The Glaciofluvial Terrace in the Moravian Gate (Czech Republic)
Journal of Anthropozoic Pages 8 – – Czech Geological Survey ISBN 978-80-7075-761–1 Geological Sciences 27 51–61 figures table plate Prague 2011 ISSN 0036-5270 The glaciofluvial terrace in the Moravian Gate (Czech republic) Glacifluviální terasa v Moravské bráně Jaroslav Tyráček † TyráČek, J. (2011): The glaciofluvial terrace in the Moravian Gate (Czech Republic). – Sbor. geol. Věd, Antropozoikum, 27, 51–61. Praha. Key words: northern Moravia, Pliocene, Pleistocene, continental glaciation Abstract: The sediments exotic to local geological setting that occur close to the European water-divide in the Moravian Gate have been primarily interpreted as glacial since the end of the 19th century. Because the Scandinavian ice sheet advanced twice into the Moravian Gate, the age of its maximum extent, level and direction of the meltwater drainage were the most important topics. The term glaciofluvial terrace, introduced into the literature by Hassinger (1914) is intimately linked with the maximum glaciation, which is here dated to the Elsterian Stage glacial. In fact, however, the Elsterian glacier halted far from the divide and no traces of its having crossed this barrier have been identified. Nor has the drainage via the Moravian Gate during the Elsterian times been confirmed. Two gravel occurrences at Nad dolama and Horecko about 70–80 m above the Bečva River have been proposed as the representatives of the glaciofluvial terrace. They are composed of local lithologies derived from the Nízký Jeseník upland. No exotic rocks have been identified in these sediments not even those from the flysch conglomerates, which occur in the upper Carpathian part of the Bečva River course. -

Novikoff 1*, Józef Mitka 2, Alexander Kuzyarin 1, Oleg Orlov 1, Marina Ragulina 1 Abstract. The paper is a contribution to ecology and chorology ofAconitum in high-mountain zone of the Ukrainian Carpathians. It was confirmed that genusAconitum in the Chornogora mountain range is represented by 14 taxa, and 7 more taxa were listed as potential for this region. These taxa belong to 3 subgenera and are divided on 4 main biomorphological groups delimited on the base of their habitat, life form, ecology and altitudinal distribution. The soil and vegetation types for all taxa have been identified and the maps of their distribution have been prepared. The most influent threats and their categories were identified. Threat category for A. × nanum was changed from DD to VU, and for A. firmum subsp. fussianum from NT to VU.

In order to characterize the pollution in the region and identify the pollution origin, Instrumental Neutron Activation Analysis (INAA) was employed for determination of 34 elements in PM10 samples collected at a height of 90 m above ground level. From April 2018 to March 2019, 111 PM10 samples from eight basic wind directions and calm and two smog situations were sampled. The elemental composition significantly varied depending on season and sampling conditions. -
Respiratory Adaptation to Climate in Modern Humans and Upper Palaeolithic Individuals from Sungir and Mladeč Ekaterina Stansfeld1*, Philipp Mitteroecker1, Sergey Y
www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Respiratory adaptation to climate in modern humans and Upper Palaeolithic individuals from Sungir and Mladeč Ekaterina Stansfeld1*, Philipp Mitteroecker1, Sergey Y. Vasilyev2, Sergey Vasilyev3 & Lauren N. Butaric4 As our human ancestors migrated into Eurasia, they faced a considerably harsher climate, but the extent to which human cranial morphology has adapted to this climate is still debated. In particular, it remains unclear when such facial adaptations arose in human populations. Here, we explore climate-associated features of face shape in a worldwide modern human sample using 3D geometric morphometrics and a novel application of reduced rank regression. Based on these data, we assess climate adaptations in two crucial Upper Palaeolithic human fossils, Sungir and Mladeč, associated with a boreal-to-temperate climate. We found several aspects of facial shape, especially the relative dimensions of the external nose, internal nose and maxillary sinuses, that are strongly associated with temperature and humidity, even after accounting for autocorrelation due to geographical proximity of populations. For these features, both fossils revealed adaptations to a dry environment, with Sungir being strongly associated with cold temperatures and Mladeč with warm-to-hot temperatures. These results suggest relatively quick adaptative rates of facial morphology in Upper Palaeolithic Europe. Te presence and the nature of climate adaptation in modern humans is a highly debated question, and not much is known about the speed with which these adaptations emerge. Previous studies demonstrated that the facial morphology of recent modern human groups has likely been infuenced by adaptation to cold and dry climates1–9. Although the age and rate of such adaptations have not been assessed, several lines of evidence indicate that early modern humans faced variable and sometimes harsh environments of the Marine Isotope Stage 3 (MIS3) as they settled in Europe 40,000 years BC 10. -
Aphid Species (Hemiptera: Aphididae) New in the Fauna of the Eastern Beskid Mountains (Southern Poland)
FRAGMENTA FAUNISTICA 61 (1): 35–38, 2018 PL ISSN 0015-9301 © MUSEUM AND INSTITUTE OF ZOOLOGY PAS DOI 10.3161/00159301FF2018.61.1.035 Aphid species (Hemiptera: Aphididae) new in the fauna of the Eastern Beskid Mountains (southern Poland) Natalia KASZYCA, Miłosz MORAWSKI, Artur TASZAKOWSKI and Łukasz DEPA Department of Zoology, Faculty of Biology and Environmental Protection, University of Silesia, Bankowa 9, 40-007 Katowice, Poland; [email protected], [email protected], [email protected], [email protected] (corresponding author) Abstract: Fifteen aphid species were found in the Eastern Beskid Mountains for the first time during the short faunistic study. Currently, 119 aphid species are recorded from this region, which may still constitute only a fraction of the fauna of neighboring regions and testify to an insufficient faunistic study on aphids. Key words: faunistics, new records, aphids, zoogeography, Poland INTRODUCTION Aphididae belong to the order Hemiptera, suborder Sternorrhyncha, which apart from aphids includes various insect groups that are sap-sucking phytophages (Osiadacz & Hałaj 2009). Aphids, contrary to most of other insects, are a group reaching its highest species diversity in the zone of moderate climates. Poland is among the best studied European countries in terms of aphid fauna, with 766 recorded aphid taxa (Wojciechowski et al. 2015, Kanturski et al. 2017). However, particular regions of Poland are still unevenly studied (Osiadacz & Hałaj 2009). The region of the Eastern Beskid Mountains still is far from being satisfactorily investigated, despite intensive research of Hemiptera in the last decade (e.g. Taszakowski 2012, Taszakowski et al. 2015b, Taszakowski & Gorczyca 2018) aphids were not included in these investigations. -

The species was determined as Sphagnum quinquefarium (Lindb. ex Braithw.) Warnst. (five-ranked bog-moss), a protected species (on the basis of the 66/2015. (X. 26.) FM regulations) which was not until now described in the area of the Mátra Mountains. This species became known only from a few localities in Hungary, but was more frequent on the edge of the Carpathian Basin and in part of the outside border of our country. We collected the relevant data for the S. quinquefarium from the largest Herbarium database in Hungary and the countries of the Carpathian Basin and used the available botanical literature database. The peat moss species studied is very common in the High Tatras of Slovakia and throughout the Carpathian Mountains of Romania. This present paper summarises the recent distributional knowledge about S. quinquefarium distribution in the Carpathian Basin, outside of Hungary, on the basis of herbarium and literature data. -

A morphometric analysis based on 316 herbarium specimens of Senecio nemorensis agg. indicated the occurrence of the following four species in Poland: S. germanicus Wallr., S. hercynicus Herborg, S. ovatus (G. Gaertn. et al.) Willd. and S. ucranicus Hodálová. Principal component analysis (PCA), analysis of variance (ANOVA)/Kruskal-Wallis test and canonical discriminant analysis (CDA) were applied. Quantitative characters such as supplementary bract length, leaf base width, ligule length and the supplementary/involucral bract length ratio clearly discriminated taxa within S. nemorensis agg. Included is a distribution map of the investigated species based on the examined material, with particular emphasis on the course of the northeastern boundary of S. hercynicus and the northwestern boundary of S. ucranicus. Also given is a determination key for species within S. nemorensis agg. in Poland, together with morphological descriptions of particular species.
