic intense bottom currents and provide a rich assemblage of brachiopods together with other macrofossils. Brachiopod specimens are characterized by their small size (&lt;10 mm) and belong to 38 different taxa. The fossiliferous dark marly limestones at the Castillo del Grajal (locality 2) record a very shallow water,...

Preangerian (late Miocene) Mollusca from a hill near Sekurau, northern Kutai, Kalimantan Timur (East Borneo)
Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Beets, C.
Molluscan fossils deriving from the western foot of a hill near Sekurau, northern Kutai, were collected by Dr M. Schmidt in 1902 in a Late Miocene succession of clayey/sandy deposits with some limestones and sandstones, overlain by Pliocene coral limestones whose fossil content has been described before. Sixty Miocene species are discussed, their combined stratigraphic ranges strongly suggesting a Preangerian age (Tf3), the fauna perhaps being a little younger than the fauna of the Gelingseh Beds from Sungai Gelingseh (to be described in a forthcoming paper) and nearer in age to Muara Kobun, recently described. The fauna would appear to have lived under sub-littoral conditions. A few new species and a new subspecies are described: Eunaticina visenda,...

The assemblage of small mammals from Sabuncubeli is of special interest because: 1) it is the first from the Early Miocene of Anatolia that occurs associated with a set of large mammal remains, 2) it is only the second from Anatolia representing MN3, 3) it has a composition that is essentially different from the one from Keseköy, the other MN3 assemblage from Anatolia.  Some of the genera and species that are common in Keseköy are either very rare or absent in Sabuncubeli: i.e. the insectivores Galerix uenayae and Theratiskos and the rodents Debruijnia, Vallaris, Sayimys and Enginia.

The insectivores from the Thrace locality of Karydia (MN 4) are described, as well as an erinaceid molar from thenearby locality of Komotini (MN 5). The Karydia assemblagecontains the same genera of the Greek MN 4 localityAliveri, with the addition of a shrew and of Plesiosorex. An M2 of the latter is the southernmost occurrence of this genus, and the first record from the Mediterranean area. At the species level there are differences between Karydia and Aliveri. As Galerix kostakii n.sp. from Karydia is interpreted as a descendant of G. symeonidisi from Aliveri, a younger age for the Thrace locality, as was already assumed on the basis of the rodents, is confirmed. A model is proposed in which the symeondisi-kostakii lineage gives rise to Parasorex, of...

The evolution of the brain in Canidae (Mammalia: Carnivora)
Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Lyras, G.A.
Canid brain evolution followed three independent, yet convergent paths. Each of the three canid subfamilies (Hesperocyoninae, Borophaginae and Caninae) started with a simple brain, which gradually  became more complicated as the cerebral cortex became larger and more fissured, the cerebellar hemispheres became larger and the vermis more twisted. The extent to which these evolutionary changes  took place differs between the three canid subfamilies. Caninae, the living group, has the most advanced external brain anatomy. This is related to the general tendency of the carnivore brain to become  more convoluted through geological time. A parallel development of similar sulcal patt erns took place in independent lineages within the Canidae. As a result, some...

Marls assigned to the Coll de Malla Formation (Lutetian) in the area of Vic (Barcelona) and Sarrià de Ter (Girona) have yielded several specimens of a new brachyuran that can be assigned with confidence to the superfamily Majoidea. General carapace shape, the produced and bilobed front, with two longitudinal rounded ridges, the construction of the orbits, the gently arched posterior margin, as well as the strong conical protuberances in the dorsal regions, favour placement in the family Inachidae. The construction and distribution of the axial and branchial regions confirms assignment to the genus Planobranchia. Distinct features seen in the new material, such as the arched epibranchial ridges bounding the urogastric region, the gently arched posterior...

The fossils from Muara Kobun were collected by M. Schmidt (Royal Dutch Petroleum Company) as far back as 1902. Eighteen species, including two new ones (Cerithium (Gourmya) kobunense and Carditella witkampi) have been examined, the majority being gastropods whose combined stratigraphical ranges suggest a Preangerian age, with, however, the additional stipulation that perhaps some level high up in Tertiary f3 is involved rather than an age comparable to that of the Gelingseh faunas first partly described by K. Martin and the present writer. The molluscs from Pulu Senumpah were collected by L.M.R. Rutten in the period 1911-1913. There are no more than seven species, all gastropods, over half of which indicate best relationships with the Muara Kobun fauna,...

Distribution and evolutionary history of the Early Miocene erinaceid Galerix symeonidisi Doukas, 1986
Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Hoek Ostende, L.W. van den; Doukas, C.S.
The distribution of the Early Miocene galericine Galerix symeonidisi, with records from Greece, Germany, Spain and Austria is discussed. The identification of G. cf. symeonidisi from the Anatolian Çankiri basin is changed into G. cf. uenayae on the basis of additional material. Galerix symeonidisi enters Europe at the MN 3/ MN 4 transition. Differences in the pattern of replacement of the preceding Galerix species in Germany and Spain suggest that ecological factors played a role in that replacement. Galerix symeonidisi is succeeded by G. exilis in Western and Central Europe. A G. symeonidisi - G. exilis lineage, as has been proposed in literature, is rejected. The record from the Daroca-Calamocha area (Spain) is instead interpreted as a case of gradual...

Towards a systematic standard approach to describing fossil crinoids, illustrated by the redescription of a Scottish Silurian Pisocrinus de Koninck
Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Fearnhead, F.E.
Systematic taxonomy requires thoughtful, detailed and structured descriptions of species characters, and essential additional data for effective comparison with other specimens. Crinoid terminology is commonly misused or at best confused. The purpose of this paper is to facilitate this process by encouraging a standard methodology which would make comparisons of fossil crinoid taxa easier for all. An ordered tabulation of those characters that should be considered in any description of a fossil crinoid is provided and implemented in describing a Scottish Llandovery (Lower Silurian) disparid crinoid Pisocrinus cf. campana S.A. Miller.

Embryonal structures of Miogypsina
Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Bock, J.F. de.
Excellent scanning electron micrographs of embryonal structures of bispiral Miogypsina's were made, which solve a number of problems raised by details seen in thin sections. Special attention has been paid to the stolon-system near the second primary auxiliary chamber (ΡΑ-II). From the deuteroconch to the ΡΑ-II two funnel-shaped stolons cross the cylindrical protoconchal stolon on both sides. Once a 'lip' around the protoconchal stolon was discovered, it turned out to exist in nearly all the bispiral specimens.

The ‘Pseudocrioceras interval’ and adjacent beds at La Bédoule (SE France): implications to highest Barremian/lowest Aptian biostratigraphy
Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Ropolo, P.; Gonnet, R.; Conte, G.
Biostratigraphical investigation of the marly limestones of the La Bédoule area (SE France) has revealed a rich macrofaunal interval in four different sections, mainly consisting of the ammonite genera Pseudocrioceras and Barremites. A detailed study of the immediately under- and over-lying beds shows that in all four sections, the Pseudocrioceras interval, unambiguously equivalent to the Pseudocrioceras coquandi Zone of Busnardo (1984), occurs stratigraphically between a late Barremian heteroceratid fauna (Colchidites aff. tsholashensis (Rouchadze), Martelites aff. vulanensis (Egoian), Simionescites aff. simionescui Avram) of the Martelites sarasini Zone (Hoedemaeker et al., 1993) and an earliest Aptian deshayesitid fauna (Deshayesites antiquus Bogdanova,...

Groebericeras bifrons Leanza is described from the Chacao Formation of central Mendoza and the Lo Valdês Formation of central Chile. The species appears limited to the Argentiniceras noduliferum Zone, which is traditionally placed in the lower Berriasian. Spanish records of Groebericeras appear to be younger (Hoedemaeker, 1982), while Groebericeras from Iraq were placed in the late Berriasian by comparison with the Spanish records (Howarth, 1992).

A century of research on the classical locality of Tegelen (province of Limburg, The Netherlands)
Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Hoek Ostende, L.W. van den; Vos, J. de.
In 1904 Eugène Dubois published the first report on fossil mammals from the vicinity of Tegelen. After a century of research the clay-pits from the area are known as a classical locality for Villafranchian mammals. Antje Schreuder's work was particularly important for making the fossils from Tegelen known. Her papers, however, also indicate some problems. The large mammal fossils were gathered by clay-workers in the local ceramic industry, and the fragmentary nature of the fossils is partly caused by injudicious handling while extracting the bones from the clay. Because the Tegelen fossils are chance finds rather than the results of careful excavations, their exact provenance is not established. The only exception is the collection of micromammals, which...

Revisión de los Sciuridae del Aragoniense y del Rambliense en la fosa de Calatayud-Montalbán = Revision of Aragonian and Ramblian Sciuridae in the Calatayud-Montalban Trench
Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Cuenca Bescós, G.
The Sciuridae are the family of rodents that comprises all extant and fossil squirrels. In the Ramblian and especially in the Aragonian of the Tertiary basin of Calatayud-Montalbán (Aragón, Spain) the remains of Sciuridae are relatively abundant. A major problem solved in this paper is the distinction of Ml and M2, both in the upper and the lower dentition. Traditionally, in the literature these elements are treated as a unit Ml,2. We managed to separate them, on the basis of the study of material of two extant species, Atlantoxerus getulus and Sciurus vulgaris. In our study of the fossil Sciuridae from the Calatayud-Montalbán Basin 9 species were recognized, belonging to 6 genera: Heteroxerus rubricati, H. grivensis, Atlantoxerus idubedensis sp. nov., A....

Oxfordian (Upper Jurassic) siliceous sponge-microbial reef strata in the southern Polish Uplands around Kraków have recently yielded two types of sixth abdominal tergites of pylochelid paguroids. We here add a third one, Pylochelitergites exspectatus sp. nov. These small-sized, operculiform remains have a high preservation potential and thus allow us to document the geological history of two families of symmetrical hermit crabs, the Pylochelidae and Parapylochelidae, in some detail.

How near, how far? Adaptive radiation in mammals and birds on various islands
Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Hoek Ostende, L.W. van den; Locatelli, E.; Meijer, H.J.M.
Many factors control radiations on islands, but some general patterns do emerge. Bird radiations are mostly found on oceanic archipelagos far from the continental coast line. Mammal radiations are mostly know from island arcs, which are somewhat easier to reach though still isolated enough to allow evolutionary lineages to develop and diverge. In contrast to birds, strong mammal radiations seem possible on a single island.

Teredolites longissimus Kelly &amp; Bromley from the Miocene Grand Bay Formation of Carriacou, the Grenadines, Lesser Antilles
Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Pickerill, R.K.; Donovan, S.K.; Portell, R.W.
The ichnotaxon Teredolites Leymerie, 1842, represented by T. longissimus Kelly &amp; Bromley, 1984, is documented for the first time from the Lesser Antilles. Its occurrence also represents the first record of the ichnotaxon from the Miocene of the Caribbean. Five specimens, each occurring in isolation without an enclosing xylic (wood) substrate, but merely calcite-lined tubes, occur in the Miocene Grand Bay Formation of Carriacou, the Grenadines, Lesser Antilles. Stratinomic considerations suggest that following physical destruction or biological decomposition of their enclosing substrate(s), the tubes may have accumulated in relatively shallow water only to be subsequently resedimented into a deeperwater (&gt; 150 m) environment.

Hoplitomerycidae fam. nov. (Ruminantia, Mammalia) from Neogene fissure fillings in Gargano (Italy) Part 1: The cranial osteology of Hoplitomeryx gen. nov. and a discussion on the classification of pecoran families
Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Leinders, J.
It is concluded that the endemic Ruminantia from the Late Miocene island-fauna of Monte Gargano (Italy) originated from antlerless Cervidae. This in spite of the fact that these Ruminantia from Gargano evidently had horncore-like cranial appendages. The presence of horncores, in combination with the presence of characters diagnostic for the Cervidae, justifies the classification of the Gargano ruminants in a separate family: Hoplitomerycidae fam. nov. which family is included in the Cervoidea. The classification of the pecoran families is discussed. The Giraffidae are more closely related to the Bovidae than to the Cervidae. It is proposed that the Giraffidae be transferred from the Cervoidea to the Bovoidea. Palaeomeryx is probably not closely related to...

Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Rzebik-Kowalska, B.
Introduction Despite the 19th century tradition of mammalian palaeontology in the present territory of Poland, the oldest records of insectivores are found in the papers of Andreae (1904), Schlosser (in Zittel, 1911) and Wegner (1913), who described the fauna from the Middle Miocene (MN 6) locality of Opole 1 in Silesia. The insectivores were represented in this locality by Metacordylodon schlosseri (Andreae, 1904) (Dimylidae), Talpa minuta Blainville, 1838 (Talpidae), and Erinaceus sansaniensis Lartet, 1851 (Erinaceidae). According to Wegner (1913) the latter form was similar to the Miocene hedgehog found at Sansan in France. The later revision of the Sansan material showed that it was not uniform. Part of it was transferred to the genus Lantanotherium...

Insectivore faunas from the Lower Miocene of Anatolia - Part 7: The Kargi assemblages
Provedor de dados: 16
Autores: Hoek Ostende, L.W. van den.
The insectivores of three assemblages from the Kargi K.Y.B. lignite mine are described. These assemblages are considered to be of Early Miocene age, intermediate between those from Inkonak and Kilçak. In Kargi 2 a shrew was found that was not yet known from Lower Miocene deposits in Anatolia. All other insectivores found were encountered in Inkonak and/or Kilçak also. Notable absentees are the talpids Theratiskos and Suleimania, a small shrew and the dimylid Turkodimylus. The two talpids and the shrew are probably Asian immigrants that appeared in Anatolia after the deposition of the Kargi lignite sequence. The absence of Turkodimylus is probably a result of the small sampling sizes.
