In this paper, all species and genera are listed, and for each of them the first report from Messel is cited. Moreover, recent discoveries and current research projects are mentioned. The list thus reflects the state-of-the-art knowledge on the present taxonomic status of all vertebrate species and genera of Messel. Key words: Faunal list, Vertebrata, Eocene, Messel Kurzfassung 132 Wirbeltierarten sind derzeit aus der Fossilienfundstelle Grube Messel bekannt. Sie werden hier aufgeführt. Darüber hinaus werden jeweils erste Nachweise aus Messel, neue Funde sowie laufende Forschungsprojekte genannt, wodurch der aktuelle taxonomische Status der einzelnen Arten und Gattungen widergegeben wird. Schlüsselworte: Faunenliste, Vertebrata, Eozän, Messel Introduction flora. The invertebrates will be presented in a separate list (WEDMANN in prep.).

E-Mail: [email protected] Resumen. – Revisión taxonómica y filogenética del género Topaza GRAY, 1840 utilizando infor- mación espectral de la coloración del plumaje. – Utilizamos la información espectral del color para determinar la variación geográfica en la coloración del plumaje en colibríes del género Topaza GRAY, 1840. Realizamos una revisión de su situación taxonómica actual utilizando análisis de componentes principales y análisis de función discriminante. Luego de la aplicación del método de codificación gene- ralizada de frecuencias para convertir información espectral contínua en caracteres discretos, realiza- mos un análisis filogenético del género para aclarar controversias taxonómicas e identificaciones erra- das. También discutimos la situación específica de la subespecie Topaza pella pamprepta. Los resultados del presente estudio indican que la variación contínua dentro de Topaza parece ser insufi- ciente para separar el grupo en dos especies. De esta manera, se considera al género Topaza como monotípico, conteniendo cuatro subespecies: T. pella pella, T. pella microrhyncha, T. pella amaruni y T. pella pyra. Abstract. – We used color spectral data to determine the geographical variation of the plumage colora- tion in the hummingbird genus Topaza GRAY, 1840.

Stratigraphically, the localities are concentrated in the Here we provide a catalogue of 13 tracksites compiled from Obernkirchen Sandstone, a thin subunit within this forma- the literature and some new observations. Of these 13 tion. The Obernkirchen Sandstone represents mainly a tracksites, only five are still accessible and currently under sandy barrier to back-barrier and lagoonal setting within a study. Descriptions of each locality are provided, with a limnic deltaic facies complex, which was deposited during comprehensive compilation of existing data on lithofacies, the late Berriasian (Cypridea alta formosa ostracod sub- stratigraphy, palaeogeography and palaeoecology of the zone) in the southeast of the Lower Saxony Basin, northwest Obernkirchen Sandstone and equivalent strata.

Dinosaur footprint assemblages were left by that the outcrop areas have distinctly different facies and ornithopods, theropods, sauropods, ankylosaurs, and small, environments, and, therefore, track-bearing horizons can bipedal ornithischians.
