Un nuevo suido con dientes yugales tubulidentados e hipselorrizos del Mioceno inferior de Córcoles, España
2018
[EN] Excavations at Córcoles, Guadalajara, Spain (MN 4) in October 1987, yielded a mandible and several isolated teeth of a strange suiform with tubulidentate cheek teeth, initially interpreted to be the remains of Tubulidentata. The specimens are complete enough to remove any doubt about which Order (Artiodactyla) and Superfamily (Suoidea) they belong to. They are here attributed to the Family Doliochoeridae, being related to the genera Bransatochoerus (MP 30) and Lorancahyus (MN 2) both of which have hypsorhizic cheek teeth, the latter with tubules in the teeth, but not to the fully-expressed extent seen in the fossils from Córcoles and the molars retain a distinct and large pulp cavity, …
Presence of Naraoia Walcott, 1912 in the middle Cambrian of Europe (Murero, NE Spain).
2018
Este artículo se encuentra disponible en la página web de la revista en la siguiente URL: http://sepaleontologia.es/revista/anteriores/SJP%20(2018)%20vol.%2033/vol.%201/04.pdf The genus Naraoia Walcott, 1912, a Burgess Shale-type fossil known from the lower and middle Cambrian of British Columbia (Canada), Idaho and Utah (USA), as well as from Yunnan and Guizhou provinces (China), is now reported from the middle Cambrian of Murero (Zaragoza, Spain), which is the first record in the Acadobaltic province. The only fragmented specimen found is determined as Naraoia sp., its age being Pardailhania multispinosa Zone (Drumian Stage). This new datum reinforces the hypothesis of the existence of a …

Productidinid brachiopods (Strophomenata, Productida), including Martinezchaconia luisae, new genus and new species of Linoproductidae, from the Carb…
2018
We describe three brachiopod species of the Suborder Productidina from the Ixtaltepec Formation, Carboniferous of the north of Oaxaca State, southern Mexico, found in peri-reef deposits. Stegacanthia bowsheri and Undaria sp. are members of the families Sentosiidae and Monticuliferidae respectively and were found in strata of the Visean (Middle Mississippian). Martinezchaconia luisae, new genus and species of the Family Linoproductidae, was recollected in Bashkirian-Moscovian (Lower-Middle Pennsylvanian) strata. The respective ages are inferred from the index species of brachiopods associated with the productidines herein described.
Rare Middle and Upper Devonian dalmanelloid (Orthida) of the Cantabrian Mountains, N Spain
2018
Rare Cantabrian Dalmanellidae ( Costisorthis lisae nov. sp.), Dicoelosiidae ( Teichertina cf. peregrina , T. cf. ?tzroyensis ), and Mystrophoridae ( Mystrophora sp., Biernatium suco i nov. sp., and Biernatium sp. 2) are described and ?gured for the ? rst time in Spain. Most of them are scarce forms that occur only in certain localities. All the species but one came from the lower part of the Portilla (province of Leon) and Candas (province of Asturias) formations, Faunal Interval 21, Polygnathus rhenanus/P. varcus conodont zone, middle Givetian. The exception is Biernatium sp. 2 that occurs in Asturias in FI 25, Pineres Fm., Palmatolepis transitans zone, lower Frasnian. Costisorthis ranges …
The Phycosiphon record in the Ladrilleros-Juanchaco section (Miocene, Colombian Pacific): palaeoecological implications
2018
Miocene rocks of the Ladrilleros-Juanchaco section, located on the NW margin of South America, contain a high diverse and abundant trace fossil assemblage. The relative abundance of Phycosiphon, together with its morphological variations, provides new insights into the environmental conditions. Detailed outcrop stratigraphic, ichnological, and geochemical analyses carried out in the section focused on the trace fossil assemblages (distribution, relative abundance), ichnofabric index, and, especially, in the general ichnological features of Phycosiphon . In addition, the detailed photographic documentation and the use of the digital image treatment technique facilitate the precise study of …
