The present contribution is the first instalment of a systematic revision of the Early Cretaceous (Barremian to Early Albian) corals of Puebla, Mexico. The coral fauna preserved in the Tehuacan region represents one of the most species rich associations of…

A small assemblage of Maastrichtian ammonoids was collected at El Zancudo, south of Nuevo Laredo, Mexico, on the border with Texas. They are preserved as goethitic internal moulds of the innermost whorls. Nine taxa are described in abbreviated form. Eight…

An isolated supraorbital horncore collected from the Olmos Formation near Múzquiz is among the longest ever found, and records the presence in this area of a very large ceratopsid. The specimen probably pertains to a chasmosaurine, but differs significantly from…

Fossil fish specimens from the Múzquiz Lagerstätte (Late Cretaceous) of northern México have been analysed using UV light-induced visible fluorescence microscopy, Particle-induced X-ray Emission (PIXE), X-Ray Diffraction (XRD), and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM). Specimens examined with UV light microscopy show…

Microfossils from an outcrop of the coral reef and rudist-bearing calcareous upper member of the Mal Paso Formation just north of Chumbítaro, State of Michoacán, Mexico, indicate a deepening trend and transition from nearshore through outer shelf depositional environments upward…
