  • Influence of Agglomerations on the Development of Tourism in the Lviv Region
    Studia Periegetica nr 3(27)/2019 DOI: 10.26349/st.per.0027.03 HALYNA LABINSKA* Influence of Agglomerations on the Development of Tourism in the Lviv Region Abstract. The author proposes a method of studying the influence of agglomerations on the development of tourism. The influence of agglomerations on the development of tourism is -il lustrated by the case of the Lviv region and the use of correlation analysis. In addition, official statistics about the main indicator of the tourism industry by region and city are subjected to centrographic analysis. The coincidence of weight centers confirms the exceptional influence of the Lviv agglomeration on the development of tourism in the region, which is illustrated with a cartographic visualization. Keywords: agglomeration, tourism, research methodology 1. Introduction Urbanization, as a complex social process, affects all aspects of society. The role of cities, especially large cities, in the life of Ukraine and its regions will only grow. The growing influence of cities on people’s lives and their activities was noted in the early 20th century by the professor V. Kubiyovych [1927]. Mochnachuk and Shypovych identified three stages of urbanization in Ukraine during the second half of the 20th century: 1) urbanization as a process of urban growth; 2) suburbanization – erosion of urban nuclei, formation of ag- glomerations; 3) rurbanization – urbanization of rural settlements within urban- ized areas [Mochnachuk, Shypovych 1972: 41-48]. The stage of rurbanization is ** Ivan Franko National University of Lviv (Ukraine), Department of Geography of Ukraine, e-mail: [email protected], orcid.org/0000-0002-9713-6291. 46 Halyna Labinska consistent with the classic definition of “agglomeration” in the context of Euro- pean urbanism: a system that includes the city and its environs (Pierre Merlen and Francoise Shoe).

  • New Ischnacanthiform Jaw Bones from the Lower Devonian of Podolia, Ukraine
    New ischnacanthiform jaw bones from the Lower Devonian of Podolia, Ukraine VICTOR VOICHYSHYN and HUBERT SZANIAWSKI Voichyshyn, V. and Szaniawski, H. 2018. New ischnacanthiform jaw bones from the Lower Devonian of Podolia, Ukraine. Acta Palaeontologica Polonica 63 (2): 327–339. Investigation of fish fauna assemblages obtained by dissolution of calcareous rock samples from Early Devonian marine deposits of Podolia revealed new material of ischnacanthiform jaw bones. One family Podoliacanthidae fam. nov. and two new genera and species, Drygantacanthus semirotunda gen. et sp. nov. and Kasperacanthus serratus gen. et sp. nov., are established. The new family is based on one main key feature, the presence of denticle groups of Podoliacanthus type situated on the lingual tooth row. The family comprises three genera, Podoliacanthus, Drygantacanthus gen. nov., and Kasperacanthus gen. nov., as well as one new form undetermined to generic level. Another new form described in open nomenclature displays the remains of the most powerful known jaws among Podolian ischnacanthids known to now. The new forms have diverse main teeth morphology, which probably reflect differentiated hunting methods. Key words: Acanthodii, Ischnacanthiformes, dentigerous jaw bone, Devonian, Lochkovian, Podolia.

Robocza wersja wykazu zawiera zalecane polskie nazwy wg stanu na 26 czerwca 2013 r. – do czasu ostatecznej publikacji lista tych nazw może ulec niewielkim zmianom. Układ wykazu bazuje na układzie zastosowanym w zeszytach „Nazewnictwa geograficznego świata”. Wykaz podzielono na części odpowiadające częściom świata (Europa, Azja, Afryka, Ameryka Północna, Ameryka Południowa, Australia i Oceania, Antarktyka, formy podmorskie). Każda z części rozpoczyna się listą zalecanych nazw oceanów oraz wielkich regionów, które swym zasięgiem przekraczają z reguły powierzchnie kilku krajów. Następnie zamieszczono nazwy według państw i terytoriów. Z kolei nazwy poszczególnych obiektów geograficznych ułożono z podziałem na kategorie obiektów. W ramach poszczególnych kategorii nazwy ułożono alfabetycznie w szyku właściwym (prostym). Hasła odnoszące się do poszczególnych obiektów geograficznych zawierają zalecaną nazwę polską, a następnie nazwę oryginalną, w języku urzędowym (endonim) – lub nazwy oryginalne, jeśli obowiązuje więcej niż jeden język urzędowy albo dany obiekt ma ustalone nazwy w kilku językach. Jeżeli podawane są polskie nazwy wariantowe (np. Mała Syrta; Zatoka Kabiska), to nazwa pierwsza w kolejności jest tą, którą Komisja uważa za właściwszą, uznając jednak pozostałe za dopuszczalne (wyjątek stanowią tu długie (oficjalne) nazwy niektórych jednostek administracyjnych). Czasem podawana jest tylko polska nazwa – oznacza to, że dany obiekt geograficzny nie jest nazywany w kraju, w którym jest położony lub nie odnaleziono poprawnej lokalnej nazwy tego obiektu. W przypadku nazw wariantowych w językach urzędowych na pierwszym miejscu podawano nazwę główną danego obiektu. Dla niektórych obiektów podano także, w nawiasie na końcu hasła, bardziej znane polskie nazwy historyczne.
