TL;DR: All marine groups studied suggest the exclusion of Cabo Verde from the remaining Macaronesian archipelagos and thus, CaboVerde should be given the status of a biogeographic subprovince within the West African Transition province.

TL;DR: In this paper, a sequence of Neogene tempestite deposits was incorporated in the island edifice by the ongoing volcanic activity and later exposed through uplift and erosion, and the water depth at the time of deposition could be inferred, constituting an excellent case study to gain insight on the still enigmatic processes of insular shelf deposition.

TL;DR: The influence of the last glaciation on the shallow-water marine malacofauna of the Azores Islands is reviewed in this article, where the authors compare the fossil mollusc fauna of Prainha, Praia do Calhau and Lagoinhas Pleistocene outcrops with the recent mollus species of Azores islands, and find no evidence supporting the hypothesis that most of the marine organisms now present in these islands recolonized the islands after the last glacial maximum.

TL;DR: In this paper, a comprehensive review of the biota living in the mid North Atlantic during the late Neogene and the Quaternary is presented, focusing on the MIS 5e fossil record of the Azores archipelago.

TL;DR: In this article, a detailed analysis regarding a 10-m-thick bivalve-dominated fossil assemblage exposed at Pedra-que-pica on Santa Maria Island in the Azores is presented.
