Ciletuh, southwest Java has been well known as one of the places in Java where pre-Tertiary basement rocks are exposed (Verbeek and Fennema, 1896; Duyfjes, 1940; van Bemmelen, 1949; Sukamto, 1975). In plate tectonic point of view, Ciletuh has been known as place outcropping melange complex related to pre-Tertiary oceanic plate subduction (Thayyib et al., 1977). Ciletuh subduction regionally has been linked to the Cretaceous subduction zones of Luk Ulo/Karang Sambung (Central Java) and Meratus Mountains (South Kalimantan) (Hutchison, 1973; Asikin 1974; Hamilton, 1979). Ciletuh subduction however, has not been dated using metamorphic rocks formed in its subduction zone. Its link to Luk Ulo and Meratus subduction zone only based on the presence of melange, which also lacks of data Meanwhile, subduction zones of Luk Ulo and Meratus have been dated and analysed. We herewith present the results of new field studies and various analyses carried out in the last five years of the Ciletuh subduction complex. The indication of Cretaceous subduction has not found from the date measurement, Ciletuh shows Eocene related subduction. Most of the ophiolites were island-arc tholeiitic or island-arc basalt formed in supra-subduction zone. The overlying olistostrome deposits were younger than previously considered and lasted until early/middle Miocene. Some of the basaltic pillowed lava is considered as part of the ophiolite, while the ones at Gunung Badak is more likely a part of the early Miocene Jampang volcanism. Link of Ciletuh to Early Cretaceous subduction of Luk Ulo is not supported by geochronological data. The new knowledge of Ciletuh subduction implies the pre-Tertiary and Paleogene geology of Java, and petroleum prospectivities of the Paleogene objectives of southern West Java. New problems arise and need more field data and analyses to find out the answers.

AbstractThe plutonic crustal sequence exposed northeast of Sabzevar is part of the ophiolitic belt of Sabzevar that occurs along the northern margin of the Central Iran micro-continent. The sequence includes olivine and pyroxene gabbro with cumulate characteristics, isotropic gabbro, foliated gabbro and a diabase sheeted dyke complex cut by wehrlite and olivine websterite intrusions, and pegmatite gabbro and plagiogranite as small intrusions and dykes. The sequence is comparable to gabbros in known ophiolite complexes. Microscopic studies show an abundance of the mesocumulate and heteradcumulate textures that represent open system magma chambers, which are common in supra-subduction zones. The olivine → plagioclase → clinopyroxene → ± orthopyroxene → amphibole trend of mineralization in the gabbros, similar to mid-ocean ridge basalt (MORB), and olivine → clinopyroxene → ± orthopyroxene → plagioclase → amphibole, similar to arc rocks, indicate the diversity in the formation of these rocks, and represent petrographic evidence of their formation in a supra-subduction zone. The rocks have calc-alkaline to tholeiitic affinities, and niobium depletion in the spider diagrams of diabase that matches the patterns of island arc magma. These patterns, and the light rare earth element enrichment of the diabase and plagiogranite, suggest the effect and introduction of the fluids, originating from the subducting slab, beneath the mantle wedge. The low titanium compositions, matching those of arc diabase and plagiogranite, plot in the island arc to MORB tectonomagmatic fields, and suggest formation of the Sabzevar ophiolitic plutonic crustal sequence in a supra-subduction zone during Late Cretaceous time.

Abstract The Azuero Peninsula, located in SW Panama, is a region characterized by a long-lived intra-oceanic subduction zone. Volcanism began in Late Cretaceous time, as the result of subduction of the Farallon plate beneath the Caribbean plate. Usually, ancient volcanic arcs related to intra-oceanic subduction zones are not preserved, because they are in areas with difficult access or covered by modern volcanic arc material. However, on the Azuero peninsula, a complete section of the volcanic arc together with arc basement rocks provides the opportunity to study the sedimentation and volcanism in the initial stages of volcanic arc development. The lithostratigraphic unit which records fore-arc evolution is the “Río Quema” Formation (RQF), a volcanic apron composed of volcanic and volcaniclastic sedimentary rocks interbedded with hemipelagic limestones, submarine dacite lava domes, and intruded by basaltic-andesitic dikes. The “Río Quema” Formation, interpreted as a fore-arc basin infilling sequence, lies discordantly on top of arc basement rocks. The exceptionally well exposed arc basement, fore-arc basin, volcanic arc rocks and arc-related intrusive rocks provide an unusual opportunity to study the relationship between volcanism, sedimentation and magmatism during the arc development, with the objective to reconstruct its evolution. The “Río Quema” Formation can be divided into three groups: 1) proximal apron, a sequence dominated by lava flows, interbedded with breccias, mass flows and channel fill, all intruded by basaltic dikes. The rocks represent the nearest materials to the volcanic source, reflecting a coarse sediment supply. This depositional environment is similar to gravel-rich fan deltas and submarine ramps; 2) medial apron, characterized by a volcanosedimentary succession dominated by andesitic lava flows, polymictic volcanic conglomerates and crystal-rich sandstones with minor pelagic sediments and turbidites. These rocks were deposited from high-density turbidity currents and debris flows, directly derived from erupted material and gravitational collapse of an unstable volcanic edifice or volcaniclastic apron; 3) distal apron, a thick succession of sandy to muddy volcaniclastic rocks, interbedded with pelagic limestones and minor andesitic lavas, intruded by dacite domes and by basaltic to andesitic dikes. Bedforms and fossils suggest a quiet, relatively deep-water environment characterized by settling of clay and silt (claystone, siltstone) and by dilute turbidity currents of reworked volcaniclastic detritus. The timing of the initial stages of the volcanic arc has been constrained through a biostratigraphic study, using planktonic foraminifera and radiolarian species. The fossil assemblage indicates that the age of the “Río Quema” Formation ranges from Late Campanian to Maastrichtian, providing a good constraint for the development of the volcanic arc and volcaniclastic apron, during the initial stages of an intra-oceanic subduction zone.

Central America has recently been an important focus area for investigations into the complex processes occurring in subduction zones.  Here we review some of the new findings concerning subduction input, magma production and evolution, and resultant volcanic output.  In the Nicaraguan portion of the subduction zone, subduction input is unusually wet, likely caused by extensive serpentinization of the mantle portion of the incoming plate associated with bending-related faulting seaward of the Middle America trench. The atypical influx of water into the Nicaraguan section of the subduction zone ultimately leads to a regional maximum in the degree of mantle melting.  In central Costa Rica, subduction input is also unusual in that it includes oceanic crust flavored by the Galapagos plume.  Both of these exotic subduction inputs are recognizable in the compositions of magmas erupted along the volcanic front.  In addition, Nicaraguan magmas bear a strong chemical imprint from subducting hemipelagic sediments.  The high-field-strength-element depletions of magmas from El Salvador through Costa Rica are related to local variations in the depth to the subducting Cocos plate, and, therefore, to segmentation of the volcanic front.  Minor phases, probably amphibole or rutile, control these variable depletions. Silicic magmas erupted along the volcanic front exhibit the same along-arc geochemical variations as their mafic brethren.  This and their mantle-like radiogenic isotopic compositions suggest the production of juvenile continental crust all along the Central American subduction zone.  Punctuated times of enhanced magmatic input from the mantle may aid in crustal development.SOMMAIREL’Amérique centrale a récemment été le lieu de recherches sur les processus complexes se produisant dans les zones de subduction.  Ici nous passons en revue certaines découvertes sur nature des intrants de subduction, la production et l’évolution des magmas, ainsi que les extrants volcaniques résultants.  Dans le segment nicaraguayen de la zone de subduction, les intrants de subduction sont exceptionnellement humides, probablement à cause de la serpentinisation généralisée de la portion mantélique de la plaque en subduction, fissurée par flexure dans partie marine de la fosse océanique de l’Amérique centrale.  L'afflux atypique en eau dans le segment nicaraguayen de la zone de subduction induit ultimement un maximum régional de la proportion de fusion du manteau.  Dans la portion centrale du Costa Rica l’intrant de subduction est lui aussi atypique en ce qu’il comprend une croûte océanique teintée par le panache des Galápagos.  Ces deux intrants de subduction atypiques sont répercutés dans la composition des magmas éjectés le long du front volcanique.  En outre, les magmas nicaraguayens affichent une forte empreinte chimique héritée des sédiments hémipélagiques en subduction.  Les appauvrissements en éléments à fortes liaisons atomiques des magmas, du El Salvador jusqu’au Costa Rica, sont liés à des variations localisées de la profondeur de la plaque en subduction de Cocos, et donc, à la segmentation du front volcanique.  Des phases mineures, probablement amphibole et rutile, déterminent ces appauvrissements variables.  Les magmas siliceux éjectés le long du même front volcanique montrent les mêmes variations géochimiques le long de l’arc que leur contrepartie mafique.  De plus, les compositions radiogéniques de leurs contreparties mantéliques évoquent la production d’une croûte continentale juvénile le long de la zone de subduction de l’Amérique centrale.  Des épisodes d’accroissements ponctuels des intrants magmatiques du manteau peuvent contribuer au développement d’une croûte.

According to the Flora of Java, there is only one species of Evolvulus in Java, namely Evolvulus alsinoides. Since then, a second species was reported in 2017 from Universitas Indonesia, Depok, West Java, as an alien naturalized species. Some recent field studies have been conducted to provide updated taxonomic information of the genus on this island. The field observations were carried out in Banten, Jakarta, West Java, Jogjakarta, and East Java from March to December 2019. The herbarium studies were also conducted in Herbarium Bogoriense, Herbarium of Bogor Botanic Gardens, Herbarium Bandungense, and Herbarium of the Department of Biology, Universitas Indonesia. Our study reveals one newly recorded species of Evolvulus in Java already grown in cultivation, namely E. glomeratus Nees & Mart. subsp. grandiflorus (Parodi) Ooststr. Besides that, Evolvulus nummularius is now also reported to occur in other sites of West Java and extended to Central Java. An updated key to Evolvulus in Java, descriptions to both species, photographs, and brief discussions are provided.

AbstractA review is given of the studies of Ghillean Prance and associates on the Chrysobalanaceae over the past sixty years. This has focussed on defining the generic boundaries in the family and on monographic work with a worldwide approach to this pantropical family. The importance of field studies for work on monographs and Floras is emphasized. Monographs are still the basis for much work on conservation, ecology and economic botany and are needed as a foundation for molecular studies. The importance of being open to experimenting with new techniques and as a result being willing to change the taxonomy in accordance with new findings is demonstrated and emphasized. The twelve genera of the Chrysobalanaceae at the beginning of this career-long study have now increased to twenty-eight in order to present a much better monophyletic and evolutionary arrangement based on recent molecular evidence. In particular it was necessary to divide and rearrange the originally large genera Parinari and Licania into a number of smaller segregate genera. All known species were included in a worldwide monograph published in 2003. A brief review of the economic use for the family is given.

Abstract. The exhumation of high and ultra-high pressure rocks is ubiquitous in Phanerozoic orogens created during continental collisions, and is common in many ocean-ocean and ocean-continent subduction zone environments. Three different tectonic environments have previously been reported, which exhume deeply buried material by different mechanisms and at different rates. However it is becoming increasingly clear that no single mechanism dominates in any particular tectonic environment, and the mechanism may change in time and space within the same subduction zone. In order for buoyant continental crust to subduct, it must remain attached to a stronger and denser substrate, but in order to exhume, it must detach (and therefore at least locally weaken) and be initially buoyant. Denser oceanic crust subducts more readily than more buoyant continental crust but exhumation must be assisted by entrainment within more buoyant and weak material such as serpentinite or driven by the exhumation of structurally lower continental crustal material. Weakening mechanisms responsible for the detachment of crust at depth include strain, hydration, melting, grain size reduction and the development of foliation. These may act locally or may act on the bulk of the subducted material. Metamorphic reactions, metastability and the composition of the subducted crust all affect buoyancy and overall strength. Subduction zones change in style both in time and space, and exhumation mechanisms change to reflect the tectonic style and overall force regime within the subduction zone. Exhumation events may be transient and occur only once in a particular subduction zone or orogen, or may be more continuous or occur multiple times.
