ABSTRACT A stable vegetation cover on given habitat conditions can be one of the possible requirements for post‐mining sites, as it can prevent erosion and dustiness of these anthropogenic surfaces and bring several practical future benefits, such as biomass production and microclimate improvement.

A critical revision of the fossil record, stratigraphy and diversity of the Neogene seal genus Monotherium (Carnivora, Phocidae) [PDF]
Historically, Monotherium had been one of the few genera of extinct Phocidae (true seals) that served as a wastebin taxon. Consequently, it did neither aid in understanding phylogenetic relationships of extinct Phocidae, nor in understanding seal ...

Late Miocene Ostracoda from NW Libya [PDF]
Abstract. Nine ostracod species from the Late Miocene Al Khums Formation (exposed 2 km north of Qabilat ash Shurfah, NW Libya) are described and illustrated in this paper. Of these, four species, namely Cytherella libyaensis, Actinocythereis spinosa, Keijella africana and Neomonoceratina miocaenica, are new; one was established by Doruk (1980), one by ...

Abstract We explore phylogenetic relationships within the Pachira sensu lato clade (Bombacoideae, Malvaceae), test the monophyly of the genera Eriotheca and Pachira, and investigate their biogeographic history. The Pachira s.l. clade comprises ca. 72 species that traditionally have been placed in Eriotheca and Pachira. We sampled ca. 79% of its species

Tibet, the Himalaya, Asian monsoons and biodiversity - In what ways are they related? [PDF]
Prevailing dogma asserts that the uplift of Tibet, the onset of the Asian monsoon system and high biodiversity in southern Asia are linked, and that all occurred after 23 million years ago in the Neogene. Here, spanning the last 60 million years of Earth

Carya nux‐taurinensis comb. nov., a fossil‐species incorporating Carya globosa (Juglandaceae)
Abstract The type material of the almost forgotten fossil‐species Juglans nux‐taurinensis is newly analysed, a lectotype is designated, and new conspecific material detected at the Italian type locality La Morra is described. We show that Juglans nux‐taurinensis must be reassigned to Carya because the locule cast of the nutshell shows two inner ...

New insights into the condensed nature and stratigraphic significance of the Late Neogene Ariki Formation, Taranaki Basin [PDF]
The Ariki Formation is a distinctive Late Miocene – Early Pliocene marl facies rich in planktic foraminifera, reaching thicknesses in the range 70 - 109 m in most exploration holes drilled into the Western Platform northwest of Taranaki Peninsula.

Coloration serves several fitness‐related functions, including thermoregulation, immunity, social signaling, sexual selection, and predator avoidance. Consequently, color polymorphism can have a significant impact on a species’ interactions with its environment, including its relationships with predators, prey, and potential mates. The wood tiger moth (
