Triassic pentadactyl tracks from the Los Menucos Group (Río Negro province, Patagonia Argentina): possible constraints on the autopodial posture of Gondwanan trackmakers by Paolo Citton, Ignacio Díaz-Martínez, Silvina de Valais, Carlos Cónsole-Gonella

“…The footprints under study are compared with Pentasauropus from the Upper Triassic lower Elliot Formation (Stormberg Group) of the Karoo Basin (Lesotho, southern Africa). Some track features suggest a therapsid-grade synapsid as the potential trackmaker, to be sought among anomodont dicynodonts (probably Kannemeyeriiformes). …”

The tectonic development of the Central African Plateau: evidence from shear-wave splitting by Kounoudis, R, Kendall, J-M, Ogden, CS, Fishwick, S, Chifwepa, C, Daly, MC

“…Major upper-crustal deformation and complex craton margin fault zones reflect the region’s diverse tectonic history: rifting during the Neoproterozoic, collision during the Pan-African orogeny, and more recently, Permo-Triassic Karoo rifting and the Pliocene development of the Southwestern branch of the East African Rift. …”

First Detection of <i>Wolbachia</i> in Namibian Bird Ectoparasites (Acariformes: Syringophilidae) with a Description of New Quill Mite Species by Eliza Glowska-Patyniak, Katarzyna Kaszewska-Gilas, Izabella Laniecka, Julia Olechnowicz, Kamila Ostrowska, Wiktoria Dmuchowska, Brian K. Schmidt, Jan Hubert, Artur Trzebny

“…Our research revealed two new quill mite species of the genus <i>Syringophilopsis</i> Kethley, 1970 which parasitize three sub-Saharan alaudids, i.e., <i>Syringophilopsis erythrochlamys</i> sp. n. from the dune lark <i>Calendulauda erythrochlamys</i> (Strickland, HE) and <i>S. christinae</i> sp. n. from the Karoo long-billed lark <i>Certhilauda subcoronata</i> (Smith) and spike-heeled lark <i>Chersomanes albofasciata</i> (de Lafresnaye, NFAA). …”
