Contents:
Geological setting and phytodiversity in Mexico -- Tertiary Palynofloristic correlations between Mexican Formations with emphasis in dating the Balsas Group -- Mesozoic Corals of Mexico -- Rudists of Mexico: Historical Aspects and Selected Areas of Research -- Mesozoic and Tertiary Decapod Crustacea from Mexico -- Cretaceous Echinoids of Mexico -- Fossil Ophiuroids of Mexico -- Fossil record of Upper Paleozoic Marine Invertebrates from Mexico -- Mesozoic Osteichthyans of Mexico -- Research on Fossil amphibians and reptiles in Mexico, from 1869 to early 2004 (including marine forms but excluding pterosaurs, dinosaurs, and obviously, birds) -- A Review of the Dinosaurian Record from Mexico -- Mexican Fossil Mammals, Who, Where and When? -- Revision of Recent Investigations in the Tlayúa Quarry.
In: Springer eBooksSummary: This volume was cited as Best Seller in Geology according to Library Journal Academic Newswire, November 2006! The most relevant contributions on Mexican Paleontology are described by specialists. Diverse aspects of almost every fossil group are reviewed. Information on recent advances of important localities is provided. This book will offer updated information useful to the fields of stratigraphy, sedimentology, tectonics, paleobiogeography, paleoclimatology and evolution. The first comprehensive source of information about Mexican fossils in English. A very important added value to this book is the rather extensive bibliography of almost 1000 references related to the central topic, invaluable information which by itself constitutes a tribute to the memory of pioneer contributions by researchers that have worked in Mexico for the past two centuries
