The main goal of this research Project is to seek funds to allow Dr. ARTURO CÉSAR TABOADA, CONICET, Argentina, to come to Brazil to interact with members of our research group in the study of Late Paleozoic brachiopods of the Parana Basin. Dr. ARTURO is a leading scientist in Late Paleozoic brachiopods of Gondwana, and is interested in coeval Brazilian material. If approved the project wi…

Mollusk bivalves of the Brazilian Cretaceous were, generally, widely studied since the second half of the 19th century. However, even if this assertion is true for the bivalves of the Sergipe and Paraná sedimentary basins, the same cannot be said about the Araripe Basin, Northeastern Brazil. Likewise, when compared with other South American localities, such as Argentina, there are remarka…
The geological events related to the final stages of the Gondwana breakup and the subsequent opening of the South Atlantic Ocean caused fault reactivation of the Proterozoic Borborema Province and originated the Cretaceous deposits of the Araripe Basin. During Aptian times a widespread transgression took place in the Northeastern Brazil, culminating with the deposition of the marine strat…
The Cretaceous (i.e., Crato and Romualdo formations) of the Araripe Basin, records some of the most spectacular fossil-rich deposits (Konservat-Largestätten) of the Mesozoic, which were generated during the Gondwana break-up and consequently South Atlantic Ocean opening. Because of that, upper units of the Santana Group (i.e., Romualdo Formation) record a main Aptian marine transgression.…
The Aptian Crato Formation is a 65m-thick, carbonate-siliciclastic-evaporitic succession in the Araripe Basin, northeastern Brazil, that was generated during the Gondwana break-up. It is regarded as a world-class Konservat-Lagerstätten where numerous fossil groups (plants, vertebrates and invertebrates) are exceptionally preserved. The vertical succession encompasses siliciclastic and car…
