Late Triassic–Early Jurassic continental vertebrates and their environmental context from the Junggar Basin, Xinjiang, NW China ...
Vertebrate assemblages from the Junggar Basin in Xinjiang, China, are the only ones known from palaeo-arctic continental strata of Late Triassic and Early Jurassic age. Here we present a preliminary description of these new assemblages, focusing on the underappreciated Arctic palaeolatitude and wint...

Vertebrate assemblages from the Junggar Basin in Xinjiang, China, are the only ones known from palaeo-arctic continental strata of Late Triassic and Early Jurassic age.
