Aragonian stratigraphy reconsidered, and a re-evaluation of the middle Miocene mammal biochronology in Europe
The recently collected fauna of Armantes 1A in Chron C5Br of the Armantes section necessitates reinterpretation of the previous bioand magnetostratigraphical correlations between the Armantes and Vargas sections (Calatayud–Daroca Basin, Central Spain) [W. Krijgsman, M. Garcés, C.G. Langereis, R. Daams, J. van Dam, A.J. van der Meulen, J. Agustı́, L. Cabrera, A new chronology for the Middle to La...
متن کاملOligocene and early Miocene mammal biostratigraphy of the Valley of Lakes in Mongolia
The Taatsiin Gol Basin in Mongolia is a key area for understanding the evolution and dispersal of Central Asian mammal faunas during the Oligocene and early Miocene. After two decades of intense fieldwork, the area is extraordinarily well sampled and taxonomically well studied, yielding a large dataset of 19,042 specimens from 60 samples. The specimens represent 176 species-level and 99 genus-l...
متن کاملThe Application of Biostratigraphy and Paleoecology at Southern Ocean Drill Sites to Resolve Early to Middle Miocene Paleoclimatic Events
model ages for diatom biostratigraphic datum levels and new magnetic polarity data, which enables assessment of a nearly continuous record of paleoenvironmental change from ~20.25 to 13.75 Ma, and the dating of specific paleoenvironmental events identified in the diatom record. This study spans stratigraphically from the lowest occurrence of Thalassiosria spinosa var. aspinosa (~20.26 Ma) up to...
متن کاملEarly-Miocene Gastropods from Khavich Area, South of Sirjan, (Kerman, Iran): Biostratigraphy, Paleogeography and Paleoecology
A total of 12 species of marine gastropods, among which two taxa are new, is reported for the first time from the Miocene deposits of Khavich section, south of Sirjan, Kerman. Gastropods assemblage in Khavich area indicates deposition in shallow, warm ramp-type carbonate platform. The Miocene and even Oligocene gastropod assemblages, relatively similar to Khavich section, reported from the othe...
متن کاملMicro- and Small Vertebrate Biostratigraphy and Biochronology of the Upper Triassic Chinle Group, Southwestern Usa
A long-term goal of vertebrate biostratigraphers is to construct a microvertebrate biostratigraphy for lower Mesozoic rocks that complements and extends the mammal-based biostratigraphy in place for Upper Cretaceous-Recent deposits. Here we report substantial progress toward achieving this goal based on the distribution of microvertebrate fossils in the Upper Triassic Chinle Group of the wester...
