A New Non-Pterodactyloid Pterosaur from the Late Jurassic of Southern Germany
BACKGROUND The 'Solnhofen Limestone' beds of the Southern Franconian Alb, Bavaria, southern Germany, have for centuries yielded important pterosaur specimens, most notably of the genera Pterodactylus and Rhamphorhynchus. Here we describe a new genus of non-pterodactyloid pterosaur based on an extremely well preserved fossil of a young juvenile: Bellubrunnus rothgaengeri (gen. et sp. nov.). ME...
متن کاملTemporal patterns in disparity and diversity of the Jurassic ammonoids of southern Germany
Morphology represents an important tool in descriptive and analytical biology and particularly in palaeontology. Whereas early studies concentrated on qualitative description of morphological characters, there was a transition in the early 20th century leading to analytical approaches with quantitative elements (Thompson 1917; see also Bookstein 1998). This new exploratory focus called morphome...
متن کاملChanges in the phenology and composition of wine from Franconia, Germany
While the majority of the highest quality wine-producing regions in Western and Central Europe have benefitted from an increase in quality ratings due to climate change, traditional Franconian wine is in danger of losing its unique characteristics and its traditional spatial distribution. A long-term (1949 to 2010) study was made of reference vineyard observations in Lower Franconia, Germany. T...
متن کاملFauna and Predator-Prey Relationships of Ettling, an Actinopterygian Fish-Dominated Konservat-Lagerstätte from the Late Jurassic of Southern Germany
The newly recognized Konservat-Lagerstätte of Ettling (Bavaria), field site of the Jura-Museum Eichstätt (JME), is unique among Late Jurassic plattenkalk basins (Solnhofen region) in its abundant, extremely well preserved fossil vertebrates, almost exclusively fishes. We report actinopterygians (ginglymodins, pycnodontiforms, halecomorphs, aspidorynchiforms, "pholidophoriforms," teleosts); turt...
متن کاملMorphology and ontogeny of the Upper Jurassic mantis shrimp Spinosculda ehrlichi n. gen. n. sp. from southern Germany
We describe a new species and genus of Stomatopoda (mantis shrimps), Spinosculda ehrlichi n. gen. n. sp. from the Upper Jurassic Solnhofen Lithographic Limestones of southern Germany. The species is known from two fragmentary specimens that appear to represent different ontogenetic stages. Both specimens possess a pair of posteriorly projecting movable spines dorso-laterally on the tergite of t...
