An isolated limb bone from the upper Anisian interval of the Muschelkalk in Bavaria, Germany is the radius of a Dinodontosaurus-grade dicynodont. This is the third dicynodont bone documented from the German Muschelkalk, and it may indicate that Dinodontosaurus records are not strictly Ladinian in age, but could also be

Mid-diaphyseal cortical bone tissue in humeri of Nothosaurus spp. consists of coarse parallel-fibered bone, finer and higher organized parallel-fibered bone, and lamellar bone. Vascular canals are mainly arranged longitudinally and radially in a dominantly radial system. Blood vessels are represented by simple vascular canals, incompletely lined primary osteons, and fully developed primary oste...

Empirical Calibration for Dolomite Stoichiometry Calculation: Application on Triassic Muschelkalk-Lettenkohle Carbonates (French Jura) — This study concerns an approach for dolomite quantification and stoichiometry calculation by using X-ray diffractometry coupled with cell and Rietveld refinements and equipped with a newly substantial database of dolomite composition. A greater accuracy and pr...

En el Triásico del sector central de la Cordillera Bética se pueden diferenciar, a grandes rasgos, tres tipos facies litológicas: carbonatos (facies Muschelkalk), terrígenos Keuper), evaporitas Keuper). El estudio varios afloramientos en este área ha supuesto un mayor conocimiento los aspectos paleoecológicos Trías, y permitido revisión bioestratigráfica las series. tramo carbonatado, registro ...

Crinoids, members of the phylum Echinodermata, are passive suspension feeders and catch plankton without producing an active feeding current. Today, the stalked forms are known only from deep water habitats, where flow conditions are rather constant and feeding velocities relatively low. For feeding, they form a characteristic parabolic filtration fan with their arms recurved backwards into the...
