RESUMO O objetivo desta pesquisa é o estudo da fauna de vertebrados da Bacia da Paraíba, abordando aspectos taxonômicos, paleoecológicos e paleoambientais com ênfase na análise de dentes de répteis e de peixes ósseos ( Enchodus ), por possuírem características diagnósticas à classificação taxonômica. A partir de trabalhos de campo, levantamentos bibliográficos e das coleções paleontológicas da UFPE e UFRPE foram identificados e revisados taxonomicamente 36 táxons. Os vertebrados da bacia estão representados por duas classes de peixes e por répteis, sendo os peixes predominantes. Os Chondrichthyes (peixes cartilaginosos) presentes são quatro espécies de raias e doze espécies de tubarões, distribuídas em oito gêneros, com a ocorrência de Ptychodus pela primeira vez assinalada para a bacia. Os Osteichthyes (peixes ósseos) com dez táxons, sendo comum Enchodus e picnodontiformes. Os répteis da bacia são marinhos e terrestres. Os grupos marinhos compreendem a família Mosasauridae, com duas subfamílias, Mosasaurinae e Plioplatecarpinae, nos gêneros Mosasaurus , Globidens , Platecarpus e Prognathodon ; a Superordem Crocodylomorpha, Família Dyrosauridae; Ordem Plesiosauria, famílias Elasmosauridae e Pliosauridae. Os terrestres estão representados pelas ordens Testudines (família Pelomedusidae) e Pterosauria, com a espécie, Nyctosaurus lamegoi . Coprólitos analisados foram atribuídos a crocodilomorfos e quelônios. Além da importância na identificação dos táxons, os dentes foram analisados para inferir hábito alimentar dos grupos e possíveis paleoambientes, tendo sido encontrados as dietas/preferências alimentares dos tipos: Agarrador (tubarões); Esmagador/Triturador (raias); Agarrador/Esmagador/Cortador (grandes predadores); Perfurador/Arrancador (tubarões) e; Cortador/Arrancador (tubarões). A microanálise dos dentes por MEV-EDS revelou a preservação da biomineralização original através da identificação de elementos que compõem o mineral hidroxioapatita além de possível presença do elemento Irídio em dente de Mosasaurus anceps, Formação Gramame. Os vertebrados da bacia sugerem um ambiente marinho mais profundo de plataforma externa para as formações Itamaracá e Gramame e ambiente de água mais rasa na Formação Maria Farinha. PALAVRAS-CHAVE: Paleovertebrados, taxonomia, paleoecologia, Cretáceo Superior, Paleoceno, Bacia da Paraíba. ABSTRACT The aim pourpose of this research is the study of the vertebrate fauna of Paraíba Basin, using taxonomic, paleoecologic and paleoenvironment aspects with emphasis in the tooth analysis of reptiles and bone fishes ( Enchodus ), for the diagnostic characteristics that allow the taxonomic classification. It was indentified and revised taxonomic of 36 taxon, from field works, bibliographical surveys and UFPE and UFRPE paleontological collections. The vertebrates are represented by two classes of fish and reptiles; there are the dominance of fishes. The Chondrichthyes (cartilaginous fish) are four species of rays and twelve species of sharks, distributed in eight genus, with the occurrence of Ptychodus designated for the first time for the basin. The Osteichthyes (bone fishes) with ten taxon, the most common are Enchodus and pycnodontiforms. The reptiles of the basin are marine and terrestrial. The marine group are the Mosasauridae family, with two subfamilies, Mosasaurinae and Plioplatecarpinae, and the genus Mosasaurus , Globidens , Platecarpus and Prognathodon ; superorder Crocodylomorpha, Dyrosauridae family; Plesiosauria order, families Elasmosauridae and Pliosauridae. The terrestrial ones are represented by the orders Testudines (Pelomedusidae family) and Pterosauria, with Nyctosaurus lamegoi species. The coprolites analysis had been attributed to the chelonia and crocodylomorphs. Beyond the importance in the identification of taxon, the teeth had been analyzed to infer alimentary habit of the groups and possible environmental interpretation. The types of diets found are: clutching (sharks); crushing/grinding(rays); grasp/crush/chop (large predator); pierce/gouge (sharks) and; slicing/gouge (sharks). The microanalysis of teeth for MEV-EDS shows the preservation of the original biomineralization through the identification of elements that compose the hidroxylapatite mineral, beyond possible presence of the element Iridium in tooth of Mosasaurus anceps , from the Gramame Formation. The vertebrates of the basin suggest deeper marine environment of external shelf for the Itamaracá and Gramame formations and shalow marine environment in the Maria Farinha Formation. Key-words: Paleovertebrates, taxonomy, paleoecology, Upper Cretaceous, Paleocene, Paraíba Basin. 1 ÍNDICE AGRADECIMENTOS................................................................................................................v RESUMO...................................................................................................................................vi ABSTRACT..............................................................................................................................vii ÍNDICE.......................................................................................................................................1 LISTA DE FIGURAS.................................................................................................................4 LISTA DE TABELAS................................................................................................................8 CAPÍTULO I – INTRODUÇÃO................................................................................................9 I.1.

  • Annotated Checklist of Fossil Fishes from the Smoky Hill Chalk of the Niobrara Chalk (Upper Cretaceous) in Kansas
    Lucas, S. G. and Sullivan, R.M., eds., 2006, Late Cretaceous vertebrates from the Western Interior. New Mexico Museum of Natural History and Science Bulletin 35. 193 ANNOTATED CHECKLIST OF FOSSIL FISHES FROM THE SMOKY HILL CHALK OF THE NIOBRARA CHALK (UPPER CRETACEOUS) IN KANSAS KENSHU SHIMADA1 AND CHRISTOPHER FIELITZ2 1Environmental Science Program and Department of Biological Sciences, DePaul University,2325 North Clifton Avenue, Chicago, Illinois 60614; and Sternberg Museum of Natural History, Fort Hays State University, 3000 Sternberg Drive, Hays, Kansas 67601;2Department of Biology, Emory & Henry College, P.O. Box 947, Emory, Virginia 24327 Abstract—The Smoky Hill Chalk Member of the Niobrara Chalk is an Upper Cretaceous marine deposit found in Kansas and adjacent states in North America. The rock, which was formed under the Western Interior Sea, has a long history of yielding spectacular fossil marine vertebrates, including fishes. Here, we present an annotated taxo- nomic list of fossil fishes (= non-tetrapod vertebrates) described from the Smoky Hill Chalk based on published records. Our study shows that there are a total of 643 referable paleoichthyological specimens from the Smoky Hill Chalk documented in literature of which 133 belong to chondrichthyans and 510 to osteichthyans. These 643 specimens support the occurrence of a minimum of 70 species, comprising at least 16 chondrichthyans and 54 osteichthyans. Of these 70 species, 44 are represented by type specimens from the Smoky Hill Chalk. However, it must be noted that the fossil record of Niobrara fishes shows evidence of preservation, collecting, and research biases, and that the paleofauna is a time-averaged assemblage over five million years of chalk deposition.

The shark fauna of the Upper Cretaceous Hinoshima Formation (Santonian: 86.3–83.6 Ma) of the manuscriptHimenoura Group (Kamiamakusa, Kumamoto Prefecture, Kyushu, Japan) was investigated based on fossil shark teeth found at five localities: Himedo Park, Kugushima, Wadanohana, Higashiura, and Kotorigoe. A detailed geological survey and taxonomic analysis was undertaken, and the habitat, depositional environment, and associated mollusks of each locality were considered in the context of previous studies. Twenty-one species, 15 genera, 11 families, and 6 orders of fossil sharks are recognized from the localities. This assemblage is more diverse than has previously been reported for Japan, and Lamniformes and Hexanchiformes were abundant. Three categories of shark fauna are recognized: a coastal region (Himedo Park; probably a breeding site), the coast to the open sea (Kugushima and Wadanohana), and bottom-dwelling or near-seafloor fauna (Kugushima, Wadanohana, Higashiura, and Kotorigoe).

Elizarova 1, kv. 30, St. Petersburg, 193029 Russia ** Zoological Institute, Russian Academy of Sciences, Universitetskaya nab. 1, St. Petersburg, 199034 Russia Received April 9, 1997 Abstract—The “archaic” tooth form and comparatively few tooth rows are characteristic of the Cretaceous sharks of the genus Eostriatolamia (Odontaspididae). This is in contrast to the conditions in the Cenozoic sand sharks and thus makes it possible to regard this as a valid genus. The evolution and systematics of Eostriatola- mia are reconsidered, in particular, on the basis of statistical methods. The cluster and principal component analyses were used to process a large quantity of teeth from 17 samples from the Albian-Campanian. Six or seven species are included in the genus Eostriatolamia: E. gracilis (Albian of Europe and Kazakhstan), E. stri- atula (Aptian–Albian of Europe), E. subulata (=E. amonensis?) (Cenomanian of Europe, Kazakhstan and ?USA), E. venusta (=E. samhammeri?, =E. sanguinei?) (Santonian–Early Campanian of Europe, ? Late Cam- panian of USA), E. segedini (=E. aktobensis?) (Santonian–Early Campanian of Kazakhstan), ?E. lerichei (the latest Early Campanian–beginning of the Late Campanian of Kazakhstan) and E. holmdelensis (Late Campa- nian of the USA).

Eleven ostracod species were identified in the genera Cytherella Jones, Cytherelloidea Alexander, Eocytheropteron Alexander, Semicytherura Wagner, Paracosta Siddiqui, Buntonia Howe, Soudanella Apostolescu, Leguminocythereis Howe and, probably, Pataviella Liebau. The planktonic foraminifera are represented by the genera Guembelitria Cushman, Parvularugoglobigerina Hofker, Woodringina Loeblich and Tappan, Heterohelix Ehrenberg, Zeauvigerina Finlay, Muricohedbergella Huber and Leckie, and Praemurica Olsson, Hemleben, Berggren and Liu. The ostracods and foraminifera analyzed indicate an inner shelf paleoenvironment for the studied section. Blooms of Guembelitria spp., which indicate either shallow environments or upwelling zones, were also recorded reinforcing previous paleoenvironmental interpretations based on other fossil groups for this basin.

Abstract In layers of phosphorites and gray calcareous mudstones of the Loma Gorda Formation, in the vicinity of the municipal seat of Yaguará in Huila department, Colombia, were found fossils teeth of chondrichthyes, these were extracted from the rocks by mechanical means, to be compared with the species in the bibliography in order to indentify them. The species were: Ptychodus mortoni (order Hybodontiformes), were found, Squalicorax falcatus and Cretodus crassidens (order Lamniformes). This finding constitutes the first record of these species in the Colombian territory; which allows to extend its paleogeographic distribution to the northern region of South America, which until now was limited to Africa, Europe, Asia and North America, except for the Ptychodus mortoni that has been described before in Venezuela. Keywords: first record; sharks; upper Cretaceous; fossil teeth; Colombia.

  • Correlation of Albian European and Tethyan Ammonite Zonations and the Boundaries of the Albian Stage and Substages: Some Comments
    Correlation of Albian European and Tethyan ammonite zonations and the boundaries of the Albian Stage and substages: some comments Hugh G. Owen Owen, H.G. Correlation of Albian European and Tethyan ammonite zonations and the boundaries of the Albian Stage and substages: some comments. — Scripta Geol., Spec. Issue 3: 129-149, 5 figs., Lei• den, December 1999. H.G. Owen, Department of Palaeontology, The Natural History Museum, Cromwell Road, London SW7 5BD, England (UK). Key words: Early Cretaceous, Albian Stage, ammonite zonation, European and Tethyan faunal provinces Although the so-called 'standard' ammonite zonation of the Albian contains index species which occur in the Tethyan province, the scheme largely reflects the faunal succession in the European fau• nal province with its endemic sonneratiinid and hoplitinid faunal elements. Workers in the Tethyan province, stretching from South America in the west to Australia in the east, including southern Africa, Madagascar and India, face problems in the correlation of their successions with this so-called 'standard' scheme. There are other problems in that the succession of hoplitinid ammonites used in the biostratigraphy of European Albian sediments allows a far more detailed zonation to be made than in the case of some of the longer time-ranging Tethyan forms. This paper comments on propos• als made recently for the delimiting of the base of the Albian Stage, and the Middle and Upper Sub- stages, based on ammonite faunas. New information which affects the Albian ammonite zonation in the European faunal province and its correlation with the Tethyan province is discussed. The current hierarchical framework of zones and subzones used in the European faunal province may prove to be unsatisfactory in interprovincial correlation and particularly if the lower boundary of the Albian Stage was placed within the current Leymeriella tardefurcata ammonite Zone, instead of at its base.
