Located in northern Peru, at the lowest segment of Central Andes, Bagua Basin contains a Campanian to Pleistocene sedimentary record that archives local paleoenvironmental and tectonic history. We present new ?18O ?13C signatures pedogenic carbonate nodules from paleosols Campanian–Maastrichtian Fundo El Triunfo Formation upper Eocene–middle Miocene Sambimera reconstruct isotopic composition pa...

New material of the derived baenid turtle Boremys pulchra from Hell Creek Formation Montana extends stratigraphic range taxon through at minimum latest Maastrichtian. Previously, species was constrained to Campanian and Alberta, so this extension constitutes least 5 million years. Due fossil reworking Bug Anthills assemblage, where Maastrichtian Paleocene deposits are mixed, a definitive for B....

Here we report multiple lamniform shark teeth recovered from fluvial sediments in the (Campanian-Maastrichtian) Cerro Fortaleza Formation, Santa Cruz Province, Argentina. This small tooth assemblage is compared to various lamniform sharks possessing similar dental morphologies, including Archaeolamna, Cretalamna, Dwardius, Dallasiella, and Cretodus. Although the teeth share numerous morphologic...

The late Campanian-early Maastrichtian site of Lo Hueco (Cuenca, Spain) has provided a set of well-preserved crocodyliform skull and lower jaw remains, which are described here and assigned to a new basal eusuchian taxon, Lohuecosuchus megadontos gen. et sp. nov. The reevaluation of a complete skull from the synchronous site of Fox-Amphoux (Department of Var, France) allows us to define a secon...

The palynofacies and kerogen analysis of the Upper Cretaceous units (Campanian-Maastrichtian) of the Anambra Basin, Southeastern Nigeria was carried out in the studied area. Two major palynofacies types were identified based on the abundance of particulate organic matter. The palynofacies ―A‖ is characterized by abundant phytoclasts, frequent opaqes common amorphous organic matter and carbon to...

Levnesovia transoxiana gen. et sp. nov., from the Late Cretaceous (Middle-Late Turonian) of Uzbekistan, is the oldest well-documented taxon referable to Hadrosauroidea sensu Godefroit et al. It differs from a somewhat younger and closely related Bactrosaurus from Inner Mongolia (China) by a tall sagittal crest on the parietals and the absence of club-shaped dorsal neural spines in adult specime...

On the basis of stratigraphic ranges reported calcareous nannfossils for several species, two sections Shiranish Formation from Hiran in Erbil Governorate and Smaqoli area Sulaimaniya Governorate, Northern Iraq, are analyzed. Four biozones visible examined region, grouped as follows oldest to youngest: Uniplanarius gothicus Interval zone; Tranolithus phacelosus Rienhardtites lives Micula murus ...

The South-Pyrenean Basin (northeastern Spain) has yielded a rich and diverse record of Upper Cretaceous (uppermost Campanian−uppermost Maastrichtian) vertebrate fossils, including the remains some last European dinosaurs prior to Cretaceous-Paleogene (K-Pg) extinction event. In this work, we update characterize fossil Arén Sandstone Tremp formations in Western Syncline, which is located Aragone...

New data on the ammonite genus Pseudokossmaticeras Spath, 1922 have been obtained from several uppermost Campanian–lower Maastrichtian strata of Fore-Balkan Mountains (Bulgaria). A review earlier Bulgarian records is also presented. The following species are here described and illustrated: brandti (Redtenbacher, 1873), P. galicianum (Favre, 1869), muratovi Michailov, 1951 tercense (Seunes, 1892...
