Twenty paleogeographic maps are presented for Middle Eocene (Lutetian) to Late Pliocene
times according to the stratigraphical data given in the companion paper by Berger et al. this …

We present a general stratigraphic synthesis for the Upper Rhine Graben (URG) and the
Swiss Molasse Basin (SMB) from Eocene to Pliocene times. The stratigraphic data were …

The biostratigraphy and diversity patterns of terrestrial, hoofed mammals help to understand
the transition between the Palaeogene and the Neogene in Western Europe. Three phases …

The Agenian is the earliest Neogene European Land Mammal Age. It encompasses the
mammalian zones MN1 (23.03–22.7 Ma) and MN2 (22.7–20.0 Ma) and roughly coincides with …

A newly discovered, well-preserved skull and associated fragment of a juvenile mandible
from the Early Oligocene locality of Poillat (Canton Jura, NW Switzerland), bearing close …

Since the first exploitation of the Huppersandstones quarry of Rickenbach (Canton
Solothurn, Switzerland) in 1898, many fossils of plants, molluscs, and vertebrates have been …

Since its first erection almost 200 years ago, palaeontologists have assigned to the genus
Anthracotherium many species, some with dubious descriptions. Although it is a key taxon for …

Terrestrial climatic data reflect variable and often conflicting responses to the global cooling
event at the Eocene-Oligocene transition (ca. 34 Ma). Stable isotopic compositions of the …

Amynodontidae is a family of Rhinocerotoidea (Mammalia, Perissodactyla) known from the
late Early Eocene to the latest Oligocene, in North America and Eurasia. European …

Reduction of the anterior dentition (ie incisors and canines) is a major adaptative trait of the
Rhinocerotidae among Perissodactyla. However, the corresponding evolutionary sequence …
