María Euridice Páramo-Fonseca (Bogotá, Colombia, 1963) colombian paleontologist and geologist. [1] Paramo is an associate profesor at National University of Colombia in Bogota. She has contributed to the paleontology field in Colombia with the description of several reptiles from the Cretaceus, particularly the mosasaurids Eonanator and Yaguarasaurus.[2]
Biography[edit]
Paramo obtained a bachelor's degree in 1991 at the National University of Colombia, with a thesis called Posición sistemática de un reptil marino con base en los restos fósiles encontrados en capas del Cretácico Superior en Yaguará, Huila (Systematic position of a marine reptile based on the fossil records found in Upper Cretaceous layers in Yaguará, Huila), and a Ph.D in 1997 at the University of Poitiers (Université de Poitiers) with her dissertation Les Vertébrés marins du Turonien de la Vallée Supérieure du Magdalena, Colombie, Systématique, Paléoécologie et Paléobiogéographie (The Turonian marine vertebrates of the Upper Magdalena Valley, Colombia, Systematics, Paleoecology and Paleobiogeography).[2]
Paramo and the paleontologist Fernando Etayo described the first dinosaur fossil found in Colombia, Padillasaurus leivaensis from the Paja Formation close to Villa de Leyva. Paramo also described the mosasaurid Eonatator coellensis from Coello, Tolima, the pliosaurid Stenorhynchosaurus munozi, the icthyosaur Platypterigius sachicarum from the Paja Formation, the mosasaurid Yaguarasaurus columbianus from the La Frontera Formation, Huila department, the ray-finned fish Bachea huilensis, and Pleistocene gomphotherids close to Cartagena.
Páramo has published her work in Spanish, French and English.
