Key-words: Selachians; Late Miocene; Europe; Portugal; Paleoecology A rich uppermost Miocene selachian fauna from the Alvalade Basin (represented by more than 10.000 teeth) is accounted for. It is the most modern miocene fauna of neritic habit under warm-temperate to subtropical conditions, known in the european Miocene.

A propos de l'environnement marin restreint du bassin centro-andin au Maastrichtien

Comptes rendus de l'Académie des sciences. Série 2, Mécanique, Physique, Chimie, Sciences de l'univers, Sciences de la Terre (1992)

M. Gayet Thierry Sempéré Henri Cappetta

On the restricted marine environment of the centro-Andean basin in Maastrichtian time Abstract - Paleontology and sedinrenlology of (he El Molino Forniation (Manstrichtian. Bolivia) and of io Andean eqirivaletits demonstrate that their cleposilion occiirred in a realm at least episodically connected with a sea. These dutn do not sipport the suggestion of a continuous continental in this basin. Abrid,gerf English Version - It was suggested recently (I) on the basis of paleontological and sedimentological data, that the depositional environment of the EI Molino Formation was strictly lacustrinc and consequently that the migration of Cretaceous marine sedimentation to the oriental Andean realm (2) was doubted. We contest this assertion, estimating that the data and interpretations are in part incorrect and one-sided. G. Camoin and J.-M. Rouchy participated in the field trips organized by N1.G. and T.S. for the study of stromatolites and deposition conditions in the Potosi Basin (3). The sections used in their paper (l) (unpublished data of T.S. or made together in the field) indicated the presence of marine fishes, known by these authors ((4)-(9)) and the voluntary omission of these data, because they were in opposition with their interpretation, is not acceptable. We shall restrict ourselves mostly to the paleoichthyological data of the El Molino Forma- tion and correct the inaccurate or incomplete data of Camion et d. A more detailed study has been submitted elsewhere (lo). The EI Molino Formation belongs to the Puca group (Late Jurassic-Paleocene) occurring over 500,000 km2 in the centro-Andean basin which was open to the sea to NNW ((2), (11}- (14)). The ante- and post-El Molino Formations are composed mostly of red pelites. The equivalent of the Chaimica Formation in Peru has yielded marine remains ((2), (15)- (17)). The EI Molino Formation is composed of green to black marls with intercalations of thin calcareous levels, of which some are turbidites. At the base are sandstones, oolitic grainstones, stromatolitic boundstones and marls. Evaporites are rare. This formation consists of the Peruvian equivalents of three transgressive-regressive sequences (( 141-1: 151, ( 1 SI-( 191); the lower part of each shows transgressive facies with marine ichthyofauna ( 151. A shallow marine environment was at first supposed (20) but reinterpretation suggested deposition in a confined basin (21). A lacustrine environment was already proposed (22) but the paleontological data oppose this interpretation.

Devil rays (Chondrichthyes:Mobula) of the Arabian Seas, with a redescription ofMobula kuhlii(Valenciennes in Müller and Henle, 1841)

Aquatic Conservation Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems (2016)

Giuseppe Notarbartolo di Sciara Daniel Fernando Sylvain Adnet Henri Cappetta Rima W. Jabado

Abstract Devil rays (genus Mobula ) are pelagic elasmobranchs widely distributed throughout tropical, subtropical and warm‐temperate waters. Their occurrence and distribution remains poorly documented in the Arabian Seas region. A review is provided of species occurrence in these water bodies along with a synthesis of regional information on their biology and ecology. Based on the available evidence, five Mobula species occur in the region ( M . eregoodootenkee , M . japanica , M . kuhlii , M . tarapacana , and M . thurstoni ). Of these, three ( M . eregoodootenkee , M . tarapacana and M . thurstoni ) were found to occur in the Red Sea, and three ( M . eregoodootenkee , M . japanica , and M . kuhlii ) were found to occur in the Arabian/Persian Gulf. Mobula japanica and M . kuhlii are reported here for the first time in Gulf waters. All five species were found in the Indian Ocean waters between the Gulf of Aden and Pakistan. To address the still uncertain taxonomy of M . kuhlii , a redescription of this species is provided based on a sample of fresh specimen material. Mobula diabolus is a nomen ambiguum , never used to unambiguously designate any newly described species, and its use should be avoided. Considering the life‐history traits that make these species particularly vulnerable to fishing pressure, current levels of exploitation in by‐catch fisheries are unlikely to be sustainable, despite the fact that the trade in gill plates does not seem to be prevalent in this region. Critical knowledge gaps unfortunately still exist, crippling effective management and conservation actions. Copyright © 2016 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Sclerorhynchid teeth (Neoselachii, Sclerorhynchidae) from the Late Cretaceous of the Quiriquina Formation, central Chile

Revista geológica de Chile (2004)

Mario E. Suárez Henri Cappetta

The rostral tooth morphology of Ischyrhiza chilensis (Philippi, 1887) is examined on the basis of a new material from the Maastrichtian of the Quiriquina Formation, central Chile. Oral teeth of a new sclerorhynchid, Biropristis landbecki gen. et sp. nov., are described from the same formation of the Algarrobo locality. These discoveries provide new and important data on the diversity and the paleobiogeography of Sclerorhynchidae, still poorly known in the Pacific realm of the southern hemisphere.
