Abstract
Chanopsis lombardi (Teleostei, Osteoglossiformes) du Cretace inferieur continental de la Republique Democratique du Congo. Commentaires sur l’evolution du squelette caudal chez les poissons osteoglossiformes. Le crâne, la ceinture pectorale, les vertebres, le squelette caudal et les ecailles du teleosteen osteoglossiforme Chanopsis lombardi, du Cretace inferieur continental de la Republique Democratique du Congo, sont etudies en details. Les caracteres caudaux et les ecailles de Chanopsis situent ce poisson comme le membre le plus primitif de la famille des Osteoglossidae sensu lato (incluant les Pantodontidae et les Arapaimidae), ceux des Singididae (Singida et Chauliopareion) montrent que cette famille represente une lignee distincte des Osteoglossidae.
期刊介绍:
Geologica Belgica is a Belgian journal that welcomes papers concerning all aspects of the earth sciences, with a particular emphasis on the regional geology of Belgium, North West Europe and central Africa. Papers not dedicated to the geology of Belgium, North West Europe and central Africa are only accepted when one of the authors is linked to a Belgian University or Institution. Thematic issues are highly appreciated. In this case, guest editors take in charge the selection of the manuscripts and the subject of the papers can be enlarged. The journal is in open access.
Submitted manuscripts should be concise, presenting material not previously published. The journal also encourages the publication of papers from Belgian junior authors. Short letters are accepted. Papers written in English are preferred. Each mansucript will be reviewed by at least two reviewers.
