Zircon separates from nine samples were dated using the U–Pb SHRIMP method. Well-defined concordia ages were determined in four ignimbrite samples (300.5 ± 2.0, 300.5 ± 1.4, 298.0 ± 1.6 and 297.2 ± 0.9 Ma) and in two rhyolite samples (298.4 ± 1.5 and 292.6 ± 1.9 Ma). Clustering of the ignimbrite sample ages between 300.5 ± 2.0 and 297.2 ± 0.9 Ma and geological evidence indicate the eruption and deposition of the tuffs close to the Carboniferous/Permian boundary, in a geologically rapid event at approximately 299 Ma. Zircon assemblages in three tuff specimens are strongly dominated by xenocrysts of various Palaeozoic and Precambrian ages that were incorporated during the eruption through the basin fill. The emplacement of the tuffs was followed (and partly overlapped?) by the emplacement of the Łomnica Rhyolites as sills in two episodes in the early Permian. The Góry Suche Rhyolitic Tuffs may be a few million years older than assumed so far, and this, as well as rather imprecise biostratigraphic constraints from the host sedimentary rocks, suggest a need for revision of the existing lithostratigraphic and evolutionary schemes for the Permo-Carboniferous of the Intra-Sudetic Basin. The studied tuffs and rhyolites together with coeval granitic plutons in vicinity can be linked to the onset of post-Carboniferous lithospheric thinning in Central Europe.</jats:p>

abstract = {Corneous skin appendages are not only common and diverse in crown-group amniotes but also present in some modern amphibians. This raises the still unresolved question of whether the ability to form corneous skin appendages is an apomorphy of a common ancestor of amphibians and amniotes or evolved independently in both groups. So far, there is no palaeontological contribution to the issue owing to the lack of keratin soft tissue preservation in Palaeozoic anamniotes. New data are provided by a recently discovered ichnofossil specimen from the early Permian of Poland that shows monospecific tetrapod footprints associated with a partial scaly body impression. The traces can be unambiguously attributed to diadectids and are interpreted as the globally first evidence of horned scales in tetrapods close to the origin of amniotes. Taking hitherto little-noticed scaly skin impressions of lepospondyl stem amniotes from the early Permian of Germany into account, the possibility has to be considered that the evolutionary origin of epidermal scales deeply roots among anamniotes.},

abstract = {We describe two new fish-dominated faunas from the Middle Triassic (Ladinian) Miedary site, Upper Silesia, Poland, and present a comparative analysis of Middle-to-Late Triassic vertebrate assemblages from the Germanic Basin, in order to explore the influence of salinity on faunal composition. The composition of the assemblage from dolomite beds at Miedary is similar to those from the Muschalkalk facies, whereas the assemblage from glauconite beds appears to be the first brackish vertebrate assemblage of the Serrolepis lake-type recognized from the eastern Germanic Basin. Comparative analysis of all sites, using hierarchical clustering, nonmetric multidimensional scaling, and principal component approaches, revealed the existence of vertebrate taxa associated withfreshwater, brackish and marine conditions, as well as euryhaline taxa with wide salinity preferences. Moreover, it confirms the brackish nature of Serrolepis-bearing assemblages, and suggests that Serrolepis suevicus is a brackish specialist, indicative of oligohaline to miohaline paleosalinities. The Middle-Late Triassic vertebrate faunas appear dominated by stenohaline taxa, with a conspicuous separation of species living in the freshwater and marine conditions. The euryhaline taxa are rare, and comprise Acrodus lateralis, Eusauropterygia, Lissodus nodosus, and Saurichthyiformes.},
