  • Chapter 1 - Introduction
    EURASIAN MIDDLE AND LATE MIOCENE HOMINOID PALEOBIOGEOGRAPHY AND THE GEOGRAPHIC ORIGINS OF THE HOMININAE by Mariam C. Nargolwalla A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Graduate Department of Anthropology University of Toronto © Copyright by M. Nargolwalla (2009) Eurasian Middle and Late Miocene Hominoid Paleobiogeography and the Geographic Origins of the Homininae Mariam C. Nargolwalla Doctor of Philosophy Department of Anthropology University of Toronto 2009 Abstract The origin and diversification of great apes and humans is among the most researched and debated series of events in the evolutionary history of the Primates. A fundamental part of understanding these events involves reconstructing paleoenvironmental and paleogeographic patterns in the Eurasian Miocene; a time period and geographic expanse rich in evidence of lineage origins and dispersals of numerous mammalian lineages, including apes. Traditionally, the geographic origin of the African ape and human lineage is considered to have occurred in Africa, however, an alternative hypothesis favouring a Eurasian origin has been proposed. This hypothesis suggests that that after an initial dispersal from Africa to Eurasia at ~17Ma and subsequent radiation from Spain to China, fossil apes disperse back to Africa at least once and found the African ape and human lineage in the late Miocene. The purpose of this study is to test the Eurasian origin hypothesis through the analysis of spatial and temporal patterns of distribution, in situ evolution, interprovincial and intercontinental dispersals of Eurasian terrestrial mammals in response to environmental factors. Using the NOW and Paleobiology databases, together with data collected through survey and excavation of middle and late Miocene vertebrate localities in Hungary and Romania, taphonomic bias and sampling completeness of Eurasian faunas are assessed.

Some material of a particular stratigraphic or taxonomic interest is described. T h e name Sus sondaari is introduced to replace the preoccupied name Sus nanus. Sardinia may have be- come an island during the Late Oligocene. Some of the Early Miocene taxa on Sardinia may have sur- vived there from the time when Sardinia was still connected with the main land, others arrived later to the island. Part of these taxa survived till the Late Miocene, when Sardinia (and Corsica) became con- nected to the island of Tu s c a n y. At this moment faunal exchange occurred between these areas. Some of the taxa known from the Baccinello area may have come from Sardinia.

The Amekchoud profile covers the Aït Ouglif and Aït Kandoula alluvial formations that form the bulk of the Ouarzazate basin fill, indicating an age between the upper Langhian and the Messinian (Miocene). Data obtained in the previously unexplored Hadida formation profile covers the oldest terms of the foreland basin succession, unfortunately the low quality of the magnetic record only allows proposing a tentative age between the middle Lutetian and an undetermined middle to late Eocene. The correlation of the Amekchoud profile is based on the recognition of the long C5n chron (Tortonian) in the middle part of the section studied and a new vertebrate locality of upper Tortonian age found in the upper part. These results indicate a discontinuous record of foreland basin development in the southern Atlas domain from mid Eocene to late Miocene times, punctuated by an intermediate large hiatus of 20-25 ma (late Eocene to mid Miocene).

SUMMARY Although there are various checklists of Italian mammals, there is not yet a synthesis of those mammals that are endemic to Italy. Therefore, we provide for the first time a detailed review on Italian mammal endemic species including endemic taxa deserving additional studies. This review is based on the most recent taxonomic revisions obtained using Scopus and Google Scholar databases. We also considered the age of endemic species. Some aspects of mammalian conservation are also provided and discussed. INTRODUCTION species of Italian mammals have been published, which also included the endemic species (e.g. The terrestrial world was sub-divided into 14 Amori et al. 1993, Amori et al. 1999). However, an biomes, and one of these corresponds to the exclusive work on endemic species has never been “Mediterranean Forest, Woodlands and Shrub” produced.

    Palaeontologia Electronica palaeo-electronica.org New data on Eulipotyphla (Insectivora, Mammalia) from the Late Miocene to the Middle Pleistocene of Ukraine Barbara Rzebik-Kowalska and Leonid I. Rekovets ABSTRACT Remains of Erinaceidae, Talpidae and Soricidae (Eulipotyphla, Mammalia) from eight localities are described: three (Popovo 3, MN11, Verkhnya Krynitsa 2, MN11/ MN12 and Lobkove, MN12) from the Late Miocene, two (Verkhnya Krynitsa 1, early MN16 and Popovo 2, late MN16) from the Pliocene, one (Popovo 1, MN16/MN17) from the Pliocene/Pleistocene boundary, one (Popovo 0, MN17) from the Early Pleistocene and one (Medzhybozh, Q3) from the early Middle Pleistocene. Short geological char- acteristics as well as local and stratigraphic positions were described. The list of insec- tivore species includes: Schizogalerix sp., cf. Mygalinia hungarica, Ruemkelia sp., Desmana sp., cf. Desmana sp., Miosorex grivensis, cf. Miosorex sp., Crusafontina cf. kormosi, cf. Asoriculus sp., Neomysorex alpinoides, Neomys newtoni, Petenyia dubia, Petenyia hungarica, cf. Beremendia minor, Beremendia fissidens, Zelceina sp. Both the abundance of insectivore remains and their taxonomic diversity vary among locali- ties. The most numerous and diverse assemblage (10 taxa of three families) is that of the Late Miocene Verkhnya Krynitsa 2. The remaining seven localities yielded one to three species. The remains are described, measured and illustrated, and their system- atic positions and distributions are discussed. Barbara Rzebik-Kowalska. Institute of Systematics

  • Informal and Illegal Detention in Spain, Greece, Italy and Germany
    LOCKED UP AND EXCLUDED Informal and illegal detention in Spain, Greece, Italy and Germany LOCKED UP AND EXCLUDED 1 INFORMAL AND ILLEGAL DETENTION IN SPAIN, GREECE, ITALY AND GERMANY INTRODUCTION This report provides an overview of the use of administrative detention of non- nationals in four members-states of the European Union (EU). While three of those (Italy, Spain, Greece) are points of first arrival for people trying to reach Europe, the fourth one (Germany) is considered a destination country, which people reach by crossing borders internal to the Schengen Area. The way each of these four countries governs migration, including through the use of administrative detention, depends on their position within what has been called the EU border regime – namely the set of rules, laws, structures, agencies and practices that have been developed by EU insti- tutions over the last 30 years to govern migration. As has long been argued by Migreurop, this border regime is premised on an unequal sharing of control practices and duties within and outside the EU territory. On the one hand, members-states closer to the external borders of the Union have been endowed with the role of buffer zones against migrants on behalf of core western and northern EU members-states (especially through the Dublin Convention that states that the country responsible for assessing an asylum claim in the EU is the first country of Migreurop is a network of associations, activists and researchers, with a presence in entry, thereby forcing members-states sharing a border with the Schengen Area to around twenty countries across Europe, Africa and the Middle East.

The origin and emergence of these herpetofaunal groups are poorly understood. Aside from the better-explored European Neogene localities yielding amphibian and reptile fossil remains, the Neogene herpetofauna of Western Asia is understudied. The few available data need critical reviews and new interpretations, taking into account the more recent records of the European herpetofauna. The comparison of this previous data with that of European fossil records would provide data on palaeobiogeographic affiliations of the region as well as on the origin and emergence of the present-day fauna of Western Siberia. An overview of the earliest occurrences of certain amphibian lineages is still needed. In addition, studies that address such knowledge gaps can be Submitted 16 August 2016 useful for molecular biologists in their calibration of molecular clocks. Accepted 24 January 2017 Methods and Results: In this study, we considered critically reviewed available data Published 23 March 2017 from amphibian and reptile fauna from over 40 Western Siberian, Russian and Corresponding author Northeastern Kazakhstan localities, ranging from the Middle Miocene to Early Davit Vasilyan, [email protected] Pleistocene.
