Carnivores from the Borsuka Cave (southern Poland) as an example of changes in carnivore assemblages dur- ing MIS 2 and MIS 1. Acta zool. cracov., 60(2): 105-146. Abstract. Two faunal assemblages were identified in the fossil material of carnivores from the Borsuka Cave. The older one, of Late Pleistocene age, found in layers V-VII and dated as the end of MIS 3 and MIS 2, included nine species: Vulpes lagopus, Vulpes sp., Ursus arctos arctos, Gulo gulo, Meles meles, Martes martes, Mustela erminea, Mustela nivalis and Lynx lynx. The younger assemblage, dated as MIS 1 and found in layers I-IV, com- prised six species: Vulpes vulpes, Ursus arctos arctos, Meles meles, Martes martes, Mus- tela ex. gr. eversmanii-putorius and Felis silvestris. The carnivore material was represented by almost all skeletal elements, with the majority constituted by cranial bones, isolated teeth, vertebrae, metacarpals and metatarsals. Remains of Vulpes vulpes and Meles meles were the most abundant; the presence of young individuals of both spe- cies confirmed that they used the cave as a shelter and to raise cubs.

  • Craft Masonry in Genesee & Wyoming County, New York
    Craft Masonry in Genesee & Wyoming County, New York Compiled by R.’.W.’. Gary L. Heinmiller Director, Onondaga & Oswego Masonic Districts Historical Societies (OMDHS) www.omdhs.syracusemasons.com February 2010 Almost all of the land west of the Genesee River, including all of present day Wyoming County, was part of the Holland Land Purchase in 1793 and was sold through the Holland Land Company's office in Batavia, starting in 1801. Genesee County was created by a splitting of Ontario County in 1802. This was much larger than the present Genesee County, however. It was reduced in size in 1806 by creating Allegany County; again in 1808 by creating Cattaraugus, Chautauqua, and Niagara Counties. Niagara County at that time also included the present Erie County. In 1821, portions of Genesee County were combined with portions of Ontario County to create Livingston and Monroe Counties. Genesee County was further reduced in size in 1824 by creating Orleans County. Finally, in 1841, Wyoming County was created from Genesee County. Considering the history of Freemasonry in Genesee County one must keep in mind that through the years many of what originally appeared in Genesee County are now in one of other country which were later organized from it. Please refer to the notes below in red, which indicate such Lodges which were originally in Genesee County and would now be in another county. Lodge Numbers with an asterisk are presently active as of 2004, the most current Proceedings printed by the Grand Lodge of New York, as the compiling of this data.

Thus, if a network creates different "line items" to denote different seasons or different day/time periods of the same series within the calendar year, both entries are listed separately.
