Structural Framework

The Rosebel gold district belongs to the Paleoproterozoic Trans-Amazonian belt associated with sub-meridian crustal shortening. Here, we present new structural observations (cleavage, stretching lineations, veins, fault slip data, aeromagnetic maps). Regional cleavages are steeply dipping and bear steeply plunging stretching lineations. Finite strains are of flattening type. Fault slip data reveal a complex deformation history. The overall strain pattern of the reflects vertical motions, a feature consistent with pop-down tectonics involving vertical stretch and burial of supracrustal deposits during horizontal shortening of a hot and weak continental lithosphere.

A recent study on the mosses of Meghalaya has revealed the occurrence of 6 taxa of the genus Entodon viz., E. concinnus (De Not.) Par. ssp. caliginosus (Mitt.) Mizushima, E. rubicundus (Mitt.) Jaeg., E. luridus (Griff.) Jaeg., E. plicatus C. Muell., E. scariosus Ren. & Card. and E. pulchellus (Griff.) Jaeg., out of which E. concinnus (De Not.) Par. ssp. caliginosus (Mitt.) Mizushima is a new addition to eastern Himalaya and E. scariosus is a new record to Meghalaya. Present paper provides the current status and morpho-taxonomic details of above mentioned species of Entodon in Meghalaya.
