Comment: Krutzsch 1967 after having studied spores of all recent species of Osmunda , proposes to maintain Verrucosisporites for Paleozoic spores of this affinity and morphology, and to broaden the diagnosis of Baculatisporites so it will encompass all Mesozoic spores with osmundoid character of ornamentation, which includes ruguiate and baculate sculpture. Similar sculpture can be found, amongst others, in the genera Todea and Lepidopteris of the Osmundaceae . Krutzsch states that at present only few fossil spores can be identified

  • Biodiversity and the Reconstruction of Early Jurassic Flora from the Mecsek
    Acta Palaeobotanica 51(2): 127–179, 2011 Biodiversity and the reconstruction of Early Jurassic fl ora from the Mecsek Mountains (southern Hungary) MARIA BARBACKA Hungarian Natural History Museum, Department of Botany, H-1476, P.O. Box 222, W. Szafer Institute of Botany, Polish Academy of Sciences, Lubicz 46, 31-512 Kraków, Poland; e-mail: [email protected] Received 15 June 2011; accepted for publication 27 October 2011 ABSTRACT. Rich material from Hungary’s Early Jurassic (the Mecsek Mts.) was investigated in a palaeoen- vironmental context. The locality (or, more precisely, area with a number of fossiliferous sites) is known as a delta plain, showing diverse facies, which suggest different landscapes with corresponding plant assemblages. Taphonomical observations proved that autochthonous and parautochthonous plant associations were present. The reconstruction of the biomes is based on the co-occurrence of taxa and their connection with the rock matrix and sites in the locality, as well as the environmental adaptation of the plants expressed in their morphology and cuticular structure. The climatic parameters were confi rmed as typical for the Early Jurassic by resolution of a palaeoatmospheric CO2 level based on the stomatal index of one of the common species, Ginkgoites mar- ginatus (Nathorst) Florin. Plant communities were differentiated with the help of Detrended Correspondence Analysis (DCA); the rela- tionship between taxa and sites and lithofacies and sites, were analysed by Ward’s minimal variance and cluste- red with the help

  • Exine Morphology and Ultrastructure of Duplicisporites from the Triassic of Italy
    Grana 44: 337–342, 2005 Exine morphology and ultrastructure of Duplicisporites from the Triassic of Italy NATALIA E. ZAVIALOVA and GUIDO ROGHI Zavialova, N. E. & Roghi, G. 2005. Exine morphology and ultrastructure of Duplicisporites from the Triassic of Italy. – Grana 44: 337–342. ISSN 0017-3134. A morphological study of dispersed Circumpolles pollen grains from the Upper Triassic of the Southern Alps has been initiated with the genus Duplicisporites. Individual pollen grains were studied by means of scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Seen with SEM the pollen surface is finely verrucate with low verrucae of different sizes. A sub-equatorial continuous rimula is clearly visible. The proximal trilete scar is small and indistinct. TEM images reveal a bi-layered exine. The ectexine is formed by numerous small, closely packed, granulae subdivided by irregularly-spaced cavities. In the region of the subequatorial canal, the ectexine becomes thinner, about 1/3 of the usual thickness. At places, the ectexine is slightly separated from the underlying endexine. The endexine is prominent and significantly darker than the ectexine. It is homogeneous and of constant thickness. On the basis of its older age, with respect to Classopollis, the present ultrastructural dataset provides information on the possible origin of cheirolepidiaceous-type morphology. Natalia E.

  • Dinosaur Ichnotaxa from the Lower Jurassic of Hungary
    Geological Quarterly, Vol.40,No.l,1996,p.1l9- 128 Gerard GIERLrNSKI Dinosaur ichnotaxa from the Lower Jurassic of Hungary The Early Jurassic strata of the Mecsek Coal Fonnatioo of southern Hungary revealed new dinosaur tracks. Two ichnospecies of Gralla/or /uberosus (Hitchcock 1836) Weems 1992 and Kayen/aplIS soltykovensis (Gierliriski 1991) comb. nov. have been recognized. The iCMotaxonomy of Kayelilaplis is emended and supplemented by a ichnotaxon previously designated as "Gralla/or (Eubrontes) soltykovensis". INTRODUCTION Occurrence of dinosaur tracks in Hungary is restricted to the Early Liassic deposits of the Mecsek Coal Formation, in the Pecs area. The first discoveries were reported from the Vasas mine and Komlo CA. Tasnadi Kubacska, 1967, 1968. 1970; L. Kordos. 1983). Later. dinosaur tracks were also found in the Pecsbanya mine (K. Hips et aI., i989). New material described herein was collected in September, 1995. in the Vasas and Pecsbanya opencast coal mines. Contrary to L. Kordos (1983), the features of hitherto discovered ichnites from Hungary indicate their theropod affinity (not ornithischian, as L. Kordos postulated). The tracks resemble well known cosmopolitan theropod ichnotaxa of Grallator and Kayentapus.

Egy évvel ezelőtt, 2018 márciusában Társulatunk új vezetőséget választott, amely a következő fő célkitű - zésekkel látott munkához: 1. A Társulat 170 éves múltjához méltó szakmai programok, hazai és nemzetközi tudományos konferenciák, terepbejárások szervezése, szakmai tematikus továbbképzések rendezése, a területi szervezetek és tematikus szakosztályok működésének segítése, tagtársaink új és életképes ötleteinek felhasználása, illetve megvaló - sítása. 2. Az ipari partnerekkel korábban kialakított kapcsolatok ápolása és további potenciális támogatók keresése. Az elmúlt években elnyert európai uniós pályázatok folyamatos teljesítése és egyéb pályázati lehetőségek felkutatása a Társulat működésének pénzügyi biztosítása érdekében. 3. Programjaink, rendezvényeink „fiatalbaráttá”, az ifjú szakemberek számára is vonzóvá tétele. Ennek célja, hogy az egyetemi hallgatók és a fiatal geológusok ne csak egy komoly, tudományos szervezetet lássanak a Társulatban, hanem modern, fiatalos lendülettel működő közösséget is, ahová nemcsak belépni, hanem ahol dolgozni is érdemes. 4. Az elmúlt egy-két évtizedben egyre inkább előtérbe kerülő ismeretterjesztő tevékenység folytatása, a geológiai örökségek bemutatása és népszerűsítése. A földtudományok megismertetése és megszerettetése a nagyközönséggel, elsősorban a fiatalokkal, a gyerekekkel, hiszen ők azok, akik nem csupán szakmánk, de Társulatunk jövőjének is a

Our study is based on newly collected material from additional track-bearing beds. The description of the two largest preserved surfaces, containing a total of 102 tracks that can be referred to 21 trackways, is provided here. This represents the first attempt to measure, map and compare the tracks of these bipedal, functionally tridactyl dinosaurs in several associated trackways. Significant morphological variability can be observed (e.g. depth, presence or absence of a metatarsal impression, digit length, digit divarication angle) that is explained by differences in physical parameters of the substrate. The mean of pes length is 16.3 cm in tracksite PB1 and 19.9 cm in tracksite PB2.
