Clastic strata preserved on Sidney Island, Barnes Island, and adjacent islands of the southernmost Gulf Islands of British Columbia and the northern San Juan Islands of Washington State are assigned to new stratigraphic units: the Sidney Island Formation and the Barnes Island Formation. The Sidney Island Formation consists of basal conglomerate and sandstone that grades upward through planar-stratified sandstone into hummocky cross-stratified sandstone and siltstone, all of which are deposited in relatively shallow-marine environments. The Barnes Island Formation, in contrast, consists of deep-marine conglomerate, sandstone, and mudstone that was deposited in a submarine-fan setting. Mollusk fossils from the Sidney Island Formation are of Early to Middle Turonian age, whereas ammonites and foraminifers from the Barnes Island Formation indicate a Late Turonian age. The Sidney Island Formation thus records initial marine transgression and inundation of basement rocks, followed by basin deepening that is transitional to the deep-marine submarine-fan deposits of the Barnes Island Formation. Sidney Island Formation strata have been considered previously as derived from uplift along the nearby San Juan thrust system in mid-Cretaceous time. However, the shallow-marine strata are internally well organized, and the facies succession is persistent across the formation's outcrop area. In addition, the formation lacks the distinctive detrital metamorphic mineral assemblages that are characteristic of older rocks of the San Juan Islands. These observations suggest that strata of the Sidney Island Formation did not accumulate immediately adjacent to active thrusting but rather in a more distal setting relative to the thrust system.

El objetivo fue estudiar la variabilidad genética de características morfológicas de maíces nativos en la Península de Yucatán (PY), México. Se utilizaron trece accesiones de maíz nativo reconocidas con el nombre de Naál Xóy, Xnúc Naál Blanco, Gallito Amarillo, Dzit Bacal, Mejeén Naál, Rosa San Juan, Cháck-Chóp, Teél Cháck, Sáck Teél, San Pableño, Ejú-Criollo Morado, Xmején Naál Tsitbacal y Clavo Chiapaneco. Los materiales se establecieron en Junio de 2017 y 2018, en Poxyaxum, Campeche, México, (19° 41´58.4´´ N, 90° 21´03.6´´ W y 30 msnm) bajo un diseño de bloques completos al azar con tres repeticiones. Los resultados revelaron diferencias (P£0.05) en las variables morfológicas evaluadas: número de días a floración masculina (FM) y femenina (FF) presento una inestabilidad de 12 días a FM y FF, con Naál Xóy y Ejú-Criollo Morado, y 15 días a madurez fisiológica con Clavo Chiapaneco. Una diferenciación de 98 y 126 cm en altura de mazorca y planta con Eju-Criollo Morado; 6 y 1.1 cm en longitud y diámetro de mazorca con Xnúc Naál Blanco y Cháck-Chóp, y Gallito Amarillo. Una variación de 4 hileras con Teél Cháck y 17 granos por hilera con San Pableño; 11 y 74 gr en peso de 100 granos (Xmején Naál Tsitbacal, Rosa San Juan y San Pableño) y granos por mazorca (Naál Xóy); y una diferencia mayor en rendimiento con Naál Xóy y Dzit Bacal de 3105 kg.ha-1.
