Among the excavated locations, site K2 is by far the most significant, as based on its stratigraphical position it is considered the oldest known (earliest Maastrichtian) highly diversified vertebrate site in the entire Haţeg Basin, and thus provides a good starting point for paleofaunistic, paleoecological and biostratigraphic comparisons with other similar sites across the Transylvanian area. During this study, detailed sedimentological, palynological, invertebrate- and vertebrate paleontological investigations were conducted to reconstruct the former paleoenvironment and the different depositional processes that allowed the formation of this productive bonebed. More than 800 vertebrate fossils were collected from an approximately 4.75 m 2 area of the bonebed horizon of site K2 representing at least 17 species including fish, amphibians, turtles, squamates, crocodyliforms, dinosaurs, pterosaurs and mammals, ranking this site among the most taxonomically diverse ones within the basin. The sedimentological investigation points towards a lacustrine depositional environment in which a high-diversity, multitaxic, multidominant mixed assemblage was accumulated on a flood-related delta due to a sudden drop in transport energy. Based on its stratigraphical position, site K2 represents the oldest vertebrate site within the Haţeg area and suggests a remarkable large-scale faunal stability on the Haţeg Island during the Maastrichtian. The dominant elements of the local fauna were already present in the earliest Maastrichtian, and no significant differences in faunal composition can be detected between this oldest and other, younger vertebrate assemblages of Haţeg Basin, at least at the level of higher taxa. Furthermore, just as the faunal composition, the dominance spectrum of the different taxa has not changed significantly among the Maastrichtian sites of Haţeg Basin.}, year = {2025}, eissn = {1932-6203}, orcid-numbers = {Botfalvai, Gábor/0000-0002-5479-9036; Csiki-Sava, Zoltán/0000-0001-7144-0327; Páll-Gergely, Barna/0000-0002-6167-7221} } @article{MTMT:36106723, title = {First hadrosauroid record from Petresti-Arini (Transylvanian Basin, Romania; Upper Cretaceous) and its implications for the evolution of the Hateg Island vertebrate faunas}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/36106723}, author = {Ebner, Aaron J. and Csiki-Sava, Zoltán and Treiber, Tim and Totoianu, Radu and Augustin, Felix J.}, doi = {10.1016/j.palwor.2025.200937}, journal-iso = {PALAEOWORLD}, journal = {PALAEOWORLD}, volume = {34}, unique-id = {36106723}, issn = {1871-174X}, year = {2025}, eissn = {1875-5887}, orcid-numbers = {Csiki-Sava, Zoltán/0000-0001-7144-0327} } @article{MTMT:36654241, title = {Postcranial osteology and locomotor habits of the North American Paleocene multituberculate Taeniolabis (Taeniolabidoidea, Mammalia)}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/36654241}, author = {Hoffmann, Simone and Krause, David W.}, doi = {10.1007/s12549-025-00671-4}, journal-iso = {PALAEOBIODIV PALAEOENV}, journal = {PALAEOBIODIVERSITY AND PALAEOENVIRONMENTS}, unique-id = {36654241}, issn = {1867-1594}, keywords = {Paleocene; Multituberculata; POSTCRANIAL SKELETON; Taeniolabidoidea; Taeniolabis}, year = {2025}, eissn = {1867-1608} } @article{MTMT:36241208, title = {New report of Late Cretaceous struthiosaurids from the Haţeg Basin, with an overview of the Transylvanian ankylosaur fossil record}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/36241208}, author = {Treiber, Tim and Csiki-Sava, Zoltán and Ebner, Aaron J. and Augustin, Felix J.}, doi = {10.1007/s12549-025-00661-6}, journal-iso = {PALAEOBIODIV PALAEOENV}, journal = {PALAEOBIODIVERSITY AND PALAEOENVIRONMENTS}, volume = {105}, unique-id = {36241208}, issn = {1867-1594}, keywords = {Late cretaceous; Ankylosauria; Ha & tcedil;eg Island; Struthiosauridae; Struthiosaurus}, year = {2025}, eissn = {1867-1608}, pages = {517-543}, orcid-numbers = {Csiki-Sava, Zoltán/0000-0001-7144-0327} } @article{MTMT:34493382, title = {Integrated biostratigraphy of Upper cretaceous deposits from an exceptional continental vertebrate-bearing marine section (Transylvanian Basin, Romania) provides new constraints on the advent of ‘dwarf dinosaur’ faunas in Eastern Europe}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/34493382}, author = {Bălc, R. and Bindiu-Haitonic, R. and Kövecsi, SA. and Vremir, M. and Ducea, M. and Csiki-Sava, Zoltán and Tabără, D. and Vasile, Ș.}, doi = {10.1016/j.marmicro.2023.102328}, journal-iso = {MAR MICROPALEONTOL}, journal = {MARINE MICROPALEONTOLOGY}, volume = {187}, unique-id = {34493382}, issn = {0377-8398}, year = {2024}, eissn = {1872-6186}, orcid-numbers = {Csiki-Sava, Zoltán/0000-0001-7144-0327} } @inproceedings{MTMT:36681243, title = {Forming and Controlling Hitches in Midair Using Aerial Robots}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/36681243}, author = {D'Antonio, Diego S. and Bhattacharya, Subhrajit and Saldana, David}, booktitle = {2023 IEEE International Conference on Robotics and Automation, ICRA 2023}, doi = {10.1109/ICRA48891.2023.10160741}, unique-id = {36681243}, year = {2023}, pages = {1270-1276}, orcid-numbers = {Saldana, David/0000-0003-2442-4257} }
