The Meillon (Callovo-Oxfordian) and Mano (Tithonian) Formations are dolomitized carbonate reservoirs that actively produce oil gas (Aquitaine Basin, France). In this study, the dolomitization conditions of their counterparts exhumed in northwestern Pyrenees detailed using a combination field observations, petrography, fluid inclusion microthermometry, elemental isotopic geochemistry, U–Pb geoch...

Here we present LM and SEM data of pollen extant Sciadopitys verticillata, fossil Cerebropollenites from Aptian/Albian strata (Austria, Mongolia) Sciadopityspollenites Campanian/Maastrichtian Oligocene/Miocene (Siberia, Germany). Measurements image comparisons show that the investigated taxa range somewhat comparable to very similar a previous affiliation with Tsuga cannot be corroborated. Addi...

Reexamination of the type material of Squilla? kiowana Scott, 1970 and study of additional specimens of the same taxon indicates that it is a mecochirid decapod referable to a new genus, Huhatanka. This assignment brings to five the number of North American species referable to the Mecochiridae.
