Information about a new locality of Melilotoides schischkinii (Vassilcz.) Soják (Fabaceae), a rare endemic to Amur Region, is provided in the article. The habitat of the plant and the status of its population in the region are described. The new locality is remote from the known range of the species, which significantly expands its distribution.

AbstractThe genus Neomonoceratina, which dominated the ostracod assemblage in the uppermost part of the Akasaki Formation (Miroku Group) of the Kyushu Island, Japan, is associated with the benthic foraminifer Ammonia cf. beccarii, mollusca Terebralia? sp. and Anomia sp., and the oogonium of Charophyceae, indicating a marine-to-brackish estuarine environment involving inflowing freshwater. This is the first record of Eocene coastal-estuarine ostracods from the eastern margin of the Eurasian continent and demonstrates that different pre-Neogene coastal-estuarine ostracod assemblages flourished in this region. The assemblages comprised five ostracod species (including one novel species) assigned to the genera Neomonoceratina, Paijeiborchella, Propontocypris and Parakrithella. These species exhibited genus-level links with the Eocene borehole cores along the continental shelf of the East China Sea and other areas of Kyushu. Fossil data of characteristic Eocene coastal-estuarine genera collected worldwide indicate that different characteristic genera inhabited each region. For example, Neomonoceratina originated on the Indian subcontinent by the Early Paleocene period at the latest, along with the northern drift of the Indian subcontinent. These species subsequently diversified west and east with the equatorial current and counter-current via the Tethys and reached the eastern margin of the Eurasian continent among the various eastwards-migrating species, where one genus ultimately adapted to the coastal-estuarine environment. Notably, the coastal-estuarine ostracod assemblage of the eastern margin of the Eurasian continent differs completely from that of the Tethys during the Eocene period. Our results suggest that coastal-estuarine ostracod assemblages are a powerful tool for palaeogeographic reconstruction.

Abstract Eotrigonobalanus furcinervis was recorded for the first time from the Oligocene sediments of the Thrace Basin. The species was discovered in the upper part of the Danişmen Formation from the Marmaraereglisi Area, southeastern the Basin. Eotrigonobalanus furcinervis appeared in large numbers early during the early Paleocene–late Oligocene localities in Europe; especially in Thrace of Greece, Bulgaria, Germany, Czech Republic, Hungary and Romania. Therefore, this data is valuable as the first recording for Thrace Basin.

First record of the genusBronnothyris(Brachiopoda: Megathyrididae) from the Oligocene of the Mainz Basin (Germany)The genusBronnothyris, with the type speciesTerebratula bronniiRoemer, 1841, was erected for thoseArgyrothecaspecies that have septal flanges extended ventrally from the dorsal valve. Four other Late Cretaceous and one Early Paleocene species were attributed to this genus (i.e.Argyrotheca coniunctaSteinich, 1965,A. lacunosaSteinich, 1965,A. obstinataSteinich, 1965,A. stevensisNielsen, 1928 andA. rugicostaZelinskaya, 1975). After examination of Oligocene material from Waldböckelheim, Mainz Basin, Germany we transfer the speciesArgiope subradiataSandberger, 1862 into the genusBronnothyris. This new combination extends the stratigraphic range ofBronnothyrisinto the Oligocene.

A Helorid wasp, Helorus ruficornis Förster, 1856, is reported for the first time on Tahiti (Society Islands), which is also the first record of both Proctotrupoidea and family Heloridae in French Polynesia. The potential hosts of Helorus ruficornis in French Polynesia are discussed.

Extensive survey of mantids in the northeastern Uttar Pradesh was conducted. Two mantid species were recorded for the first time from the target area, viz.: Pyrgomantis pallida, 1917 and Bactromantis mexicana.
