Devonian-Carboniferous syn-orogenic sedimentation on SW domains of the Ossa-Mor...
Moreira, Noel; Machado, Gil; Silvério, Gonçalo; Neto de Carvalho, CarlosThe Variscan Cycle is well represented from Central-Eastern Europe to North America. In the Iberian Massif crops out one of the best-exposed cross-sections revealing the full anatomy of the Variscan Orogeny. This includes the hinterland domains of the Variscan belt, composed of several zones with distinct stratigraphic, tectono-metamorphic, and magmatic features, in addition to the external domains that encompa...
Casulos de vespas provenientes de paleossolos nos “Calcários de Senhora das Nec...
Neto de Carvalho, Carlos; Sequeira, Jorge; Anacleto, JoséRESUMO: Em Portugal, os estudos de Icnologia de paleossolos estão a dar os seus primeiros passos. Neste trabalho descrevemos os casulos de vespas do tipo Fictovichnus sciuttoi identificados no Oligocénico dos “Calcários de Senhora das Necessidades” e provenientes de paleossolos carbonatados (Icnofácies de Celliforma). A descrição destes icnofósseis, que são um contributo para o conhecimento da biodiversidade do...

Figueiredo, Silvério; Carvalho, Ismar; Cunha, Pedro; Pereda-Suberbiola, X; Neto de Carvalho, Carlos; Díaz-Martínez, I.; Garcias, T.RESUMO: Descrevem-se novas pegadas de terópodes encontradas na Boca do Chapim, a norte do Cabo Espichel (Formação de Papo Seco, Barremiano inferior). Quatorze pegadas de terópodes foram identificadas na primeira camada desta formação. Foram identificados dois tipos diferentes de pegadas de terópodes, que ocorrem em diferentes áreas e níveis desta camada. O primeiro tipo, constituído por pegadas mais pequenas e ...
New vertebrate tracksites from the Last Interglacial dune deposits of coastal M...
Neto de Carvalho, Carlos; Jiménez Espejo, Francisco J.; Moreira, Noel; Muñiz, Fernando; Belo, João; Gutiérrez Meseguer, Jorge; Camuera, JonAnalysis of new vertebrate tracksites from the Last Interglacial (Marine Isotope Stage 5e) dune deposits along the southeastern coast of the Iberian Peninsula, specifically in Murcia, Spain, enabled to identify the likely presence of a medium-sized mustelid, wolf, large artiodactyls, an equid and the straight-tusked elephant Palaeoloxodon antiquus. These eolianite successions offer valuable ichnological evidenc...
A Neanderthal's specialised burning structure compatible with tar obtention
Ochando, Juan; Jiménez-Espejo, Francisco J.; Giles-Guzmán, Francisco; Neto de Carvalho, Carlos; Carrión, Jose S.; Muñiz, Fernando; Rubiales, Juan ManuelHere we present multiproxy evidence of a new type of Neanderthal hearth discovered in Vanguard Cave (VC) (Gibraltar), which is dated ~ 65 kyr, and associated with Middle Paleolithic stone artefacts. The hearth structure coincides with predictions from theoretical studies which require the use of heating structures for obtaining birch tar, commonly used in hafting. We propose that the structure was used for heat...

Neto de Carvalho, Carlos; Sequeira, Jorge; Anacleto, JoséSUMMARY: In Portugal, the studies on the ichnology of paleosols are giving the very first steps. Here we describe the wasp cocoons Fictovichnus sciuttoi found in the Oligocene of Calcários da Senhora das Necessidades and derived from carbonate paleosols (Celliforma Ichnofacies). The description of these trace fossils is based on a small collection deposited at the Museu Geológico.

Neto de Carvalho, Carlos; Jensen, S.; Bayet-Goll, A.; Baucon, Andrea; Anacleto, José; Palácios, TeresaSUMÁRIO: Rusophycus leifeirikssoni é descrito nas formações Lashkerak, Irão (parte inferior da Unidade 2) e Colorada, na Zona de Ossa-Morena, atribuídas ao Ordovícico Médio e correspondendo a ambientes deposicionais similares. Na Formação Colorada descreve-se ainda uma nova icnoespécie de Rusophycus, interpretada como comportamento de busca de alimento e abundante na famosa Pedreira do Mestre André.
Aurochs roamed along the coast of SW Spain (Iberia) during Late Pleistocene
Neto de Carvalho, Carlos; Muñiz, Fernando; Cáceres, Luis M.; Belaústegui, Zain; Rodríguez‑Vidal, Joaquín; Belo, João; Moreira, Noel; Cachão, MárioIn the Iberian Peninsula the fossil record of artiodactyls spans over 53 million years. During the Pleistocene, wild cattle species such as Bison and especially Bos became common. In Late Pleistocene, the aurochs (Bos primigenius) was widespread and the only bovine living along the large river valleys of southern Iberia. Although commonly found in fossil sites and especially in cave bone assemblages, the trace ...
The Mississippian Toca da Moura-Cabrela Basin (SW Ossa-Morena Zone, Portugal): ...
Machado, Gil; Moreira, Noel; Neto de Carvalho, Carlos; Madrinha, João; Esteves, Cristiana; Kalvoda, Jiri; Theias, Afonso; Jorge, João; Ramos, MartimIntroduction and Geological context The Iberian Massif is the most southwestern domain of European Variscides, displaying an internal organization that allows to identify several palaeogeographic zones, among which the Ossa-Morena Zone (OMZ) that is included in the hinterland domains of this Massif. The Carboniferous sedimentation in the hinterland is restricted to small basins, controlled by the tectonic setti...
