Although, the locality has been known for centuries, the coprolites have not been investigated in detail. We describe these fossils and explore their palaeoecological significance. Coprolites were examined with thin sections, X-ray powder diffraction and computed tomography. Their surface is mostly smooth, desiccation cracks were not observed. All coprolites mainly consist of apatite, indicating most probably a carnivorous diet. No evidence of herbivory has been found so far. The coprolites contain remains belonging to several groups: ostracod carapaces, bivalve shells, vertebrae from bony fishes, fish scales, as well as teeth. The CT scans show inhomogeneities in the matrix; however, in most cases they do not reliably indicate inclusions. The taphonomical features suggest rapid burial and most likely an aquatic origin. The spiral morphotype could be attributed to fishes with spiral intestinal valves. Teeth of reef-associated fish taxa indicate Badenian age for some specimens, though the coprolite assemblage might include older and younger specimens as well.}, keywords = {Lake Pannon; Paratethys; Miocene; VERTEBRATE COPROLITES; coprolite taphonomy}, year = {2025}, eissn = {1029-2381}, pages = {663-678}, orcid-numbers = {Sebe, Krisztina/0000-0002-4647-2199; Virág, Attila/0000-0002-5530-0065; Botfalvai, Gábor/0000-0002-5479-9036} } @article{MTMT:35607326, title = {Trace element taphonomy of the Hanson Ranch Edmontosaurus bonebed supports its origin via transportation of a mass death assemblage}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/35607326}, author = {Ullmann, Paul V. and Caputo, Cooper and Snyder, Keith and Chadwick, Arthur and Ash, Richard D.}, doi = {10.1016/j.chemgeo.2024.122501}, journal-iso = {CHEM GEOL}, journal = {CHEMICAL GEOLOGY}, volume = {672}, unique-id = {35607326}, issn = {0009-2541}, year = {2025}, eissn = {1872-6836} } @article{MTMT:34785728, title = {Mammal-bearing Pleistocene deposits, Vranić, southwestern Pannonian Basin System}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/34785728}, author = {Banak, A and Ruszkiczay-Rüdiger, Zsófia and Grizelj, A and Đuras, M and Petrinjak, K and Aumaître, G and Keddadouche, K and Wieser, A and Milošević, M and Pavelić, D}, doi = {10.1016/j.jop.2024.04.001}, journal-iso = {J PALAEOGEOG}, journal = {JOURNAL OF PALAEOGEOGRAPHY-ENGLISH}, volume = {13}, unique-id = {34785728}, issn = {2095-3836}, year = {2024}, eissn = {2524-4507}, pages = {430-452}, orcid-numbers = {Banak, A/0000-0002-6652-6908; Ruszkiczay-Rüdiger, Zsófia/0000-0001-9454-732X; Grizelj, A/0000-0001-5230-4725; Đuras, M/0000-0002-0538-0992; Petrinjak, K/0000-0003-4992-4223; Aumaître, G/0000-0002-9032-9226; Keddadouche, K/0000-0002-9067-197X; Wieser, A/0000-0002-1080-7188; Milošević, M/0000-0003-4315-6198} } @article{MTMT:34825884, title = {Fossils from the Upper Miocene (Pannonian) sands of the Pécsvárad sand pit (Eastern Mecsek Mts., SW Hungary)}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/34825884}, author = {Sebe, Krisztina and Szabó, Márton and Szentesi, Zoltán and Pandolfi, L. and Jankó, N. and Magyar, Imre}, doi = {10.2298/GABP240228007S}, journal-iso = {ANN GEOL PENINSULA BALKANIQUE}, journal = {ANNALES GEOLOGIQUES DE LA PENINSULA BALKANIQUE}, volume = {85}, unique-id = {34825884}, issn = {0350-0608}, year = {2024}, eissn = {2406-0747}, pages = {49-71}, orcid-numbers = {Sebe, Krisztina/0000-0002-4647-2199; Szentesi, Zoltán/0000-0002-7019-5478} } @article{MTMT:34104448, title = {Geochemical fingerprinting of fossils with uncertain stratigraphic provenance: A case study from the Lower Jurassic Nishinakayama Formation (Yamaguchi, Japan)}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/34104448}, author = {Breeden III, Benjamin T. and Izumi, Kentaro and Kemp, David B. and Irmis, Randall B.}, doi = {10.1016/j.eve.2023.100004}, journal-iso = {EVOLVING EARTH}, journal = {EVOLVING EARTH}, volume = {1}, unique-id = {34104448}, issn = {2950-1172}, year = {2023}, orcid-numbers = {Breeden III, Benjamin T./0000-0001-7352-0013; Kemp, David B./0000-0002-5116-5046} } @article{MTMT:34112863, title = {Geochemical investigation of the mixed Máriahalom vertebrate fauna at the Paleogene–Neogene boundary in the Central Paratethys: environmental conditions and age constrain}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/34112863}, author = {Kocsis, László and Rabi, Márton and Ulianov, Alex and Cipriani, Anna and Farkas, Izabella Melinda and Botfalvai, Gábor}, doi = {10.1186/s13358-023-00281-7}, journal-iso = {SWISS J PALAEON}, journal = {SWISS JOURNAL OF PALAEONTOLOGY}, volume = {142}, unique-id = {34112863}, issn = {1664-2376}, abstract = {The fossil vertebrate fauna of Máriahalom contains remains from a wide range of ecologies including terrestrial and aquatic mammals, crocodiles, sharks, and rays among others. All these were found mixed in mollusc-rich, shallow water, coastal deposits. The aim of the study is to trace the origin of the fossils using their rare earth element (REE) content and their respective ecology with stable oxygen isotopic compositions. In addition, marine vertebrates and calcareous marine fossils were analysed for their Sr isotope composition to provide a new age estimate for the locality. The REE content and their distribution in the fossils indicate similar early diagenetic environments and possible contemporaneous fossilization for the entire vertebrate assemblage. Reworked fossils of significantly different age can be excluded. The enamel/enameloid-derived phosphate oxygen isotope composition of selected fossil taxa fit well with previously inferred habitats that include marine, brackish, and terrestrial environments. Notably, the stem-pinniped Potamotherium valletoni is best interpreted as freshwater dweller instead of marine, consistent with the sedimentology of other occurrences. Our novel 87 Sr/ 86 Sr data suggest an Aquitanian age (21.4 ± 0.5 Ma) for the Máriahalom site that is younger than the previously proposed Late Oligocene age based on biostratigraphy (MP28–30 European Mammal Paleogene Reference Levels). An Aquitanian age raises the possibility that the index fossil taxon, the anthracothere mammal Microbunodon minimum , may have vanished earlier in Western Europe than in the Central Paratethys region.}, year = {2023}, eissn = {1664-2384}, orcid-numbers = {Kocsis, László/0000-0003-4613-1850; Botfalvai, Gábor/0000-0002-5479-9036} } @article{MTMT:33031940, title = {A Plea for a New Synthesis: From Twentieth-Century Paleobiology to Twenty-First-Century Paleontology and Back Again}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/33031940}, author = {Tamborini, Marco}, doi = {10.3390/biology11081120}, journal-iso = {BIOLOGY-BASEL}, journal = {BIOLOGY-BASEL}, volume = {11}, unique-id = {33031940}, year = {2022}, eissn = {2079-7737}, orcid-numbers = {Tamborini, Marco/0000-0001-7102-7479} }
