The “solidarity crime” in the Maritime Alps

Two species of pseudoscorpions new to science (Neobisium montisageli n. sp. and Roncus peissei n. sp.), collected in Southeastern France, are described, the diagnostic characteristics are illustrated, and their distribution is given. The possible establishment of two species groups of Roncus in Europe is discussed briefly in view of the importance of some of the diagnostic characteristics. .

Ammonite Zones

Abstract A restudy of the Cenomanian ammonites of the Nice area, southeast of the Maritime Alps (France), suggests that the conclusion of H. Parent (1945) that the fauna of the upper Cenomanian also occurs in the lower Cenomanian is erroneous. Actually the ammonite zones here conform with those of the rest of the world. Reexamination of Parent's specimens showed that they were too poorly preserved to be identified specifically or, at times, even generically. Subsequent revision of the Chateauneuf fauna revealed that it was entirely lower Cenomanian with the exception of Calycoceras boulei Coll. The locality north of Peille is chosen as the type locality for the Nice Cenomanian. The ammonite zones of the Iberian peninsula, the southeast Maritime Alps, and Madagascar are correlated in a table.

The Mediterranean

From about the fourth century b.c. Rome had a long-standing alliance with the Greek colony of Massilia (Marseilles) whose territory was constantly raided by southern Gallic tribes; these incursions called for military intervention from the Romans from the middle of the second century, culminating in a series of successful campaigns, the enlargement of Massilia's territory, the founding of the colony of Aquae Sextiae (Aix, 30 miles north of Marseilles), and the annexation of southern Gaul in 121 b.c. after the defeat of the Allobroges and Arverni. The province stretched from the Pyrenees up to Tolosa (Toulouse), then the frontier skirted the Cevennes to the Jura Mountains and the south-west corner of Lacus Lemannus (Lake Geneva); then it came in a south-south-easterly line to the Mediterranean coasts, by the Maritime Alps. It formed a very valuable corridor from Italy to Spain, and through it ran the Via Domitia beyond the Rhone; in 118 b.c. Narbo Martius (Narbonne) was founded, and so flourishing a Roman civilization grew up that Pliny later described it as ‘Italia verius quam provincia’.
