The Neogene of Kutch, India is well known for its rich marine and terrestrial vertebrate assemblages. However, the data piscean fauna from middle Miocene very scarce. We report here additional chondrichthyan osteichthyan remains deposit Chhasra Formation, Palasava site, Gujarat, India. elasmobranchs include Carcharhinus Blainville, 1816 (C. brevipinna (Müller & Henle, 1839), C. falciformis ...

This study was conducted for palynological investigation of recent deposits from east Isfahan in order to reconstruct past environmental conditions of this region. Segzi area is located in 30 km east Isfahan and Rangideh area is 65 km in south east Isfahan. In these areas it was seen, in depth of soil profile, dark layers containing organic matters. Soil samples were taken from five points and ...

Coastal landscapes are sensitive to changes due the interplay between surface and submarine geological processes, climate variability, relative sea level fluctuations. The sedimentary archives of such marginal areas record in detail complex evolution paleoenvironment diachronic biota response. Elefsis Bay is nowadays a landlocked shallow marine basin with restricted communication open Saronikos...

Palynofacies analyses of the strata penetrated by TTtex-1 Well were carried out with aim investigating stratigraphic sequence to establish palynostratigraphic zones, relative age and paleoenvironment deposition. Sixty-two ditch cutting samples within interval 2179 – 3523 m analyzed. The use acid in sample preparation for palynofacies used. result produced relatively low abundant occurrences pol...

The fossiliferous middle Eocene deposits of Sylhet Limestone Mikir Hills have yielded vertebrate and invertebrate faunas. fossil assemblages recorded in this contribution consist shark, ray, crocodile, conical tooth, broken fragments echinoderm spines. Ray crocodile tooth are reporting for the first time from Hills. Paleoenvironmental analysis based on fish assemblage association with (foramini...

We report new avian remains from the early Eocene Nanjemoy Formation of Fisher/Sullivan site in Virginia, USA. The fossil material includes first records Messelasturidae, Psittacopedidae, and Zygodactylidae Formation, with these taxa being widespread fairly common coeval North American European sites. Psittacopedidae are stem group representatives Passeriformes, a tibiotarsus assigned to is unu...

Stationarity of species’ ecological tolerances is a first-order assumption paleoenvironmental reconstruction based upon analog methods. To test this and other assumptions used in quantitative analysis foraminiferal faunas for paleoceanographic reconstruction, we analyzed paired alkenone unsaturation ratio (U37K′) sea surface temperature (SST) estimates relative abundances planktic foraminifera ...
