Opis:
A review of the Cambrian edrioasteroid echinoderm Cambraster cannati is made based on new collections from the Iberian Chains (NE Spain) and Montagne Noire (France). New morphological data include a completely articulated oral area and details of ambulacra. Specimens ranging from 4 to 26 mm in diameter provide detailed information concerning the full ontogeny. Important changes through ontogeny mainly affect the marginal ring and the plating pattern of the aboral surface. Comparison with other species of Cambrasterindicates that the aboral surface of Cambraster tastudorum from Australia shows strong resemblance to juvenile specimens of C. cannati. Cambraster cannati was attached directly to the substrate and inhabited relatively high energy, offshore environments from the west margin of Gondwana. Abnormalities in the skeleton are described for the first time in a Cambrian edrioasteroid.

Opis:
The Tremadocian–Floian (Lower Ordovician) Saint-Chinian, La Maurerie, and Landeyran formations of the southern Montagne Noire (France) collectively contain at least two species of conulariids, namely Archaeoconularia cf. insignis and Conularia azaisi, the latter herein designated as the type species of the new genus, Galliconularia. Archaeoconularia insignis may also occur in the Lower Ordovician Fezouata Shale of southern Morocco, and an indeterminate species of this genus probably occurs in the Lower Ordovician Tonggao Formation of South China. Galliconularia azaisi differs from all other conulariids in having a raised facial midline and very fine, trochoidal transverse ribs which cross the midline ridge without interruption or diminution. In specimens preserving the outermost peridermal lamellae, the transverse ribs bear sub-microscopic nodes, and the broad interspaces are crossed by very slender interspace ridges. Finally, even though the Montagne Noire was part of the western Gondwanan passive margin during Cambro-Ordovician times, G. azaisi remains unknown outside of France.

Opis:
Stratigraphical and sedimentological analyses of Late Neoproterozoic successions in Lesser Himalaya are combined herein with palaeogeographical considerations and comparisons with equivalent successions in India and South China. The succession starts with the Hazara Formation, which contains complete and incomplete Bouma sequences suggesting its deposition in deep marine turbidite settings. The overlying Tanawal Formation, rich in massive sandstone, shale and siltstone, was deposited in shallow marine conditions, as indicated by the presence of parallel lamination, large scale tabular, trough cross- and hummocky cross-stratifications. The Tanawal Formation facies shift laterally from proximal (south-southeast) to distal (north-northwest). The glaciogenic Tanaki Boulder Bed, overlying the Tanawal Formation, was deposited during the Maronian glaciation. It is equivalent to the Blaini Formation of India, and to the Sinian diamictites of South China. The Abbottabad Formation of Cambrian age overlies the Tanaki Boulder Bed, and is composed of dolomite, chert nodules and phosphate-rich packages; similar successions are documented in India and South China at the same stratigraphical interval. The similarities of the Neoproterozoic successions of Lesser Himalaya (both in Pakistan and India) and South China suggests their possible proximity during the break-up of Rodinia and the assembly of the Gondwana Supercontinent.

Opis:
Along the Northern part of the West Thailand Region (NWTR), a long-lasting belt of radiolarian cherts, separates Pennsylvanian to Permian palaeotropical limestones of the Inthanon Zone to the east from Permian limestones in the west containing a temperate marine fauna in the Roadian and a biogeographically distinctive fusulinid fauna in the Wordian. Highly abundant but low diversity of Kungurian radiolarians in silicified shales as well as temperate faunas in limestones from the south and the west of Thailand, respectively support constrains in the temperate environment during the period of deglaciation in peri-Gondawana. The well-known underlying diamictite and overlying temperate sediments with the succeeding fully tropical limestone sequences support a gradational palaeoclimate transition. Devonian faunas found in condensed sequences of the NWTR were deposited in a deep platform or ramp environment. A lack of basalts in the NWTR does not suggest oceanic environments for any Palaeozoic sequence within the NWTR and a paucity of basalts in the northwestern part of the Inthanon Zone also does not provide good evidence of an oceanic realm. Indeed, ‘continental margin’ Carboniferous sandstones appear to underlie the palaeotropical limestones and their plant fossils and their benthonic faunas do not suggest oceanic conditions in the northwestern Inthanon Zone. We, therefore, suggest that an autochthonous or para-autochthonous Inthanon Zone origin for these Carboniferous sandstones is more likely than deposition within a subducting Palaeotethyan Ocean. A strong contrast between the ‘temperate’ Permian limestones of the NWTR and the tropical limestones of the Inthanon Zone further emphasises the Mae Yuam/Mae Sariang Fault Zone (MYMS FZ) as a reactivated oceanic boundary between Gondwana and ‘Cathaysia’ and is supported by the oceanic lithosphere origin of the detrital Cr spinels in the Triassic foreland basin siliciclastics of the NWTR. The limestones of the Inthanon Zone range from Visean to Permian and possibly Triassic and were deposited in shallow, tropical seas for over 90 million years. This longevity is either not possible or highly unlikely for shallow marine carbonates on volcanic seamounts supported on subducting (and therefore cooling and sinking) ocean crust (Huppert et al., 2020) but is possible on isolated carbonate platforms on continental crust separated by narrow basins with limited volcanism. Carboniferous sandstones and Devonian-Permian radiolarian cherts from the Inthanon Zone are continental marginal and are neither pelagic nor oceanic and are interpreted as deposited in extensional, deeper basins between the isolated carbonate platforms. We suggest an alternative hypothesis to the overthrust/ allochthon model where the NWTR is the eastern platform margin of the Sibumasu Terrane from the Devonian through to the Triassic and separated from the Inthanon Terrane by an ocean in the position of the MYMS FZ. It is suggested that Inthanon rifted from Gondwana in the Early Devonian and the NWTR, as part of the Sibumasu Terrane, rifted off in the early Permian. As the Inthanon Terrane ribbon continent drifted northwards the continental crust thinned and extended and small rift basins allowed basalts to be extruded associated with deep-water, continental margin, hemipelagic, non-hydrothermal radiolarian oozes. Isolated carbonate platforms were established on Carboniferous sandstone bases and were separated by deep-water but non-pelagic extensional basins. Turbidites originating on the carbonate highs supplied carbonates clasts containing Devonian through Permian conodonts, to the adjacent basins (Udchachon et al., 2018). We provisionally suggest that the Sukhothai Terrane rifted with Inthanon with its older siliciclastic successions of the Siluro-Devonian (?) Khao Kieo Formation and the unconformably overlying Carboniferous (Dan Lan Hoi Group) (Bunopas, 1982; Ueno & Charoentitirat, 2011) supplying siliciclastic and volcaniclastic debris to the Inthanon Zone. This hypothesis is broadly in accord with Dew et al.’s (2018) ‘explanation A’ for the crustal geochemistry of the northern Thailand terranes. In the early Permian (Kungurian) Sibumasu was probably in cool to temperate seas but by the middle Permian, the NWTR had rifted from Gondwana and was in the southern hemisphere tropics (13° ±2° S, Zhao et al., 2020). Terrane collision occurred during the Triassic (Ishida et al., 2006; Mitchell et al., 2012; Cai et al., 2017; Hara et al., 2021) with the establishment of a thrust front along the Mae Sariang Thrust Zone and the deposition of the mainly siliciclastic Mae Sariang Group on the NWTR within a foreland basin.

Sparse fish microremains have been found in marine limestones from the Middle Devonian (Givetian) Skały Formation (Sitka Coral-Crinoid Limestone Member and Sierżawy Member), Świętomarz–Śniadka section, Bodzentyn Syncline, Łysogóry Region, northern Holy Cross Mountains, associated with conodonts of the hemiansatus to ansatus zones. Thelodont scales referred here to Australolepis sp. cf. A. seddoni come from near Śniadka village, from samples dated as hemiansatus to rhenanus/varcus zones. This increases the known range for the genus from its original find in Western Australia. The presence of a thelodont in the late Middle Devonian in Poland extends the known distribution of turiniids around the peri-Gondwana shorelines of Palaeotethys.

Opis:
Regional tectonic synthesis suggests that a segment of the bipartite eastern Gondwana-type Carpathian-Balkan nappe-stacked Getic/Kučaj/Supragetic basement (eastern Serbia) experienced Cambro-Ordovician Cenerian (Sardic) accretionary-type deformation. The Ordovician basement of the Alpine Getic/Kučaj nappe exposes an earlier-mapped shallow-marine transgressive-type Fe-silicate-rich ironstone sequence. The Ordovician ironstone is used as second-order evidence of a hitherto untraceable tectonically-driven unconformity. Early Paleozoic compression is consistent with the controversial latest Cambrian to intra-Ordovician Cenerian (Sardic) interval, documented by (i) a 488 Ma metamorphic event and available detrital zircon data (Serbo-Macedonian gneissic unit), (ii) a deformed Lower Ordovician Getic/Kučaj brachiopod assembly, and (iii) an intra-Ordovician unconformity dividing the Supragetic basement/”Vlasina complex”. The data further imply that mafic gabbro-dominating sills, cropping out in the northern Getic/Kučaj unit, are consistent with Ordovician back-arc activity. The Getic/Kučaj gabbro is Ordovician in age, piercing a Neoproterozoic–Cambrian (Lower Ordovician) Supragetic/”Vlasina complex”, overlain by a transgressive Silurian–Devonian sedimentary sequence. The emergence of Ordovician mafic intrusions reflects submarine volcanism, while deep-water redox conditions were capable of a sustained supply of Fe (similar to Sardinia). In terms of tectono-palaeogeographic reconstructions, the origin of Ordovician shortening and mafic volcanism is often challenged. The latter is broadly analogous with the embryonic eastern Rheic Ocean, corresponding additionally to the Armorican spur and related intra-continental magmatism.

Opis:
In the Balkans, the Serbo-Macedonian Unit (SMU), Serbia, is thrust bounded by the composite Tethyan Vardar Zone and the Carpatho-Balkanides. The SMU actually emerges from beneath the Neoalpine Miocene-Pliocene deposits. Both provenance and geodynamic position of the SMU are poorly known and still debated. This paper reviews the data hitherto published and includes some new field data interpretations. The SMU is composed of a Neoproterozoic-Cambrian high-grade (para- and ortho-) gneiss with peraluminous magmatic arc components (560-470 Ma). The SMU is in the contact with Neoproterozoic upper Ordovician-Carboniferous low-grade metasedimentary succession of an accretionary wedge assembly represented by the Supragetic basement. The SMU basement became folded, sheared and metamorphosed around 490-450 Ma. Paleomagnetic data point to high southern latitudes and a peri-Gondwanan position of the SMU at that time, which concurs with glaciomarine evidence recorded from the upper Ordovician sediments at the base of an accretionary wedge succession. Based on the published data and field survey in the Stalać region, we correlate the SMU with the pre-Mesozoic gneiss terrane exposed in the Strona-Ceneri zone of the Alps. This terrane, identified as the Cenerian orogen of the Alaskan subduction type, developed at an active margin of Gondwana during middle Ordovician times. The SMU basement, with augen and migmatitic gneisses and arc-related peraluminous magmatic bodies, developed at this margin as part of the Cenerian belt or its equivalent. Such an orogenic edifice proved transient and in the earliest Silurian the SMU fragments drifted away being bound for Baltica (amalgamated Moesian microplate and Danubian terrane) to which they became accreted in the Carboniferous and included in the southern European branch of the Variscan orogen (Marginal Dacides/Carpatho-Balkanides). Despite consider-able Variscan and Alpine reworking, the pre-Variscan, Cenerian-type crustal assembly along with an inferred boundary between the magmatic arc and the accretionary wedge, accompanied by back-arc/forearc deposits, are still decipherable in the Western Balkan countries.

Opis:
The genus Leinzia is a typical member of the renowned Artinskian–Wuchiapingian (Permian) endemic bivalve fauna of the Passa Dois Group, Paraná Basin, Brazil. The extraordinary shells of Leinzia, characterized by a rostrum extending from the anterior cardinal margin led certain authors to regard them as bivalved arthropods (Spinicaudata). Due to the unusual morphology and typically poor preservation of the available specimens, the taxonomic position of Leinzia still remains obscure. Leinzia has been variously referred either to the Pterioida, the Crassatelloidea, the Sanguinolitidae, or the Megadesmidae, or to the Pholadomyida. Herein, based on a detailed review of the topotype material and description of newly found specimens of Leinzia from the Serrinha Member, Rio do Rasto Formation, southern Brazil, we shed light on the taxonomic position of this genus. The hinge of the right valve with its large, blunt, anteriorly inclined subumbonal tooth and corresponding socket in the left valve coupled with the absence of true lateral teeth indicate close affinities to Pyramus and Cowperesia. Thus, the data here strongly suggest a Pachydomidae (Edmondioidea) rather than a Crassatelloidea affinity for Leinzia. Conversely, Leinzia differs from all other known Pachydomidae due to its anteriorly rostrate and posteriorly elongated shell. Finally, detailed stratigraphic data indicate that the vertical distribution of Leinzia is constrained to the middle part of the Guadalupian Serrinha Member of the Rio do Rasto Formation.

Opis:
A diverse microvertebrate fauna is described from the Virgin Hills and Napier formations, Bugle Gap Limestone Canning Basin, Western Australia. Measured sections at Horse Spring and Casey Falls (Virgin Hills Formation) and South Oscar Range (Napier Formation) comprise proximal to distal slope carbonates ranging in age from the Late Devonian Frasnian to middle Famennian. A total of 18 chondrichthyan taxa are identified based on teeth, including the first record of Thrinacodus tranquillus, Cladoides wildungensis, Protacrodus serra and Lissodus lusavorichi from the Canning Basin. A new species, Diademodus dominicus sp. nov. is also described and provides the first record of this genus outside of Laurussia. In addition, the upper range of Australolepis seddoni has been extended to Late Devonian conodont Zone 11, making it the youngest known occurrence for this species. The Virgin Hills and Napier formations microvertebrate faunas show close affinities to faunas recovered from other areas of Gondwana, including eastern Australia, Iran, Morocco and South China, which is consistent with known conodont and trilobite faunas of the same age.

Opis:
A second specimen of the Australian cimolodontan multituberculate Corriebaatar marywaltersae from the same locality (Flat Rocks) as the holotype and previously only known specimen, reveals far more anatomical information about the species. The new specimen, composed of most of a dentary containing a complete p4 and alveoli for the lower incisor and the lower first and second molars, exhibits a suite of features consistent with allocation of Corriebaatar to Cimolodonta and further confirms the presence of multituberculates on Gondwana during the Mesozoic. The revised (older) age of the Flat Rocks locality to latest Barremian (mid-Early Cretaceous) establishes C. marywaltersae as the oldest currently known cimolodontan. This has profound biogeographic implications for the distribution of multituberculates on Gondwana as well as globally, particularly in light of the fact that Corriebaatar appears to be a relatively derived member of Cimolodonta.

A dentary fragment containing a tiny left plagiaulacoid fourth lower premolar from the Early Cretaceous (Aptian) of Victoria provides the first evidence of the Multituberculata from Australia. This unique specimen represents a new genus and species, Corriebaatar marywaltersae, and is placed in a new family, Corriebaataridae. The Australian fossil, together with meagre records of multituberculates from South America, Africa, and Madagascar, reinforces the view that Multituberculata had a cosmopolitan distribution during the Mesozoic, with dispersal into eastern Gondwana probably occurring prior to enforcement of climatic barriers (indicated by marked differentiation in regional floras) in the Early Cretaceous.

Opis:
Abelisaurid theropods were one of the most diverse groups of predatory dinosaurs in Gondwana during the Cretaceous. The group is characterized by a tall, wide skull and robust cervical region. This morphology is thought to have facilitated specialized feeding behaviors such as prolonged contact with prey. The Late Cretaceous abelisaurid Majungasaurus crenatissimus typifies this abelisaurid cranial morphotype. Recent fossil discoveries of this species include a partial growth series that allows for the first time an investigation of ontogenetic variation in cranial morphology in a representative abelisaurid. Herein we examine growth trajectories in the shape of individual cranial bones and articulated skulls of Majungasaurus using geometric morphometrics. Several major changes in skull shape were observed through ontogeny, including an increase in the height of the jugal, postorbital, and quadratojugal, an increase in the extent of the contacts between bones, and a decrease in the circumference of the orbit. The skull transitions from relatively short in the smallest individual to tall and robust in large adults, as is seen in other theropods. Such morphological change during ontogeny would likely have resulted in different biomechanical properties and feeding behaviors between small and large individuals. These findings provide a post-hatching developmental framework for understanding the evolution of the distinctive tall skull morphology seen in abelisaurids and other large-sized theropod dinosaurs.

Opis:
A new mammal−bearing locality from the Intertrappean beds (Maastricthian) of Rangapur, Andhra Pradesh, India provides isolated teeth referable to Deccanolestes and a new eutherian, Sahnitherium rangapurensis. Dental comparisons with Cimolestes, Procerberus, and Aboletylestes do not support proposed “palaeoryctoid” affinities for Deccanolestes. Although similarities exist with Otlestes and Batodon, Deccanolestes is currently considered to be of uncertain familial affinities. Sahnitherium rangapurensis exhibits similarities to Procerberus, Paranyctoides, Alostera, Aboletylestes, and Avitotherium, but it is here placed within Eutheria incertae sedis. Despite family level taxonomic uncertainties, the new material confirms the presence of eutherians on the Indian subcontinent during the Late Cretaceous. A Eurasian connection via an early collision or some other dispersal route may explain these paleobiogeographic data, but other hypotheses are considered. In particular, paleogeographic, paleontological, and molecular systematic data hint that boreosphenidan mammals may have had wider distribution on Gondwana during the Cretaceous than previously supported.
