Background Taphonomic study of marine vertebrate remains has traditionally focused on single skeletons, lagerstätten, or bonebed genesis with few attempts to document …
Abstract U-Pb, Lu-Hf and O isotope data were obtained on detrital zircons from late Paleozoic-early Mesozoic units from White Column, Paraná Basin, southeastern Brazil, in …
Abstract The early Permian Irati Formation is well known for its black shale oil and gas reserves and its widespread lateral correlation throughout the entire Paraná Basin. This unit …
In addition to the study of sedimentary facies, the reconstruction of paleoenvironments depends on a detailed understanding of the taphonomy of a fossil accumulation. The …
The environmental characterization of the Lower Permian mesosaur-bearing strata of the Mangrullo Formation (Paraná Basin, northeastern Uruguay) has been controversial …
The Early Permian mesosaurids are the oldest known aquatic amniotes with an exclusively Gondwanan distribution. Although several hundred of complete skeletons have been …
Anoxic to dysoxic conditions must have existed in the Paraná Basin during the deposition of the Permian oil-bearing shales of the Irati Formation, reflecting the marine isolation of the …
