Toxodontidae was an extinct family of South American notoungulates, widely studied systematically, but not so much from an ecological perspective. This work aims to improve the knowledge about variations in diet and habitats of different representatives of this group in the context of biotic and abiotic events throughout the last 20 My. The tooth e...
“Evolutionary” is a game that was developed in 2019 for the XIX Madrid Science and Innovation Week and aims to teach concepts of Palaeontology and Geology through gamification. The COVID-19 pandemic was a major impediment to develop this activity during 2020 and 2021. Therefore, a series of adaptations were made to carry out online and synchronous...
During the Pleistocene intense climatic changes occurred corresponding with the alternation of inter-glacial and glacial periods. By means of stable isotope analysis on fossil mammals, this research allows the assessment of the palaeoecological and palaeoclimatic conditions, including the possible scenarios for the atmospheric circulation pattern d...
Elisabeth S. Vrba’s resource-use hypothesis suggests that speciation in biomes subjected to successive expansion-contraction-fragmentation during periods of climatic change generates high frequency of species restricted to a single biome (stenobiomic species). We compiled biome occupation for all terrestrial mammals and, using Monte Carlo simulatio...
Megamammals constituted an important component in the Pleistocene faunal communities of South America. Paleobiological and paleoecological studies involving different megamammal taxa have increased significantly in the last years, but there are still several poorly-known issues of its life history. In this work, we analyze an assemblage composed of...
We report stable isotopic analyses for dental enamel of fossil mammals from the Miocene (∼ 7.1 Ma, MN13, middle Turolian) Corral de Lobato locality, Guadalajara, Spain, and compare it with adjacent localities of the Iberian Range. This multidisciplinary research allows the assessment of the palaeoenvironmental, palaeoecological and palaeoclimatic c...
This study aims at assessing resource and habitat use, niche occupation and trophic interactions from a stable isotope perspective on fossil mammals from the Argentine Pampas during the Great American Biotic Interchange (GABI). We present stable isotope data of more than 400 samples belonging to 10 mammalian orders and spanning a temporal range fro...
