Valsequillo biostratigraphy. IV: Proboscidean ecospecies in Paleoindian sites.

TL;DR: Five proboscidean species have been found in Paleoindian sites from North to South America: two open-country adaptations, Mammuthus columbi and Cuvieronius tarijensis, two woodland and riparian forms, Mammut americanum and mammuthus jeffersonii, and one tropical savanna species, Haplomastodon chimborazi.
Journal ArticleDOI

New single amino acid hydroxyproline radiocarbon dates for two problematic American Mastodon fossils from Alaska

TL;DR: In this paper, American mastodon fossils were generated at two separate accelerator mass spectrometry laboratories using two different approaches, dating ultrafiltered "collagen" vs. single amino acid fractions.

Three-dimensional study of the lberian red deer antler (Cervus elaphus hispanicus): application of geometric morphometrics techniques and other methodologies

TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed a new perspective on the study of Iberian red deer antlers (Cervus elaphus hispanicus) from Sierra Morena (Spain), introducing new techniques able to provide more detailed information about them.
Journal ArticleDOI

Holocene and Late Pleistocene Bat Fossils (Mammalia: Chiroptera) from Hamilton County, TN, and their Ecological Implications

TL;DR: It is very likely that human disturbance has caused bat populations to become extinct in the caves under study, reinforcing the claim of previous researchers that bat population decline is a recent phenomenon that is tightly linked to human disturbance.

Valsequillo biostratigraphy. III: Equid ecospecies in Paleoindian sites.

TL;DR: Greater precision in North American Pleistocene equid taxonomy makes it now possible to exploit the ubiquitous horse remains in Paleoindian sites as ecological index-fossils.
