The Cretaceous-Tertiary biotic transition

TL;DR: The current state of the Cretaceous-Tertiary (K-T) biostratigraphical record is reviewed for most major fossil clades, including: calcareous nannoplankton, dinoflagellates, diatoms, radiolaria, foraminifera, ostracodes, scleractinian corals, bryozoans, brachio-pods, molluscs, echinoderms, fish, amphibians, reptiles and terrestrial plants as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI

Tectonics from fossils? Analysis of reef-coral and sea-urchin distributions from late Cretaceous to Recent, using a new method

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present area cladograms for Recent and Lower Miocene corals and echinoids, and for Eocene and late Cretaceous (Campanian-Maastrichtian) echinoid.
Journal ArticleDOI

Diverse staghorn corals (Acropora) in high-latitude Eocene assemblages: implications for the evolution of modern diversity patterns of reef corals

TL;DR: Eocene fossils from southern England and northern France are examined and found evidence that precursors of up to nine of 20 currently recognized Acropora species groups existed 49–34 Myr, at palaeolatitudes far higher than current limits, to 51° N.

Biodiversity hotspots, evolution and coral reef biogeography: a review

TL;DR: In this article, Hoeksema et al. identified three small regional terrestrial hotspots within the Indo-Australian Archipelago (IAA) for tropical shallow marine taxa, in all cases, the IAA contains the hottest part of the world's largest biodiversity hotspot.
