Asian Paleocene and early Eocene strata are subdivided into four biochronological units based on the fossil mammals (Land Mammal Ages). From oldest to youngest, they are the Shanghuan, the Nongshanian, the Gashatan, and the Bumbanian Asian Land Mammal Ages (ALMA). Recent paleomagnetic data from the Nanxiong Basin indicate that the base of the Shanghuan lies about 2/3 the way up Chron C29r. Nanxiong data and recent paleomagnetic and isotopic results from the Chijiang Basin show that the Shanghuan-Nongshanian ALMA boundary lies between the upper part of Chron C27n and the lower part of Chron C26r, close to the Chron C27n-C26r reversal.

  • Valorisation of Reutealis Trisperma Seed from Papua for the Production of Non-Edible Oil and Protein-Rich Biomass
    International Proceedings of Chemical, Biological and Environmental Engineering, V0l. 93 (2016) DOI: 10.7763/IPCBEE. 2016. V93. 3 Valorisation of Reutealis Trisperma Seed from Papua for the Production of Non-Edible Oil and Protein-Rich Biomass Robert Manurung 1, Muhammad Yusuf Abduh 1, Mochammad Hirza Nadia 1, Kardina Sari Wardhani 1, and Khalilan Lambangsari 1 1 School of Life Sciences and Technology, Institut Teknologi Bandung, Indonesia Abstract. The valorisation of Reutealis trisperma seed for the production of non-edible oil and protein was investigated. Reutealis trisperma fruits contain approximately 60-61 wt%, d.b. mesocarp, 26-28 wt%, d.b. endosperm and 13 wt%, d.b. endocarp. The endosperm of ripe Reutealis trisperma fruit contains about 54-59 wt%, d.b. non-edible oil whereas the mesocarp contains only 3-9 wt%, d.b. oil. The cake obtained after the extraction of oil from the endosperm was mixed with the endocarp (20 wt% cake and 80 wt% endocarp) and used as feed (50 mg/larva/d) for the cultivation of Hermetia illucens larvae in a rearing container. The feed contains 39.2 wt%, d.b. hemicellulose, 10.9 wt%, d.b. cellulose and 29.9 wt%, d.b. lignin and 0.2 wt%, d.b. ash. The protein content of the feed was 19.1 wt%, d.b. A prepupal dry weight of approximately 50 3 mg/larvae was obtained after 12 d of treatment with an estimated productivity of 10.2 kgprepupae/m container.d. The estimated efficiency of black solider fly larvae in converting digested food was 21.6% with an assimilation efficiency of 27.7%.

  • Acute Toxicity of Extract of Sunan Candlenut (Reutealis Trisperma (Blanco) Airy Shaw) Seeds Nyi Mekar Saptarini*, Resmi Mustarichie
    Research Article Acute Toxicity of Extract of Sunan candlenut (Reutealis trisperma (Blanco) Airy Shaw) Seeds Nyi Mekar Saptarini*, Resmi Mustarichie ABSTRACT Background: Extract of Sunan candlenut (Reutealis trisperma (Blanco) Airy Shaw) seed, the Euphorbiaceae family, has been shown to have anti-alopecia activity. Extract safety must be determined so that the extract can be developed into herbal preparations. Aim: The purpose of this study was to determine the acute toxicity and toxic symptoms of Sunan candlenut seed extract. Materials and Methods: Acute toxicity assay was conducted on female Swiss Webster mice with various concentrations of Sunan candlenut seed extract (70, 700, 1400, 3500, and 7000 mg/kg BW mice), then observed the toxic symptoms for 14 days. Results: The LD50 value of Sunan candlenut seed extract was 4954 mg/kg BW mice. This extract has a significant effect on the central nervous system by reducing the motoric activity (P = 2 × 10-4) and retablisment (P = 0.002), and the autonomic nervous system by disturbing ptosis (P = 0.032) and breathing (P = 0.001). Conclusion: The Sunan candlenut seed extract was 6th category, i.e., relatively harmless, based on the Hodge and Sterner toxicity scale. KEY WORDS: Acute toxicity, LD50 value, Relatively harmless, Toxic symptoms INTRODUCTION MATERIALS AND METHODS Sunan candlenut (Reutealis trisperma (Blanco) Materials Airy Shaw), the Euphorbiaceae family, is a plant Sunan candlenut seed was collected from 7-year-old from Southeast Asia. This plant grows in lowland tree from the Center for Agricultural Post Harvest [1] to 1000 m asl at 24–30°C. Sunan candlenut seed, Research, Bogor District, West Java Province, empirically, has efficacy as a laxative, anti-lice, Indonesia.

This small form displays a striking selenolophodont morphology associated with a mixture of primitive “condylar- thran” dental characters and derived tapiromorph features. Skopaiolophus is here tentatively referred to a group of Asian tapiromorphs unknown so far. The occurrence of such a form in Pondaung suggests that primitive tapiromorphs might have persisted in southeast Asia until the late middle Eocene while they became extinct elsewhere in both Eurasia and North America. © 2006 Elsevier SAS.

Anew speciesof Glyphea (Decapoda:Palinura) from the La Meseta Formation (Eocene) of Seymour Island, Antarctica. - Acta Palaeon- tologica Polonica 42, 3, 437 445. A new species of palinuran lobster, Glyphea reticulata, from the lowermost part of the Eocene La Meseta Formation on Seymour Island, Antarctica, represents one of the stratigraphically youngest species of Glyphea. The occurrence of the last vestiges of what was previously a cosmopolitan genus in a region dominated by Pacific Ocean faunal influences is significant because the sole extant species of the Glypheidae, Neoglyphea inopinata Forest & Saint Laurent, 1975, is known only from the west Pacific.

Introduction The La Meseta Formation (Elliot & Trautman L98f) is the Eocene to ?early Oligocene sequence of richly fossiliferous shallow marine deposits exposed in the northern portion of Seymour Island,Antarctic Peninsula (Fig. 1).It comprisesan approximately 800 m thick successionof poorly consolidatedsandstones and siltstoneswith very well preserved micro- and macrofossils (Stilwell & Zinsmeister L992). Anomuran and brachyuran decapod crustaceansare found throughout most of the formation and documenta remarkablydiverse assemblagein such a high latitude setting(Feldmann & Wilson 1988).The purpose of this work is to describe the first macruranremains from the La Meseta Formation.
