Massive salt accumulations, or salt giants, have formed in highly restricted marine basins
throughout geological history, but their impact on biodiversity has been only patchily studied …

The fossil record of marine ray-finned fishes (Actinopterygii) from the time interval
surrounding the Cretaceous–Paleogene (K–Pg) extinction is scarce at a global scale …

The global body-fossil record of marine 'fishes' from the time interval immediately preceding
the Cretaceous–Paleogene Extinction is markedly poor. This deficiency appears to be …

Research interest in the diversity and evolutionary history of herring-like fossils (subcohort
Clupei) has increased in recent decades. However, little is known about the relationships …

The family Latidae is considered to have originated in marine waters of the Tethys, and the
fossil record of this group indicates a widespread occurrence of latid fishes in the past. In the …

We describe four new species of the fossil genus Dapalis (Ambassidae), Dapalis
absconditus sp. nov., Dapalis octospinus sp. nov., Dapalis parvus sp. nov. and Dapalis …

This archaeological note proposes that the animal skull appearing on the Hesione Vase
(Museum of Fine Arts Boston 63.420) and often identified as a Miocene giraffid belongs to …

From the many post-Oligocene basins in Greece that contain vertebrate fossils, we focus on
three major basins with their accompanied minor ones, which present synthetic and …

Much remains to be learned about the past diversity and evolutionary history of the
Clupeidae (herrings, shads and allies), owing to the frequently subtle differences between …

In vier Artikeln in Nature wurden im Herbst 2022 gleich fünf verschiedene fossile Fischarten
aus dem unteren Silur vorgestellt, die im südwestlichen China (Chongqing bzw. Leijiatun) …
