The central purpose of this work is to document the sedimentary facies and their depositional and environmental significance, and interpret them in a sequence stratigraphic context. The study explores the possible controls on sedimentation and stratigraphic architecture during Aptian-Turonian. The Tarfaya-Laayoune Basin is an Atlantic basin of passive margin. It belongs to a series of basins developed along the northwest African margin, following the opening of the central Atlantic. It is a Meso-Cenozoic basin, considered as an oil province, which has been infuriated by oil companies, following recent discoveries. The Tarfaya-Laayoune Basin is bounded to the North by the Anti-Atlas, to the South by the Mauritanides, to the East by the Reguibats, and to the West by the Atlantic Ocean (Figure 1). The Aptian-Turonian strata contain a wealth of sedimentary features that are applicable in fields of mixed siliciclastic-carbonate facies analysis and sequence stratigraphy. The strata are enriched in well diversified chronostratigraphically significant fossils such as ammonite and foraminifera, which allows dating of sequence stratigraphic surfaces and therefore correlation with published global sea-level curves. Macroscopic and microscopic features of sedimentary facies will be described using both field (colour, grain size, bed contacts, physical and biogenic sedimentary structures and stratigraphic position) and thin section observations particularly for carbonate deposits. The results of stratigraphic and sedimentological studies will be integrated and correlated with the available subsurface well log data. The study will help to reconstruct the Neocomian platform series of Tan-Tan offshore drilling, and to understand the turbidite system previously described from the offshore. The present study has an advantage as it provides the first comprehensive sedimentologic and sequence stratigraphic interpretations of the Aptian- Turonian strata in the Tarfaya-Lâayoune basin, Southern Morocco. 5 Figure 1: [A] Geographic position of Tarfaya-Laayoune Basin (Southern Morocco), indicated by a square.

Afanasieva, Edward O. Amon Borissiak Paleontological Institute, Russian Academy of Sciences, Moscow, Russia Detailed studies of the Early Permian radiolarians of the Southern Urals and Northern Mugodzhary ridge were started almost simultaneously by pioneering works of H. Kozur (1980– 1989), B.B. Nazarov and A.R. Ormiston (1981–1993), and our research since 1986. Nazarov and Ormiston developed the radiolarian Early Permian biostratigraphic scale, counting 10 biostratons with characteristic radiolarian assemblages (see table below). Our comprehensive study of Early Permian radiolarians of Southern Urals, Northern Mygodzhary and Northern PreCaspian regions (Afanasieva, Amon, 2014–2017) based on own and literature paleontological data for 12 reference sections. At present, we consider as valid 18 Early Permian radiolarian assemblages (see table below), six of which are established for the first time. Asselian radiolarians are differentiated into four characteristic assemblages: earlier known Latentifistula crux, Tormentidae, and two newly assigned: Pseudoalbaillella u-forma – Ps. elegans and Tetragregnon sphaericus – Latentifistula heteroextrema. Sakmarian radiolarians are represented by seven assemblages: Nazarovispongus permicus, Latentidiota circumfusum – Apophysiacus pycnoclada, Camptoalatus monopterygius, Copiellintra bispina, Rectotormentum fornicatum, and three newly assigned: Polyentactinia cisuralica – Pluri stratoentactinia tetrasphaera and Arcoclathrata alekseevi – Apophysiacus sakmaraensis. Artinskian radiolarians are summarized in six assemblages: Arcoclathrata crassiclathrata – Quinqueremis arundinea, Copicyntra acilaxa, Tetracircinata reconda, Polyentactinia lautitia, and two newly assigned Spongentactinia rigida and Entactinia pinrasensis – Microporosa rozhnovi. Kungurian radiolarians are represented by the Pluristratoentactinia uralica – Pseudolithelius permicus assemblage. Middle and Late Permian radiolarians are unknown in the Urals, Northern Mygodzhary and PreCaspian Basin. The stratigraphic positions of the designated radiolarian assemblages are defined according to key groups of microfauna – Foraminifera and Conodonta (see table), due to joint findings in the same beds. This enables high-precision intra- and inter-regional correlations, and the dating of key events in the development of radiolarian fauna of the regions studied. The west of the Great Urals Region belonged to the comparatively narrow and long CisUralian Paleosea at the Early Permian Epoch. This paleobasin

Published online at www.senckenberg.de/arthropod-systematics on May 26, 2020. Editor in charge: Gavin Svenson Abstract. Blaberoidea, comprised of Ectobiidae and Blaberidae, is the most speciose cockroach clade and exhibits immense variation in life history strategies. We analysed the phylogeny of Blaberoidea using four mitochondrial and three nuclear genes from 99 blaberoid taxa. Blaberoidea (excl. Anaplectidae) and Blaberidae were recovered as monophyletic, but Ectobiidae was not; Attaphilinae is deeply subordinate in Blattellinae and herein abandoned. Our results, together with those from other recent phylogenetic studies, show that the structuring of Blaberoidea in Blaberidae, Pseudophyllodromiidae stat. rev., Ectobiidae stat. rev., Blattellidae stat. rev., and Nyctiboridae stat. rev. (with “ectobiid” subfamilies raised to family rank) represents a sound basis for further development of Blaberoidea systematics.

NUMBER 2 236 DECEMBER I7, I965 A Review of the Mastotermitidae (Isoptera), Including a New Fossil Genus from Brazil' BY ALFRED E. EMERSON2 INTRODUCTION The large majority of fossil termites are known only from fragmentary specimens, usually wings alone. These are often distorted or broken, and some of the veins may not be clearly discernible, particularly at the base of the wing near the humeral suture. Many characters of the species and higher taxonomic categories are lacking in the winged caste. The soldier caste, in particular, would add immensely to the accuracy of iden- tification and relationship, but so far no sterile castes are known for any adequately classified fossil species of Tertiary or earlier periods. Fossil termites are rare. The species are often known from single speci- mens only, dispersed in various paleontological collections around the world, and are seldom associated with the collections of modern termites. Thorough revisions based on first-hand study are virtually impossible for any specialist on the Isoptera, and a specialist on living termites has never collected a fossil termite personally. Many specimens were lost during the bombardments of cities during World War II, particularly in Hun- gary and Germany. Fossil termites are usually collected and often studied by paleontolo- gists who are not well acquainted with modern termites, and therefore 1 The present investigation was supported by the National Science Foundation (Grant No. G-25146). 2 Research Associate, Department of Entomology, the American Museum of Natural His- tory, and Professor Emeritus of Zoology, the University of Chicago.

  • Fossil Calibrations for the Cockroach Phylogeny (Insecta, Dictyoptera, Blattodea)
    Palaeontologia Electronica palaeo-electronica.org Fossil calibrations for the cockroach phylogeny (Insecta, Dictyoptera, Blattodea), comments on the use of wings for their identification, and a redescription of the oldest Blaberidae Dominic A. Evangelista, Marie Djernæs, and Manpreet Kaur Kohli ABSTRACT Here we provide the first thorough assessment of the fossil calibrations for diver- gence time estimation of cockroaches. Through a review of published fossil descrip- tions, we evaluate oldest fossils for various nodes in crown Blattodea in accordance with recently proposed best practices. Since most descriptions of fossil cockroaches rely heavily on wing and tegminal venation, we also provide a critical assessment of Rehn (1951), which is the most extensive work on these characters. We find that Rehn (1951) incorrectly reported the state of numerous characters. This, combined with the low number of informative characters in cockroach wings, negatively affects phyloge- netic justifications of some of the oldest purported fossil cockroaches. We conclude that currently the best fossils to use for calibration of the cockroach tree are: Cretahol- ocompsa montsecana, “Gyna” obesa, Cariblattoides labandeirai, and Ectobius kohlsi. One of these, “Gyna” obesa, was insufficiently treated in its original description, so we provide a redescription facilitated by high resolution imagery and modern systematic knowledge. We comment on the difficulty of utilizing the so-called fossil roachoids because their position at the base of Dictyoptera is under dispute and cannot be reli- ably verified. We do not include calibrations for termite lineages. Dominic A. Evangelista, Muséum National d'Histoire Naturelle, 45 Rue Buffon CP50, Paris, France 75005. [email protected] Marie Djernæs.

Biomed J Sci & Tech Res Research Article Open Access Comparative Efficacy of Three Bait Toxicants Against the Subterranean Termite Reticulitermes Santonensis (Isoptera/Blattoidea: Rhinotermitidae) Khalid Z Rasib* and Denis J Wright Department of Life Sciences, Pakistan Received: : November 10, 2018; Published: : November 27, 2018 *Corresponding author: Khalid Z Rasib, Department of Life Sciences, Pakistan Abstract The study was aimed to provide data to assess the risk poses by termites being able to establish and multiply in the UK. This risk can be judged by determining the minimum number of individuals and biotic and abiotic conditions required for establishment of a termite colony. Workers of R. Santonensis were used to determine the minimum colony size that can be established in order to produce mini colonies under laboratory inconditions. the survival Survival in the was laboratory. observed Survival for initial decreased termite numberwith time as in low the as laboratory ten under trials.constant Workers conditions of Reticulitermes at 25°C, 75% Santonensis relative humidity were also over baited 28 weeks. with Results showed that an initial termite number of 250 gave the greatest population survival. Increasing initial termite numbers caused a decrease document the suppression and complete mortality. three commercially available insecticides to test their efficacy at different concentrations using treated bait matrix as Whatmann 1 filter paper to Response of the subterranean termite R. Santonensis Rhinotermitidae (Isoptera: ) to three bait toxicants, Imodacloprid, Thiamethoxam, and hexaflumuron, was evaluated. The results showed that during the 3-weeks test period, all termites were killed by Hexaflumuron at 1000ppm, Thiamethoxam at 100ppm and Imidacloprid at 300ppm.
