The Suidae from the late Miocene of Alsótelekes (northeastern Hungary, Borsod-Abaúj-Zemplén county) are described and assigned to Propotamochoerus palaeochoerus (Suinae) and cf. Parachleuastochoerus (Tetraconodontinae). The co-occurrence of these two taxa agrees with a reference to the early Vallesian (MN 9), as previously indicated from biochronological correlation of the small mammal fauna, and suggests the presence of woodland environments, with abundance of below-ground resources and direct access to water. This fits well with the diverse wetlands and riparian forests that characterized Lake Pannon ∼10 Ma, as documented in the geographically close site of Rudabánya. The convoluted taxonomy of European Tetraconodontinae is discussed.

对Alsótelekes(匈牙利东北部Borsod-Abaúj-Zemplén县)中新世晚期的绥科进行了描述,并将其划分为Propotamochoerus paleochoerus(绥亚科)和cf. Parachleuastochoerus(四齿龙科)。这两个分类群的共存与先前小型哺乳动物区系的生物年代学相关性表明的早期瓦列西亚(MN 9)相一致,并表明存在林地环境,地下资源丰富,可直接获得水。这与地理位置接近的Rudabánya遗址所记录的Pannon湖的多样性湿地和河岸森林非常吻合。讨论了欧洲四齿兽科复杂的分类。

Marine Piacenzian deposits are extremely rare in the eastern Mediterranean region, resulting in a stratigraphic gap in our knowledge of the late Pliocene evolution of the marine ecosystem and its fauna. Fish assemblages moreover are scant throughout the Pliocene. We present here the teleost fish fauna of the Piacenzian Polis basin (SW Cyprus) based on otolith assemblages, and we use them to reconstruct the paleoenvironment. Twenty-six teleost fish taxa are identified, placed under sixteen genera and five families. Planktonic foraminifera biostratigraphy places the studied outcrop within the subzones MPL4a and MPL5a (early–middle Piacenzian). Four species and two genera of fish are reported for the first time in the Piacenzian of the Mediterranean. The studied otolith assemblage from Androlykou section consists of very shallow-water fish mixed with mesopelagic taxa indicating topographical steepness with easy access to the open ocean. In addition, the fish assemblages mainly include representatives of subtropical taxa suggesting a climate warmer than today. These data provide new information on the composition of the ichthyofauna of the eastern Mediterranean during the Piacenzian, paving the way for new studies in the Cyprus area.

海洋皮亚琴阶沉积在东地中海地区极为罕见,导致我们对上新世晚期海洋生态系统及其动物群演化的认识出现了地层空白。此外,鱼类群落在整个上新世都很稀少。本文介绍了塞浦路斯西南部Piacenzian Polis盆地基于耳石组合的硬骨鱼区系,并利用它们重建了古环境。已鉴定出硬骨鱼26个分类群,隶属于5科16属。浮游有孔虫生物地层学将研究露头置于MPL4a亚带和MPL5a亚带(早-中皮亚生世)内。在地中海皮亚琴海首次报道了4种2属鱼类。所研究的Androlykou剖面耳石组合由极浅水鱼类和中远洋分类群混合组成,表明地形陡峭,易于进入公海。此外,鱼类组合主要包括亚热带分类群的代表,表明气候比现在更温暖。这些数据提供了关于皮亚琴期地中海东部鱼类区系组成的新资料,为塞浦路斯地区的新研究铺平了道路。

The Maghreb’s Mediterranean coastal edge is home to many peatlands with boreal floristic affinities and high conservation value. This work aims at investigating the Holocene developmental history of these wetlands in Northern Morocco, based on pollen record, loss-on-ignition and radiocarbon dating. First, the comparison between modern pollen spectra and present-day hydrophytic vegetation makes it possible to identify the local pollen signal. Second, while peatlands have existed in the Rif for at least 13,000 years, their initiation mostly by paludification extends throughout the Holocene. Their plant composition remains relatively unchanged for millennia, but swamp undergrowth could locally experience changes in taxa dominance. Mid- to late-Holocene sedimentation changes appear to result from the human-induced regional decline of cedar. The major changes experienced by wetlands occurred recently, due to clearing, burning and overgrazing. Effective conservation policies should be urgently implemented in order to save the last relict peatlands of Northern Morocco.

马格里布的地中海沿岸是许多泥炭地的家园,具有北方植物群的相似性和很高的保护价值。本研究旨在通过花粉记录、燃烧损失和放射性碳测年研究摩洛哥北部这些湿地的全新世发育历史。首先,将现代花粉谱与现代水生植被进行比较,使局部花粉信号的识别成为可能。其次,尽管泥炭地在裂谷中存在了至少13000年,但泥炭地的形成主要是由泥化作用延续到整个全新世。它们的植物组成几千年来保持相对不变,但沼泽灌木丛可能在局部经历类群优势的变化。全新世中期至晚期的沉积变化似乎是人类活动引起的杉木区域减少的结果。由于砍伐、焚烧和过度放牧,湿地的主要变化发生在最近。应紧急执行有效的保护政策,以拯救摩洛哥北部最后的残余泥炭地。

The age and homogeneity of the Khaprovskii Faunal Complex have been a matter of debate for a long time. This works provides the most complete information (photographs and numerical data) ever published on the equid remains of this Complex. Evidence is given for the presence of no less than three, possibly six taxa of Equids. Most fossils are referred to Equus (Allohippus) aff. major and to Equus (Allohippus) livenzovensis, both redefined on the basis of correlations between cranial and metapodial dimensions. Comparisons with Chinese fossils bring evidence for their age approximating 2.5 Ma. A third very large species is represented by a few teeth and metapodials which may have been intrusive. It is referred to E. (Sussemionus) aff. verae because of similarities with the NE Siberian species believed to be about 1 myr old. Accumulation of fossils during a long period is probably responsible for the large intraspecific variation observed in E. (A.) major and E. (A.) livenzovensis and for the occurrence of several other equid forms. Possible intrusions may also explain the abnormal number of observed taxa. Resemblances with Chinese and NE Siberian fossils indicate Asian influences on the composition of the Khaprovskii Faunal Complex.

哈普罗夫斯基动物群的年龄和同质性长期以来一直是一个争论的问题。这部作品提供了迄今为止关于这个建筑群的遗迹的最完整的信息(照片和数字数据)。有证据表明,这里存在着不少于三种,甚至可能是六种马科动物。大多数化石被称为Equus (Allohippus) aff. major和Equus (Allohippus) livenzovensis,两者都是根据颅骨和后足部尺寸之间的相关性重新定义的。与中国化石的比较表明它们的年龄约为2.5 Ma。第三种非常大的物种以一些牙齿和可能侵入的后足趾为代表。它被称为E. (Sussemionus) af . verae,因为与东北西伯利亚的物种相似,据信大约有1万年的历史。在很长一段时间内化石的积累可能是在e.a major和e.a livenzovensis中观察到的巨大种内变异以及其他几种马科动物形式出现的原因。可能的入侵也可以解释观察到的分类群数量异常。与中国和东北西伯利亚化石的相似性表明亚洲对哈普罗夫斯基动物群的组成有影响。

The bivalve fauna from the Sandbian Letná Formation of the Prague Basin includes ten species: Praenucula bohemica, Myoplusia cf. incisa, Synek sp., Pseudarca? incola, Cuneamya catilloides, Modiolopsis draboviensis, Macrodesma flexa, Ectenocardiomorpha veterana, Whiteavesia antiquior, and Myodakryotus patricia. Modiolopsis, often used as a “cumulative” name for pteriomorphids from the Late Ordovician, is recorded from the Letná Formation, including only one species. Species palaeoecology is analysed and briefly discussed. Although the infaunal and semi-infaunal elements still prevail, the epifaunal bivalves are also significantly represented. The Sandbian bivalve fauna of the Barrandian area comes from high latitudes of the Southern hemisphere. Pteriomorphids are dominant, but heteroconchs and protobranchs belong also to important elements in the bivalve association from the Letná Formation. From coarse quartzose sandstones of the Letná Formation the Modiolopsis draboviensis Association of the Modiolopsis Community is established. The composition of the Late Ordovician bivalve fauna from the different areas and sedimentological environments are compared and discussed. There is a clear trend toward rapid diversification of pteriomorphids and epifaunal bivalves in all palaeocontinents. Bivalves from the Letná Formation of the Barrandian area show affinities to the Sandbian bivalve faunas from Avalonia, Laurentia and Morocco.

布拉格盆地Sandbian letnn组双壳动物群包括Praenucula bohemica、Myoplusia cf. incisa、Synek sp.、Pseudarca?松果、山茱萸、斑点斑拟青苔、屈形大鳞青苔、兽心青苔、古白斑青苔和patricia Myodakryotus。Modiolopsis,通常被用作晚奥陶纪翼形类的“累积”名称,记录于letn组,仅包括一个物种。对物种古生态学进行了分析和简要讨论。虽然土生和半土生双壳类仍然占主导地位,但土生双壳类也有显著的代表性。巴兰地地区的沙边双壳动物群来自南半球的高纬度地区。翼形类占主导地位,但异螺类和原枝类也属于letn组双壳类组合的重要组成部分。从letn组的粗石英砂岩中,建立了modolopsis draboviensis群落协会。对不同地区和不同沉积环境的晚奥陶世双壳类动物群的组成进行了比较和讨论。在所有古大陆上,翼形类和脚底双壳类都有快速多样化的明显趋势。Barrandian地区letn组的双壳类与来自Avalonia、Laurentia和摩洛哥的Sandbian双壳类动物群有亲缘关系。

The Aurora Subglacial Basin (ASB) catchment contains 3–5 m of sea-level equivalent ice volume that drains to the Sabrina Coast, East Antarctica via the Totten Glacier system. Observed thinning and retreat of Totten Glacier indicate regional sensitivity to oceanographic and atmospheric warming. Paleoclimate studies of climatically sensitive catchments are required to understand the evolution of the East Antarctic Ice Sheet (EAIS) and its outlet glacier systems. Recent seismic and sediment studies from the Sabrina Coast document the evolution of the EAIS in the ASB catchment, suggesting that the region has long been sensitive to climatic changes. This study presents new palynological and biomarker data from Sabrina Coast continental shelf sediments. Detailed palynological records were obtained from four short jumbo piston cores (JPC; NBP14-02 JPC-30, -31, -54 and -55), enabling reconstructions of regional vegetation and environments prior to and during Cenozoic EAIS development. The Sabrina Flora is dominated by angiosperms, with Gambierina spp. often exceeding 40% of the assemblage, and diverse Proteaceae, Battenipollis spp., Forcipites spp., Nothofagidites spp., fern, and conifer palynomorphs indicative of an open shrubby ecosystem. Excellent preservation and frequent occurrence of Gambierina spp. clusters suggest that a majority of the Sabrina Flora assemblage is penecontemporaneous with sedimentation; however, some uncertainties remain whether this sedimentation occurred in the Late Cretaceous or the Paleogene. Despite that uncertainty, high abundances of Gambierina spp. and Battenipollis spp., in combination with relatively low (<10%) Nothofagidites spp. abundances indicate that the Sabrina Flora is unique in Antarctica. Evaluation of biomarkers finds evidence for penecontemporaneous and reworked components. The penecontemporaneous C30 n-alkanoic acids have δ13C values of −30.2 ± 0.5‰, consistent with δ13C values in an open canopy woodland or shrubby open vegetation. Their hydrogen isotope (δD) values of −215 ± 4.5‰, indicate precipitation isotopic composition (δDprecip) of −130‰, similar to coastal snow in the same region today. Together, Sabrina Flora palynomorph and plant wax data suggest a drier, more open coastal vegetation in the Aurora Basin of East Antarctica rather than the closed rainforest vegetation often described from other parts of Antarctica for the Cretaceous to Paleogene. To directly compare records from the circum-Antarctic, additional long sedimentary records with improved biostratigraphic constraints are required. Such records will enable identification of regional climate gradients or micro-climates, and allow assessment of the environmental conditions and mechanisms driving obser

奥罗拉冰下盆地(Aurora Subglacial Basin, ASB)集水区包含3-5米的相当于海平面的冰量,通过Totten冰川系统流入南极洲东部的萨布丽娜海岸。观测到的Totten冰川变薄和退缩表明区域对海洋和大气变暖的敏感性。气候敏感流域的古气候研究是了解南极东部冰盖及其出口冰川系统演变的必要条件。Sabrina海岸最近的地震和沉积物研究记录了ASB流域EAIS的演变,表明该地区长期以来对气候变化很敏感。本文介绍了来自萨布丽娜海岸大陆架沉积物的孢粉学和生物标志物的新数据。从四个短巨型活塞岩心(JPC;NBP14-02 JPC-30, -31, -54和-55),能够重建新生代EAIS发育之前和期间的区域植被和环境。Sabrina植物区系以被子植物为主,Gambierina spp.占总组合的40%以上,Proteaceae、Battenipollis spp.、Forcipites spp.、Nothofagidites spp.、蕨类和针叶林等种类繁多,显示出开放的灌木生态系统。Gambierina spp.集群保存完好且频繁出现,表明Sabrina Flora的大部分组合与沉积是准同生的;然而,这种沉积是发生在晚白垩世还是古近纪还存在一些不确定性。尽管存在这种不确定性,但高丰度的Gambierina spp.和Battenipollis spp.,加上相对较低(<10%)的Nothofagidites spp.丰度表明,Sabrina植物群在南极洲是独一无二的。生物标记物的评估发现了准同时期和再加工成分的证据。准同生C30正烷烃酸的δ13C值为−30.2±0.5‰,与开阔林冠林地或灌丛开阔植被的δ13C值一致。它们的氢同位素(δD)值为- 215±4.5‰,表明降水同位素组成(δ dprecp)为- 130‰,与今天同一地区的沿海积雪相似。Sabrina Flora palynomorph和植物蜡的数据共同表明,南极洲东部极光盆地的沿海植被更干燥、更开放,而不是白垩纪到古近纪期间南极洲其他地区经常描述的封闭雨林植被。为了直接比较南极周围的记录,需要更多的具有更好的生物地层学约束的长沉积记录。这些记录将有助于确定区域气候梯度或小气候,并允许评估驱动观测到的差异的环境条件和机制。

Together, Sabrina Flora palynomorph and plant wax data suggest a drier, more open coastal vegetation in the Aurora Basin of East Antarctica rather than the closed rainforest vegetation often described from other parts of Antarctica for the Cretaceous to Paleogene.

The St Bathans Fauna is a highly diverse non-marine vertebrate assemblage derived from the lower Miocene (19–16 Ma) Bannockburn Formation exposed in Central Otago, New Zealand. Deposited in palaeolake Manuherikia, remains of waterfowl dominate the avian assemblage, which, with eight known species in four genera, is one of the more diverse globally. Here we describe Manuherikia primadividua nov. sp., the fourth species in the genus. The stratigraphic distribution of fossils assignable to M. primadividua nov. sp. and a previously known species of Manuherikia, M. lacustrina, allow for the recognition of two distinct biozones within the Bannockburn Formation. Fossils of Manuherikia lacustrina are shown to be restricted to beds in the lower 26 m of the Bannockburn Formation in the Manuherikia River Section while fossils of the new species only occur in beds higher than 34 m in this section. This zonation allows correlation of the disparate sites in nearby Mata Creek with the stratigraphy in the Manuherikia River Section. This is the first such biostratigraphical zonation recognised in the fossil-bearing horizons at St Bathans; all other vertebrates have distributions spanning the stratigraphical range of both species. We tentatively correlate this vertebrate zonation with the previously identified pollen zonation, namely the Casuarinaceae Zone and its overlying Asteraceae-Chenopodiaceae or Chenopodipollis chenopodiaceoides Zone. This transition marks a relatively minor environmental change towards drier and more seasonal climates that appears to have driven the palaeoecological replacement of M. lacustrina by M. primadividua nov. sp. in palaeolake Manuherikia.

St Bathans动物群是一个高度多样化的非海洋脊椎动物组合,起源于中新世下部(19-16 Ma) Bannockburn组,暴露在新西兰中部奥塔哥。在马努赫里基亚古湖沉积的水禽遗骸主导着鸟类组合,其中有四个属的八个已知物种,是全球最多样化的鸟类之一。这里我们描述了Manuherikia primaddividua十一月sp.,属中的第四种。可归属于M. primaddividua十一月sp.的化石的地层分布和先前已知的Manuherikia物种M. lacustrina,允许在Bannockburn组中识别两个不同的生物带。Manuherikia湖状藻化石局限于Manuherikia河段Bannockburn组下部26 m的河床,而新种化石仅出现在该河段高于34 m的河床中。这种分区可以将附近Mata Creek的不同地点与Manuherikia河段的地层进行对比。这是在圣巴坦斯的含化石地层中发现的第一个这样的生物地层带;所有其他脊椎动物的分布跨越了这两个物种的地层范围。我们初步将这一脊椎动物带与先前确定的花粉带,即木麻黄科带及其上覆的Asteraceae-Chenopodiaceae或chenopodiacoides带联系起来。这一转变标志着一个相对较小的环境变化,朝着更干燥和更多季节性气候的方向发展,这似乎推动了M. primadivua在马努赫里奇亚古湖的古生态取代M. lacustrina。

The algal genus Vitinellopsis nov. gen. is well represented in the Silurian limestones of Gotland (Sweden). This new taxon is interpreted as a calcified codiacean alga (Chlorophyta, Bryopsidales). In the studied material, the calcareous wall of sparry calcite, probably originally aragonitic, appears well preserved. The subcylindrical thallus, with rounded ends, rarely bifurcated, measures up to 27 mm long and 2.5 mm wide. The medullar zone exhibits 4–6 longitudinal, subtly undulating siphons; the subcortical zone shows inflated, vesiculiform radial siphons, and the cortical zone displays small, relatively short acrophorous siphons. The status of the tribe Vitinelleae nomen novum, formerly Bothryelleae, is discussed. Given its abundance, ease of identification, and short stratigraphic range, Vitinellopsis gotlandica nov. gen., nov. sp. may prove useful for regional correlations, facies and paleobiogeographic studies.

藻属Vitinellopsis 11 . gen在瑞典哥特兰岛志留纪石灰岩中有很好的代表。这一新分类群被解释为钙化的珊瑚藻(蓝藻门,苔藓门)。在所研究的材料中,亮晶方解石的钙质壁,可能原来是文石,似乎保存得很好。近圆柱形菌体,末端圆形,很少分叉,可达27毫米长,2.5毫米宽。髓质区有4-6个纵向、微妙起伏的虹吸管;皮层下区显示膨大的囊泡状径向虹吸管,皮层区显示小的、相对较短的巨噬虹吸管。讨论了Vitinelleae nomen novum部落(原Bothryelleae)的地位。鉴于其丰富、易于识别和地层范围短,golandica nov. gen., nov. sp. Vitinellopsis可能对区域对比、相和古生物地理研究有用。

Latest Smithian (Early Triassic) ammonoid assemblages in Utah (western USA basin) and their implications for regional biostratigraphy, biogeography and placement of the Smithian/Spathian boundary 犹他州(美国西部盆地)最新的史密斯安(早三叠纪)菊石组合及其对区域生物地层学、生物地理学和史密斯安/斯帕锡安边界位置的影响

The late Smithian extinction represents a major event within the Early Triassic. This event generally corresponds to a succession of two, possibly three successively less diverse, cosmopolitan ammonoid assemblages, which when present, provide a robust biostratigraphic framework and precise correlations at different spatial scales. In the western USA basin, known occurrences of latest Smithian taxa are rare and until now, have only been documented from northeastern Nevada. Based on these restricted basinal occurrences, a regional zone representing the latest Smithian was postulated but not corroborated, as representative taxa had not yet been reported from outside Nevada. Here we document two new ammonoid assemblages from distant localities in northern Utah, overlying the late Smithian Anasibirites beds and characterized by the unambiguous co-occurrence of Xenoceltites subevolutus and Pseudosageceras augustum. The existence of a latest Smithian zone in the western USA basin is therefore validated, facilitating the identification of the Smithian/Spathian boundary and intra-basin correlation. This zone also correlates with the latest Smithian zone recognized from southern Tethyan basins. Additionally, these new data support other observed occurrences of Xenoceltites subevolutus throughout most of the late Smithian.

史密斯晚期的灭绝代表了早三叠纪的一个重大事件。这一事件通常对应于两个,可能是三个连续的多样性较低的世界性氨组合的演替,当它们存在时,提供了一个强大的生物地层格架和在不同空间尺度上的精确相关性。在美国西部盆地,已知的最新史密斯分类群的出现是罕见的,到目前为止,只在内华达州东北部有记录。根据这些有限的盆地分布,假设了一个代表最新史密斯物种的区域,但没有得到证实,因为在内华达州以外的地区还没有报告有代表性的分类群。在这里,我们记录了来自犹他州北部遥远地区的两个新的氨类组合,覆盖在史密斯晚期Anasibirites床上,其特征是Xenoceltites subbevolutus和Pseudosageceras augustum的明确共存。因此,证实了美国西部盆地存在最新的史密斯带,有助于确定史密斯带/斯巴达带边界和盆地内对比。该带也与特提斯南部盆地最新发现的史密斯带相对应。此外,这些新数据支持在史密斯晚期的大部分时间里观察到的xenocelite subbevolutus的出现。

Pyritized preservation of chancelloriids from the Cambrian Stage 3 of South China and implications for biomineralization 华南寒武纪第三期球胞体的黄铁矿化保存及其生物矿化意义

The enigmatic Cambrian animal chancelloriids were discovered in a wide range of taphonomic settings; however, preservation of biomineralized sclerite microstructure was solely known from secondarily phosphatized skeletal remains. Here, we investigate a uniquely pyritized chancelloriid from the lower Cambrian Guojiaba Formation in southern Shaanxi Province, China, using a combination of advanced analytic techniques. Results of the energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS), X-Ray Fluorescence (XRF), and Raman spectrum show that the sclerites and scleritomes are preserved as pyritized internal moulds with a calcitic outer layer. The outer layer enveloping the internal moulds likely represents the recrystallized counterpart of the original biomineralized sclerite wall. Distinctive fibrous microstructures are discovered in the sclerites, which echo the features seen in the phosphatized fossils of chancelloriids. The typical microstructure, along with the recrystallized calcite, corroborate the interpretation that chancelloriid sclerites were originally constructed by fibrous aragonite. The stability of the microstructure and mineral composition in both carbonate and siliciclastic backgrounds indicate that chancelloriids were adapted to exploit aragonitic fibres to build their skeletons regardless of the change of their living environments.

在广泛的埋藏环境中发现了神秘的寒武纪动物chancelloriids;然而,生物矿化硬化石微观结构的保存仅从二次磷化的骨骼遗骸中已知。本文采用先进的分析技术,研究了陕南地区下寒武统郭家坝组中一种独特的黄铁矿化旋回体。能谱分析(EDS)、x射线荧光分析(XRF)和拉曼光谱分析结果表明,硬岩石和硬岩体为黄铁矿化的内模,外层为钙质。包裹内部模具的外层可能代表了原始生物矿化硬岩壁的再结晶。在硬膜中发现了独特的纤维状微观结构,这与在球胞体磷化化石中所见的特征相呼应。典型的微观结构,以及方解石的再结晶,证实了原纤维文石构成的球状刚石的解释。碳酸盐和硅橡胶背景下的微观结构和矿物组成的稳定性表明,无论生活环境如何变化,chancelloriids都适应利用文石纤维构建骨架。
