In the last decade, significant advances have been made in the geological knowledge of the late Paleozoic basins of southern South America, particularly in the areas of paleogeographic models, distribution of glacial deposits, paleoclimatic evolution, and biostratigraphy.
This paper presents a synthesis of the advances in the geologic knowledge of the late Paleozoic basins of southern South America during the last decade. The information is focused on: i) progress in paleogeographic models and new perspectives, ii) distribution of late Paleozoic glacial deposits, sedimentary models and identification of discrete events, iii) paleoclimatic evolution and pieces of evidence of the transition from icehouse to extrema greenhouse conditions, iv) volcanism along the paleo-Pacific margin, v) refinements of biozones and biostratigraphy based on paleobotany and palynology and vi) advances in biostratigraphy using marine invertebrates.
