The findings of preserved soft body parts including pedicle in the linguloid brachiopods are extremely rare in the fossil record of which the early Cambrian Chengjiang (southern China) and Burgess Shale (British Columbia) faunas are the most important. However, these characteristic Cambrian soft−bodied faunas largely disappeared from the fossil re− cord well before the end of the Cambrian. Here we...
Presence of four owl species was confirmed in the area of Forest Experimental Station of WULS−SGGW in Rogów (central Poland) at the beginning of the 2000s. These were tawny owl, long−eared owl, little owl and barn owl. In the second half of the XX century migratory short−eared owls had also been recorded. Density of tawny owl territories per total area was 2.6/10 km2. For long−eared owl it was lower...
The paper presents an analysis of abundance of the millipedes (Diplopoda) in the Białowieża Forest (eastern Poland) regarding habitat moisture and fertility. Mean individual biomass depends mostly on habitat fertility achieving higher values on eutrophic and moist sites. PCA and RDA confirmed observed pattern of relationship between millipedes abundance and site conditions.
This paper presents information on the finding of a south-west European spider species Cetonana laticeps (Canestrini) in Poland. On the basis of the collected specimen a description and pictures illustrating the diagnostic characters of the female C. Laticeps were made.
Fossil remains of the extinct boine snake Bavarioboa, thus far known exclusively from several localities of western and central Europe, are reported for the first time outside Europe. The new fossil record is from the Mendikdere Formation in easternmost Turkey, dated Late Oligocene to Early Miocene. The finding provides strong evidence of links connecting ophidian faunas of Europe and southwestern...
