A baenid turtle shell from the Mesaverde Formation (Campanian, Late Cretaceous) of Park County, Wyoming, USA by Wu, Ka Yan, Heuck, Jared, Varriale, Frank J., Farke, Andrew

“…The preserved portions of the carapace are smooth and unornamented, and the overall oval dorsal profile of the shell is similar to taxa such as Neurankylus spp. The anterior plastral lobe in the new specimen is squared off in profile as seen in Neurankylus spp., unlike the more rounded or triangular condition in Boremys spp., Eubaena hatcheri, and Baena spp., among others. …”

Urbanization enhances body condition, but not innate immune defences, in a common waterbird by Amelia Chyb, Kevin D. Matson, Radosław Włodarczyk, Joanna Drzewińska-Chańko, Piotr Minias

“…There is a growing body of evidence that urbanization can affect body condition and immune function in wild birds, although these effects may be complex and taxa-specific. Here, we assessed the effects of urbanization on body condition (size-corrected body mass and haemoglobin concentration) and innate immune defences (haemolysis–haemagglutination assay, haptoglobin concentration and bacterial killing assay) in 136 Eurasian coots (Fulica atra) from three urban and three non-urban populations across Poland. …”

The sensitivity of reconstructed carbon dioxide concentrations to stomatal preparation methods using a leaf gas exchange model by Michael D. Machesky, Nathan D. Sheldon, Michael T. Hren, Selena Y. Smith

“…Further study is needed on the fractionation due to carboxylation of ribulose bisphosphate (RuBP) in individual plant species before use as a paleo‐CO2 barometer and to refine estimates based upon widely applied taxa (e.g., Ginkgo). Finally, we recommend that morphological measurements be made by multiple observers to reduce the effect of individual observational biases.…”

Devonian-Carboniferous boundary beds in the Vorkuta transverse uplift (Bolshaya Usa River) by A.V. Zhuravlev, A.N. Plotitsyn, Y.A. Vevel, A.V. Erofeevskiy

“…The position of the Devonian-Carboniferous boundary in the study section is defined by the first occurrence of conodonts Patrognathus crassus, Pseudopolygnathus cf. primus and foraminifers Earlandia cf. minima and E. elegans. These taxa can be considered as markers of the boundary in shallow-water facies of the carbonate platform.…”
