Description:
In our paper (Manuella et al. 2015), which arose from our
30-year-long research on the Hyblean xenoliths, we discussed
an exhaustive dataset retrieved from the literature.
We concluded that the unexposed basement of southeastern
Sicily and neighboring areas consists of a remnant of
the Paleo–Mesozoic Ionian–Tethyan oceanic lithosphere.
Our viewpoint is opposite to the most popular theory that
the Hyblean–Pelagian foreland domain is part of the Africa
continental plate.
We acknowledge some comments by Beccaluva et al.
(2015) since they prompted us to explicit some background
information given as implicit in our paper and hence to
reaffirm with more emphasis fundamental aspects of our
research, strongly confirming our previous conclusions.
