Journal ArticleDOI
Neoselachian (Chondrichthyes, Elasmobranchii) diversity across the Cretaceous–Tertiary boundary
Jürgen Kriwet,Michael J. Benton +1 more
TL;DR: It is shown that neoselachian sharks suffered a major extinction at the K/T boundary, and full diversity of the different shark and batoid groups had been recovered by the end of the Paleocene or early Eocene.
Journal ArticleDOI
Permian-Triassic Osteichthyes (bony fishes): diversity dynamics and body size evolution.
Carlo Romano,Martha B. Koot,Ilja Kogan,Arnaud Brayard,Alla V. Minikh,Winand Brinkmann,Hugo Bucher,Hugo Bucher,Jürgen Kriwet +8 more
TL;DR: Patterns in Permian–Triassic bony fishes, a group whose evolutionary dynamics are understudied, are reviewed and a general trend from low osteichthyan diversity in thePermian to higher levels in the Triassic is suggested.
Journal ArticleDOI
Diversification trajectories and evolutionary life-history traits in early sharks and batoids
TL;DR: Early Jurassic expansion of neoselachians was opportunistic in the aftermath of the end-Triassic mass extinction and the reasons for their rapid diversification and radiation probably include small body size, short lifespans and oviparity, enabling faster ecological reorganizations and innovations in body plans for adapting to changing environmental conditions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Palaeoecology and depositional environments of the Tendaguru Beds (Late Jurassic to Early Cretaceous, Tanzania)
Martin Aberhan,Robert Bussert,Wolf-Dieter Heinrich,Eckhart Schrank,Stephan Schultka,Benjamin Sames,Jürgen Kriwet,Saidi Kapilima +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present sedimentological and palaeontological data collected by the German-Tanzanian Tendaguru Expedition 2000 in an attempt to reconstruct the palaeo-ecosystems of the Tendagurus Beds at their type locality.
Journal ArticleDOI
Molecular phylogeny and node time estimation of bioluminescent Lantern Sharks (Elasmobranchii: Etmopteridae).
TL;DR: An extensive DNA dataset is compiled to estimate the first molecular phylogeny of the Etmopteridae and to provide node age estimates for the origin and diversification for this enigmatic group of deep-sea Lantern Sharks.
