Carbonate fossils from the Maastrichtian Type area offer important insights into climate dynamics across the Cretaceous/Paleogene boundary. While previous research has established the biostratigraphy and a carbon isotope-based geochronological timescale, allowing for global data comparison, constraints on the local seawater properties remain limited. Our study utilizes oxygen and carbon isotopes, as well as clumped isotope thermometry to reconstruct seawater temperature and its oxygen isotope composition based on carbonate fossil assemblages. Novel analyses of fossil echinoderms, brachiopods, gastropods, bivalves, bryozoans and existing studies were clustered according to their stratigraphy and show temperature fluctuations ranging between 18.33.2+3.4 to 22.74.9+5.1 °C (±95 % CI) that together with existing studies temporary match varying activity of Deccan Trap volcanism. The mean temperature estimate for the late Maastrichtian–early Danian of 20.61.2+1.2 °C is slightly warmer than modern annual sea surface temperatures at the same latitude and in line with palaeoclimate simulations using 3 times the preindustrial atmospheric pCO2 as model input. The oxygen isotope composition of the shallow sea environment fluctuate between 0.30.9+0.9 to 1.00.9+1.0‰, together with existing data even to slightly negative values. These fluctuations reflect the highly dynamic hydrologic conditions linked to variations in the evaporation/precipitation budget, sea-level fluctuations and eventual changes in seawater circulation. This study on fossil assemblages from the Maastrichtian Type area shows the dynamic seawater conditions in shallow sea systems and the urgent need for higher spatial and subseasonal resolution when reconstructing regional climate conditions in epeiric marine environments.
来自马斯特里赫特类型地区的碳酸盐化石为白垩纪/古近纪边界的气候动力学提供了重要的见解。虽然以前的研究已经建立了生物地层学和基于碳同位素的年代学时间尺度,允许全球数据比较,但对局部海水性质的限制仍然有限。本研究基于碳酸盐化石组合,利用氧、碳同位素和团块同位素测温法重建海水温度及其氧同位素组成。对棘皮类、腕足类、腹足类、双壳类和苔藓虫化石的新分析和现有研究根据它们的地层聚集在一起,显示温度波动范围在18.3−3.2+3.4至22.7−4.9+5.1°C(±95% CI)之间,与现有研究暂时匹配德干圈闭火山活动的变化。马斯特里赫特晚期-大年早期的平均温度估计为20.6−1.2+1.2°C,略高于同一纬度的现代年海面温度,并且与使用3倍于工业化前大气二氧化碳分压作为模式输入的古气候模拟相一致。浅海环境氧同位素组成在0.3−0.9+0.9 ~ 1.0−0.9+1.0‰之间波动,与已有资料相结合甚至略为负值。这些波动反映了与蒸发/降水收支、海平面波动和海水环流最终变化有关的高度动态水文条件。通过对马斯特里赫特类型区域化石组合的研究,揭示了浅海系统的动态海水条件,以及在近海环境中重建区域气候条件时迫切需要更高的空间和亚季节分辨率。

This paper reports a detailed description of a single acipenserid subopercle from the Maastrichtian Hakobuchi Formation, Yezo Group, Hokkaido, Japan. The specimen has a nearly circular fan shape. Anterior extension and lateral surface ornamentation are observed. These characteristics are similar to those in representatives of the family Acipenseridae among Acipenseriformes. Additionally, the size of the subopercle is more than 15 cm, which leads to an estimated total length of more than 180 cm. This is the first occurrence of sturgeons from the Maastrichtian of East Asia; it reveals the presence of acipenserids in the northwestern Pacific region during the Late Cretaceous. This study also provides new insights into the North American–Asian dispersal route of sturgeons in the Cretaceous.
本文报道了在日本北海道Yezo群Maastrichtian Hakobuchi组中发现的单个蛇尾纲亚环的详细描述。样品呈近似圆形的扇形。观察到前伸和外侧表面纹饰。这些特征类似于那些代表家庭的鲟科鲟目之一。此外,亚环的大小超过15厘米,这导致估计的总长度超过180厘米。这是东亚马斯特里赫特群岛首次出现鲟鱼;它揭示了晚白垩纪西北太平洋地区出现的蛇尾纲动物。该研究也为白垩纪鲟鱼在北美-亚洲的传播路线提供了新的见解。

Nototracans have lived on Earth for over 350 million years, yet limited species records and poor specimen preservation have significantly impeded our understanding of their early evolutionary history. Herein, we supplement the information of a known species and report a new species, Weichangiops trangularis Yang and Hong, 1980 and Weichangiops squamosus sp. nov., from the Lower Cretaceous Yixian Formation in Duolun, Inner Mongolia, China. The diagnosis characters of Weichangiops Yang and Hong, 1980 and W. trangularis were revised based on the new well-preserved specimens. These newly discovered fossil specimens allow for a detailed summary of morphological characteristics in Notostraca, with a systematic review of features observed in Cretaceous lineages. Given the relatively rarity of Cretaceous notostracan fossils, these findings not only expand the known species diversity of this period but also provide valuable insights into the early evolutionary processes of Notostraca.
Nototracans已经在地球上生活了3.5亿多年,但有限的物种记录和可怜的标本保存大大阻碍了我们对他们早期的进化历史的理解。本文补充了内蒙古多伦地区下白垩统易县组已知种的资料,并报道了Weichangiops trangularis Yang和Hong, 1980和Weichangiops squamosus sp. nov.的新种。根据保存完好的新标本,对Weichangiops Yang和Hong, 1980和W. trangularis的诊断特征进行了修订。这些新发现的化石标本使我们能够对Notostraca的形态特征进行详细的总结,并对白垩纪谱系中观察到的特征进行系统的回顾。考虑到白垩纪notostracan化石的相对稀罕性,这些发现不仅扩大了这一时期已知物种的多样性,而且为Notostraca的早期进化过程提供了有价值的见解。

This study presents a revised calcareous nannofossil biostratigraphy and a new high-resolution carbonate carbon isotope record (δ13Ccarb) for the Seaford Head section in southern England, a key reference section for the Upper Cretaceous of NW Europe. A new sedimentary log for the uppermost Turonian – lower middle Coniacian section is drawn and combined with previously published logs for the upper Coniacian to lower Campanian. The compiled isotopic record incorporates 713 new sample data along with recently published δ13Ccarb values from the section, and the calcareous nannofossil biostratigraphy is supported by the detailed analysis of 68 samples, using both semi-quantitative and quantitative abundance data. The local confidence in the record of biohorizons in the section and their supra-regional reliability are addressed. These include the highest and lowest occurrences of index species, but we additionally critically assess the stratigraphic use of highest and lowest consistent occurrences and the Base and Top of taxon acme levels. Three commonly used zonal and two subzonal markers are shown to be unreliable but 10 secondary events show high reliability for correlation. Carbon isotope stratigraphy, supported by macrofossil and microfossil biostratigraphy, allows for precise correlations to other European sections like Trunch, eastern England, and Salzgitter-Salder and Lägerdorf, northern Germany. Our integrated stratigraphic approach thus allows for a more accurate assessment of biozonation schemes and chemostratigraphy. In particular, this study provides a valuable resource for the refined stratigraphic expression of Coniacian, Santonian and Campanian stage boundaries and large-scale correlation of southern England to Global Stratotype Sections and Points (GSSPs).
本文介绍了英国南部西福德Head剖面钙质纳米化石生物地层学的修正和新的高分辨率碳酸盐碳同位素记录(δ13Ccarb),该剖面是欧洲西北部上白垩统的重要参考剖面。绘制了上Turonian—下Coniacian剖面的新沉积测井曲线,并与已有的上Coniacian—下Campanian剖面测井曲线相结合。编制的同位素记录纳入了713个新样品数据和最近公布的剖面δ13Ccarb值,并通过半定量和定量丰度数据对68个样品进行了详细分析,支持了钙质纳米化石生物地层学。讨论了剖面生物层位记录的局部可信度及其超区域可靠性。这些包括指数物种的最高和最低发生率,但我们还批判性地评估了最高和最低一致发生率的地层利用以及分类单元顶点水平的基础和顶部。3个常用的地带性标记和2个亚地带性标记不可靠,但10个次要事件的相关性具有较高的可靠性。碳同位素地层学在宏观化石和微化石生物地层学的支持下,可以与欧洲其他地区,如英格兰东部的特朗奇、萨尔茨吉特-萨尔德和德国北部的Lägerdorf进行精确的对比。因此,我们的综合地层学方法可以更准确地评估生物分带方案和化学地层学。特别是,该研究为Coniacian、sanantonian和Campanian阶段边界的精细地层表达以及英格兰南部与全球层型剖面和点(gssp)的大规模对比提供了宝贵的资源。

A new genus of the family Ochteridae (Hemiptera: Nepomorpha), †Trichochterus gen. nov., is described from mid-Cretaceous, with two new species: †T. zhengi sp. nov. and †T. nieseri sp. nov. The new genus can be distinguished from other ochterids by its unique antennal structure and the first documented occurrence of trichobothrium-like setae within the family. Notably, the presence of trichobothria in velvety shore bugs represents a distinctive morphological feature, potentially reflecting ecological specialization in riparian or terrestrial habitats. Detailed morphological descriptions, supported by high-resolution photographs and illustrations, highlight the diagnostic characters of †Trichochterus gen. nov., such as the elongate rostrum, ridged frons, cursorial legs, and tarsal formula. An updated identification key and a comparative table are provided to facilitate the classification of all extant and fossil genera of Ochteridae. Furthermore, the phylogenetic placement of the newly established genus was assessed based on a morphological matrix.

Multi-proxy provenance study of sandstones from the northern Bohemian Cretaceous Basin (Germany, Czechia) focused on tourmaline, rutile and garnet 德国、捷克北部波西米亚白垩纪盆地砂岩多代物源研究重点为电气石、金红石和石榴石

The Kreibitz-Zittau area (northern margin of the Bohemian Massif, Czech-German border region) exposes a ∼1000-m-thick Cenomanian–middle Coniacian succession of quartz arenites with high compositional but low textural maturity. Translucent heavy minerals are almost exclusively composed of zircon, tourmaline and rutile (Ø-ZTR maturity index of 91) with tourmaline predominating (average of 60 %). Zr-in-rutile temperatures document upper amphibolite-eclogite to granulite facies between 700 and 930 °C. Cr/Nb discrimination of rutile and geochemistry of tourmaline indicate that >95 % of these grains originate from Al-rich and Fe–Mg-poor metapelites. U–Pb-ages of detrital rutile show a distinct peak at 320–330 Ma. If present, garnets of the almandine–pyrope series are dominant. The 95 % predominance of Variscan U–Pb rutile ages in all samples and the high/ultrahigh temperatures of metamorphism exclude the Neoproterozoic greywackes and granitoids of the Lusatian Massif and the granitoids of the Jizera–Krkonoše Massif in the northeast as sources. Potential proto source rocks were high-grade metamorphic rocks similar to those today exposed within the gneissic-migmatitic Góry Sowie Massif, ca. 120 km east of the depositional area. Since the late Devonian, this massif was uplifted, reaching the surface in late Carboniferous times. Consequently, the widespread Permo–Carboniferous Variscan molasse is the major sediment source for the Cretaceous sandstones, which thus were deposited during at least their 2nd sedimentary cycle. The study shows that integrated approaches combining careful petrography, heavy mineral analyses, mineral-specific geochemistry and thermometry as well as U–Pb age dating with high-resolution stratigraphy are suited to solve complex provenance puzzles.
Kreibitz-Zittau地区(捷克-德国边境波希米亚地块北缘)暴露出一套~ 1000 m厚的Cenomanian-middle Coniacian石英砂岩序列,其成分高,但结构成熟度低。半透明重矿物几乎完全由锆石、电气石和金红石组成(Ø-ZTR成熟度指数为91),电气石占主导地位(平均60%)。金红石中的锆温度记录了上部角闪岩-榴辉岩-麻粒岩相在700 ~ 930℃之间。金红石的Cr/Nb鉴别和电气石的地球化学特征表明,95%的金红石颗粒来源于富al和贫fe - mg的变长岩。金红石碎屑的u - pb年龄在320 ~ 330 Ma有明显的峰值。如果存在,则以铝榴石-欧榴石系列石榴石为主。所有样品中95%的Variscan U-Pb金红石年龄优势和变质作用的高/超高温排除了东北地区芦田地块和Jizera-Krkonoše地块新元古代灰岩和花岗岩类的来源。潜在的原始烃源岩是与今天暴露在沉积区以东约120公里处的片麻质-混染岩Góry Sowie地块内的高等级变质岩相似的岩石。自泥盆纪晚期起,该地块隆起,于石炭世晚期到达地表。因此,广泛分布的二叠-石炭系Variscan molasse是白垩纪砂岩的主要沉积物来源,因此至少在其第二次沉积旋回中沉积。研究表明,结合仔细的岩石学、重矿物分析、矿物特定地球化学和温度测量以及高分辨率地层学的U-Pb年龄定年的综合方法适合解决复杂的物源难题。

Cr/Nb discrimination of rutile and geochemistry of tourmaline indicate that &gt;95 % of these grains originate from Al-rich and Fe–Mg-poor metapelites. U–Pb-ages of detrital rutile show a distinct peak at 320–330 Ma. If present, garnets of the almandine–pyrope series are dominant. The 95 % predominance of Variscan U–Pb rutile ages in all samples and the high/ultrahigh temperatures of metamorphism exclude the Neoproterozoic greywackes and granitoids of the Lusatian Massif and the granitoids of the Jizera–Krkonoše Massif in the northeast as sources. Potential proto source rocks were high-grade metamorphic rocks similar to those today exposed within the gneissic-migmatitic Góry Sowie Massif, ca. 120 km east of the depositional area. Since the late Devonian, this massif was uplifted, reaching the surface in late Carboniferous times. Consequently, the widespread Permo–Carboniferous Variscan molasse is the major sediment source for the Cretaceous sandstones, which thus were deposited during at least their 2nd sedimentary cycle. The study shows that integrated approaches combining careful petrography, heavy mineral analyses, mineral-specific geochemistry and thermometry as well as U–Pb age dating with high-resolution stratigraphy are suited to solve complex provenance puzzles.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":55207,"journal":{"name":"Cretaceous Research","volume":"177 ","pages":"Article 106203"},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2026-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144722251","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Histopathology plays a fundamental role in the detailed analysis of various pathologies, as it allows for diagnosing diseases through microscopic examination of the affected tissues. These studies on Mesozoic marine reptiles are scarce, and almost non-existent in plesiosaurs. Here, two elasmosaurid plesiosaur specimens were examined: specimen MLP-PV 93-I-5-1, recovered from the lower Maastrichtian Snow Hill Island Formation (Vega Island, Antarctica), and specimen MML-PV 5, retrieved from the upper Maastrichtian Jagüel Formation (Salinas de Trapalcó, Río Negro). To obtain the histological sections, a fragmented rib was selected from the first specimen; and a transverse process, dorsal rib, and phalanx were chosen from the second. Pathological bone callus was observed on the rib sections of MLP-PV 93-I-5-1. Periosteal growth perpendicular to the long axis of the bone was observed on the transverse process, dorsal rib, and phalanx sections of MML-PV 5. The characteristics observed in specimen MLP-PV 93-I-5-1 are consistent with the diagnosis of a healing fracture. The characteristics observed in specimen MML-PV 5 are indicative of periostitis. Based on the histopathological study of the two elasmosaurid specimens, it was possible to identify abnormal internal variations in bone tissue and determine that both pathologies developed during the life of the elasmosaurids.
组织病理学在各种病理的详细分析中起着基本的作用,因为它允许通过显微镜检查受影响的组织来诊断疾病。这些关于中生代海洋爬行动物的研究很少,关于蛇颈龙的研究几乎没有。本文研究了两个依拉丝模龙蛇颈龙标本,分别是来自马斯特拉赫特下雪山岛组(Vega Island, Antarctica)的MLP-PV 93- i -5和来自马斯特拉赫特上部jag el组(Salinas de Trapalcó, Río Negro)的MML-PV 5。为了获得组织学切片,从第一个标本中选择了一根破碎的肋骨;而横突,背肋骨和指骨则是从第二处选取的。MLP-PV 93-I-5-1肋骨切片可见病理性骨痂形成。在MML-PV 5的横突、背肋和指骨切片上观察到垂直于骨长轴的骨膜生长。在标本MLP-PV 93-I-5-1中观察到的特征与骨折愈合的诊断一致。在标本MML-PV 5中观察到的特征表明骨膜炎。根据对这两种骨模龙标本的组织病理学研究,可以识别出骨组织的异常内部变异,并确定这两种病理都是在骨模龙的一生中发展起来的。

A new integrated age model of the uppermost Albian to Coniacian Ajlun Group in West-Central Jordan is presented based on four complete outcrop sections along a ∼124 km N–S transect. Carbon isotope curves from this work are integrated with published carbon isotope data and constrained by new and existing nannofossil and ammonite biostratigraphy. Key identified carbon isotope events include the Mid-Cenomanian Event 1 (MCE 1), the Oceanic Anoxic Event 2 (OAE 2) at the Cenomanian/Turonian boundary and the Pewsey Event in the middle Turonian. The findings of this study corroborate and revise previous chemostratigraphic definitions in the study area, while also demonstrating a coeval origin of different lithostratigraphic units within the Ajlun Group. On the Arabian Plate scale, a detailed (3rd order) sequence stratigraphic correlation is made between Jordan and time-equivalent strata from the well-studied Natih Formation in Oman. These correlations help to evaluate the relative contributions of eustasy and tectonics on different plate tectonic settings, since the northeastern and eastern margins were heavily influenced by tectonic processes associated with the closure of the Neo-Tethys Ocean. In Oman, the creation of increased accommodation space (ca. 40 m) is observed relative to Jordan commencing in the interval between the MCE 1 and OAE 2. This suggests the onset of tectonic precursor events in Oman during the middle to late Cenomanian interval before the main tectonic phase in the Turonian, resulting in the termination of shallow water carbonate deposition. In contrast, Jordan remained in a largely passive margin setting.
基于沿N-S ~ 124 km的4个完整的露头剖面,提出了约旦中西部阿尔卑统至Coniacian Ajlun群的一个新的综合年龄模型。碳同位素曲线与已发表的碳同位素数据相结合,并受到新的和现有的纳米化石和菊石生物地层学的限制。关键的碳同位素事件包括Cenomanian Event 1 (MCE 1)、Cenomanian/Turonian边界的Oceanic缺氧Event 2 (OAE 2)和Turonian mid的Pewsey Event。本研究的发现证实和修正了研究区以往的化学地层学定义,同时也证明了阿基伦群内不同岩石地层单元的形成是同时期的。在阿拉伯板块尺度上,对约旦与阿曼Natih组时间等效地层进行了详细的(三级)层序地层对比。这些相关性有助于评估不同板块构造背景下的地壳运动和构造的相对贡献,因为东北和东部边缘受到与新特提斯洋闭合相关的构造过程的严重影响。在阿曼,与约旦相比,在MCE 1和OAE 2之间的间隔开始增加了住宿空间(约40米)。这表明阿曼的构造前驱事件发生在塞诺曼期中晚期,早于Turonian期主构造期,导致浅水碳酸盐岩沉积终止。相比之下,约旦在很大程度上处于被动的边缘地位。

The hybodont shark (Elasmobranchii, Hybodontiformes) material from the Campanian of two non-marine localities in southern France are described. Some teeth and a dorsal fin spine from the upper Campanian of Velaux are assigned to the genus Meristodonoides (Hybodontidae), whereas a single tooth from the lower Campanian of Villeveyrac is referred to Parvodus (Lonchidiidae), a genus hitherto unknown in the Upper Cretaceous. Among the latest Cretaceous continental ichthyofaunas of the European archipelago, hybodont sharks may have been minor relictual components with spatially restricted distributions, as suggested by their scarcity in the fossil assemblages from France and Romania combined with their apparent absence in other areas (Iberian Peninsula, Hungary).

Sea-level and paleoenvironmental changes revealed by benthic foraminifera across Oceanic Anoxic Event 2 (OAE 2) at Eastbourne (SE England) 英国伊斯特本海洋缺氧事件2 (OAE 2)中底栖有孔虫揭示的海平面和古环境变化
IF 1.7 3区 地球科学 Q1 GEOLOGY Pub Date : 2026-01-01 Epub Date: 2025-07-19 DOI: 10.1016/j.cretres.2025.106204

The Cenomanian–Turonian Oceanic Anoxic Event 2 (OAE 2) severely disrupted the global carbon cycle with widespread deposition of organic-rich marine sediments, resulting in a positive carbon isotope excursion. The Eastbourne section in southeastern England offers extensive benthic and planktonic foraminiferal data, revealing four distinct paleoenvironmental intervals across OAE 2.
The Grey Chalk interval below OAE 2, which is characterized by the highest species diversity of benthic foraminifera, represents outer neritic-upper bathyal paleodepths, oxygenated environments and low organic fluxes at the seafloor. Deep- and thermocline-dwelling planktonic foraminifera suggest meso-oligotrophic regimes with a well-stratified water column.
The onset of OAE 2 in Bed 1a of the Plenus Marl is marked by a sea-level fall supported by the maximum peak in abundance of shallow water agglutinated foraminifera (Ataxophragmium depressum, Arenobulimina, Plectina cenomana) and by the disappearance of bathyal taxa (e.g., Tristix excavata, Kalamopsis grzybowsky).
In Bed 1b of the Plenus Marl, corresponding to the onset of the Plenus Cold Event, Eggerellina, Gaudryina, and Textularia replace shallow agglutinated taxa indicating a transgressive phase. This assemblage also coincides with the occurrence of Boreal planktonic foraminifera that suggests the incursion of Boreal waters into the Anglo-Paris Basin.
The White Chalk, in the upper part and the interval above OAE 2, is interpreted as a Transgressive and Highstand Systems Tract with a change in the benthic foraminiferal assemblage towards the dominance of Marssonella, Gavelinella, Lingulogavelinella and Tritaxia with warmer and more mesotrophic waters recorded by the dominance of Tethyan planktonic foraminifera.
Cenomanian-Turonian Oceanic Anoxic Event 2 (OAE 2)严重破坏了全球碳循环,富有机质海洋沉积物广泛沉积,导致碳同位素正偏移。英格兰东南部的伊斯特本剖面提供了广泛的底栖生物和浮游有孔虫数据,揭示了OAE 2中四个不同的古环境区间。OAE 2以下的灰色白垩层段是底栖有孔虫物种多样性最高的层段,代表了浅海-上深海古深度、含氧环境和海底低有机通量。生活在深海和温坡的浮游有孔虫表明具有分层良好的水柱的中贫营养状态。在Plenus marle 1a层,OAE 2的发生以海平面下降为标志,而海平面下降是由浅水聚集有孔虫(Ataxophragmium洼地,Arenobulimina, Plectina cenomana)丰度的最大峰值支撑的,而深海分类群(如Tristix excavata, Kalamopsis grzybowsky)的消失为标志。在正珥海泥沼1b层,与正珥冷事件的发生相对应,Eggerellina、Gaudryina和texularia取代了浅层凝集类群,显示了海侵期。这种组合也与北方浮游有孔虫的出现相吻合,这表明北方水域侵入了盎格鲁-巴黎盆地。在OAE 2的上部和以上区间,White Chalk被解释为海侵和高水位系统域,底栖有孔虫组合向Marssonella、Gavelinella、Lingulogavelinella和Tritaxia为主变化,并且以特提斯浮游有孔虫为主,记录了更温暖和更多的中营养化水域。
