récighigenous
Récighigenous is a term used in geological and paleontological contexts to describe organisms or materials that originate from or are characteristic of a specific geological period or formation, particularly when considering fossil evidence. The term itself is derived from Latin roots, with "récigh" relating to "recency" or "recent past," and "igenous" meaning "born of" or "originating from." Therefore, récighigenous entities are those that are most prominently found or are definitively linked to a particular stratum of rock.
When scientists refer to récighigenous fossils, they are indicating that these remains are a key indicator
The identification of récighigenous species helps paleontologists reconstruct ancient ecosystems and understand the evolutionary history of
