Bird Colonies

The results of the sea bird colonies census in the eastern part on the coast of the Tauy Bay, Zavyalov Island, and the Koni Peninsula are presented and discussed. Recent census allows to assess changes in nesting colonies of seabirds that occurred over the past 10-15 years. Total number of nesting seabirds is estimated as more than 92 thousand individuals. Gradual decrease in the number of seabirds colonies was observed on the west coast of the Koni peninsula. The great bulk of seabirds nesting in here is concentrated around Cape Bligan - 11,1 thousand individuals and on Cape Skalisty - 7.5 thousand individuals. Recovery of the colony of murres was recorded. On Cape Skalisty, after almost 30-year absence, and the number of murres quickly grows here. The number of breeding seabirds on Umara Island has remained stable for the last 10 years and is estimated as 60.2 thousand individuals. The total number of breeding seabirds along the surveyed part of the continental coast has decreased from 41.7 thousand individuals to 30.2 thousand in 2009-2019.

AbstractOn the west coast of North America and in Australia, there have been parallel cases of sequential invasion and replacement of the shoreline plant American sea-rocket by European sea-rocket. A similar pattern has also occurred in New Zealand. For 30 to 40 yr, from its first recording in 1921, American sea-rocket spread throughout the eastern coastlines of the North and South Islands of New Zealand. European sea-rocket has so far been collected only on the North Island. From its first collection in 1937, European sea-rocket spread to the northern extremity of the island by 1973, and by 2010, it had reached the southernmost limit. In the region where both species have occurred in the past, American sea-rocket is now rarely found. This appears to be another example of congeneric species displacement.

The U.S. healthcare system has been subject to unprecedented scrutiny over the past three years; one of the results of this scrutiny has been recognition of the serious problems that exist in both healthcare delivery and reimbursement mechanisms. While the verbal debate in Washington has essentially ceased, within the healthcare community a historic shift has taken place in the way healthcare reimbursement is structured: increasingly, traditional fee-for-service reimbursement methods are being replaced with capitation reimbursement methods. While this phenomenon originated on the West Coast, it has spread to all geographic sectors of the United States in varying degrees and can be expected to dominate the funding patterns of healthcare over the next decade.

The validity of Pseudocuma gilsoni B|cescu 1950 has been questioned in the past. The recent discovery of material in Irish waters, and in the North Sea, confirms the presence of the species in the North East Atlantic and provides the opportunity to present a full redescription. A new genus, Monopseudocuma, is erected to accommodate the species. A neotype is designated from the West coast of Ireland.

A taxonomic account is given of the monotypic genus Maurocenia Mill. Maurocenia frangula Mill, has a restricted range and is endemic to the Cape Peninsula and the West Coast National Park. Western Cape. Maurocenia frangularia (L.)Mill., the species name and author citation widely used in the past, is incorrect. It is characterized by. among others, pendulous ovules and gynodioecy, rare states in the Celastraceae. Maurocenia is apparently most closely related to the southern African genus Lauridia Eckl. Zeyh.

A New Species

Fossil woods from the El Cien Formation have yielded important information on the taxonomic composition and climate of a flora established in the west coast of Mexico during the Miocene. This report of a new genus and species, Ruprechtioxylon multiseptatus Cevallos-Ferriz, Martínez Cabrera et Calvillo-Canadell, is based on woods with the following combination of features: vessels solitary and in radial multiples of 2–3; vestured, alternate, oval to polygonal intervessel pits; vessel-ray and vessel-parenchyma pits similar in size to intervessel pits, but with slightly reduced to reduced borders; 2–5 septa per fibre; scanty paratracheal, unilateral and vasicentric axial parenchyma; uniseriate homocellular rays, occasionally locally biseriate; crystals in fibres. The presence of Ruprechtioxylon (Polygonaceae) in the El Cien Formation confirms that plants of lineages growing today under contrasting climates lived together in the past. This record adds a new species to the growing list of Neotropical taxa that were present in Mexico prior to the great Plio-Pleistocene exchange of biota in the Americas.

In a communication made to this Society on the 6th February, 1871, I noted the capture of a sperm-whale at Oban in May, 1829, and I collected from various sources records of the stranding of seven additional specimens on the Scottish coasts.Since that communication was published, a large sperm-whale has come ashore on the west coast of the Isle of Skye, some particulars concerning which I propose to relate in this communication.Tourists in Skye, during the past autumn, who visited Loch Corruisk by boat from Torrin, as they sailed up Loch Scavaig, became conscious, by another sense than that of sight, that a large animal in a state of putrefaction was in their immediate vicinity.

Although the mineral gyrolite has long been known to occur in the British Isles, namely in the basalt lavas of Skye, Mull, and the Treshnish Islands, &c., off the west coast of Scotland, and has more recently been described from the cliffs between Ardtornish Bay and the fault of Dearg Allt in Argyllshire on the mainland, no instance of its occurrence in the lavas of the north of Ireland has hitherto been recorded.The examination, however, of a large number of specimens collected both for me and by myself during the past year and a half has shown that the mineral, though occurring in small quantity relative to the other zeolites with which it is associated, is fairly widely distributed throughout the harder lavas in the neighbourhood of Belfast.
