Yet more of 'em
Ok, boys and girls, her's another batch o' refs for your perusal.
First at bat is a very odd paper:
Hasegawa, Y., M. Manabe, S. Isaji, M. Ohkura, I. Shibata & I. Yamaguchi.
1995. Terminally resorbed iguanodontid teeth from the Neocomian
Tetori Group, Ishikawa and Gifu Prefecture, Japan. Bull. National
Science Museum, Tokyo, Ser. C 21(1/2):35-49.
Strange paper in that the supposed iguanodontid teeth are incredibly
scrappy things previously referred to as "ornithischian" but here
identified as really iguanodontid. They are amazingly scrappy things and
I'll have to wait on someone else to look at them. Just the bases of
the teeth with the tips - most of the teeth from what I can see - are
not there.
Some more early mammals, this time from Morocco:
Sigogneau-Russell, D. 1994(1995). Further data and reflexions on the
tribosphenid mammals (Tribotheria) from the Early Cretaceous of
Morocco. Bull. Mus. Natl. Hist. Naturl. Paris, 4th Ser., Sect. C,
16(2/4):291-312.
Batch o' teeth (11). Boy has the AMNH stuff spoiled me...
In that same issue:
Jalil, N.-E. 1994(1995)> Morphological study of phylogenetic significance
of the braincase of an archosauriform (Diapsida, Archosauromorpha) from
the Triassic of the Zarzaitine Series (Algeria). BMNHNP4thC 16(2/4):281-289.
Pretty ugly braincase (the paper's in French by the way) attributed to the
clade Archosauria + Proterochampsidae with some discussion.
And continuing the trend of scrappy material:
Shishkin, M.A. 1994. A Gondwanan Rhytidosteid (Amphibia, Temnospondyli)
from the Lower Triassic of Southern Cisuralia. Paleontological
Journal 28(4):127-143.
The first typical rhtidosteid found outside Gondwanaland in Lower Triassic
sediments of Cisuralia. Assigned to Rhytidosteus uralensis. Suggests this
means that Lystrosaurus Zone stuff equates to almost entire Lower Triassic
elsewhere. Yow - all this from a partial lower jaw.
Well, that's it for now b&g. I hope we get some more complete stuff in the
next batch
