Anuran Lissamphibian and Squamate Reptiles from the Upper Cretaceous (Maastrichtian) Deccan Intertrappean Sites in Centr
The Maastrichtian intertrappean beds of Kisalpuri and Kelapur, India, have yielded new amphibian and squamate reptile fossils that increase our knowledge of these groups. In addition to focusing on these two localities, we review the faunas of amphibians

Biological Consequences of Plate Tectonics New Perspectives on Post-Gondwana Break-up—A Tribute to Ashok Sahni
Biological Consequences of Plate Tectonics
Vertebrate Paleobiology and Paleoanthropology Series Edited by Eric Delson Vertebrate Paleontology, American Museum of Natural History New York, NY, USA
Eric J. Sargis Yale University Department of Anthropology, New Haven, CT, USA Focal topics for volumes in the series will include systematic paleontology of all vertebrates (from agnathans to humans), phylogeny reconstruction, functional morphology, Paleolithic archaeology, taphonomy, geochronology, historical biogeography, and biostratigraphy. Other fields (e.g., paleoclimatology, paleoecology, ancient DNA, total organismal community structure) may be considered if the volume theme emphasizes paleobiology (or archaeology). Fields such as modeling of physical processes, genetic methodology, nonvertebrates or neontology are out of our scope. Volumes in the series may either be monographic treatments (including unpublished but fully revised dissertations) or edited collections, especially those focusing on problem-oriented issues, with multidisciplinary coverage where possible.
