The newest results of sedimentological and paleontological investigations of part of the Urgonian Limestones studied in the surrounding of Boljevac on the SE slopes of the Kucaj Mts. (Carpatho-Balkanides, eastern Serbia) are presented. On two localities, near the village Faca Vajali, four types of microfacies and one subtype within the bioclastic limestones were separated. The characteristics of the depositional environments of the investigated Urgonian Limestones were studied and are discussed. At the base of the established rich microassociations of foraminifera and algae, the vertical distribution of foraminiferal species was precisely defined which enabled the determination the the age of this part of the Urgonian Limestones as Late Barremian-Early Aptian.

The article deals with the phonetic features of the northern Ukrainian subdialect of the village of Dubovichi, Krolevets District, Sumy Region. Before that, Serhiy Ivanovich Doroshenko described the dialectal features of Buryn and Putivl districts in a decent manner.The Ukrainian population from the territories of modern Sumy region and some neighboring ones actively participated in the settling of the present Belgorod and Voronezh regions of the Russian Federation, which is confirmed by both actual speaking characteristics and anthroponymy, the facts of which were also recorded by the author. The author tried to make a more complete, more objective picture of the natural speech of Sumy region, in particular the phonetic (vocal) of his subsystem, and to correlate some dialects of this territory with that or another language (northern or southeast). The author focuses on the peculiarities of the vocal subsystem in detail such as akanye, vowels of heterogeneous creation, positional phonemes, and comments on facts and compares them with the corresponding phenomena of neighboring subdialects described by the famous dialectologist S. I. Doroshenko. A. A. Sagarovsky records signs of the development of the subsystem consist-ing in leveling, losing the «exotic» northern dialect traits and considers the subdialect as a transition to the south-eastern (Slobodan) type.

<p>The South Adriatic is one of the dense water formation site in the Mediterranean Sea. The variations of its thermohaline properties are relevant not only from an oceanographic and climatic point of view but also for the local impact on the vertical distribution of the biogeochemical parameters.</p><p>The South Adriatic Pit has been extensively sampled during the last forty years by traditional shipboard techniques. Float and glider measurements became part of the investigation only in the last ten years, providing a more detailed and more uniform spatio-temporal dataset. From the analysis, evidences of important changes of the South Adriatic Pit salinity vertical distribution emerge in the last 5 years. In the past, the Levantine Intermediate Water (LIW) entered the South Adriatic at a depth between 100 and 300 m, highlighted by a maximum in the salinity. The recent findings suggest that the LIW is no longer characterized by the highest salinity along the vertical profiles, which is present instead in shallower subsurface layers. In addition, in most of the seasons a thick low salinity layer is evident in the top 50-100 m. Among those changes, some peculiar haline characteristics occur in 2012 and 2017; they will be analyzed in concert with auxiliary data and model outputs.</p>

The Arabs in Central Asia occupied in the past, as is well known, considerable territory, especially in the lower parts of the basins of the Zarafshān and Qashqa-daryā rivers, and also in Khojend and the south-eastern regions of Tajikistan.In the course of centuries the majority of the Central Asian Arabs have lost their language and only small groups of them continue to speak Arabic up to the present time in the villages of Jōgarḹ, Čardaḹ (Ġijduwān district) and ‘Arab-Xōna (Wobkend district) of the Bukhārā region and in the village of Jeinau in the Qashqa-daryā region.

The article reports on the new location of a rare, narrow-localized miocene-pliocene relic Tulipa mongolicaY. Z. Zhao, in the Trans-Baikal Territory along the south-eastern sandy-rocky slope of the lake Bayn-Tsagan terrace (Ononsky district), as part of the karaganovo-chiovo-vostretsovaya steppe. In the Trans-Baikal Territory, the tulip grows onthe northern border of its range: in the vicinity of the village Budulan, near the town Malyi Bator (Aginsky district) in thebushyed cold-wormwood-kovylnaya steppe; along the northern coast of the lake Zun-Torey, in the village Kulusutai, nearthe town Gydyrgun (Ononsky district) in the karayganovo-raznotravno-kovylnaya steppe. This cenopopulation is locatedon the territory of the protected zone of the Daursky Nature Reserve.

THE oil-springs of Jaba are situated at the foot of the steep lime stone hills 1½ or 2 miles distant from the village of Jaba and 7 miles from the railway station of Massan. On the topographical map (Sheet 38, p. 9, scale 1 inch = 1 mile) the two main oil-springs are marked. The north-western spring is called Chota Kutta by the natives, the south-eastern Burra Kutta, from the brooks where they are found.
