Australian Marsupial Carnivores: Recent Advances in Palaeontology
Over the last two decades, the study of new fossil material has yielded major insights into the evolution of Australia's marsupial carnivores. This material includes the first complete or nearcomplete crania for Tertiary representatives of Dasyuridae, Thylacinidae and Propleopinae (Hypsiprymnodontidae), as well as the first skulls known for the thylacoleonid genera, Priscileo and Wakaleo. Also ...
متن کاملMolecular Palaeontology

However, in a more restricted sense, molecular palaeontology is the study of complex organic molecules made by once-living organisms. In some ...
متن کاملPalaeontology: The New Conservative
Cambrian Orsten-type fossils have yielded specimens with a uniquely detailed morphology from the early stages of animal evolution. A newly discovered crustacean larva illustrates how morphology and lifestyle over half a billion years ago closely resembled those of extant relatives.
متن کاملPalaeontology: Turtles in Transition
One of the major remaining gaps in the vertebrate fossil record concerns the origin of turtles. The enigmatic little reptile Eunotosaurus could represent an important transitional form, as it has a rudimentary shell that resembles the turtle carapace.
متن کاملRecent advances in Chinese palaeontology.
Discoveries are a driving force for progress in palaeontology. Palaeontology as a discipline of scientific inquiry has gained many fresh insights into the history of life, from the discoveries of many new fossils in China in the last 20 years, and from the new ideas derived from these fossils. This special issue of Proceedings of Royal Society B entitled Recent Advances in Chinese Palaeontology...
