A new Lower Triassic ichthyopterygian assemblage from Fossil Hill, Nevada.
We report a new ichthyopterygian assemblage from Lower Triassic horizons of the Prida Formation at Fossil Hill in central Nevada. Although fragmentary, the specimens collected so far document a diverse fauna. One partial jaw exhibits isodont dentition with blunt tipped, mesiodistally compressed crowns and striated enamel. These features are shared with the Early Triassic genus Utatsusaurus know...

متن کاملA New Specimen of Carroll’s Mystery Hupehsuchian from the Lower Triassic of China
A new specimen of an enigmatic hupehsuchian genus is reported. The genus was first recognized by Robert L. Carroll and Zhi-ming Dong in 1991, who refrained from naming it because of the poor quality of the only specimen known at the time. After more than two decades, we finally report a second specimen of this genus, which remained unprepared until recently. The new specimen preserves most of t...
متن کاملKatbergia Gen. Nov., a New Trace Fossil from Upper Permian and Lower Triassic Rocks of the Karoo Basin: Implications for Palaeoenvironmental Conditions at the P ⁄tr Extinction Event
A new ichnogenus and ichnospecies of burrow, Katbergia carltonichnus, are described from Upper Permian and Lower Triassic rocks of the Karoo Basin, South Africa, where they are preserved in pedogenically modified overbank deposits that are interpreted as inceptisols subsequently gleysol overprinted. Sigmoidal burrows consist of a long (‡0.5 m) cylindrical tube, ranging from 1–2 cm in diameter, ...
