Two new sauropod papers are available online at PeerJ: Philip D. Mannion; Ronan Allain; Olivier Moine (2017). "The earliest known titanosauriform sauropod dinosaur and the evolution of Brachiosauridae". PeerJ. 5: e3217. doi:10.7717/peerj.3217. Emanuel Tschopp; Octávio Mateus (2017). Osteology of Galeamopus pabsti sp. nov. (Sauropoda: Diplodocidae), with implications for neurocentral closure timing, and the cervico-dorsal transition in diplodocids. PeerJ. 5: e3179. doi:10.7717/peerj.3179. Vouivria had been documented in the literature for decades, but the fact that Vouivria is older than other brachiosaurids fills a gap in the fossil record of early titanosauriforms, and because Moabosaurus has a mosaic of basal macronarian (spatulate teeth) and titanosauriform features, the picture of early titansauriform evolution in a chronological context becomes complicated.

Hi, i found this in the burdigalian of Roquefort in the department of Landes in the South-West of France. I hesitate between a sponge or a coral, but it might be something else. It is very light comparing with a stone of the same size.

Hello, in the Kimmeridgian of la Pointe du Chay i also found this item. I thought it could be a kind of spondylus withut any clue for the species. It is 2 cm long, 1 cm wide and the "back" of the valve is 0,5 cm high.

Hi all, Anyone know what species these bivalves are? They're from Contrisson, France, from which the fossils appear to be from the Albian stage. Thanks for the help, Max

I found that coral in the Kimmeridgian of la pointe du Chay, Charentes-Maritime. I have a documentation that shows some corals of that area and the one that looks like more is the Pseudocoenia hexaphyllia, what do you think it is ? The hole in which it is is about 4 cm on 3 cm.

I found those ostreae in the marl layer of the pointe du Chay and thought they could be actinostreons (old name : lopha). At that place, you can find some of gregarea or solitaria kind. 1) This one is about 4 cm of lenght and of width :

Nice specimen with strong remnant of coloration.

Found on construction site. The deposits correspond to a shallow and very saline lagoon environment where few species coexisted.
