María Euridice Páramo Fonseca (Bogotá, Colombia) is a Colombian paleontologist and geologist.[1] She has contributed on the paleontology in Colombia in the fields of describing various Cretaceous reptiles, most notably the mosasaurs Eonatator and Yaguarasaurus.
Biography
In 1991, Páramo obtained her MSc. degree from the Universidad Nacional de Colombia with a thesis titled Posición Sistemática de un reptil marino con base en los restos fósiles encontrados en capas del Cretácico Superior en Yaguará, Huila and her PhD degree in 1997 from the Université de Poitiers with a thesis Les Vertébrés marins du Turonien de la Vallée Supérieure du Magdalena, Colombie, Systématique, Paléoécologie et Paléobiogéographie.[2] María Páramo is lecturer at the Universidad Nacional de Colombia in Bogotá since 2006.[3]
Páramo, together with fellow paleontologist Fernando Etayo, collaborated in describing the first dinosaur fossil found in Colombia, Padillasaurus leivaensis from the Paja Formation, close to Villa de Leyva, Boyacá.[4]
Other species described by Páramo are the mosasaur Eonatator coellensis from Coello, Tolima,[5] the pliosaur Stenorhynchosaurus munozi,[6] and ichthyosaur Platypterigius sachicarum from the Paja Formation,[7] the mosasaur Yaguarasaurus columbianus from the La Frontera Formation, Huila,[8], fossil fish species Bachea huilensis from the Villeta Group,[9] and Gomphotheres from Pleistocene beds close to Cartagena.[10]
Páramo has published in Spanish, French and English.[2]
