Late Pleistocene fossil birds from Buso Doppio del Broion Cave (North-Eastern Italy): implications for palaeoecology, palaeoenvironment and palaeoclimate
We present the taxonomic and taphonomic analysis of the bird fossil remains from Buso Doppio del Broion Cave (VI), located in the Berici Hills in North-Eastern Italy. The deposits investigated are referred to the end of MIS 3 and the beginning of MIS 2, in a phase of climate harshening. The study id...
