The Suborder Clupeoidei Bleeker, 1859 comprises mostly marine fishes, which form large schools feeding on plankton. The fossil record of the suborder in the Late Paleogene reveals that clupeoids were abundant in the Western, Central, as well as Eastern Paratethys. Clupeoid descriptions from the Polish Outer Carpathians (SE Poland, Central Paratethys) remain incomplete due to usage of ‘collective species’, taxonomical inaccuracies, and lack of clear links between extinct and extant representatives. In this paper we present a new clupeoid, † Beksinskiella gen. nov., from the Oligocene of the Outer Carpathians, Poland. The new genus encompasses the nominal species † Maicopiella longimana (Heckel, 1850). † Beksinskiella gen. nov. has a unique combination of characters (skull roof with frontoparietal striae; smooth opercle; 6–7 branchiostegal rays; 42–48 vertebrae; dorsal and anal fins with 21–23 rays; the last two rays of the anal fin being elongated, and the presence of a complete series of abdominal scutes with the postpelvic ones poorly developed), supporting recognition of a new genus of the Suborder Clupeoidei. Similarities and differences between fossil and extant genera of Cluepoidei are discussed to shed light on their relationship.

Palynological investigation of the Vrabchov dol locality (Western Bulgaria) which recently yielded fragmentary dinosaur bones attributed to the clade Titanosauria, reveals well-preserved sporomorph assemblages dominated by angiosperm pollen from the Normapolles group, spores and rare gymnosperms. The age assessment of the studied sequence is based on the diagnostic Normapolles species, such as Oculopollis orbicularis Goczan, 1964, Oculopollis zaklinskaiae Goczan, 1964, Krutzschipollis spatiosus Goczan in Goczan et al., 1967 and Krutzschipollis crassus (Goczan, 1964) Goczan in Goczan et al., 1967. The concurrent presence of these pollen species suggests a late Santonian–early Campanian age for the succession. The sporomorph association is encountered in a palynofacies dominated by continental elements, including translucent phytoclasts (tissues, wood remains and plant cuticles). The sedimentary succession shows no evidence of marine elements and a very low proportion of AOM that attests to deposition within a lagoonal to foreshore marine environment, with high continental input and short transportation. The vegetation in the studied area was primarily composed of a range of Normapolles-producing angiosperms and secondarily of pteridophyte spore-producing plants. Gymnosperms were rare. Such a vegetation pattern reflects a warm, seasonally dry climate during the late Santonian–earliest Campanian in the studied area. The dinosaurs inhabited a wet lowland area, probably rich in herbaceous plants.
对Vrabchov dol地区(保加利亚西部)的孢粉学调查显示，最近发现了属于泰坦龙进化支的恐龙骨骼碎片，揭示了保存完好的孢子形态组合，主要是来自Normapolles群的被子植物花粉，孢子和罕见的裸子植物。所研究序列的年龄评估是基于Normapolles的诊断种，如Oculopollis orbicularis Goczan, 1964, Oculopollis zaklinskaiae Goczan, 1964, Krutzschipollis spatiosus Goczan in Goczan et al.， 1967和Krutzschipollis crassus (Goczan, 1964) Goczan in Goczan et al.， 1967。这些花粉种类的同时存在表明，这一演替发生在圣东尼亚晚期-坎帕尼亚早期。孢子形态组合是在以大陆元素为主的孢粉相中遇到的，包括半透明的植物碎屑(组织、木材残骸和植物角质层)。沉积演替中没有海洋元素的证据，AOM的比例很低，证明沉积在泻湖到前滨海洋环境中，大陆输入大，运输短。研究区植被以产normapolols的被子植物为主，其次为产孢子的蕨类植物。裸子植物很罕见。这种植被格局反映了研究区圣东晚期-坎帕尼亚早期温暖、季节性干燥的气候。恐龙生活在潮湿的低地地区，那里可能有丰富的草本植物。

: Yatcyshyn, A. and Gębica, P. 2023. Development of the alluvial fan of the Stryi River and its Late Glacial incision in the foreland of the Eastern Carpathians (Western Ukraine). Acta Geologica Polonica , 73 (3), 453–465. Warszawa. The article presents the stages of development of the alluvial fan of the Stryi River (tributary of the Dniester River), which is the largest alluvial cone in the foreland of the Eastern Carpathians. The alluvial fan has a diverse morphology and complex structure, and its formation is the result of the accumulation and erosion activity of several rivers. In order to reconstruct the evolution of the alluvial fan, geological cross-sections of the Stryi, Svicha and Dniester river valleys were made on the basis of archival drillings and field research. The stratigra - phy of the alluvial fills is based mainly on morphological (morphostratigraphic) criteria and the correlation of terrace levels with those of adjacent areas. Fluvial sediments from the Late Glacial and Holocene were dated by the radiocarbon method, which allowed the determination of the age of fan dissection. The main factor controlling the course of accumulation and erosion on the alluvial fan was climate change. The accumulation of alluvial covers was preceded by phases of erosion, which generally fell at the end of the glacial periods (late glacial) and the beginning of the interglacials. Differences in the depth of dissection of the strath and the thickness of the accumulated alluvial sediments in the northern and southern parts of the fan may be the result of different tectonic movements and/or the transport capacity and size of river discharges. In the Late Glacial (Alleröd-Younger Dryas) and the Early Holocene the alluvial fan was dissected to a depth of 10–15 m due to the erosion of the Stryi and Dniester rivers.

: Kupryjanowicz, M., Fiłoc, M., Żuk-Kempa, E. and Żarski, M. 2023. Are several profiles better than one? Multi-profile palynological study of the Eemian lacustrine sediments at the Wola Starogrodzka site (Garwolin Plain, Central Poland). Acta Geologica Polonica , 73 (3), 411–431. Warszawa. Pollen analysis was performed on 14 profiles of fossil biogenic sediments from different parts of the vast depression near the Wola Starogrodzka village (Central Poland). The results allowed the determination of the time of their accumulation for the period from the end of the Odra Glaciation (Warta Stage, Saalian, MIS-6), through the Eemian Interglacial (MIS-5e), to the first interstadial of the Early Vistulian (Brørup, MIS-5c). In many studied profiles, we noted the incompleteness in the pollen record of the Eemian vegetation succession – hiatuses occur usually in the hornbeam (E5) and/or spruce phase (E6). Moreover, the thickness of the same pollen zone and the development of its palynological record are strongly differentiated between individual profiles, e.g. the hornbeam zone (E5) is contained in an exceptionally thick sediment layer (3.7 m) in the PWS1-19 profile, and the oak zone (E3) in the WH-123 and PWS2-19 profiles (1.0 and 1.2 m, respectively), while in other profiles they are represented only by single pollen spectra. If we only had a single profile with a hiatus and/or a poorly developed pollen record, it would be impossible to reconstruct a complete interglacial succession of vegetation. However, having several such imperfect profiles which complemented each other enabled us to do it.
