IONEL TABACARU, ANDREI GIURGINCA
Article keywords: In memoriam, Eugen Şerban

Article: As part of his activity at the Speleological Institute, Eugen Serban explored a great number of caves, especially from the upper basin of the Cerna Valley, but his main preoccupation was the study of the subterranean aquatic crustaceans. His first aim was the Microparasellidae, describing three new. species belonging to the genus Microcharon: M.motasii, M.orghidanii, M.oltenicus

The Spreading of the genus Mesoniscus in the Romanian Carpathians

ANDREI GIURGINCA
Article keywords: Mesoniscus graniger, inventory, cave, MSS, Romania

Article: Unlike Mesoniscus alpicola (Heller, 1858) found only in Lombardia and the North-Eastern Alps, Mesoniscus graniger has a greater range: from. the Northern Carpathians (Eastern Slovakia), all along the Carpathians, the Bihor and the. Banat Mountains tothe. Dinarids and the lulian Alps. (Gruner. et. Tabacaru, 1963; Tabacaru, 1969)

On the structure of the stomach at Mesoniscus (Isopoda, Oniscidea, Microcheta). The constitutive elements of the stomach at Isopoda

IONEL TABACARU, ANDREI GIURGINCA
Article keywords: Mesoniscus graniger, stomach structure, Oniscidea

Article: Sur tes relations phylogénétiques ainsi que sur la position’ systématique des Mesoniscidae (Microcheta, Oniscidea) ont été argumentées des opinions tres différentes. En vue de contribuer a l’élucidation du probléme; aprés une succincte analyse des principaux éléments constitutifs de l’estomac des Isopodes, on donne une description de l’estomac chez les espéces du genre Mesoniscus

Mesoniscus graniger dragani n. ssp. from the caves of Valea Sighiştelului and Valea Crăiasa. The granulation at Mesoniscus graniger

ANDREI GIURGINCA
Article keywords: M. graniger dragani, endemic subspecies

Article: Jusqu’a present, on connaissait deux sous-especes de Mesoniscus graniger en Roumanie: Mesoniscus graniger graniger (Frivaldsky, 1865) et Mesoniscus graniger moldavicus Radu, 1977. Notre travail présente une nouvelle sous-espéce, Mesoniscus graniger dragani, et les caractéres de la granulation tergale dans le genre Mesoniscres

A new species of Diplopod from Romania: Stenophyllum tabacarui n. sp. (Diplopoda, Julidae).

LIVIU VĂNOAICA
Article keywords: Stenophyllum tabacarui n. sp., Diplopoda, endemic

Article: Stenophyllum is an endemic genus for Romania and until now three species belonging to this genus were descriebed. Two of these species were described by Verhoeff in 1897 (8. hermannimuelleri and S. primitivum); both species were found in a little forest near the city of Brasov, under dead leaves. The third species (S. semenicensis), collected from Mount Semenic, was described by Traian Ceuca in 1989

Article keywords: Collembola, cave, karst, biotopes, ecological niches, Romania

Article: On présente 111 espéces de Collemboles hypogéicoles de Roumanie (formes troglobiontes, guanobiontes, troglophiles et trogloxénes). On indique pour chaque espéce, les biotopes qu'elle habite dang la ‘grotte, ainsi que sa distribution géographique. Pour les formes trogloxénes et pour certaines des espéces troglophiles on mentionne aussi les biotopes dans lesqueles elles ont été trouvées a l’extérieur

Description of a new species of Anommatus from Romania and of the male of A. duodecimstriatus (Coleoptera, Anommatidae)

EUGEN NITZU
Article keywords: Coleoptera, Bothrideridae, Anommatus oltenicus, n.sp.

Article: Many systematic problems of the genus Anommatus were solved due to Dajoz’s monograph (1977). The taxonomic characters and the biometric methods used by Dajoz contributed to eliminating a great part.of the confusions from the previous descriptions, wherein due to the insufficient taxonomic data, many coleopterologists included into one species’ (collective species) many distinct specific’ taxa

Biometric and genetic study of the subgenus Parapholeuon

RUXANDRA BUCUR, GHEORGHE RACOVIŢĂ, ALFRED SEITZ
Article keywords: Parapholeuon, Pădurea Craiului, mtDNA, phylogeographic relationships

Article: After a brief summing up of the findings revealed by the statistical analysis both by means of numerical analysis and by principal components analysis of some biometric data referring to 19 samples of Parapholeuon from Padurea Craiului Mountains, the paper presents the phyletic and phylogeographic relationships between the taxa from this subgenus, deduced by studying the variability of two (genic sequences of mitochondrial DNA

Aspects de l’histoire de la végétation postglaciaire du Sud de la Roumanie, dans le contexte national et sud-Européen

SORINA FĂRCAŞ, IOAN TANŢĂU, VASILE DECU, ANTONIU BODNARIUC, VICTOR GHEORGHIU
Article keywords: Palynology, phytohistory, karst sediments, guano, Postglacial, Lateglacial, Romania, Balkans

Article: This paper presents some aspects of the history of postglacial vegetation from the south, south-east and. south-west, of Romania, compared to those from the rest of Romania and the Balkans, revealed by palynological analyses with the support of Carbon 14 data. A synthesis of the palynological analyses in sediments of diverse origin, as well as in karstic sediments from the studied region, is accomplished. The results of the palynological analysis carried out on the guano deposit from Adam Cave, on the Cerna valley, are also presented

The history of Ostracoda (Crustacea) from the Danube Delta during the Upper Pliocene–Recent time

RADU OLTEANU
Article keywords: Danube Delta, evolution, Cosna Core, sediments, Ostracoda, Crustacea

Article: The evolution of the Danube Delta remains areal “terra incognita” and it is worth more than a mass. I have profited by one core (Cosna) traversing all the Danube Delta sediments, The oldest ostracod ‘community belongs to the Uppermost Dacian, fellowed by the Apscheronian and finally by the Holocene marine, Mediterranean immigrants. I have identified almost 80 species and five successive different facies

Considérations sur les avens et la glaciation pléistocène de Piatra Craiului (Carpates Meridionales–Roumanie)

TRAIAN CONSTANTINESCU
Article keywords: Piatra Craiului, Southern Carpathians, potholes, Pleistocene glaciation, cirque glaciers

Article: L'hypothése de l'existence des glaciers de cirque avec des dimensions réduites sur le versant nord-ouest-de Piatra Craiului au Pléistocéne, a été émise pour la premiere fois en 1984. Dans ce travail l’auteur expose des arguments qui soutiennent la présence des petits glaciers de cirque, aussi, sur le versant opposé (nord-est). Avenul de sub Colții Grindului, découvert en 1985, situé pres de la ligne de créte, constitue l'argument le plus significatif
