Early Norian flora from Partizansk River Basin of Primorye, Russia

IntroductionThe Late Triassic strata andflora developed andwell outcropped in southern Pri morye,Russia.Thestrata are marine and non-marine alternate for eachother and yield abundant mollusk and plant fossilsinwhich the Late Triassic Mongugai flora is well-known in the world.Kryshtofovich(1910,1921,1924)and Kryshtofovich&Prynada(1932)studiedthis florainthe earlier ti me,and consequently,Sre-brodolyskaja(1958,1961,1968),Schorokhova(1975,1977,1997,2004)and Krassilov&Schorokhova(1970,1975)ma…     

华夏植物地理区一个新的亚区——豫淮亚区

本文在自己工作的基础上,结合前人资料,提出了华夏植物地理区一个新的亚区——豫淮亚区,用以概括具有重要特色之位于两淮、徐州、豫西一带的二叠纪植物群区系特征.文中着力刻划了该区具有浓郁地方色彩,极高的属种分异度,保存甚佳之植物群轮廓;划分了三个植物组合,即P|Callipteridium koraiense-Cathaysiopteris whitei-Cordaites schenki组合,P_1~2 Fascipteris spp.-Lobatannularia ensifolia-Gigantonocleaspp.组合,P_1~2 Gigantopteris nicotianaefolia-Lobatannularia multifolia-Psygmorphyllummultipartitum组合.文章还结合二叠纪该区独特的区域构造、古地理、古气候等方面,从不同侧面详塑了豫淮亚区的整体格架.     

A Review of the Concepts and Application of Rehabilitation Following Heavy Mineral Dune Mining

Dune mining has had an enormous impact in some coastal regions. This paper reviews: the concepts of rehabilitation, restoration and revegetation as applied to dune mining for heavy minerals, the basic principles of dune rehabilitation, some case studies of rehabilitation and its success, the methods for measuring the success of rehabilitation, the process of producing a dune rehabilitation plan, and makes recommendations for pilot studies and guidelines for the implementation of the rehabilitation plan. Studies in Australia and South Africa in particular, provide successful models to draw upon in formulating the criteria and principles discussed in this paper.

新疆种子植物科的区系地理成分分析

对新疆种子植物区系及其科的组成和地理成分进行研究,结果表明：（1）新疆野生种子植物中科的优势现象很明显,种类超向于集中在少数科内。（2）科的地理成分方面,世界广布科占有很高的比例（35．0％）,说明新疆区系具有明显的过渡性;但各类温带分布科比例更大（52．0％）。（3）新疆区系的表征科有特殊性,如含有世界广布的藜科、十字花科、蓼科、石竹科等,这是与热带、亚热带区系的组成完全不同的;但其它表征科、优势科仍以温带科或主产温带的科为主。     

华夏植物群起源中心的研究

要贺兰山一带石炭纪、二叠纪地层发育,晚石炭世早期至二叠纪的地层连续出露,其中富含植物化石,特别是晚石炭世纳缪尔B—C期的红土洼组含丰富的早期华夏植物群分子。笔者多年来的研究表明,在此连续剖面上,植物化石反映出植物群的演化趋势颇为明显,构成石炭纪和二叠纪植物群较为连续的演化序列。植物群中含有大量的华夏型分子,属典型的华夏植物群。内蒙古阿拉善左旗呼鲁斯太剖面晚石炭世早期红土洼组是迄今为止含华夏植物群的最有代表性层位,所含植物化石是目前已记载的最为丰富的晚石炭世早期华夏型植物组合,因此笔者认为贺兰山一带可视为华夏植物群的起源中心。     

Taxonomic composition and seasonality of diatoms in three Dinaric karstic lakes in Croatia

The composition and temporal distribution of planktonic diatoms were studied in three small shallow karstic lakes – Modro Oko, Desne, and Kuti – throughout the seasons in 1994, 1995, 1997, and 1998. Physico-chemical parameters did not differ among the three lakes, except for NO₃ concentrations. Altogether, 137 diatom taxa within 41 genera were found in all three lakes combined. The highest number of taxa belonged to the genera Surirella (13), Navicula (12), andCymbella (9). Most taxa were tychoplanktonic, with true panktonic taxa contributing only 14% of the total. Despite their physical-chemical similarity, the lakes showed differences in the structure and dynamics of their diatom communities. Blooms occurred at different times in each of the lakes, and community similarity (Jaccard index) among all three was low (17.6–29.1%). The highest mean values of surface diatom abundance in Modro Oko (2199 cells L⁻¹), Desne (7900 cells L⁻¹), and Kuti (20690 cells L⁻¹) were not significantly different. Margalef's species richness index did not differ either among the lakes or seasonally. Only five diatom taxa in quantitative samples, and 22 taxa in net-samples, were common to all lakes. The most frequent diatoms were Cyclotella striata (56–93%), Fragilaria ulna (50–67%), and Asterionella formosa (27–83%). The most abundant taxa in Modro Oko, Desne, and Kuti were, respectively, Cymbella sp. 1 (402 cells L⁻¹), Cyclotella striata (3000 cells L⁻¹) and Asterionella formosa (20690 cells L⁻¹). Eighteen taxa were recorded for the first time in Croatia: Amphora commutata, Caloneis amphisbaena var. subsalina, C. silicula var. peisonis, Campylodiscus echeneis, Coscinodiscus lacustris, Denticula elegans, Gyrosigma acuminatum var. lacustre, G. distortum var. parkeri, G. fasciola, Navicula menisculus var. menisculus, N. pusilla, N. helensis, Stauroneis parvula var. prominula, Staurosira construens f. subsalina, Stephanodiscus sp. 1, Surirella gracilis, S. ovalis, and S. striatula. The genus Stephanodiscus was recorded for the first time in Croatia.
