the diversity, structure, evolution and activities of ancient fungi. However, interest in these …

Carbonaceous cherts in Proterozoic carbonate sequences provide an exceptionally clear
record of early microbial life, but one that is significantly biased with respect to the range of …

The late Early to early Middle Eocene Okanagan Highlands fossil sites, spanning∼ 1000 km
north–south (northeastern Washington State, southern British Columbia) provide an …

Fossil ectomycorrhizae were found recently among permineralized plant remains in the
middle Eocene Princeton chert of British Columbia. The ectomycorrhizae are associated …

The exceptional preservation of plant fossils falls into two categories: whole plant
preservation and anatomical detail. Whole plant preservation is controlled primarily by …

The biogeographic affinities of the Cretaceous and early Tertiary angiosperm floras of the
North American area (which includes Meso-America, and the Greater Antilles) have been …

Palynofloras from the middle Early to early Middle Eocene Okanagan Highlands (northern

Silicified peat is known from two sites in the central Transantarctic Mountains. Both are
within a 2-km-thick Permo-Triassic sandstone-shale sequence that was deposited by …

A unifying model is presented that explains most of the major changes seen in fossil
preservation and redox conditions across the Precambrian–Cambrian transition. It is …

Eocene lake environments of British Columbia, Canada, and Washington State, USA, are
reconstructed using assemblages of fishes, fish bones, scales, and coprolites. Assemblages …
