Michael Wachtler Biography

Michael Wachtler is one of the most popular and richest Italian writer who was born on February 2, 1959 in Innichen, Trentino-Alto Adige/South Tyrol, Italy. Michael Wachtler first discovered the fern Gordonopteris Lorigae in a well-preserved state on Kuhwiesenkopf. It was named after Marie Ogilvie Gordon (1864-1939), a Scottish paleaeontologist, geologist, and politician. She was also the first woman to receive the title of Doctor of Science at the University of London. She was also an advocate for equality and support of women and children. (6)

Michael Wachtler began extensive research in the 1990s on fossil cycads. He started first in the Alps, then across Europe. This allowed him to obtain sufficient remains from the Early Permian and all of the Triassic until today. Wachtleropteris Valentinii, named in honor of Michael Wachtler and Ferruccio Valerii, was discovered in sediments of the Early Permian. It is the most basic cycad gymnosperm. The leaves of this shrubby plant were arranged on a stem that reached upwards and branched twice. This is unusual for today’s Cycads. Each leaf was then split into two separate branches. Gymnosperms can be identified by the arrangement of the cones at the ends of pinnate leaves. They are therefore considered “last representatives” of a very primitive and old species with cycadalean affinities from the Devonian to the Permian.

In 1999, Michael Wachtler recovered a partially preserved reptile-skeleton from the Kühwiesenkopf (Prà della Vacca) in the Pragser Dolomites. It was later described and given name by Silvio Renesto and Renato Posenato in 2003 as Megachirella wachtleri. (4)

In 2007, Michael Wachtler discovered a new fossil site with interesting ichnospecies on the Piz da Peres mountain holding an exhausting near-shore paleoecosystem with numerous tetrapod tracks. Especially the new Sphingopus ladinicus-trackways were interesting because they showed a clear tendency towards bipedalism with a functionally three-toed pes as it was possible in the synapomorphies of basal dinosaurs. These characters are interpreted as possible synapomorphies of basal dinosaurs. Therefore, the tracks of Sphingopus ladinicus were interpreted as dinosauroid and not dinosaurian. More realistic would be to indicate them as ‘ancestors’ of dinosaurs or more exactly as an affiliated evolutionary-line.

He participated in mountain expeditions during his time at university. His interest was particularly piqued by crystals and petrified dinosaurs. Nolli Huber was his teacher and he died in 1984 while looking for crystals together. He was involved in the creation of the “Pustertaler Zeitung”, and the “Rundschau von Vinschger”, both newspapers from South Tyrol, between 1980 and 1990. (1)

Michael Wachtler’s researches will try to explain the bizarre angiosperm- genesis using new theories that are based on new discoveries in the Russian Ural region. Natural science is concerned with the evolution of flowering plants. Eduard Suess, an Austrian geologist, developed some theories about isolated landmasses. Eduard Suess, an Austrian geologist, proposed in his 1885 “Antlitz der Erde”, (The Face of the Earth), that there was a large paleo- continent in the north. He named it Angara after a Siberian River. It covered parts of what is today Russia, the Urals, and Siberia. Michael Wachtler discovered several “flowers” in Urals Early Permian sediments. They had different stamens and a gynoecium. Also, some ovule impressions were present. There were many angiosperm lineages in the Early Permian period. These included deciduous trees such as maples, oaks or ash trees, as well as herbaceous plants and grasses like dicots and monocots. All other lineages are possible once the bisexual flower was “invented”. It consists of stamen, carpel, and surrounding petals, sepals, or tepals. We now have coeval rising for all insect groups, as well as the ascension and flowering plants. Paleozoic evidence proved that the hypothesis of hermaphroditic flower was correct. This means that the Magnolia-theory has collapsed.

Michael Wachtler, born 2 February 1959 in Innichen (South Tyrol), is an author and researcher.

In 1998 Michael Wachtler discovered the new fossil site Kühwiesenkopf and Piz da Peres. On the base of the Kühwiesenkopf Michael Wachtler recovered a part of a reptile described later by Silvio Renesto and Renato Posenato as Megachirella wachtleri. It is now regarded as the ancestor of all squamates including snakes and lizards. Soon it was classified as “Garden Eden of the primitive times”.(3)

An audacious hypothesis can be searched in the largest known volcanic events of the last 500 million years of earth’s geological history – the forming of Siberian Traps – spanning one million years between the Permian–Triassic boundary, about 251 to 250 million years ago. Today, basaltic lava covers about 2 million square kilometres there, but the original extension is estimated at about 7 million square kilometres approximately in the region from Siberia over the former Angara-continent. The global catastrophe which happened 251 million years ago involved Angara more than other landmasses. It can be suggested that only with difficulties the angiosperms survived on some isolated refuges. Probably for a long time, till the Cretaceous, they were not able to expand on a large scale. In this case, the most involved victims of these mother of all catastrophes were the angiosperms. (8)

The giant Lycophyta dominated the swamp-jungles in the Carboniferous and it was thought that they declined in a relatively short time on the Permian border. Michael Wachtler discovers that in the Dolomites, the arborescent clubmosses experienced a new golden age in the Triassic, although – with regard to their size – on a lower level.
