La revisión de las relaciones de campo, junto con el análisis de procedencia de rocas siliciclásticas (petrografía de areniscas y geocro- nología en circones detríticos de varias localidades), sugiere que durante el Cretácico Temprano hasta el Aptiano–Albiano el relleno siliciclástico de la cuenca se caracterizó por tener un carácter transgresivo granodecreciente y una composición cuarzosa con componentes de primer ciclo asociados a condiciones de meteorización intensa en el área fuente. Las edades U–Pb en circón jurásicas, triásicas y más antiguas sugieren que las fuentes principales fueron las rocas ígneas y metamórficas que conforman el basa- mento de la cordillera Central. Además, la presencia de edades detríticas del Cretácico Temprano entre 120 y 100 Ma, junto con la de rocas volcánicas intercaladas al tope de la secuencia que se caracterizan por una mezcla de firmas geoquímicas de arco, MORB y E–MORB, puede estar relacionada con la evolución de un arco extensional y la for- mación de una cuenca de retroarco. Las rocas plutónicas con edades de cristalización de ca. 98 Ma muestran evidencias isotópicas de Nd, Sr, Hf y O de afinidad mantélica que estarían asociadas a la existencia de una corteza continental adelgazada. A los ca. 93 Ma, las secuencias sedimentarias del Cretácico Temprano fueron deformadas e in- truidas por rocas plutónicas, las cuales en cambio muestran características isotópicas corticales que pueden explicarse por la participación de una corteza más gruesa que promovió la interacción del fundido con las rocas caja más radiogénicas. Este cambio tectónico de un estilo de subducción de tipo Marianas a uno de tipo andino es común en toda la margen continental suramericana y estaría asociado con reorganizaciones cinemáticas a escala de placas que marcarían el inicio de la cons- trucción de la cadena andina.

  • Lower Miocene Alligatoroids (Crocodylia) from the Castillo Formation, Northwest of Venezuela
    Palaeobiodiversity and Palaeoenvironments https://doi.org/10.1007/s12549-018-0332-5 ORIGINAL PAPER Lower Miocene alligatoroids (Crocodylia) from the Castillo Formation, northwest of Venezuela Andrés Solórzano1,2 & Ascanio D. Rincón1 & Giovanne M. Cidade3 & Mónica Núñez-Flores1,4 & Leonardo Sánchez1 Received: 23 June 2017 /Revised: 27 December 2017 /Accepted: 14 May 2018 # Senckenberg Gesellschaft für Naturforschung and Springer-Verlag GmbH Germany, part of Springer Nature 2018 Abstract Crocodyliform diversity was particularly high during the middle and late Miocene of South America, with up to 12 species recovered from a single geological unit. Nonetheless, the early Miocene fossil record of low-latitude vertebrates is scarce; hence, crocodylians remain poorly known in the region. The Castillo Formation, located in the northwest of Venezuela, preserves an interesting vertebrate fauna with a well-constrained late early Miocene age. Previous work dealing with crocodylians of this formation only recorded three taxa: the gavialoid Siquisiquesuchus venezuelensis and Gryposuchus sp. and indeterminate alligatoroid remains. New cranial and mandibular material recently recovered from the Castillo Formation allows us to document four previously unrecognised alligatoroid forms: Purussaurus sp., Caiman sp., an indeterminate caimanine and an indeterminate alligatoroid. With six taxa, the crocodylian assemblage reveals a previously undocumented relatively high taxonomic diversity in the early Miocene. The Castillo crocodylians show a broad range of morphological disparity and body sizes ranging from small (2.5 m–62 kg) to large (7.5 m–1600 kg) taxa. Thus, crocodylian niche partition, as well as the abundance and variety of resources and environmental heterogeneity of aquatic ecosystems in South America, were already established by at least the early Miocene.

  • Strontium-Isotope Stratigraphy As a Constraint on the Age of Condensed Levels: Examples from the Jurassic of the Subbetic
    Strontium-isotope stratigraphy as a constraint on the age of condensed levels: examples from the Jurassic of the Subbetic Zone (southern Spain) LUIS M. NIETO*, PEDRO A. RUIZ-ORTIZ*, JAVIER REY and Ma ISABEL BENITOà * Dpto. de Geologı´a, Universidad de Jae´n, E-23071 Jae´n, Spain (E-mail: [email protected]) Dpto. de Geologı´a, EPS Linares, Universidad de Jae´n, E-23700 Jae´n, Spain àDpto. de Estratigrafı´a, U.E.I. Correlaciones Estratigra´ ficas, Universidad Complutense de Madrid-CSIC, E-28040 Madrid, Spain ABSTRACT Condensed levels are often characterized by reworked fossils that may lead to incorrect age assessments. Strontium-isotope stratigraphy is an important chronostratigraphic tool that can be used to verify the biostratigraphic information from condensed beds. This paper describes a study of the 87 Sr/86Sr isotope ratios of 56 belemnite samples collected from 28 stratigraphic sections of the boundary between the Upper Member of the Gavila´n Formation and the Zegrı´ Formation (Pliensbachian, Subbetic Zone). The petrographic and geochemical data (d18O, d13C, concentrations of Fe, Mn and Mg, and the Sr/Mn ratio) suggest that the belemnites have preserved their original marine geochemical composition. After plotting the samples in diagrams of 87Sr/86Sr values against time according to their biostratigraphic age, four different groups (A, B, C and D) were obtained with respect to the reference curve. In groups A and B, the age deduced from the Sr-isotope ratio is in total or partial agreement, respectively, with the biostratigraphic age; therefore the 87Sr/86Sr ratio is a good method for the dating, correlation and assessment of biostratigraphic results.
