“…On the contrary, for other species such as the toad Bombina bombina (Szymura et al, 2000), the newt Triturus sp. (Taberlet et al, 1998), the grasshopper Chorthippus parallelus (Hewitt, 1999), and the woodmouse A. sylvaticus (Michaux et al, 2003), the Turkish populations seem to be closely related to the Balkans ones suggesting a recent separation or frequent gene flow between these populations, probably during the Quaternary ice ages when the Marmara Sea was replaced by dry lands (Tzedakis et al, 1997). Therefore, why did the Oriental populations of A. flavicollis not colonise the Balkan regions during these periods?…”

The exact location of glacial refugia and the patterns of postglacial range expansion of European mammals are not yet completely elucidated. Therefore, further detailed studies covering a large part of the Western Palearctic region are still needed. In this order, we sequenced 972 bp of the mitochondrial DNA cytochrome b (mtDNA cyt b) from 124 yellow-necked fieldmice (Apodemus flavicollis) collected from 53 European localities. The aims of the study were to answer the following questions:• Did the Mediterranean peninsulas act as the main refuge for yellow-necked fieldmouse or did the species also survive in more easterly refugia (the Caucasus or the southern Ural) and in Central Europe? • What is the role of Turkey and Near East regions as Quaternary glacial refuges for this species and as a source for postglacial recolonisers of the Western Palearctic region?The results provide a clear picture of the impact of the quaternary glaciations on the genetic and geographic structure of the fieldmouse. This species survived the ice ages in two main refuges, the first one in the Italo-Balkan region; the second one in Turkey and the Near East regions. It is from the Balkan refuge that it recolonised all European regions at the end of the last glaciation. The Turkish and Near East populations are distinct from the European ones and they did not recolonise the Palearctic region probably because: (i) they were blocked by the Black Sea and the Caucasus, (ii) the long term presence of fieldmice populations in the Balkans prevented their expansion. These are genetically differentiated from the European and Russian ones and could be described as a particular subspecies. This result emphasises the importance of Turkey and the Near and Middle East regions as a refuge for Palearctic mammals.

“…The correlation (albeit tentative in some cases) of sedimentary features in rockshelter sediment records in various parts of the Mediterranean basin (including Greece) with Heinrich events and the Younger Dryas cooling, further highlights the potential sensitivity of some sites, for these signatures are not always clearly identifiable in regional pollen records (Woodward, 1997a;Turner and Sá nchez-Goñ i, 1997;Tzedakis et al, 1997;Courty and Vallverdu, 2001;Karkanas, this issue). It must be borne in mind, however, that establishing correlations among rockshelter sites is often problematic because the temporal continuity of the stratigraphic record is highly variable from site to site and, in many cases, large portions of time are not represented by deposits (Campy and Chaline, 1993).…”

“…Many of these records are well dated, and, because of more or less continuous sedimentation and favorable conditions for pollen preservation, these records can be correlated over extensive areas (Tzedakis et al, 1997). Many lacustrine sites provide continuous and often high resolution records of environmental change that are superior in many aspects to rockshelter sediment records in terms of their suitability for paleoclimatic reconstruction (Allen et al, 1999).…”

Holsteinian flu vial de pos its in the Samica River val ley in east ern Po land have been stud ied, in an ap prox i mately 12 m thick suc ces sion fill ing palaeochannels and com pris ing sandy chan nel fa cies suc ceeded by a pack age of gyttja, peat and silt depos ited in an ox bow lake. Chan nel belts in clud ing palaeochannel fills cut into outwash sands and are over lain by diamictic sands re worked by gelifluction un der periglacial con di tions. Sedimentological and palynological in ves ti ga tions in com bi nation al lowed the rec og ni tion of gla cial and inter gla cial de pos its.

The sed i men tary evo lu tion of the Samica val ley is in ter preted in the con text of the gla cial-inter gla cial cy cle. Val ley-scale ero sion and change of river style from braided to me an der ing occurred co evally with the de cay of an ice sheet (deglaciation) and the main phase of me an der ing river sed i men ta tion is at tributed to the lat est Elsterian and early Holsteinian. The next part of the inter gla cial, from pi o neer stage to es tab lished tem per ate con di tions, is re corded in a biogenic ox bow-lake fill. The suc ces sion stud ied has been com pared with pub lished data on the Eu ro pean flu vial de pos its of Mid dle Pleis to cene interglacials. It is pointed out here that river chan nel pat terns in West ern and East ern Eu rope dif fered.
