Subfossil lemur discoveries from the Beanka Protected Area in western Madagascar
A new fossil site in a previously unexplored part of western Madagascar (the Beanka Protected Area) has yielded remains of many recently extinct vertebrates, including giant lemurs ( Babakotia radofilai , Palaeopropithecus kelyus , Pachylemur sp., and Archaeolemur edwardsi ), carnivores ( Cryptoprocta spelea ), the aardvark-like Plesiorycteropus sp., and giant ground cuckoos ( Coua ). Many of these represent considerable range extensions. Extant …
Evidence for early human arrival in Madagascar is robust
The colonization period of a given region can be defined by multiple types of evidence, including human bone records, environmental proxy signals in sediment cores, human-made artifacts, or anthrop
