The sections East of the peak Golemiya vruh North of the village of Bounovo exhibit a deposition of the marine red beds of the Upper Triassic Komshtitsa Formation (Moesian Group) directly over the biodetritic limestones of the Ladinian Radomir Formation (Iskur Carbonate Group). The basal parts of the Komshtitsa Formation are proven with foraminifer fauna as Lower Carnian. Laterally the Lower Carnian red beds are replaced by the algal limestones of the Trun Formation (Iskur Carbonate Group). Farther North-West, in the Zemenska Mountain, the Trun Formation fills in the whole volume of the Carnian and the lower and middle parts of the Norian Stage, the Komshtitsa Formation being confined to the middle and upper parts of the Norian. These new data point at a diachronous evolution of the Late Triassic geodynamics and sedimentation, with local total lack of the upper carbonate platform and its lateral replacement by red bed sedimentation as early as in Early Carnian time.

A revision of ammonoids of the genus Yakutosirenites (Sirenitidae) from the Carnian deposits of Northeast Asia have been carried out. Based on the study of the morphogenesis of the most important structures of the shell, a division of the genus Yakutosirenites into two subgenus is proposed: Yakutosirenites with the type species Sirenites pentastichus Vozin, 1964 and Vozinites with the type species Sirenites armiger Vozin, 1965. A description of the genus and its subgenera and species is given. The significance of the species of these subgenera for the biostratigraphic subdivision and correlation of the Lower/Upper Carnian boundary interval is substantiated. The boreal-thethyan correlation of the Yakutosirenites pentastichus zone have been refined. For the first time, taking into account the data of the revision of the genus Yakutosirenites, the upper part of the pentastichus Zone is compared only to the Arctosirenites canadensis Beds of the Arctic Canada and to the lower Subzone of the Tropites welleri Zone of British Columbia, wich are an equivalent to the lower part of the Tropites subbullatus Zone of the Alpine standard.

AbstractFrom 1989 to 1994 a series of papers outlined evidence for a brief episode of climate change from arid to humid, and then back to arid, during the Carnian Stage of the late Triassic Epoch. This time of climate change was compared to marine and terrestrial biotic changes, mainly extinction and then radiation of flora and fauna. Subsequently termed, albeit incorrectly, the Carnian Pluvial Event (CPE) by successive authors, interest in this episode of climatic change has increased steadily, with new evidence being published as well as several challenges to the theory. The exact nature of this humid episode, whether reflecting widespread precipitation or more local effects, as well as its ultimate cause, remains equivocal. Bed-by-bed sampling of the Carnian in the Southern Alps (Dolomites) shows the episode began with a negative carbon isotope excursion that lasted for only part of one ammonoid zone (A. austriacum). However, that the Carnian Humid Episode represents a significantly longer period, both environmentally and biotically, is irrefutable. The evidence is strongest in the European, Middle Eastern, Himalayan, North American and Japanese successions, but not always so clear in South America, Antarctica and Australia. The eruption of the Wrangellia Large Igneous Province and global warming (causing increased evaporation in the Tethyan and Panthalassic oceans) are suggested as causes for the humid episode.

Full textAbstract:
AbstractThe Early to Late Triassic development of a carbonate ramp system in the subtropical belt of the NW Tethys was controlled by the interplay of several global and regional factors: geotectonic setting (slow continuous subsidence on a passive continental margin), antecedent topography (low-gradient relief inherited from preceding depositional regime), climate and oceanography (warm and dry climatic conditions, storm influence), relative sea-level changes (Olenekian to Anisian eustatic rise, middle Anisian to early Carnian sea-level fall), lack of frame-builders (favouring the maintenance of ramp morphology), and carbonate production (abundant formation of lime mud, non-skeletal grains and marine cements, development of diverse biota controlled by biological evolution and environmental conditions). Elevated palaeorelief affected the ramp initialization on a local scale, while autogenic processes largely controlled the formation of peritidal cyclicity during the early stage of ramp retrogradation. Probably fault-driven differential subsidence caused a local distal steepening of the ramp profile in middle–late Anisian time. The generally favourable conditions promoted long-term maintenance of homoclinal ramp morphology and accumulation of carbonate sediments having great maximum thickness (~500 m). Shutdown of the carbonate factory and demise of the ramp system in the early Carnian resulted from relative sea-level fall and subsequent emergence. After a period of subaerial exposure with minor karstification, the deposition of continental quartz arenites suggests the possible effect of the Carnian Pluvial Episode.

BSGF - Earth Sciences Bulletin 190 (2019): 9. http://dx.doi.org/10.1051/bsgf/2019009.
Full textAbstract:
Microbial-sponge reef mounds of the Carnian, Late Triassic, Maantang Formation crop out along the northwestern margin of the Sichuan Basin in South China. Samples from three mounds have been investigated and their ostracod assemblages are here described for the first time. Thirty-three species are present, distributed into 19 genera, including five newly described species: Carinobairdia cabralae n. sp., Hiatobairdia senegasi n. sp., Hiatobairdia zhengshuyingi n. sp., Hungarella gommerii n. sp, Pontocyprella goussardi n. sp. While most of the encountered genera are already known from the Carnian stage worldwide, the Maantang assemblages are precursors in providing the oldest occurrences of the family Schulerideidae, typical of the Middle and Late Jurassic of Europe, and of the genus Carinobairdia, which was until now restricted to the Norian-Rhaetian interval. These records demonstrate the underestimated importance of the easternmost Tethys in the early Mesozoic evolution of marine ostracods. Some important Jurassic European taxa might have originated on the eastern margin of the Tethys during the Carnian, migrated to the western Tethys later during the Late Triassic and diversified there up to the record known for the European Jurassic. Microbioerosion trace fossil analysis of associated brachiopod shells revealed Orthogonum giganteum as the sole identifiable ichnotaxon and represents the first record of this ichnospecies in Triassic strata. The complete absence of microborings produced by phototrophic trace makers points towards aphotic depths for the deposition of the Maantang Formation, providing independent evidence suggesting that typical shallow water ostracods (Carinobairdia, Schulerideidae) radiated in relatively deep settings.

Full textAbstract:
ABSTRACTThe Newark-APTS established a high-resolution framework for the Late Triassic and Early Jurassic. Palaeomagnetic polarity correlations to marine sections show that stage-level correlations of continental sequences were off by as much as 10 million years. New U–Pb ages show the new correlations and the Newark basin astrochronology to be accurate. Correlation of Newark-APTS to the Chinle Formation/Dockum Group, Glen Canyon Group, Fleming Fjord Formation and Ischigualasto Formation led to the following conclusions: (1) there are no unequivocal Carnian-age dinosaurs; (2) the Norian Age was characterised by a slowly increasing saurischian diversity but no unequivocal ornithischians; (3) there was profound Norian and Rhaetian continental provinciality; (4) the classic Chinle-, Germanic- and Los Colorados-type assemblages may have persisted to the close of the Rhaetian; (5) the distinct genus-level biotic transition traditionally correlated with the marine Carnian–Norian is in fact mid-Norian in age and within published error of the Manicouagan impact; (6) the end-Triassic marine and continental extinctions as seen in eastern North America were contemporaneous; and (7) compared to Triassic communities, Hettangian and Sinemurian age terrestrial communities were nearly globally homogenous and of low diversity. Consequently, the complex emerging picture of dinosaur diversification demands biostratigraphically-independent geochronologies in each of the faunally-important regions.

Full textAbstract:
During the Middle Triassic time two major transgressions (Anisisn and Ladianian in age) took place over the Tethys domain affecting the western border of the Iberian Plate. Classically three characteristic lithological units have been recognized in the Middle Triassic, traditionally named in Spain, Lower, Middle and Upper Muschelkalk. In order for comparison the same designations are kept in the present work. Lower Muschelkalk comprises the Albarracian Formation, and Upper Muschelkalk – the Tramacastilla and Royuela Formations. In this paper the attention is drawn to the main facies of these three formations and especially to the foraminifers found for the first time in their sediments. As a result of the analysis of the stratigraphical significance of the foraminiferal assemblages we refer the Albarracian Formation to the Pelsonian substage of the Anisian stage, and the Tramacastilla Formation to the Longobardian substage of the Ladianian stage. The deposits of the Royuela Formation contain Upper Ladinian - ?Carnian foraminiferal associations.

Full textAbstract:
Seventy-three species of stenolaemate bryozoans are documented worldwide from the Triassic. Stage-level diversity and paleogeographical analyses reveal that the recovery of bryozoans following the end-Permian mass extinction was delayed until the Middle Triassic. Early Triassic bryozoans faunas, dominated by members of the Order Trepostomida, were depauperate and geographically restricted. Bryozoan diversity increased during the Middle Triassic and diversity peaked in the Carnian (early Late Triassic). High extinction rates throughout the Late Triassic led to the extinction of all stenolaemate orders except the Cyclostomida by the end of the Triassic. Comparisons between global carbonate rock volume, outcrop surface area, and bryozoan diversity indicate that the documented diversity pattern for bryozoans may have been related, in part, to the availability of carbonate environments during the Triassic.

The Early Carnian (Upper Triassic) phaceloid coral originally described by Volz (1896) asHexastraea fritschi, type species ofQuenstedtiphylliaMelnikova, 1975, reproduced asexually by “Taschenknospung” (pocket-budding), a process documented herein for the first time. This type of budding is recognized only in the Amphiastraeidae, a family thus far recorded only from Jurassic-Cretaceous strata. Similar to amphiastraeids,Quenstedtiphyllia fritschi(Volz, 1896) has separate septal calcification centers and a mid-septal zone built of serially arranged trabeculae. The most important discriminating characters of the new amphiastraeid subfamily Quenstedtiphylliinae are one-zonalendotheca and radial symmetry of the corallite in the adult stage (in contrast to two-zonal and bilateral symmetry in the adult stage in Amphiastraeinae).Quenstedtiphyllia fritschishares several primitive skeletal characters (plesiomorphies) with representatives of Triassic Zardinophyllidae and, possibly, Paleozoic plerophylline rugosans: e.g., thick epithecal wall and strongly bilateral early blastogenetic stages with the earliest corallite having one axial initial septum. To interpret the phylogenetic status of amphiastraeid corals, we performed two analyses using plerophylline rugosans and the solitary scleractinianProtoheterastraea, respectively, as the outgroups. The resulting phylogenetic hypotheses support grouping the Zardinophyllidae with the Amphiastraeidae in the clade Pachythecaliina (synapomorphy: presence of pachytheca). Taschenknospung is considered an autapomorphy for the Amphiastraeidae. This study is the first attempt to analyze the relationships of the Triassic corals cladistically.

Full textAbstract:
ABSTRACTHerbivorous and omnivorous dinosaurs were rare during the Carnian stage of the Late Triassic. By contrast, the succeeding Norian stage witnessed the rapid diversification of sauropodomorphs and the rise of the clade to ecological dominance. Ornithischians, by contrast, remained relatively rare components of dinosaur assemblages until much later in the Mesozoic. The causes underlying the differential success of ornithischians and sauropodomorphs remain unclear, but might be related to trophic specialisation. Sauropodomorphs replaced an established herbivore guild consisting of rhynchosaurs, aetosaurs and basal synapsids, but this faunal turnover appears to have been opportunistic and cannot be easily attributed to either competitive interactions or responses to floral change. Consideration of diversity patterns and relative abundance suggests that the ability to eat plants might have been a major factor promoting sauropodomorph success, but that it was less important in the early evolution of Ornithischia. On the basis of current evidence it is difficult to determine the diet of the ancestral dinosaur and scenarios in which omnivory or carnivory represent the basal condition appear equally likely.

Dinosaurs were enormously successful animals. They inhabited all seven continents, including polar regions during the Mesozoic. Their temporal range, as currently understood, extends from the Carnian stage of the Late Triassic beginning 228 Ma, to the Maastrichtian stage of the Late Cretaceous, ending 65 Ma. With a temporal span of 163 million years, dinosaurs cannot be judged as failures by puny naked bipeds who have been here for two million years or less and who threaten not only their own existence but that of much of the biosphere. The fossil record of dinosaurs is a complex document that cannot merely be read at face value but which must be carefully evaluated with respect to its inherent biases. There is much we wish to ask about dinosaurs that can only be answered with a mature reliable record. The object of this essay is to discuss some of the factors that impact both on dinosaur diversity itself, and on our understanding of that diversity. While fossils have an objective existence in the rocks, our understanding of their record is the result of a very human process of scientific discovery, subject to the contingencies and biases of history (Dodson, and Dawson, 1991).

We describe three scleractinian corals and one species of hydrozoan from the New Pass Range, central Nevada, which together constitute the oldest Triassic cnidarian assemblage from North America. They occur in carbonate rocks tentatively correlated with the Augusta Mountain Formation, Star Peak Group. At generic and higher levels, these cnidarians seem representative of early Mesozoic Tethyan faunas and carbonate lithofacies, but they indicate some endemism. Although the original aragonitic skeletons and microstructure are destroyed by recrystallization, the corals still yield important details allowing their correct taxonomic assignment. They contain the minitrabecular cerioid coral,Ceriostella variabilisnew genus and species, the thick-trabecular, thamnasteroid coralMesomorpha newpassensisnew species, and an undeterminable cuifastreid coral tentatively assigned toCuifastraea.The discovery ofMesomorphamarks the first occurrence of this genus outside the Jurassic and Cretaceous seas. Also discovered is a remarkably corallike hydrozoan,Cassianastraea reussi(Laube), already known from the Carnian stage of the western Tethys. This is the first occurrence of this species outside the western Tethys.

Full textAbstract:
Triassic rock units of northern Chile (28-29° S) record the transition, both in time and space, between two major orogenies that affected the southwestern margin of South America, the Gondwanian and Andean orogenies. The geodynamic configuration of the margin during this transition is still a matter of debate, particularly whether subduction was interrupted or continued under different parameters in between the orogenies. In order to evaluate these hypotheses by understanding the paleogeographic evolution of the margin, this work synthesizes recent stratigraphical, structural and geochronological data from northern Chile (28-29° S), along with detrital zircon analysis and detritus characterization of the two main siliciclastic Triassic basins present in the area. A detailed study of the evolution of the San Félix and the Canto del Agua basins, their source areas, and exhumation processes of the margin recognizes two stages of intra-arc/forearc basins system development separated by a Carnian unconformity. The first stage (Lopingian-uppermost Middle Triassic) develops an eastern intra-arc basin, which is represented by the volcaniclastic rocks included in the Guanaco Sonso Formation and the roots of the volcanic arc represented by Chollay Plutonic Complex, bounded to the east by a Pennsylvanian-Cisuralian basement block. The forearc basin for this stage is constituted by two graben depocenter, separated by a topographic high, of marine to transitional depositional environment and proximal sediment sources. The eastern graben is filled by conglomerates and turbiditic rocks grouped in Members M1 to M4 of the San Félix Formation, and the western graben, by sedimentary and volcanic rocks of the lower section of the Canto del Agua Formation. The second stage (Norian-Rhaetian) involves an eastern intra-arc basin, represented by the volcanic rocks of the La Totora Formation that seals the exhumed roots of the magmatic arc developed in the previous stage, and a marine to transitional forearc basin to the west, represented by the sedimentary rocks of M5 member of the San Félix Formation and the upper section of the Canto del Agua Formation. These two successions show basal fluvial conglomerates unconformably overlying Anisian prodelta deposits of the first stage, recording a major base level drop of the forearc basin.

The Upper Triassic (Carnian-Norian) Filicopsida fossils present in the marine and continental outcrops, informally nominated as Santa Juana formation in the Biobío Region of Chile (37ºS/73ºS), are described. The taphoflora includes ten species, out of which eight are first registers for this area: Gleichenites quilacoyensis Leppe and Moisan sp. nov., Asterotheca rigbyana rigbyana Herbst, Rienitsia colliveri Herbst, Dictyophyllum fuenzalidai Herbst, Dictyophyllum (Thaumatopteris) rothi Frenguelli, Chansitheca argentina Herbst, Cladophlebis kurtzi Frenguelli and Todites baldoni Herbst ; three are new records for the Chilean Upper Triassic: Rienitsia colliveri Herbst, Gleichenites quilacoyensis Leppe and Moisan sp. nov., and Chansitheca argentina Herbst. The fern species found represents an 18% of the total specific diversity of plants in the Upper Triassic rocks from Biobío and help to understand the complicate floristic evolution of the communities in Gondwana. The Triassic rocks from Biobío are situated in the context of the Southwestern Extratropical Gondwana. The assemblage was developed in a continental environment with strong marine influence, under a rainy seasonal weather and displays age affinities with the argentinian Florian stage (Norian-Rhaetian). On an evolutionary point of view, the paleoflora was involved into the long Triassic/Jurassic mass extinction process, that means the end of the 'Dicroidium Flora' and the start of several elements that will dominate during the Jurassic.

Abstract. The study area is part of the Anyui subterrane of the Chukotka microplate, a key element in the evolution of the Amerasia Basin, located in Western Chukotka, Northeast Russia. The subterrane contains variably deformed, folded and cleaved rhythmic Triassic terrigenous deposits which represent the youngest stage of widespread marine deposition which form three different complexes: Lower-Middle Triassic, Upper Triassic (Carnian) and Upper Triassic (Norian). All of the complexes are represented by rhythmic interbeds of sandstone, siltstone and mudstone. Macrofaunas are not numerous, and in some cases deposits are dated by analogy to, or by their relationship with, other units dated with macrofaunas. The deposits are composed of pelagic sediments, low-density flows, high-density flows, and shelf facies associations suggesting that sedimentation was controlled by deltaic progradation on a continental shelf and subsequent submarine fan sedimentation at the base of the continental slope. Petrographic study of the mineral composition indicates that the sandstones are lithic arenites. Although the Triassic sandstones appear similar in outcrop and by classification, the constituent rock fragments are of diverse lithologies, and change in composition from lower grade metamorphic rocks in the Lower-Middle Triassic to higher grade metamorphic rocks in the Upper Triassic. This change suggests that the Triassic deposits represent an unroofing sequence as the source of the clastic material came from more deeply buried rocks with time.

Small coprolite-bearing borings occur in the stem of the filicalean tree fern Itopsidema vancleaveii Daugherty from the Chinle Formation of Late Triassic Age (Carnian Stage) in Petrified Forest National Park, Arizona. These borings are restricted to parenchyma within the leaf petioles and among the adventitious roots of the root mantle. Although they are not lined by wound tissue, some of the borings in the leaf petioles contain small discontinuous masses of wound-tissue at a few places along some of the walls, indicating that the plant was alive when it was attacked. Coprolites within the borings generally are small (mostly about 40–50 μm in diameter and 85–100 μm in length) and oval in longitudinal section and round to weakly hexagonal in transverse section; they consist of very small particles of unidentifiable plant matter. Although the weakly hexagonal coprolites are similar to those produced by termites but they are an order of magnitude smaller. Furthermore, the borings are much smaller than those produced by known extant termites. It is likely that oribatid mites produced the coprolite-bearing borings and coprolites. This occurrence is significant because it bridges the Late Permian to Early Jurassic gap in the geologic record of endophagous mites and also contributes new data on arthropod activity during the Late Triassic in southwestern North America.

Full textAbstract:
This paper presents a combined study based on seismic interpretation, sequence stratigraphy, and the evaluation of subsidence that aims to characterize the structure and development of the Essaouira Basin in Morocco. Located in the coastal Meseta adjoining the continental margin, this basin records an initial Carnian-Hettangian deformation phase during rifting in the central part of the North Atlantic region. The geometry of the basin as a function of time shows a succession of half-grabens and horsts that developed westwards from reactivated Hercynian structures. The postrift stage is characterized by an aggrading sedimentary sequence, as shown by concordant seismic sequences stacking over the onshore part of the basin. The Upper Cretaceous coincides with a sequence showing a transition towards a prograding regime that leads to the topography of the present-day margin. Using the high-resolution analysis provided by sequence stratigraphy, it is possible to recognize fine-scale stratigraphic variations in the sedimentary succession. The well-to-well correlation of sedimentary cycles forms a dataset for evaluating subsidence. Residual subsidence curves reveal a differential behaviour between the present onshore and offshore areas. Although the computed subsidence rates are low across the onshore zone, curves for the western offshore part of the basin follow theoretical lithospheric cooling curves that are compatible with a stretch factor ( beta ) of nearly 1.4. Steep temporary gradients on the computed curves may be correlated with tectonic phases documented across the North Atlantic region that exerted a tight control on the development of the Essaouira Basin from Triassic rifting until the uplift of the Atlas Mountains during the Cenozoic.

Terceira Island hosts a Carnival that enjoys unique features in the landscape of European folklore. It involves a major share of the resident population, it takes place on stages scattered all over the island, and it involves a blend of dancing, music, and acting. This paper presents the preliminary results of a collaborative project between native and foreign scholars, with the activist goal of providing Terceira’s Carnival with visibility in order to ensure its preservation. Documentary evidence and fieldwork activities undertaken in 2020 provide grounds to interpret Terceira’s Carnival as a multi-modal endeavour that nurtures social cohesion through mythopoesis, subversion of hegemonic roles, and the distribution of leadership to folk elites. As such, we argue that Terceira’s Carnival does not fit traditional scholarly views on European Carnivals. Additionally, we show that, thanks to its ability to trigger identity-making processes, this Carnival is a case for cultural sustainability: in fact, it ensures the preservation of communal bonds in face of changing global and regional social landscapes.

Full textAbstract:
The process of forming a brand image to the public takes time. The process of increasing brand awareness can be done by optimizing school promotion media. MI Baiturahhim Semarang is a service partner who needs assistance in the process of optimizing the design and types of promotional media by considering the limitations of the partners. Twibbon can be one of the alternative promotional media that can be used in an easy way and through sharing media such as whatsapp status. Assistance is carried out using participatory communication methods with the initial stages of heteroglasia, dialogic communication, polyphony and the application of the carnival side. Observing the needs of partners in the early stages shows the heteroglasia side of the participants, namely the diversity of teacher origins and knowledge related to media and promotional design. Then in its implementation there is a dialogical communication with both the principal and the teacher. In the implementation stage, knowledge information about media and design is provided, providing hands-on practice with participants related to design and twibbon media so that they are included in the polyphony stage or understanding regarding the given topic. A serious but relaxed mentoring situation in delivering mentoring materials is a form of carnival stage in participatory communication. The results obtained, partners feel the benefits of knowledge about the use of various promotional media, recognize twibbon as a promotional media and design with photoshop software to be uploaded to twibbon media and distributed to whatsapp status.

Full textAbstract:
After surviving the notorious Permian-Triassic boundary-events, the conodont-bearing animals underwent a number of crisis at the end of Induan, Olenekian, Ladinian, Early Carnian and during Middle Norian to Rhaetian times, before their final extinction at the end of the Triassic. The causes responsible for speciation, radiation and extinction seem possibly related to global sea-level changes, although the Norian-Rhaetian speciations and final extinction of conodonts may have been controlled by competitional pressure at the trophic and reproductive level, possibly by newly appeared taxa, e.g. bonefishes.Families, defined herein by their multielement-apparatus, are three in number (4 genera, 1 being new) in Induan, two (8 genera, 6 new) in Olenekian, one (2 subfamilies, 5 genera, 3 new) in Anisian, Ladinian and Early Carnian before the Carnian crisis, and one (1 subfamily, 2 genera, 1 new genus) in Late Carnian, Norian and Early Rhaetian, until extinction of the last conodont taxon at the end of the Rhaetian.Palaeogeographic distribution of Induan Anchignathodus, Induan - Olenekian Ellisonia and Neospathodus, Induan - Early Rhaetian Neogondolella and Olenekian Plativillosus are boreal to equatorial. Olenekian Furnishius, Parachirognathus, Hadrodontina and Pachycladina are found in cratonic cordilleran and Werfen facies. Latest Olenekian, respectively Anisian to Early Carnian Gladi- and Paragondolella define low-latitude mesopelagic Tethys. Ladinian Sephardiella extends from shallow Tethys to Boreal realms, whereas Neogondolella and Pseudofurnishius dwelled respectively in restricted Anisian to Early Ladinian Germanic and semi-open Ladinian Sephardic provinces. The specialization of post-Induan taxa into environmental niches became first reduced from the generic to specific level and disappeared entirely in Late Norian and Rhaetian. Latest Carnian - Latest Rhaetian Epigondolella species extended from low (Tethyan) to high (Boreal) latitudes, in pelagic and cratonic facies. Norian species of Paragondolella had a pan-thallassic, including Notal, distribution.Triassic P-elements always show similar patterns of evolution of the platform and basal cavity as appearance of denticles on platform -edges, development of a free blade and splitting of basal cavity, causing broadening of platform. These characters are lost or abandoned in highly critical periods. Instead, ancestral morphs with reduced platforms, often without apparatus, or early ontogenetic stages, re-appear, from which evolution restarts. Norian-Rhaetian taxa, however, seem to play that scenario backwards, a process reminding of neoteny or paedomorphism. This process is accompanied by the irreversible reduction in the number of species of Late Rhaetian conodonts.

Malang Flower Carnaval (MFC) which has worldwide, the results of the creation of these activities have been staged in various countries in the world. MFC has successfully entered the COE (Calender of Event) of the Indonesian Ministry of Tourism 3 times. The existence of this event supports and strengthens the predicate of Malang City as a Creative City in Indonesia. This success is interesting to do a study of how the fashion creativity that has been created from the MFC. This study uses a qualitative approach specifically Roland Barthes's fashion function theory and Edmund Burke Feldman's function theory of art. The results of the study showed that the creativity of the carnival dress appeared in the visualization of the shape of hair such as temples, gold ornaments, ornamental elements, and body gestures that symbolized the beauty of local dance. In addition, the carnival costumes can be a representation of local culture as an idea of creation. Implementation of a fashion carnival can encourage community creativity which ultimately increases public welfare.

Full textAbstract:
The Upper Triassic of the Williston Lake area of northeastern British Columbia is represented by a nearly continuous series of fossil-rich sediments that were deposited in the Western Canadian Sedimentary Basin in an offshore mid-paleolatitude setting on the western margin of cratonic Pangea. The fossils in this report come primarily from the upper Carnian–upper Norian Pardonet Formation, which has been the subject of numerous paleontologic studies on ammonoids and conodonts, yet has received little attention with regard to its bivalve fauna. Fossil bivalves belonging to the thin-shelled bivalve genera Halobia, Eomonotis, and Monotis dominate the benthic macrofauna and occur within unique shell accumulations that are interpreted to represent oxygen-controlled monospecific paleocommumities that have undergone little post-mortem transportation. Systematic analyses of more than 1,000 individual bivalve specimens resulted in the identification of 25 species-rank taxa, a majority of which belong to the pterioid genus Halobia and the pectinoid genera Eomonotis and Monotis. Of these, four new species are recognized, including 1) upper Carnian Halobia tozeri n. sp. characterized by a unique triangular outline; 2) lowermost Norian Halobia selwyni n. sp. closely related to H. beyrichi and first appearing with H. austriaca which is proposed as a potential datum for the Carnian–Norian boundary; 3) Norian Meleagrinella mclearni n. sp., a new name for previously identified species; and 4) upper Norian Otaparia norica n. sp. which has a delicate thin shell, unique outline, and fine ornament. A revised and refined biochronology of Upper Triassic Bivalvia (chiefly Halobiidae and Monotidae) integrated with conodont and ammonoid zones and standard Triassic stages is presented for the Upper Triassic of the Williston Lake area and permits enhanced correlation to coeval faunas elsewhere in the North American Cordillera, and to the Boreal, Panthalassan and Tethyan faunal realms.

Full textAbstract:
This article focuses on the feminist mobilization that has characterized Cádiz Carnival since 2011, leading to the elimination of the Ninfas y Diosas (Nymphs and Goddesses) custom, a variant of the Reina de las Fiestas (Queen of Traditional Fiestas) ceremony introduced under Francisco Franco’s dictatorship (1939–75). By calling into question the representation of women in Carnival celebrations, female festive organizations have challenged the old, male-dominated festival traditions and transformed Cádiz Carnival. Their activism has carried over into everyday life, as female Carnival groups have created their own community and translated the artistic manifestations of their desire for equality into public policy. Using oral testimonies and archival material gathered during ethnographic fieldwork in the city, I trace the history of the reina and ninfas customs and analyze a variety of material related to their birth, evolution, and recent discontinuation. The ultimate purpose of this article is to map the tensions embedded in both the festival and contemporary Spanish society and to show how the Carnival stage can become a space where embodied feminist counter-hegemony is performed, thus contributing to the slow democratization of Spanish society.

Full textAbstract:
We examined the contents of nutritional importance, i.e., amino acids, fatty acids and minerals of different developmental stages of drones of two honey bee subspecies, namely Apis mellifera carnica and A. m. mellifera. The results revealed that, in general, individual amino acid amounts and therefore the total protein increased along with the developmental stages of the drones. No statistically significant differences were found between the same developmental stages of the two subspecies. The reverse, i.e., a decrease with developmental stage occurred in relation to the fatty acid composition. Most of the minerals were higher at advanced developmental stages. Overall, the high protein content (31.4–43.4%), small amount of fat (9.5–11.5%) and abundance of minerals such asiron and zinc, make drones a suitable nutritional resource. Even though nutrient content, especially protein, was higher in the pupae than the prepupae, we propose prepupae also as a commercial product based on their higher biomass production. Provided standard production protocols maintaining hygiene and safety will be adhered to, we propose that drone honey bees can be utilized as human food or animal feed.

Full textAbstract:
Abstract Varroa destructor is a parasitic mite that attacks the honey bee, and previous studies have suggested that parasitosis caused by this mite is accompanied by immunosuppresion in the host. In this study, the effect of mite infestation on the expression of the lysozyme-1 (lys-1) gene and lysozyme activity in Apis mellifera carnica was determined. The experiment was carried out on the five developmental stages of honey bee workers and drones. Developmental and gender-related differences in gene expression and lysozyme activity were observed in a Varroa destructor-infested brood. The relative expression of the lys-1 gene increased in a infested worker brood and decreased in a drone brood except for P3 pupae. In the final stage of development, the lys-1 gene expression was significantly lower in infested newly emerged workers and drones. Changes in the relative expression of the lys-1 gene in infested individuals was poorly manifested at the level of enzyme activity, whereas at the two final stages of development (P5 and I) there was a positive correlation between relative lys-1 expression and lysozyme activity in infested bees of both genders (r=0.988, r=0.999, respectively). The results of this study indicate that V. destructor influences the lysozyme-linked immune response in bees.

The article discusses the ways of interaction of the French court ballet, the Italian carnival, Italian dance and the English court Masque. The features of royal entertainment in France, known since the reign of Henry II, are revealed. The origin of the French court ballet was determined, its socio-political functions aimed at the hierarchical structuring of the royal court, strengthening the authority of the monarch, the unification of the aristocratic nobility and the removal of hotbeds of tension in society were revealed, which were characteristic features for the functional features of the English court Masque. The stages of the origin, formation, heyday, and decline of the French court ballet are described. A parallel is drawn between the burlesque roles of the king in the court ballet and the birth of an antimasque, the founder of which was was B. Johnson, a poet and playwright. It was established that the Italian style coexisted in England with other European styles during the period of the Stuart reign, and Italian dances, costumes, librettos and stage designs were used in the performances of English Masques.

Full textAbstract:
The junction of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries in Europe sharpened the clash of artistic novelties in the Western and Slavonic worlds, caused by developed Symbolism and Expressionism. As an output of the former reappeared in the "Jahrhundertwende" the transformed characters of the Commedia dell'arte, flourished in art, literature and music in Italy France, Austria and Russia. Exponents of Italian Renaissance theatre Stravinsky's Petrushka (1911) and Sch?nberg's Pierrot lunaire (1912) turned soon to be main works of the Russian and Austrian expressionistic music style, inaugurated by Strauss's Salome, which won opera stages from the 1905 on. Influences of the latter were widespread and unexpected, reaching later the "remote" areas of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, as well as the Balkans (in 1907 the Canadian dancer Maud Allan performed The Vision of Salome in Belgrade - music Marcel Remy - making her debut in Vienna 1903). Compositions of Strauss and Sch?nberg (Erwartung included) reflected also the strong cult of death present in Vienna's Finde-si?cle Symbolism concerning among other works plays by Wedekind and Schnitzler (Veil of Pierrette was staged successfully in Russia, too), with prototypes in Schumann's Carnival and Masquerade by Lermontov (both works written in 1834!). It was not by chance that Schumann's piano suite became one of the first ballets of Diaghilev's Saisons Russes (1910) and Masquerade, performed with the incidental music by Alexander Glazunov, the last pre-revolutionary piece of Vsevolod Meyerhold (1917).

The cytokinin concentration in the xylem sap of Protea L. cv. Carnival (Protea compacta R. Br. × Protea neriifolia R. Br.) shoots was determined at regular intervals from 11 weeks before until 10 weeks after spring budbreak. Cytokinin levels were high during the early phases of spring shoot growth. Benzyladenine (BA) at 50, 250, or 500 mg·L−1 was applied to entire shoots on 22 Feb., 12 Apr., and 22 May 2001 (fall in the southern hemisphere) or only to terminal buds on 22 May 2001 at 500 mg·L−1. Most of the terminal buds sprouted and initiated an inflorescence when BA application at 500 mg·L−1 in May was directed only to terminal buds, whereas lower flowering percentages (0%–35%) were achieved when the entire shoot was treated. After whole shoots were treated with BA in Apr. 2001, between 5% and 45% floral reversion was observed. High flowering percentages of 87% to 93% were recorded when BA was applied at 500 mg·L−1 to the terminal bud in the dormant state or up to the stage when sprouting buds reached the green point development stage. Later applications were less effective, inducing 42% to 43% inflorescence initiation. The flowering time of BA-induced inflorescences was advanced by more than 2 months compared with flowers that initiated naturally on the spring flush.

Full textAbstract:
This article examines Alan Ayckbourn’s two linked plays, House & Garden, in the context of an entire career exploring the limits and boundaries of theatrical conventions. As the driving force and artistic director of the Stephen Joseph Theatre, a complex which houses two theatres – a proscenium stage and a theatre-in-the-round – the playwright/director has a flexible, state-of-the-art laboratory in which to experiment with theatrical elements which have always fascinated him. In House & Garden, Ayckbourn stretches stage boundaries in unprecedented ways by writing two plays to be performed simultaneously in two adjacent auditoria – a comedy of manners for the proscenium and a carnivalesque farce for the round. Stephanie Tucker analyzes how this unprecedented dramatic diptych exploits the possibilities of theatrical space, on and offstage, whilst appropriating elements from traditions as various as Greek satyr plays and nineteenth-century drama, and from venues as disparate as the carnival square and the drawing room. This experiment, she argues, forces audiences to re-examine preconceived notions concerning theatre’s relationship to the ‘real’ world, a theme which runs through Ayckbourn’s opus. Stephanie Tucker, who teaches at California State University, Sacramento, has published articles on various aspects of contemporary British and American theatre and is presently engaged upon a book-length study of Ayckbourn’s drama and stagecraft.

Full textAbstract:
The aim of the article is to compare two old-Polish dramas of the so-called “popular scene”, and thus point to the directions of evolution of carnival representations in the former Polish Nobles’ Republic. The first work comes from the mid-sixteenth century and is characterised by a simple story. The second , written in the first half of the seventeenth century, has a vast plot and much more extensive stage directions. By contrasting both the story and the type of heroes and the way of constructing a verbal joke by anonymous authors, the author comes to the conclusion that although both performances meet the convention of old-Polish “tragicomedy”, one can see not only similarities, but also significant differences. In Tragedia żebracza of 1552, the story is based on one plot only (the conflict between beggars and a merchant), while in the text written in the seventeenth century there are many more plots. In both texts, cheerful scenes are intertwined with sad ones (according to the then convention of “tragicomedy”), and the finales of the stories in both works are happy.
The comedy is achieved, both in the sixteenth- and seventeenth- century drama, mainly through contrast and surprise (e.g. contrasting characters with a different mentality, ways of thinking and speaking; the contrast between stereotypical images and authentic images of people, inadequacy of declarations in relation to real people, behaviour of some stage characters incompatible with the viewer’s expectations, an example of which is a lively dance of an allegedly sick and lame beggar, etc.) In both texts we observe a type of humour that fits into the old-Polish concept of so-called “satirical comedy”. This means that some characters are consciously and deliberately degraded by ridiculing and highlighting their negative traits. Thus, comic elements do not serve only a ludic function and are not merely “attached” to the story itself to achieve humorous effects, as Julian Lewański, a researcher of old-Polish drama, wrote many years ago. This is because comedy also serves for didactic purposes.
More recognizable as a “carnival” drama is the seventeenth-century work. It contains, unlike the sixteenth-century work, a lot of allusions to the carnival time and post-New Year’s party (organised after t New Year’s Day). In the extended stage directions of the Baroque text, the author signalled much more stage means to build comic situations than in the sixteenth-century drama, for example, the author’s information on the facial expressions or, close to pantomime, the actors’ clownish movements are significant. This is related to the appearance, the action and the characteristics of the mask-characters. The masquerade is still very poorly outlined in Renaissance tragicomedy (removing rags and putting on beautiful robes by the beggars can be treated as the masquerade). The Baroque text is dominated by stage characters wearing masks. In the seventeenth-century work we can also observe a desire to diversify the action, increasing the number of comedy heroes and verbal jokes. In these jokes there is a play on words, funny associations, paronymity and ambivalence of meanings. In the Baroque drama the number of means and ways of expressing comedy has also increased, e.g. we observe language parodies absent from the sixteenth-century text, unusual concepts and arguments of stage characters based on absurdity. Moreover, the anonymous seventeenth-century author used literary irony in his text (in the “sophist’s” utterance) as a separate means of provoking comedy.
The contrast of those two “carnival” shows originating from two old-Polish literary periods — the Renaissance and the Baroque, is a testimony to the development and transformation of the “tragicomedy” genre.

The aim – to assess the efficacy and safety of combination treatment using the infusion form of L-carnitine (Metacartin) in patients with chronic renal failure. The study included 32 patients with CKD stage III (14 men, 18 women) aged 21 to 62 years with a glomerular filtration rate of 59–30 ml/(min · 1.73 m2) after receiving their informed consent. The quality of life of patients with CKD stage III was significantly reduced, especially due to the indicators of the physical component of health: general health and body pain. From indicators of the psychological component of health in patients with CKD stage III, the lowest level is set for vital activity. Inclusion to standard treatment of L-carnitine has led to a significant decrease in serum creatinine levels and increased GFR and improvement of GH and mental health in patients with CKD stage III.

This article analyses the Stockholm Pride parade as an effective contemporary political stage, built on laughter and festivity. Taking its political point of departure in what is seen as being highly private and intimate, sexuality and the sexed body, the parade turns upside down one of the most central ideas of modernity: the dichotomy of public and private. Combining the theory of carnival laughter with queer theory, the article illustrates the way in which humour and politics work together in this contemporary blend of politics and popular culture.

Full textAbstract:
The article examines the state and problems of nowadays transformation of the pop genres, the connection between the new forms with classical pop genres of the past. The problems of rap on the modern Russian stage are analyzed. Rap music itself is perceived as a borderline phenomenon between the established culture of local social groups (subcultures) and as a recipient of the carnival tradition, farcical culture, rooted in early folk forms of theatricality. Modern pop culture perceives part of the artistic tradition born at the Soviet stage. However, not all of its positive elements and achievements of the national stage, dating back to the high satire of N.V. Gogol, M. E. Saltykov-Shchedrin, M.A. Bulgakov, M.M. Zoshchenko are still demanded by the mass culture today. The main role in maintaining aesthetic balance play traditional cultural values, framing subcultural phenomena. These values are potentially able to direct all the subcultures into the creative channel of authentic art.

Full textAbstract:
This essay proposes a performative model of opera seria founded in ritual to argue that opera seria is better understood as a variety of spectacle than as drama in the modern sense. In this view, opera seria relies for its effectiveness on compositional, dramaturgical, and institutional forms that counteract representational congruities in plots, stage designs, and singers' genders. As both genre and institution, opera seria is rendered unintelligible in models of stageworks upheld by music critics like Tovey and Kerman or anthropologists of theater like Victor Turner. Extending instead the work of anthropologist Stanley Tambiah, the performative model of opera seria presented here sees the ritual mechanics of opera seria as both highly fixed and highly unfixed, ranging from the interactions of singers and audiences to the structuring and delivery of arias and norms of acting. At the base of this ritual process was the archetypal seria story, which delivered an unquestionable set of absolutist propositions that distanced viewers from states of continuous absorption. Attention to the stage was instead relegated mainly to the intersubjective play between viewer and singer in aria ritornello forms. Such interplay and many other seria practices were embedded in the larger rituals of Carnival, masking, and other forms of festivity. By replacing closed with open forms and raising the status of opera seria's authors above that of singers and audiences, efforts at reform attempted to eradicate the ritual and festive dimensions of opera seria.

The article gives signs of postmodern. It is stated that the postmodern is an anti-fundamentalist paradigm, which proclaims that there is nothing predetermined, true without a doubt, once and for all that is given. Mosaic, eclectic, kaleidoscopic, fragmentary, combining the incompatible, where everything is a game, are inherent in him as a type of consciousness. The game has a policy associated with the carnival, in politics, as in the carnival, there is a lot of mummery. Not a single politician is free from travesty, role-playing game. Myths, legends, images, ideal political biographies, the creation and support of images, the right political move is a political routine, which is manifested in the actions of Ukrainian politicians, for whom politics is a guarantee for business. Ukrainian politics is not a decision of public, but personal affairs, from which the whole country suffers. And here on the stage of this acting, which is called Ukrainian politics, in the presidential race comes the real showman. If politicians play a show, then why should a showman not play a politician. This is where the illusion of the political life of Ukrainian society manifests itself.

Full textAbstract:
Immature field corn (Zea mays L.) grown for pre-lenten carnival festivities in Trinidad and Tobago can be a profitable cash crop. Hybrid and local unimproved open-pollinated corn were grown with two levels of weed control and fertilizer application late in the rainy season at two locations each on Trinidad and on Tobago. The Trinidad locations were situated on more productive agricultural land than those on Tobago. The hybrid `Pioneer 3098' yielded more edible corn than the local variety at all locations and at all treatment levels. Manual weed removal at the four- to five-leaf stage was sufficient to allow corn to out-compete the weed canopy, and an additional field operation would not be justifiable. On Tobago, the application of fertilizer just before tasselling, in addition to an earlier application of urea, increased the number and yield of edible ears. Few boiling-quality, marketable ears were produced on Tobago. On Trinidad, the additional fertilizer did not alter yield. For commercial carnival-season production of immature field corn on productive soils in Trinidad, the purchase of imported hybrid seed is economically justifiable, but high inputs into weed control and fertility management may not be needed.

Music festivals consist of a complex of interactions and social and cultural experiences. This paper analyzes music festivals in SE Europe in their function as a planetary prouction, combining regional cross-cultural perspectives and local politics. At the beginning of the 1990s music events in SE Europe (concerts, festivals, cultural happenings) were either a part of political conflict, antagonisms and economic crises, or they were included in the music world through the cultural contacts of global achievements – the music net and industry. Music festivals become the arena and scene of a contradictory reality in these places, being made up of individual, group interests, needs, establishment strategy and politics. To illustrate this phenomenon the paper presents the biggest festivals and spectacles in Serbia and SE Europe: EXIT festival (Novi Sad) attracted thousands of techno and rock lovers with the participation of many famous bands; and the folk trumpet playing festival (Guča), which each summer for several decades has been attracting thousands of lovers of ethno sound to a fair-carnival atmosphere. This ethnological research stresses complex property divisions – lifestyle, music genres, political strategies, scene movements and economic interests.
