  • The Jurassic Fossil Wood Diversity from Western Liaoning, NE China
    Jiang et al. Journal of Palaeogeography (2019) 8:1 https://doi.org/10.1186/s42501-018-0018-y Journal of Palaeogeography RESEARCH Open Access The Jurassic fossil wood diversity from western Liaoning, NE China Zi-Kun Jiang1,2, Yong-Dong Wang2,3*, Ning Tian4,5, Ao-Wei Xie2,6, Wu Zhang7, Li-Qin Li2 and Min Huang1 Abstract Western Liaoning is a unique region in China that bears diverse types of Jurassic plants, including leaves, fern rhizomes, and wood, providing significant proxy for vegetation and palaeoenvironment reconstruction of the well-known Yanliao Flora in East Asia. In particular, the silicified wood is very abundant in the fossil Lagerstätte of the Jurassic Tiaojishan Formation in Beipiao, western Liaoning. Previous and recent systematic investigations documented a high diversity of the Jurassic wood assemblages. These assemblages are dominated by conifers, followed by cycads and ginkgoaleans. In total, about 30 species belonging to 21 genera of fossil wood have been recorded so far, which are represented by Cycadopsida, Ginkgopsida, Coniferopsida, and Gymnospermae incertae sedis. The evolutionary implications of several distinctive fossil wood taxa as well as palaeoclimate implications are summarized based on their anatomical structures and growth ring patterns. This work approaches the vegetation development and evolutionary significances of the wood taxa and their relatives, and provides clues for the further understanding of the diversity of the Jurassic Yanliao Flora in East Asia. Keywords: Fossil wood, Diversity, Evolution, Tiaojishan Formation, Jurassic 1 Introduction 2004;Wangetal.,2009). Among these localities, western Fossil floras are a significant record for the vegetation Liaoning is a well-known fossil Lagerstätte with diverse and for the palaeoenvironment reconstructions of the and well-preserved fossil plant foliages and wood (Zhang Mesozoic.

Although the tooth was Accepted 12 May, 2020 misidentified as a "Prodeinodon"-like megalosaurid theropod at the first time, detailed comparisons with known theropod dentition anatomy strongly indicate that this tooth belongs to an Acrocanthosaurus-like basal carcharodontosaurid theropod. This referral is supported by its combination of large size, ovoid-shaped cervix outline, mesial carina that does not reach the cervix, labially displaced distal carina and large number of denticles. This tooth is different from other carcharodontosaurid teeth from the same formation in several anatomical aspects (e.g., smaller overall size, presence of transverse lines adjacent to the distal carina, presence of interdenticular sulci in distal carina, denticle densities, crown basal ratio), indicating that carcharodontosaurid diversity in the Early Cretaceous of Korea could have been higher, although these differences may represent positional or individual variations. The presence of Acrocanthosaurus-like theropod teeth (e.g., "Prodeinodon", "Wakinosaurus") from early Cretaceous deposits (Valanginian-Cenomanian) of South Korea, Japan, Mongolia and China indicates that North American Acrocanthosaurus atokensis possibly represents a form that immigrated from the Asia.

Abundant marine microfossils such as foraminifers, calcareous z nannofossils and dinocysts were yielded in the sedimentary section of the above wells. Abundant palynomorphs originated from nearby onshore are also encountered. Based on nannofossiles, the biostratigraphic zones from NN12 (Amaurolithus tricorniculatus Zone) to NN19 (P seudoemiliania lacunosa Zone) are established. Four foraminiferal zones and four palynomorph assemblages were identified, which can be corresponded to 2) -Nf- Sb) 34 m -5- calcareous nannofossil zones.

  • Small Pterosaur Tracks in the Jinju Formation (Early Cretaceous), Gyeongsang Basin, South Korea: Abundance of Tiny Pterosaur Tracks in the East Asia

Particularly noteworthy is that pterosaur tracks are commonly found in this area, although pterosaur tracks are generally rare compared to dinosaur tracks in other areas. Besides, the pterosaur tracks in this site vary widely in their morphology, size, and degree of preservation. Here we report new pterosaur tracks and trackway which are very small and well-preserved among various pterosaur tracks. Manus imprints have average values of 27.8 mm long, 9.0 mm wide, and 3.2 length/width ra- tio. Pes prints show average values of 27.7 mm long, 13.2 mm wide, and 2.1 length/width ratio. Small-sized (< 5 cm) footprints of pterosaur are rarely occurred around the world. At present, only four ichnospecies reported in the East Asia and Europe are valid: Pteraichnus koreanensis (Hasandong Formation, Korea), P.

  • Sedimentologic Properties of the Oil-Producing Late Cretaceous
    Sedimentologic properties of the oil-producing Late Cretaceous fluvio-deltaic Fuyu reservoirs of the Quantou Formation, Songliao Basin, Anda Sag, NE China Zhang, Jingjun1,2, Osman Salad Hersi2, Han jiangbo1. 1Geoscience Institute, Northeast Petroleum University, 2Department of Geology, University of Regina. Summary The Lower Cretaceous system of the Songliao Basin consists of several oil- and gas-producing sandstone intervals with muddy intervals that act as cap rocks. The reservoir units include, in an ascending order, Fuyu, Gaotaizi, Putahohua and Heidimioao. The Fuyu reservoir constitutes the upper part of the Quantou Formation, particularly the uppermost strata of K1q3 member and the overlying K1q4 member. The reservoir interval consists of fine-grained sandstone with claystone to siltstone interlayers. The sandstone reservoir units are characterized by moderately sorted, fine-grained, planar to low angle tabular cross beddings and cross-laminations. The sandstone commonly have sharp to erosional lower boundaries with the muddier facies and sharp to gradational upper boundary with the muddier facies. These sedimentary properties along with patterns of the wireline logs from wells in the study area suggest that the strata of the Fuyu reservoirs accumulated in a fluvial to deltaic depositional system that ended up in a lacustrine environment. The depositional system was most likely river-dominated where tidal influence and wave actions were apparently minimal. The sediments brought by the rivers were fine (clay to fine-sand size) in nature. It is interpreted that the sandy facies accumulated in both subaerial and subaqueous distributary channels of delta plane and proximal delta front settings. The muddy facies accumulated interchannel and distal delta front settings.
