A New Species

A new species, Pholis clemensi, referred to the family Pholidae, is named and described from 12 specimens taken in southern British Columbia waters and the Strait of Juan de Fuca. Pholis clemensi is compared with other members of the genus, and a key is given to the North American species.

Rugose Corals

Wrangellia was one of the first described and probably the most widely known of the North American Cordilleran terranes. On the basis of Triassic stratigraphy (Jones et al., 1977) and paleomagnetism (Hillhouse, 1977), the name Wrangellia was proposed for large areas of outcrop in Alaska, British Columbia, and Oregon (Fig. 1).

A morphological and cytological study on blackflies of the Queen Charlotte Islands, British Columbia, revealed a total of 16 species in three genera: Prosimulium (6 species), Simulium (9 species), and Stegopterna (1 species). Included is a description of Simulium (Hellichiella) nebulosum n. sp. Notes on distribution and bionomics are provided for each species. AH species collected on the Queen Charlotte Islands are also found on the North American mainland. We conclude that the origin of the present-day simuliid fauna is best explained by post-Wisconsinan dispersal from mainland populations. This conclusion does not support the hypothesis of a continuously mild, Wisconsinan refugium on the Queen Charlotte Islands.

North American Craton

Three tectonostratigraphic successions are established from remapping of the area near Barkerville and Cariboo River. The first, of Late Proterozoic to Cambrian sediments, was deposited on the shallow to moderately deep platformal shelf west of and derived from the exposed North American craton. The second is an unconformably overlying Ordovician to Permian sequence of sedimentary and volcanic rocks representing a basinal environment with periodic highs. These packages of sediments were deposited on the North American craton and its western transitional extensions. The third succession, composed of oceanic chert and basalt of the Permo-Pennsylvanian Antler Formation, was thrust eastward over the other two during the early Mesozoic. The three successions were folded, faulted, and metamorphosed during the mid-Mesozoic Columbian Orogeny. The Devono-Mississippian Cariboo Orogeny, which was thought to have affected all of the first sequence and part of the second, could not be documented in its type locality. The geology of the Barkerville – Cariboo River area has many similarities with that of Selwyn Basin and Cassiar platform of northern British Columbia and Yukon.
