Durante el Triásico la Península lbérica formaba parte del extremo más occidental Tethys. En los sedimentos Medio-Superior (Anisiense-Noriense) de las Cordilleras Ibérica, Catalana y Béticas externas (Prebético Subbético) se pue­den diferenciar, en ocasiones, hasta tres niveles carbonatados: Muschelkalk inferior (Anisiense), superior (Ladi­niense) Dolomías Formación Imón (Noriense), algunas int...

The Middle Triassic (Ladinian) deposits of the Catalan Basin (Spain) are essentially represented by extensive marine carbonate platforms developed in a rift tectonic setting. During Ladinian, regional sea-level drop led to significant paleogeographic reorganisation depocentres eastern Iberia producing relevant shift distribution sedimentary environments. To better calibrate age correlative conf...

Abstract Horseshoe crabs (Xiphosura) have a long evolutionary history starting in the Ordovician, but they rarely been reported from Netherlands. We report on first Triassic horseshoe crab Netherlands identifiable to species level, specimen of limulid Limulitella bronnii . provide diagnosis for this and refigure holotype. The new was found Middle (Anisian) Muschelkalk sediments Vossenveld Forma...

UV light-induced fluorescence is widely used as a key to reveal residual shell colour patterns of Neogene and Palaeogene molluscs. However, only few examples fluorescent are known from Mesozoic marine shells little about the nature in fossils. Here, reveals previously unseen abundance diversity basal pectinid Pleuronectites laevigatus Middle Triassic Muschelkalk Central Europe. In addition vari...
