Abstract:
Robert M. Kleinpell (1905-1986) has been called the founder of a ‘Berkeley School of West Coast Cenozoic Stratigraphic Paleontology’. Through his personal experiences in carrying out oil exploration in California's Cenozoic stratigraphic successions, his extensive inquiry into the fundamentals of stratigraphic paleontology, and his teaching activity while held in a Japanese prison camp during World War II, Kleinpell developed the basic ingredients for his school of stratigraphic paleontology. His school attracted numbers of students interested in obtaining employment in the oil industry when Kleinpell joined the Department of Paleontology at University of California, Berkeley, in 1953. Kleinpell told his students that the first step toward a basic understanding of stratigraphic geology came from field mapping and recording of all relevant data. The data included collecting fossils from precisely-positioned stratigraphic levels. The fossil occurrence information was then plotted carefully to ascertain associations of taxa that appeared to be unique. The associations that appeared to be unique in time, based on their stratigraphic positions (Kleinpell came to term these ‘congregations’), were used to recognize zones and stages. Kleinpell was firm in his conviction that the zones and stages that he and his students recognized in American West Coast Cenozoic strata were closely similar in principle to the zones and Zonengruppe of Albert Oppel who had worked with ammonite faunas in the European Jurassic. Kleinpell did not publish a diagram or definition of the zones that he espoused because, he said, Oppel had already defined that type of zone. Hollis Hedberg, Kleinpell's former fellow-student in graduate study at Stanford, did include a discussion of the ‘zone’ of Oppel and Kleinpell in the 1976 International Stratigraphic Guide. Subsequent international and American stratigraphic guides and codes have omitted Hedberg's discussion and illustration of the Oppel zone. The West Coast Cenozoic zones and stages, recognized using the methodology established by Oppel, are a primary characteristic of the Berkeley School of Stratigraphic Paleontology.

Abstract:
Carcharocles megalodon is considered a macropredatory shark that inhabited the seas around the world from middle Miocene to late Pliocene. In Argentina, it has only been formally recorded at two localities. Here, we report the first record for this taxon in the Buenos Aires Province. This occurrence is based on an isolated tooth recovered on the beach at the Punta Médanos locality, which lacks clear stratigraphic context. Based on the regional geology, the specimen probably came from Pliocene beds. Its size indicates that it probably belongs to a juvenile individual. Keywords: Carcharocles megalodon, macropredatory shark, fossil teeth, Mar de Ajó.

Abstract:
For most of the twentieth century, paleontology instruction focused on memorization of taxa, morphology, and stratigraphic ranges. Consequently, paleontology got the reputation as a boring, stagnant, musty old field with this “idiographic” approach that focused on details at the expense of the broader implications. The “Paleobiology Revolution” of the 1960s and 1970s radically changed paleontological pedagogy. New generations of paleontologists who were weaned on the 1972 Raup and Stanley textbook (which had no systematic coverage of invertebrates) adopted a more dynamic, “law-like” or “nomothetic” approach. The emphasis on ideas, concepts, and controversies over memorization of names and dates makes paleontology far more interesting and relevant to geology majors, most of whom will not become paleontologists and will not need huge numbers of names to do their jobs. However, paleontology instructors still must include basic information about the major phyla of fossils or else the theoretical ideas lack any reference in reality. My own approach mixes both theoretical and systematic concepts, with lectures on major topics (taphonomy, ontogeny, population variation, speciation, micro and macroevolution, extinction, paleoecology, biogeography, functional morphology) alternating with lectures supplementing lab exercises.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT Modern paleontology in Turkey appeared in the early nineteenth century, together with the first modern geological studies. The fossils collected in these studies were initially used to establish biostratigraphy and to make the first geological maps of the country. Paleontologists were involved in these studies from the beginning; the earliest identifications of new animal and plant taxa from Turkey occurred in the same century along with the detailed descriptions of the rich and diverse Turkish fossil record. Aside from the academic studies, some paleontologists also took part in the economic side by contributing to stratigraphic analysis of coal beds or participating in petroleum exploration. All these pioneering works on the geology and paleontology of Turkey were done by foreigners; however, the outcomes of this newly introduced science were quickly appreciated by Ottoman Turkey. During the middle of the nineteenth century, the first text mentioning geological processes was written by the head scholar of the Imperial School of Military Engineering, while the first geology classes began to be taught under the Imperial Medical School in Istanbul, in which the first natural history collection was also established. Unfortunately, not a single original study in paleontology was produced by Ottoman citizens, with the notable exception of an Austrian immigrant of Hungarian descent, possibly because of a lack of a real interest in earth sciences.

Abstract:
The study of the carbonate clasts and matrix of a problematic sedimentary formation (the Gugu Breccia) from the Pădurea Craiului Mountains reveals new information concerning its depositional environment and stratigraphic position. The identified microfacies and micropaleontological assemblages demonstrate that all the sampled limestone clasts from the Gugu Breccia represent remnants of a fragmented Urgonian-type carbonate platform. The Barremian age of the clasts suggests that the stratigraphic position of the Gugu Breccia at its type locality could be uppermost Barremian-lowermost Aptian, a fact demonstrated also by the absence of elements from Lower Cretaceous carbonate platforms higher in the stratigraphic column (e.g., Aptian or Albian) of the Bihor Unit. The sedimentological observations together with the matrix mineralogy bring new arguments for the recognition of terrigenous input during the formation of the Gugu Breccia.

Full text
Abstract:
The Upper Cretaceous Nanaimo Group of southwest British Columbia is a >4 km-thick succession consisting mostly of deep marine siliciclastics deposited directly on the Insular Superterrane. As such, this succession has been the focus of several paleomagnetic, isotope geochemistry, paleontology, and sedimentology studies in attempts to elucidate the tectonic history and paleolatitude of the Insular Superterrane and associated entities during the critical time of Nanaimo Group deposition (ca. 90–65 Ma). However, disagreement as to whether deposition occurred into a single or multiple basins has led to confusion concerning the formal stratigraphy and formation names for the succession, and has resulted in problems with both local and regional correlations. The upper two-thirds of the succession is continuously and well exposed on Denman and Hornby islands and represents the best example of this part of the succession in the northern half of what we consider the single Nanaimo Basin. This area includes the previously only informally defined type areas for the Geoffrey and Spray formations, defined here formally for the first time with type sections and detailed descriptions. New interpretations of the geology of these islands demonstrate that previously interpreted major faults do not exist, resulting in stratigraphic and age controls that are both different and simpler than previously interpreted. The redefined stratigraphy of the northern part of the basin is remarkably similar to that of southern areas in both type and age, affirming both a single basin evolution and a single stratigraphic nomenclature.

Here we document the presence of the successive species Anglonautilus praeundulatus Lehmann et al., Anglonautilus undulatus (Sowerby) and Anglonautilus dorsoplicatus (Wiedmann) from the Cretaceous of France. The stratigraphic range of Anglonautilus Spath, hitherto unknown before Aptian times is extended downward to the Hauterivian. The Hauterivian species Nautilus begudensis Kilian & Reboul, sometimes assigned to the genus Anglonautilus Spath, is revised and re-assigned to the genus Cymatoceras Hyatt.

Abstract:
Abstract The leaves of the genus Pseudotorellia from the Upper Jurassic–Lower Cretaceous of the Bureya Basin (Russian Far East) have been revised. The similarity of Pseudotorellia angustifolia Doludenko and P. longifolia Doludenko in the morphology and epidermal characters suggests that P. longifolia is a synonym of P. angustifolia. Leaves of this genus from the Bureya Basin previously assigned to P. ensiformis (Heer) Doludenko according to both morphological and epidermal characters are described as a new species P. doludenkoae sp. nov., since the type specimens of P.ensiformis from the Irkutsk Basin do not have preserved cuticles and their leaf epidermal characters are unknown. The epidermal characters of leaves described previously as Pseudotorellia pulchella and P. crassifolia have been studied for the first time. Since these species have similar morphological and epidermal characters, they are described as P. crassifolia, and its emended diagnosis is provided. The well-defined epidermal characters of Pseudotorellia allow us to reliably assign even cuticle fragments and dispersed cuticles to a particular species. This indicates a large stratigraphic potential of the Pseudotorellia species for the intrabasin and interregional stratigraphy of continental deposits, especially when studying the core material and coals, where the preservation of plant remains usually does not allow describing their morphology. The revision of all known occurrences of Pseudotorellia angustifolia makes it possible to discuss the place and time of the first appearance of this species and its subsequent distribution in space and time. Apparently, this species appeared in the Early Jurassic of Eastern Siberia (Kansk Basin). In the Middle Jurassic, its range expanded both to the northwest (Tomsk oblast and Yamal-Nenets Autonomous Okrug), where this species was preserved until the Late Jurassic, and to the east (Irkutsk oblast, Khabarovsk krai (Bureya Basin)), where it survived until the Early Cretaceous.

Abstract:
A narrow upper Paleozoic belt crops out in the northern tip of Sierra de Tecka through the Quebrada de Güera-Peña (Patagonia, Argentina). There, black shales of the Pampa de Tepuel Formation contain marine fossil invertebrates previously listed as belonging to the “Levipustula” fauna. Material recently recorded by the authors comprises, in order of abundance, gastropods [Glabrocingulum (Glabrocingulum) poperimense (Maxwell), G. (Stenozone) argentinum (Reed), G. (Stenozone) sp., Peruvispira teckaensis sp. nov., Ananias riccardii Pinilla], bivalves [Nuculopsis (Nuculopsis) patagoniensis González, Phestia tepuelensis González, Streblochondria sueroi González, Streblopteria sp.], conulariids [Paraconularia cf. ugartei Cúneo and Sabattini], brachiopods [Amosia sueroi Simanauskas, Languigneotus laevicaudatum (Amos), Beecheria patagonica Amos], trilobites [Australosutura argentinensis Hahn and Hahn], cephalopods [Pseudoorthoceratidae Flower and Caster, Sueroceras? sp., Mitorthoceras? sp.], and rugose corals [?Lophophyllidiidae Moore and Jeffords]. In addition, the present study includes the new key brachiopods Languigneotus dammanorum gen. et sp. nov. and Tuberculatella waterhousei sp. nov. from younger localities of the Tepuel-Genoa Basin. The Languigneotus laevicaudatum and Languigneotus-Verchojania subzones (late Pennsylvanian) are proposed herein to replace the former Tuberculatella Zone. In addition, previous stratigraphic relationships and correlations of the study section with the Arroyo Pescado (Estancia Ap Iwan) and Esquel areas are discussed. The general stratigraphic profile of a glacial-related section cropping out at Estancia Ap Iwan includes lower conglomeradic beds, which are reinterpreted as early Jurassic in age, and glacimarine levels that are partially equivalent to the Pampa de Tepuel Formation but older than those of Quebrada de Güera-Peña. A correlation of the Esquel Formation with the Arroyo Pescado Formation and other contemporaneous units on the paleopacific margin is assessed, implying that the Esquel Formation should be segregated from the Tepuel Group. The Esquel and Arroyo Pescado formations can be regarded as the basement of the glaciomarine column of the Tepuel-Genoa Basin.

Abstract:
The Calama and eastern Pampa del Tamarugal Basins are located between 22°S and 23°S within the forearc of northern Chile. They are filled by sediments deposited in alluvial braidplain, fluvial, playa sandflat, lacustrine and volcaniclastic environments under a semi-arid to hyper-arid climate. The nature of the alluvial braidplain depositional environment is unusual in that it combines elements of both alluvial fan and fluvial depositional systems, in contradiction to recently published models of alluvial fan sedimentation. Detailed sedimentary logging, magnetostratigraphy and dating of 14 volcanic interbeds by the 40Ar/39Ar laser fusion method has established a lithostratigraphic and chronostratigraphic framework for the 700 m thick basin-fill. Basin formation was investigated by regional subsidence during the Late Eocene or Early Oligocene, followed by widespread alluvial braidplain deposition during the Oligocene(?). A change to fluvial and playa sandflat deposition during the Early to Mid-Miocene is considered to be coincident with a decrease in active subsidence. Sedimentation ceased and thick (25 m) gypcrete deposits developed along the eastern margin of the basin during the Mid-Miocene as a response to an increasingly arid climate. Phases of minor lacustrine, fluvial and alluvial braidplain deposition during the Late Miocene-Early-Pliocene and the Late Pliocene(?) to Pleistocene were primarily controlled by small-scale fault movements and folding events, although climatic variations may have been important in some cases. A new lithostratigraphic division of the basin-fill is proposed here, which comprises 13 different formations. The previously defined El Loa Formation comprises a number of depositional units which are spatially and temporally discrete formations, and is therefore awarded group status.

Resumo: Lycopodiopsis derbyi é a espécie à qual mais comumente se relacionam os fragmentos caulinares licofíticos encontrados em estratos guadalupianos da Bacia do Paraná. Tipicamente caracteriza-se por um cilindro vascular sifonostélico com o anel descontínuo cortado por raios medulares e pela presença de almofadas foliares rômbicas com vesícula infrafoliar e cicatrizes foliares sem sinais de páricnos. Microfilos fragmentados geralmente ocorrem associados aos caules. Aqui foram tomadas três localidades no estado de São Paulo (de afloramentos da Formação Corumbataí), uma no estado do Paraná e uma em Santa Catarina (ambas de afloramentos da Formação Teresina) para as quais se estudaram os caules e microfilos de licófitas encontrados. Os caules foram diagnosticados como L. derbyi. Análises morfológicas levaram a sugestão de um possível modelo ontogenético relacionando as almofadas foliares e o diâmetro dos ramos. Nas análises anatômicas interpretou-se o córtex de maneira diferente a de autores anteriores. Com base nos dados adquiridos propõe-se uma emenda à diagnose da espécie e ainda sugere-se uma modificação da chave de identificação de Thomas e Meyen (1984) para as Lepidodendrales do Paleozóico superior. Para os microfilos definiu-se uma nova organo-espécie com base em amostras de Piracicaba (SP), Lepidophylloides corumbataensis. Tal organo-espécie é a primeira do gênero formalmente descrita para o Brasil e possivelmente para o Gondwana. Representa ainda o primeiro registro de tecido paliçádico numa espécie de Lepidphylloides. A organização dos fexies de xilema em forma de crescente sugere uma proximidade às espécies da Catásia. A íntima associação com Lycopodiopsis derbyi indica que provavelmente representem as folhas dos mesmos. Compararndo as ocorrências de microfilos estudadas nas formações Teresina e Corumbataí, concluiu-se que na primeira aqueles ocorrem r em menores concentrações e sem anatomia preservada, indicando maior transporte.
Abstract: Master degree dissertation Rafael Souza de Faria Lycopodiopsis derbyi is the most common species to which the lycopod stem fragments found in the Guadalupian strata from the Paraná Basin are assigned. A vascular cylinder represented by a siphonostele with a discontinuous ring crossed by medular rays and the presence of rhombic leaf cushions with infrafoliar bladders and leaf scars without any sign of pharichnos typically characterize the species. Fragmented microphylls occur in general associated with the stems. Here three localities in the state of São Paulo (from outcrops of Corumbataí Formation), one in Paraná state and one in Santa Catarina state (from outcrops of Teresina Formation) where lycopods stems and microphylls are found have been studied. The stems were diagnosed as L. derbyi. Morphological analyses suggest a possible ontogenetic model relating the leaf cushions to the branch diameter. In the anatomical analyses the cortex was interpreted differently from previous authors. Based on the data acquired an emended diagnoses is proposed for the species together with a modification of the Thomas and Meyen's (1984) identification key for the Upper Paleozoic Lepidodendrales. With regard to the microphylls, a new organo-species based on samples from Piracicaba (São Paulo state) was defined, Lepidophylloides corumbatensis. This organo-species is the first of the genus formally described for Brazil and probably for Gondwanaland. It also represents the first register of palisade tissue in a Lepidophylloides species. The xylem bundle organization in crescent shape suggests a close relation with the catasian species The association with Lycopodiopsis derbyi indicates that they represent the leaves of the such stems. Comparing the mycrophylls studied from the Teresina and Corumbataí formations, the ones occuring in the first are commonly in lower concentrations and with no preserved anatomy, indicating more transport.

Full text
Abstract:
The Jurassic litho-biostratigraphy is reviewed and Jurassic depositional models are defined in order to clarify some regional stratigraphic uncertainties and to evaluate the hydrocarbon potential of the Jurassic of the United Arab Emirates (UAE). A thick succession of Triassic-Cretaceous shallow-marine carbonates is exposed in Wadi Naqab, southeast of Ras Al Khaimah in the UAE, Musandam Peninsula. The Jurassic, 1310 m thick, is examined using biostratigraphy, sedimentology and sequence stratigraphy and compared with the Abu Dhabi subsurface. Direct composition of the Jurassic foraminiferal biozones and algal assemblages can be made between Wadi Naqab and the South-Tethyan realm. Palynological data from the subsurface demonstrate that much of the Liassic, which is well represented in the Musandam Peninsula, is missing over most of the Emirates. A ca. 50 Ma time gap was defined within the Abu Dhabi clastic Minjur Formation (previously assigned to the Triassic). The age of the palynoflora of the upper Minjur is Bajocian, while the lower Minjur yielded Late Carnian palynomorphs. The Upper Toarcian and most of the Aalenian is also probably missing in the Musandam Peninsula, as in the subsurface of the Emirates and Saudi Arabia. A new Bajocian foraminifera Pseudodictyopsella jurassica, n. gen., n. sp., was recognised, and the inception of some stromatoporoids was earlier than previously thought. The Liassic of Wadi Naqab is dominantly a metre-scale 5th-order Milankovitch-driven succession composed of peritidal cycles. Cycle tops are commonly marked by corrosion zones and/or karsts. Stacked paleokarsts are found particularly in the Sinemurian and Lower Pliensbachian. In Wadi Naqab, the Middle and Upper Jurassic seem to comprise one shallowing-upward 3rd-order cycle built of abundant 5th-order cycles. As a result of comparisons in this study, the Bajocian Izhara Formation is redefined and a new type-section proposed. Most of the Kimmeridgian and Tithonian are absent in Wadi Naqab, and eastern onshore and offshore Abu Dhabi, as the result of uplift and erosion before deposition of the Lower Cretaceous. Possible major Jurassic (Liassic-Early Kimmeridgian) hydrocarbon plays of Abu Dhabi are: the Marrat lowstand wedge of eastern onshore, the Jurassic onlap of Triassic high blocks in offshore areas, the Minjur lowstand clastics, the offshore Uweinat and Upper Araej and the Upper Jurassic Hadriya and Hanifa reservoirs.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT The concept of biostratigraphy was a significant step in the evolution of geoscience. Alexandre Brongniart (1770–1847) and Georges Cuvier (1769–1832) were key contributors to developing the subdiscipline as they worked to decode the stratigraphy of the Paris Basin in the first decades of the nineteenth century. Their illustrations of fossils, local geologic columns, and a regional geologic map played a decisive role in furthering an understanding of the value of paleontology in the service of illuminating Earth history.
