“…This comparison evidences marked differences between the results of both datasets as observed also in previous works (e.g. Kustatscher et al 2010Kustatscher et al , 2012Kustatscher et al , 2014, since the macrofossils reflect more local palaeoenvironments, whereas palynomorphs reflect more regional climatic conditions combined with local elements.…”

“…The former belongs to the Caytoniales, attributed to deltaic environments (Harris 1964) Kustatscher et al 2014). Alisporites is attributed to the Corystospermales since its in situ pollen grains have been found in Pachypteris-type plants, and it has been attributed to the drier lowland.…”

During the Jurassic, Sardinia was close to continental Europe. Emerged lands started from a single island forming in time a progressively sinking archipelago. This complex palaeogeographic situation gave origin to a diverse landscape with a variety of habitats. Collectionand literature-based palaeobotanical, palynological and lithofacies studies were carried out on the Genna Selole Formation for palaeoenvironmental interpretations. They evidence a generally warm and humid climate, affected occasionally by drier periods. Several distinct ecosystems can be discerned in this climate, including alluvial fans with braided streams (Laconi-Gadoni lithofacies), paralic swamps and coasts (Nurri-Escalaplano lithofacies), and lagoons and shallow marine environments (UssassaiPerdasdefogu lithofacies). The non-marine environments were covered by extensive lowland and a reduced coastal and tidally influenced environment. Both the river and the upland/hinterland environments are of limited impact for the reconstruction. The difference between the composition of the palynological and palaeobotanical associations evidence the discrepancies obtained using only one of those proxies. The macroremains reflect the local palaeoenvironments better, although subjected to a transport bias (e.g. missing upland elements and delicate organs), whereas the palynomorphs permit to reconstruct the regional palaeoclimate. Considering that the flora of Sardinia is the southernmost of all Middle Jurassic European floras, this multidisciplinary study increases our understanding of the terrestrial environments during that period of time.

“…During the Permian, herbivory style had already expanded and diversified though it differed significantly from that in the preceding Pennsylvanian (Wang et al 2009, Stull et al 2013. After the end-Permian mass extinction event, there is little evidence of arthropod-plant interactions for an interval of about 5 million years (Krassilov & Karasev 2008, Shcherbakov 2008, Labandeira 2005, 2006a, Kustatscher et al 2014. During the Middle Triassic, both the diversity and intensity of insect herbivory were low, but these increased just before the Late Triassic (Labandeira & Currano 2013).…”
