AB - ABSTRACT: A seaway connected tropical Atlantic and Eastern Pacific waters in the Central American region until approximately 3 Ma. However, sequential changes in marine paleoenvironments on either side of the Isthmus of Panama from its Early Miocene beginnings have implications for the development of the isthmus as a marine environmental barrier much earlier. Benthic foraminiferal assemblages contained in the uplifted Neogene marine sediments exposed on Panama's and Costa Rica's Caribbean and Pacific coasts are used to interpret the paleoenvironments. Biogeographic (Atlantic vs. Pacific) affiliations of the taxa are used to distinguish the timing of the environmental separation caused by the emplacement of the marine barrier. Early Miocene to middle Pliocene faunal assemblages from the Limon, Bocas del Toro and Panama Canal basins on the Caribbean side of the isthmus are compared to those from several Pacific basins of Darien, Eastern Panama. Early Miocene (ca. 17-18 Ma) Caribbean isthmian taxa of Panama and Costa Rica are from lower and middle bathyal paleoenvironments, respectively, and mostly cosmopolitan, suggesting a deep, open interoceanic seaway. By the early middle Miocene ca. 15-16 Ma the Caribbean side had shallowed to upper bathyal depths, but the Pacific side of eastern Panama still showed a middle bathyal connection and taxa were predominantly cosmopolitan without a strong Pacific aspect. Late middle Miocene assemblages of Darien show some endemism of upper to middle bathyal taxa. Water depths shallowed in central to western Panama to inner to middle neritic 12 Ma. Although a bathyal connection persisted in northern Colombia and there was interoceanic exchange of surface water to at least 200 m depth from central to eastern Panama in the late Miocene (ca. 6 Ma), upper bathyal (also neritic) assemblages of Darien had already developed a strong Pacific aspect by ca. 11 Ma, suggesting differentiation of tropical American marine paleoenvironments by that time.

AB - ABSTRACT: A recently discovered sequence of sedimentary and igneous rocks from Bocas del Toro in western Panama reveals the history of the rise of the Isthmus of Panama in this region from 19.5 Ma to about 8 Ma. The oldest deposit is the Burdigalian Punta Alegre Formation, consisting of muddy ooze and mudstone that contains abundant and diverse nannofossils and planktonic and benthonic foraminifera, yielding an age of 19.5-18 Ma. Deposition took place in lower to middle bathyal water depths. The overlying Valiente Volcanics consists of a heterogeneous suite of interfingering lithofacies characteristic of a tropical volcanic arc. The lithofacies are 1). Columnar basalt and basalt flow breccia; 2) Pyroclastics; 3) Coarse terrestrial, fluviatile and shallow marine volcaniclastics 4) Coral reef lenses with diverse large coral colonies; 5) turbidites and coarse debris flows . Detailed logging of eight sections located around the Valiente Peninsula and Popa and Deer Islands have established that from 18 to 12 Ma a volcanic archipelago emerged in the Bocas del Toro region. Rapid shallowing from lower to upper bathyal depths occurred from Burdigalian (19.5-16.4 Ma) to Langhian (16.4-14.8) time. From Langhian to middle Serravallian (12.2 Ma) no bathymetric change occurred but in the late Serravallian, about 12 Ma, bathyal deposits were replaced by extensive alternating sequences of terrestrial and nearshore marine sediments. The paleobathymetric history of the Limon and Panama Canal Basins follow a similar trajectory. Thus by the end of the Serravallian (11.2 Ma) an extensively emergent archipelago had formed from the Panama Canal Basin westward. Coeval deposits to the east in Darien, eastern Panama, and the Choco, northwestern Colombia, continued to be deposited in bathyal depths indicating a continued oceanic gap between the Central American Volcanic Arc and South America.

AB - ABSTRACT: A single large specimen of carcineretid crab from the Cretaceous Puerto Romero unit of Colombia constitutes the basis for a new species, Ophthalmoplax triambonatus. A re-diagnosis of the Carcineretidae results in the assignment of five genera to the family: Carcineretes Withers, 1922; Branchiocarcinus Vega, Feldmann, and Sour-Tovar, 1995; Mascaranada Vega and Feldmann, 1991; Ophthalmoplax Rathbun, 1935; and Woodbinax Stenzel, 1952. The cross-sectional profile of O. triambonatus suggests that it was a back-burrower, rather than an active swimmer.

AB - ABSTRACT: Pollen reconstructions in the Bogota basin (Colombia) indicate the expansion of tropical high-altitude grassland (paramo) at the expense of Andean forests during glacial intervals. The carbon isotopic composition (delta (super 13) C) of soil organic matter (SOM) can be a useful indicator of changes in vegetation affecting grasslands because it distinguishes between two groups of grasses (C (sub 3) and C (sub 4) ) adapted to different ecological environments. Values of SOM delta (super 13) C were determined in four weathering profiles containing both modern (Holocene) soils and paleosols formed during the Last Glacial Stage. These profiles are located along an altitudinal transect in the Bogota basin, extending from 2550 to 3100 m. Values of SOM delta (super 13) C in the topsoil horizons reflect those of the native C (sub 3) vegetation that currently dominates the ecosystems in the Colombian Andes. Although C (sub 4) grasses are currently negligible in the basin, elevated SOM delta (super 13) C values indicative of C (sub 4) plants were found in two Holocene soils. Environmental changes or ancient agricultural activities could explain the increased abundance of these plants in the basin during the late Holocene. Isotopic values in the studied paleosols revealed the presence of a mixed C (sub 3) /C (sub 4) vegetation in the basin during the Last Glacial Stage, thus indicating the expansion of C (sub 4) grasses. We hypothesized that lowered pCO (sub 2) and possibly reduced rainfall resulted in the colonization of the tropical Andes by lowland C (sub 4) grasses despite of prevailing cooler temperatures.
