Early Eocene climates were globally warm, with ice-free conditions at both poles. Early 16 Eocene polar landmasses supported extensive forest ecosystems of a primarily temperate biota, 17 but also with abundant thermophilic elements such as crocodilians, and mesothermic taxodioid 18 conifers and angiosperms. The globally warm early Eocene was punctuated by geologically brief 19 hyperthermals such as the Paleocene-Eocene Thermal Maximum (PETM), culminating in the 20 Early Eocene Climatic Optimum (EECO), during which the range of thermophilic plants such as 21 palms extended into the Arctic. Climate models have struggled to reproduce early Eocene Arctic 22 warm winters and high precipitation, with models invoking a variety of mechanisms, from 23 atmospheric CO2 levels that are unsupported by proxy evidence, to the role of an enhanced 24 hydrological cycle to reproduce winters that experienced no direct solar energy input yet remained 25 wet and above freezing.

  • Ancient Giant Wasp Species Discovered by Royal BC Museum Researcher
    November 17, 2015 Ancient giant wasp species discovered by Royal BC Museum researcher VICTORIA, BC Some 53 million years ago, giant wasps, about seven centimetres in length, flew through the landscapes of British Columbia, burrowing into trees and growing their own fungal food sources. Jumping ahead to 2015, Royal BC Museum studies of the fossilized remains of these ancient creatures have resulted in the discovery of three new species of herbivorous wasps. All three have been named in an article published online this week in The Canadian Entomologist, thanks largely in part to the work of Royal BC Museum research associate Dr. Bruce Archibald. Prof. These insects were discovered by Archibald as fossils from the ancient forests of British Columbia and Washington, including at the McAbee Fossil Beds near Cache Creek. Archibald, also a research associate with Simon Fraser University , described the discoveries with Dr. Alexandr Rasnitsyn of the Russian Academy of Sciences in Moscow and the Natural History Museum, London. tool to understanding our natural world. hope to better understand how ancient forests and the insects that lived in them were affected by differing climates, Archibald said The horntail wood-wasp, which the researchers named Ypresiosirex orthosemos, resembles its modern relatives, and like them, was a strikingly large insect. Horntail wood-wasps are forest pests today: their young bore tunnels through wood to create gardens in which they grow the fungus that they eat. A secretion the wasp then produces mmune system, and the fungus emits plant poisons, eventually killing it. The authors report that all of the elements that their modern relatives prefer today were in place in our region by the time of the Ypresiosirex orthosemos.

The superfamily is widely distributed in modern aquatic environments in the Southern Hemisphere, except in Africa and Antarctica, as well as in Australia, New Zealand, and South America in the fossil record. The occurrence of a single species in the Eocene of North America suggests a Cretaceous or Paleogene dispersal from the Southern Hemisphere through eastern Asia. Remarkable preservation of the specimens reveals traces of muscles, the endophragmal skeleton, and the intestinal tract. KEY WORDS: British Columbia, crayfish, Eocene, Parastacoidea, remarkable preservation DOI: 10.1651/10-3399.1 INTRODUCTION The geographic extent of the lake in which the McAbee sediments were deposited is not known because of the Freshwater crayfish are among the rarest decapod crusta- discontinuous nature of the lacustrine deposits, although cean fossils in North America with only two species known similar diatomaceous beds are known from other sites in to us (Hobbs, 1974; Feldmann et al., 1981; Schweitzer et south-central British Columbia over 50 km north and south al., 2010).
