Geological reassessment of syn-rift extensional sequences in the Shine Usny Tolgod and Dzun Shakhai fossil localities, Eastern Gobi Basin, Mongolia
Journal Article Sedimentology · June 1, 2025 Sedimentary infill patterns in the Eastern Gobi Basin of southern Mongolia record a complex, polyphased history. Asynchronous timing and intensities of extensional tectonism during the Early Cretaceous fragmented the Eastern Gobi Basin into a series of sub ... Full text CiteNew craniodental materials of Falcarius utahensis (Theropoda: Therizinosauria) reveal patterns of intraspecific variation and cranial evolution in early coelurosaurians
Journal Article Anatomical Record · January 1, 2025 Despite documented ecomorphological shifts toward an herbivorous diet in several coelurosaurian lineages, the evolutionary tempo and mode of these changes remain poorly understood, hampered by sparse cranial materials for early representatives of major cla ... Full text CiteMammal-bearing gastric pellets potentially attributable to Troodon formosus at the Cretaceous Egg Mountain locality, Two Medicine Formation, Montana, USA
Journal Article Palaeontology · September 1, 2021 Fossil gastric pellets (regurgitalites) have distinct taphonomic characteristics that facilitate inferences of behavioural ecology in deep time, despite their rarity in the fossil record. Using the taphonomic patterns of both extant and fossil small mammal ... Full text CiteEducation, Training & Certifications
