While the Asian record comprises several well-preserved skulls and skeletons, other Laurasian occurrences are generally known from disarticulated skull material and isolated teeth. Additionally, the Gondwanan record is rare, with only one species described so far, Bicuspidon hogreli, from the Ifezouane Formation, Kem Kem Beds of Morocco. Given their wide geographic distribution, several biogeographic hypotheses were suggested to explain the temporal and spatial distribution of borioteiioids. In this study, we report the first record of a borioteiioid from the Lower Cretaceous of South America. The specimen was unearthed from Aptian deposits of the Quirico Formation (Sanfranciscana Basin), Brazil, and consists of both anterior portions of dentaries. Among other characteristics, the material has transversally wide mid-posterior teeth with two distinct cusps (labial and lingual), as typically seen in species of the genus Bicuspidon. It also exhibits additional features, such first mental foramen facing anteriorly and the remaining ones forming a line in the lateral portion of the dentary, anterior symphyseal process extending from the anterior margin of the symphysis, and symphysis bearing an oval-shaped and thick process. These characteristics allowed us to erect a new species of Borioteiioidea, Cryptobicuspidon pachysymphysealis gen. et sp. nov. Cryptobicuspidon pachysymphysealis is one of the oldest records of Borioteiioidea known so far and suggests that Polyglyphanodontini borioteiioids originated in Gondwana with a posterior dispersal to North America and Europe during the Late Cretaceous.(c) 2023 Elsevier Ltd.

Detailed investigation of the assemblage by multiple visualization techniques (scanning electron microscopy, polarizing light microscopy, X-ray micro-computed tomography), quantitative morphometric analyses, and micro X-ray fluorescence spectrometry revealed a diverse composition of five different eggshell morphotypes (MT I-MT V) and three subcategories within the second morphotype (MT II/a, b, c), with MT I being by far the most abundant (83%) in the assemblage. MT I, MT III, and MT V represent theropod dinosaurian eggshells, whereas MT II and MT IV show characteristics of crocodilian and squamate eggshells, respectively. Hence, despite their fragmentary nature, these eggshells represent the first clear evidence that various sauropsid taxa had nesting sites near the ancient fluvial system of Iharkút. Besides the implied taxonomic diversity, two unique features add to the significance of this eggshell assemblage. First, it contains the thinnest rigid crocodilian (MT II/c) and squamate (MT IV) eggshells ever reported. Moreover, one of the identified theropod morphotypes, MT I, is also among the thinnest fossil dinosaurian eggshells, the thinness of which is only rivalled by the eggshells of the smallest Mesozoic avian eggs known to date. Second, the Iharkút eggshell assemblage consists exclusively of thin eggshells (≤300 μm), a condition unknown from any other fossil eggshell assemblages described to date. Combined with the knowledge acquired from skeletal remains, these peculiarities give additional insights into the paleoecology of the terrestrial sauropsid fauna once inhabiting the ancient island of Iharkút. Finally, the presence of well-preserved eggshells recovered from two different sites representing different depositional environments provides further evidence for previous taphonomic and sedimentological conclusions, and also expands our knowledge of the special conditions that allowed the preservation of these delicate eggshell fragments. © 2017 The Author(s).}, year = {2017}, eissn = {1789-3348}, pages = {73-133}, orcid-numbers = {Botfalvai, Gábor/0000-0002-5479-9036;

Here we present two specimens of this assemblage, a plate fragment of the bothremydid turtle Foxemys trabanti, and a partial skull roof of the hylaeochampsid crocodilian, Iharkutosuchus makadii, that exhibit pathological traits, such as shallow and deep pits, bisected pits, and scores on their surface, and in the case of the skull roof, also a hole piercing through the entire bone thickness. Morphological and bone histological features of these pathological traits imply that they probably represent bite marks rather than deformations due to pre-mortem shell diseases, infections or post-mortem invertebrate bioerosion, and microbial activity. Morphological similarities with experimentally investigated crocodilian tooth marks suggest that both elements bear the bite marks of a crocodilian predator with typical conical teeth, possibly the Allodaposuchus-like crocodile, also known from the locality. The inferred tooth marks on the dorsal surface of the Iharkutosuchus skull roof indicate a rarely documented predator-prey interaction between two different crocodilian taxa rather than antagonistic behaviour over common resources. Nevertheless, more comparative studies are needed on different traumatic as well as non-traumatic bone pathologies that may eventuate in bite-mark-like abnormalities. © 2014.}, keywords = {Turtles; Late cretaceous; predator-prey interaction; Iharkut; Crocodilians; Bone pathology; Bone histology; Bite marks}, year = {2014}, eissn = {1095-998X}, pages = {304-317}, orcid-numbers = {Botfalvai, Gábor/0000-0002-5479-9036; Ősi, Attila/0000-0003-2967-997X} } @mastersthesis{MTMT:31123712, title = {The role of fire in dinosaur-dominated ecosystems: examples from the Late Cretaceous of Alberta}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/31123712}, author = {Brown, Sarah Anne Elizabeth}, unique-id = {31123712}, year = {2014} } @mastersthesis{MTMT:3019228, title = {Az iharkúti késő-kréta Archosauria fauna taxonómiai, paleobiológiai és ősállatföldrajzi aspektusai}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/3019228}, author = {Ősi, Attila}, publisher = {Eötvös Loránd University}, unique-id = {3019228}, year = {2014}, orcid-numbers = {Ősi, Attila/0000-0003-2967-997X} }
