• Sr-isotope stratigraphy of fossiliferous marine deposits in northern Borneo. Burdigalian to Tortanian ages revealed for thirteen fossil-rich shallow deposits. Origin reworked specimens could be traced by the obtained SIS ages. Trace element and stable isotope chemistry well-preserved shells can linked habitat-conditions. Altered recrystallized helped tracing diagenetic pathways. Neogene North...

The Cenozoic Malaguide Basin from Sierra Espuña (Internal Betic Zone, S Spain) due to the quality of outcropping, areal representation, and continuity in sedimentation can be considered a key-basin. In last 30 years, large number studies with very different methodological approaches have been done area. Models indicate an evolution passive margin wedge-top basin Late Cretaceous Early Miocene. S...

Fossil turtles from Mokrá-Quarry, South Moravia Region, Czech Republic, are described in this paper. Remains come two already known karstic fissures uncovered Mokrá-Western Quarry (1/2001 Turtle Joint and 2/2003 Reptile Joint), as well three new (TC/2001 4/2018) Mokrá-Central (3/2005). All localities correspond to the early Miocene (Burdigalian: late Eggenburgian-Ottnangian MN4). The newly mate...

Abstract We report about the Early Miocene Tagay fauna of Olkhon Island, largest island Baikal Lake. The is high scientific importance because diversity fishes, amphibians, lizards, snakes, turtles, manifold birds and mammals. lithology, geochemistry fossil record along Tagay-1 section allow reconstruction various palaeoenvironments, i.e. open water, shallow lakes with adjacent wetlands, riveri...

The palynological analysis in the Karpatian–Sarmatian (late Early-Middle Miocene) interval of the cores Tengelic-2 and Hidas53 (Hungary) reveals the existence of a forest organized in altitudinal belts, developed in a subtropical–warm temperate humid climate, reflecting the so-called Miocene climatic optimum. Pollen changes from the late early Miocene to the late middle Miocene have been observ...

The position of Turkey between Europe and Asia makes this region interesting for palaeobotanical investigations. We investigated plant macrofossils from early Miocene deposits W (Soma, Manisa) compiled a catalogue revised new taxa. documented 100 fossil-taxa, which several are (Mahonia aff. pseudosimplex, Ziziphus paradisiaca, Comptonia longirostris, Carya denticulata, Viscum, Fatsia, Pungiphyl...

Carbonate clumped isotope thermometry is based on the ordering of 13C and 18O in carbonate lattice relative abundance 13C18O16O CO2 produced through acid digestion minerals. The major advantage this technique its non-dependency δ18O value water from which precipitated. Ghosh et al. (2007, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.gca.2007.03.015) previously published calibration data for fish otoliths referenc...

This research focusses on the biostratigraphy and paleoecological implications of the carbonatesof the Asmari Formation. The Asmari Formation is located in the Siah Kuhanticline of Izeh, Zagros Basin, SW Iran. It is of Late Oligocene (Chattian) - Early Miocene (Burdigalian) age. In this stratigraphic section, the Asmari Formation overlies the Pabdeh Formation and underlies the Gachsaran Formati...

Anthracotheres are generally considered to have gone extinct in Europe at the end of early Miocene (summit MN 4 base 5, Burdigalian) whereas they persisted Africa until latest and India into Pleistocene. However, 1910, Stehlin described an anthracothere upper molar a fragment maxilla, reported be from Monte Massi (Casteani) Italy (late -Turolian): Anthracotherium (?) meneghinii but its affiniti...
