The Carbon Isotope Organic Geochemistry of Early Ordovician Rocks from the Annascaul Formation, County Kerry
Ireland is well known to geologists as containing some of the thickest successions of Early Ordovician (485!470 Ma; Walker et al. 2012) sedimentary rocks in the world. The carbon stable isotope compositions (dC value) of similarly aged rocks have been reported for only very few places in the world (i.e., Argentina, southern China, and southern France), and no such analyses have been performed o...
متن کاملThe earliest-known duck-billed dinosaur from deposits of late Early Cretaceous age in northwest China and hadrosaur evolution
A new dinosaur of Early Cretaceous age was recently discovered in the Gobi Desert of northwest China. It is more closely related to Late Cretaceous hadrosaurids than to Early Cretaceous iguanodontids. It occupies the most basal position in the phylogeny of all duck-billed dinosaurs, or the Hadrosauroidea. This early hadrosauroid sheds new light on the origin of the herbivorous feeding specializ...
متن کاملStatus of Rocks in the Law of the Sea with Relying on the South China Sea Arbitration Award

Article 121(3) allocated to rocks has articulated briefly and without indicating any definitions or characters of this feature. Paragraph 3 provided two conditions for rocks in order to create exclusive economic zone and continental shelf zone. The South China Sea tribunal has interpreted this pa...
متن کاملThe earliest fossil record of Panorpidae (Mecoptera) from the Middle Jurassic of China
The early history of Panorpidae (Mecoptera) is poorly known due to sparse fossil records. Up to date, only nine fossil species have been described, all from the Paleogene, except the Early Cretaceous Solusipanorpa gibbidorsa Lin, 1980. However, we suggest S. gibbidorsa is too incompletely preserved to permit even family classification. A new genus with two new species, Jurassipanorpa impunctata...
متن کاملForever Love: The Hitherto Earliest Record of Copulating Insects from the Middle Jurassic of China
BACKGROUND Mating behaviors have been widely studied for extant insects. However, cases of mating individuals are particularly rare in the fossil record of insects, and most of them involved preservation in amber while only in rare cases found in compression fossils. This considerably limits our knowledge of mating position and genitalia orientation during the Mesozoic, and hinders our understa...
