  • A New Xinjiangchelyid Turtle from the Middle Jurassic of Xinjiang, China and the Evolution of the Basipterygoid Process in Mesozoic Turtles Rabi Et Al
    A new xinjiangchelyid turtle from the Middle Jurassic of Xinjiang, China and the evolution of the basipterygoid process in Mesozoic turtles Rabi et al. Rabi et al. BMC Evolutionary Biology 2013, 13:203 http://www.biomedcentral.com/1471-2148/13/203 Rabi et al. BMC Evolutionary Biology 2013, 13:203 http://www.biomedcentral.com/1471-2148/13/203 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access A new xinjiangchelyid turtle from the Middle Jurassic of Xinjiang, China and the evolution of the basipterygoid process in Mesozoic turtles Márton Rabi1,2*, Chang-Fu Zhou3, Oliver Wings4, Sun Ge3 and Walter G Joyce1,5 Abstract Background: Most turtles from the Middle and Late Jurassic of Asia are referred to the newly defined clade Xinjiangchelyidae, a group of mostly shell-based, generalized, small to mid-sized aquatic froms that are widely considered to represent the stem lineage of Cryptodira. Xinjiangchelyids provide us with great insights into the plesiomorphic anatomy of crown-cryptodires, the most diverse group of living turtles, and they are particularly relevant for understanding the origin and early divergence of the primary clades of extant turtles. Results: Exceptionally complete new xinjiangchelyid material from the ?Qigu Formation of the Turpan Basin (Xinjiang Autonomous Province, China) provides new insights into the anatomy of this group and is assigned to Xinjiangchelys wusu n. sp. A phylogenetic analysis places Xinjiangchelys wusu n. sp. in a monophyletic polytomy with other xinjiangchelyids, including Xinjiangchelys junggarensis, X. radiplicatoides, X. levensis and X. latiens. However, the analysis supports the unorthodox, though tentative placement of xinjiangchelyids and sinemydids outside of crown-group Testudines. A particularly interesting new observation is that the skull of this xinjiangchelyid retains such primitive features as a reduced interpterygoid vacuity and basipterygoid processes.

Marcos Jannello 2018 Resumen Las inusuales estructuras óseas observadas entre los vertebrados, como el cuello largo de la jirafa o el cráneo en forma de T del tiburón martillo, han interesado a los científicos desde hace mucho tiempo. Uno de estos casos es el clado Testudinata el cual representa uno de los grupos más fascinantes y enigmáticos conocidos entre de los amniotas. Su inconfundible plan corporal, que ha persistido desde el Triásico tardío hasta la actualidad, se caracteriza por la presencia del caparazón, el cual encierra a las cinturas, tanto pectoral como pélvica, dentro de la caja torácica desarrollada. Esta estructura les ha permitido a las tortugas adaptarse con éxito a diversos ambientes (por ejemplo, terrestres, acuáticos continentales, marinos costeros e incluso marinos pelágicos). Su capacidad para habitar diferentes nichos ecológicos, su importante diversidad taxonómica y su plan corporal particular hacen de los Testudinata un modelo de estudio muy atrayente dentro de los vertebrados. Una disciplina que ha demostrado ser una herramienta muy importante para abordar varios temas relacionados al caparazón de las tortugas, es la paleohistología. Esta disciplina se ha involucrado en temas diversos tales como el origen del caparazón, el origen del desarrollo y mantenimiento de la ornamentación, la paleoecología y la sistemática.

A complex taphonomic history is shown by a tern Europe. A new genus and species of Late Jurassic turtle, range of overlying grazing traces and bioerosion on the cara- Hispaniachelys prebetica gen. et sp. nov. from the upper Ox- pace. The carapace was subsequently overturned and buried fordian of the Prebetic (Southern Spain), is described on the ventrally up, terminating grazing activity, and was then bored basis of postcranial material. The specimen is the only known by sponges before final burial. Scanning electron microscopy tetrapod from the Mesozoic of the Prebetic and the oldest reveals phosphatic microspheroids associated with bacterial turtle from southern Europe.

  • Reinterpretation of the Spanish Late Jurassic “Hispaniachelys Prebetica” As an Indeterminate Plesiochelyid Turtle
    Reinterpretation of the Spanish Late Jurassic “Hispaniachelys prebetica” as an indeterminate plesiochelyid turtle ADÁN PÉREZ-GARCÍA Pérez-García, A. 2014. Reinterpretation of the Spanish Late Jurassic “Hispaniachelys prebetica” as an indeterminate plesiochelyid turtle. Acta Palaeontologica Polonica 59 (4): 879–885. A partial postcranial skeleton (carapace, plastron, and other poorly preserved elements) of a turtle, from the late Ox- fordian of the Betic Range of Spain, has recently been assigned to a new taxon, Hispaniachelys prebetica. This is one of the few European turtle taxa reported from pre-Kimmeridgian levels, and the oldest turtle so far known from southern Europe. The character combination identified in that taxon (including the presence of cleithra, and single cervical scale) did not allow its assignment to Plesiochelyidae, a group of turtles very abundant and diverse in the Late Jurassic of Eu- rope. The revision of the single specimen assigned to this taxon led to the reinterpretation of some of its elements, being reassigned to Plesiochelyidae. This study confirms the presence of Plesiochelyidae in the Oxfordian. However, because the Spanish taxon does not present a unique combination of characters, it is proposed as a nomen dubium. Key words: Testudines, Plesiochelyidae, Hispaniachelys prebetica, Oxfordian, Jurassic, Spain.

Langer In nature we never see anything isolated, but everything in connection with something else which is before it, beside it, under it and over it Johann Wolfgang von Goethe Doubt is not a pleasant condition, but certainty is absurd François Voltaire i Ferreira – Patterns of morphological evolution in the skull of turtles Acknowledgements I am very grateful to my supervisor Max Langer, who offered me a space in his lab for the past ten years and immensily contributed to shape my career path until now. Max not only helped me think through paleo-problems, but also about career options and personal matters, always being present and giving support when I needed. I also thank my PhD co- supervisor in Tübingen, Prof. Dr. Madelaine Böhme, who accepted and welcomed me at the Senckenberg Institute and Universität Tübingen for a whole year, offering me not only a space to work, but also interesting discussions on various subjects. I am very grateful to my “unofficial” co-supervisor, PD Dr. Ingmar Werneburg, who has supported me from the beginning of my PhD, helping already when I was writing my doctoral research project and now, during this agitated last year.
