Triassic turtles from Pangea: The legacy from South America
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2021-01)
The Triassic is a key period in turtle evolution for three main reasons: First, the oldest fully shelled body-fossil records of the clade Testudinata come from Late Triassic (Norian) rocks. Second, tracks attributed ...
The evolution of dermal shield vascularization in Testudinata and Pseudosuchia: phylogenetic constraints versus ecophysiological adaptations
(The Royal Society, 2020-01)
Studies on living turtles have demonstrated that shells are involved in the resistance to hypoxia during apnea via bone acidosis buffering; a process which is complemented with cutaneous respiration, transpharyngeal and ...
Appearances can be deceptive: Bizarre shell microanatomy and histology in a new Triassic turtle (Testudinata) from Argentina at the dawn of turtles
(John Wiley & Sons Ltd, 2021-05)
The origin and homology of the turtle shell is one of the most captivating topics in amniote evolution. In this contribution, we present a new species of turtle from the Late Triassic of Argentina whose peripheral plates ...
