Las Hoyas is a Early Cretaceous lagerst\xe4tte (site of special preservation) located close to the city of Cuenca, Spain. In this episode, we welcome \xc1ngela Delgado Buscalioni and Francisco Jos\xe9 Poyato-Ariza, both from the Universidad Aut\xf3noma de Madrid, to discuss the details of this remarkable site. Angela and Francisco have recently edited\xa0a comprehensive overview of the Las Hoyas site.
Like most\xa0lagerst\xe4tten, Las Hoyas is most famous for its vertebrate fossils, but what other taxa can we find there? What was the palaeoenvironment like? And which processes have governed the preservation of the fossils?
