Late Paleozoic latitudinal shift of Gondwana : stratigraphic/sedimentologic and biogeographic evidence from Bolivia. Detailed stratigraphic, sedimentologic, and biostratigraphic studies of the Late Paleozoic (Devonian through Permian) 5 km-thick sedimentary record in the Altiplano of Bolivia suggest a significant paleolatitudinal shift, from 60° S to at least 25° S during this interval.
