Un estudi liderat per personal investigador de l'ICP analitza la morfologia del radi (un dels dos ossos de l'avantbraç) del primat pliopitecoïdeu Pliobates cataloniae, del Miocè de la península Ibèrica, i n'avalua les implicacions per a l'evolució de la locomoció en els antropomorfs. Un estudio liderado por personal investigador del ICP analiza la morfología del radio (uno de los dos huesos del antebrazo) del primate pliopitecoideo Pliobates cataloniae, del Mioceno de la Península Ibérica, y evalúa sus implicaciones para la evolución de la locomoción en los antropomorfos. A study led by ICP researchers analyzes the morphology of the radius (one of the two forearm bones) of the pliopithecoid primate Pliobates cataloniae, from the Miocene of the Iberian Peninsula, and evaluates its implications for locomotor evolution in apes.

We describe a new fossil raccoon dog from the Late Pliocene site of Jradzor, Armenia, a key site to understand biogeographic connections and dispersal between Asia, Europe, and Africa. The specimens analysed here for the first time exhibit a mosaic of primitive and derived cranial and dental traits, distinguishing them from known taxa such as Nyctereutes tingi (e. [...]

El dia de la marmota de fa milions d'anys : Reconstruir el clima fent servir rosegadors fòssils

Els petits mamífers guarden una estreta relació amb el clima, i els seus fòssils permeten reconstruir la precipitació i les condicions climàtiques del passat. Un estudi de l'Institut Català de Paleontologia Miquel Crusafont (ICP-CERCA) indica que fa entre 12,5 i 9 milions d'anys a la conca del Vallès-Penedès hi plovia el doble que actualment i el clima era subtropical. Los mamíferos pequeños mantienen una relación muy estrecha con el clima, y sus fósiles permiten reconstruir la precipitación y las condiciones climáticas del pasado. Un estudio del Institut Català de Paleontologia Miquel Crusafont (ICP-CERCA) indica que entre hace 12,5 y 9 millones de años en la cuenca del Vallès-Penedès llovía aproximadamente el doble que en la actualidad y el clima era subtropical. Small mammals are closely linked to climate, and their fossils allow scientists to reconstruct past precipitation and climatic conditions. A study by the Institut Català de Paleontologia Miquel Crusafont (ICP-CERCA) reveals that between 12. [...]

The densely sampled and well dated late Aragonian to Vallesian succession (late Middle to early Late Miocene, 12. 5-9. 0 Ma) of the Vallès-Penedès Basin (VP) in Catalonia has yielded one of the richest primate records in Eurasia, including hominoids and pliopithecoids. [...]
