It seems increasingly probable that their origin is associated with climatic and environmental changes in tropical areas and was coeval with the breakup of the supercontinent Gondwana. The fi

Postcards from the Mesozoic: Forest Landscapes with Giant Flowering Trees, Enigmatic Seed Ferns, anermian boundary at 252 million years ago, was filled with forests. Like today, the forest was the dominant terrestrial ecosystem. The trees that created the forest habitat, along with the other woody plants and ferns in the understory and groundcover, were the primary producers that powered Earth’s

We would witness a terrestrial vertebrate fauna dominated by dinosaurs of various sizes and diversity, accompanied by many other animal groups that often are overlooked. Current research suggests that many of the main vertebrate clades existing

Carnivorous archosaurs and crocodile-like reptiles, together with amphibians, populated the land, but these groups witnessed a dramatic change that began during the Late Triassic. This change was the rise of the dinosaurs. During the Jura

This change testifies to a large-scale event that led to the extinction of a significant portion of biodiversity, the most severe mass extinction of all times.
