A new genus of Tanyderidae (Insecta: Diptera) from Myanmar amber,Upper Cretaceous     

《Cretaceous Research》2015

A new genus and species, Similinannotanyderus lii gen. et sp. nov., is described from Myanmar amber. It differs from other genera of Tanyderidae based on special characters of wing venation and male genitalia. This new taxon broadens the diversity of Tanyderidae in the Cretaceous, and its morphological characters enhance our understanding of the development and evolution of the primitive crane flies.  相似文献   

Reworked marine pythonomorph (Reptilia,Squamata) remains in Late Pleistocene cave deposits in central Spain     

《Cretaceous Research》2015

Three sites at the Calvero de la Higuera complex (Camino Cave, Navalmaíllo Rock Shelter, and Buena Pinta Cave), near the village of Pinilla del Valle (Madrid, Spain), are known for their record of Neanderthals and other Late Pleistocene mammals. Occasionally, they also yield much more ancient reworked remains, which come from the Upper Cretaceous dolomites and carbonatic sandstones in which these caves and shelters are developed. These are mostly teeth of sharks and rays and vertebrae and teeth of bony fishes, but several reptile vertebrae and teeth have also been found. These reptile remains, which we describe here, likely belong to the pythonomorph incertae sedis Carentonosaurus cf. mineaui. This taxon is known from several outcrops in the southwest of France but is rare on the Iberian Peninsula; indeed, only a few remains possibly related to the genus have been found (in the Cabaña Formation, Asturias, Spain). The pythonomorph remains discussed here are the first fossils of marine reptiles from the Madrid region. Should the assignment to Carentonosaurus be confirmed, the teeth would provide novel data on the characteristics of this rather poorly known taxon, and might help clarify its phylogenetic relationship within Pythonomorpha.  相似文献   

Tectonic control of accommodation space and sediment supply within the Mata Amarilla Formation (lower Upper Cretaceous) Patagonia,Argentina          下载免费PDF全文

Augusto N. Varela 《Sedimentology》2015,62(3):867-896

The Mata Amarilla Formation dates from the early Upper Cretaceous and was deposited during a transition in tectonic regime from the extensional Rocas Verdes Basin to the Austral Foreland Basin. Detailed sedimentological logs and architectural parameters were used to define 13 facies associations. The distribution of facies associations and associated variations in fluvial architecture have enabled large‐scale changes in accommodation space/sediment supply ratios (A/S ratio) to be defined for the three component sections of the Mata Amarilla Formation. The lower and upper sections are characterized by a high A/S ratio, whereas the middle section corresponds to a low A/S ratio. In the western part of the study area, small‐scale variations in the A/S ratio were recognized in the middle section. The strong west to east trend in evolution of the fluvial systems coincides with the direction of propagation of the Patagonian fold and thrust belt, which is located to the west of the study area. Intervals of high A/S ratio (i.e. lower and upper sections) are interpreted to have developed during periods of increased loading by the fold and thrust belt caused by tectonic uplift. In contrast, intervals of low A/S ratio (i.e. middle section) were developed during periods of tectonic quiescence. This article suggests that the large‐scale variations in A/S ratios are related to different rates of migration and growth of the Patagonian fold and thrust belt, whereas the small‐scale variation occurred in response to specific periods of thrusting and folding in the Patagonian fold and thrust belt (i.e. local loads). This field example of the effects of different scales of variation in A/S ratios across the Austral Foreland Basin could be used to recognize similar tectonically forced variations in stratigraphic architecture in other foreland basins throughout the world, as well as to understand the response of fluvial systems to such changes.  相似文献   

Predominance of archaea-derived hydrocarbons in an Early Triassic microbialite     

《Organic Geochemistry》2015

We investigated the distribution of lipids in Lower Triassic sedimentary rocks (252–247 myr) from South China, including a shallow water microbialite in the uppermost section of the outcrop. Archaeal derived hydrocarbons were the major constituents of the microbialite from the latest Early Triassic. Among these, we detected (i) abundant C₄₀ acyclic and monocyclic biphytanes (possibly derived from glycerol dialkyl glycerol tetraether lipids) and their degradation products, C_30–39 pseudohomologues and (ii) a C₂₅ head-to-tail linked (regular) isoprenoid hydrocarbon [possibly derived from dialkyl glycerol diether lipids (DGDs)] and its degradation products, C_21–24 pseudohomologues and abundant pristane and phytane. Through combination of compound-specific stable carbon isotope analysis of isoprenoid hydrocarbons, which had average δ¹³C values of −35‰ to −30‰, and their molecular distribution, it was not possible to unambiguously define the archaeal source for the biphytanes in the microbialite. The δ¹³C values for pristane and phytane were similar to those for head-to-tail linked C_21–25 isoprenoids; potential source organisms for these compounds were halophilic archaea. Except for methane seep microbialites, no other ancient or recent phototrophic microbialites have been reported to contain predominantly archaeal isoprenoid hydrocarbons. Our findings suggest the presence of a new type of microbialite.  相似文献   

西藏改则洞错地区白垩纪火山岩锆石U-Pb年代学、Hf同位素组成及对班公-怒江洋俯冲闭合的制约   总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1       下载免费PDF全文

班公湖—怒江缝合带是青藏高原内一条重要的缝合带,其俯冲极性和闭合时限一直存在着争议,这无疑限制了我们对青藏高原演化历史的认识。本文对仲岗安山玄武岩和一套新发现的晚白垩世安山岩进行研究,获得了其锆石U-Pb年龄分别为123.75±0.92 Ma和74.23±0.76 Ma。仲岗安山玄武岩锆石的ε_(Hf)(t)值为-7.3~+4.4,具有岛弧玄武岩特征,指示班公湖—怒江洋盆在该地区仍然继续向北俯冲;晚白垩世安山岩锆石的ε_(Hf)(t)值为+3.1~+11.1,其可能是亏损地幔混熔了部分的陆壳物质而形成的,且不整合在蛇绿岩之上。结合区域资料本文认为班公湖—怒江洋盆在改则地区的闭合时限在100~75 Ma之间。  相似文献

基底构造在沉积盆地的形成与演化过程中扮演着重要的角色。本文利用地球物理资料和地表地质调查数据,对二连盆地早白垩世断陷分布规律与基底构造特征及其关系进行了研究,并分析了基底构造对富油凹陷的控制作用。结果表明,二连盆地早白垩世68个断陷总体上自北东向南西呈弥散式分布,这些断陷可分为南部断陷群与北部断陷群,断陷群夹持在隆起之间,总体上构成了正负相间的盆岭构造格局。基底构造控制着二连盆地早白垩世断陷分布,表现为:断陷群沿着深断裂分布;坳陷对应着基底先存复向斜,隆起对应着基底先存复背斜;刚性的锡林浩特地块分割了断陷群。深断裂作为构造薄弱区在伸展变形过程中优先重新活动,并控制着断陷的发育与分布;盖层演化和基底构造之间具有良好的继承性;基底流变性发生突变的区带对断陷的发育与分布也具有控制作用。盆地基底断裂带上叠的凹陷、基底断裂带交汇处上叠的凹陷和刚性基底上新生的凹陷在伸展变形过程中构造继承性好、沉降量大、优质烃源岩发育,是富油凹陷发育的有利区域。  相似文献   

A remarkable new genus of Mantispidae (Insecta,Neuroptera) from Cretaceous amber of Myanmar and its implications on raptorial foreleg evolution in Mantispidae     

《Cretaceous Research》2015

Micromantispa cristata gen. et sp. nov. is described from the Cretaceous amber of Myanmar. This is the smallest mantispid. Its raptorial forelegs are relatively slender, bearing dense spines and setae on femora and tibia. The first tarsal segment has two long spines on the dorsal apical, which is newly observed in the family. The morphological diversity of the prothorax and raptorial forelegs in Mantispidae through the geological history are discussed.  相似文献

A new genus of Scoliidae (Insecta: Hymenoptera) from the Lower Cretaceous of northeast China     

《Cretaceous Research》2015

A new genus and species of Scoliidae (Hymenoptera), Sinoproscolia yangshuwanziensis gen. et sp. nov., is described from the Lower Cretaceous Yixian Formation in Inner Mongolia, China and attributed to the subfamily Proscoliinae. Some characteristics, including complete crossveins 1r-rs and 2r-m in the forewing, and a free section present in almost all longitudinal veins indicate a basal position of the new genus in Proscoliinae. The presence of vein 2A suggests its atavistic origin in Sinoproscolia gen. nov. rather than a true plesiomorphy.  相似文献
