中生代の哺乳類化石から、現代の小型哺乳類とは異なる長期にわたる生活史が明らかになった。
Early mammaliaforms, such as the Middle Jurassic docodontan Krusatodon, exhibited a prolonged life history with slower growth and longer maximum lifespan compared to modern small mammals.
화석 기록의 지리적 범위가 제한적이라는 사실을 보여주는 새로운 증거
The discovery of previously undescribed early tetrapod fossils in an unexpected geographical location challenges the assumption that the fossil record is complete, revealing the limitations of current paleontological knowledge.
고생대 후기 남극 지역에서 발견된 거대 줄기 4족 동물 화석 Gaiasia jennyae는 기존의 4족 동물 진화 가설을 재고하게 만든다.
The discovery of a new giant stem tetrapod, Gaiasia jennyae, from high-palaeolatitude early Permian deposits in Namibia challenges previous hypotheses of early tetrapod evolution and distribution, suggesting a more global distribution of continental tetrapods during the Carboniferous-Permian transition.
에디아카라기 시대에 생존했던 해면동물 화석 Helicolocellus cantori가 발견되었으며, 이는 해면동물이 선캄브리아기에 이미 진화했음을 보여준다.
The discovery of the late-Ediacaran fossil Helicolocellus cantori, a large, stemmed benthic organism with an organic skeleton similar to hexactinellid sponges, challenges the prevailing view that sponge fossils only appear in the Cambrian period and suggests sponges diverged and existed in the Precambrian as non-biomineralizing animals.
