Abstract The Brazilian Intertropical Region (BIR) abounds with tank (natural reservoir)
deposits, a primary source of late Quaternary megafauna remains. However, most of these …

Fossiliferous natural tanks are a singular type of sedimentary deposit restricted to
northeastern Brazil, which usually preserves a diversified late Pleistocene vertebrate fauna …

The genus Neoglyptatelus Carlini, Vizcaíno and Scillato-Yané has been considered a
member of Glyptatelinae, a group encompassing the purportedly basal-most glyptodonts. It …

This research was intended to interpret, by means of several empirical bases, the quaternary
climate variabilities in the area of Fazenda Nova. The premise that guides the investigation …

Two genera of late Pleistocene Glyptodontinae have been referred for Northeastern Brazil:

Abstract Curimatãs Paleontological Site (CPS) preserved one of the most iconic fossil
assemblages of Late Pleistocene vertebrates of Brazil. Fossils were collected in a tank …

Paleoecological interpretations require detailed taphonomic analyses which can reveal how
fossil accumulations are related to the original site of life and death of organisms. In other …
