陕西大荔一早更新世哺乳动物群

陕西大荔县洛河下游后河村附近游河组之上黄褐色砂砾层中,发现一个很有意义的动物群.动物群中含有典型的第四纪哺乳动物化石,如似三门马 (Equus cf. sanmeniensis)、平额象 (Archidiskodon planifrons)、奥米加鼢鼠 (Myospalaxomegodon) 和复齿拟鼠兔 (Ochotonoides complicidens) 等.经过对动物群特点、岩相古地理及古气候的分析,并与华北、华南及欧洲同期对比,该动物群在时代上介于狭义泥河湾期与游河期之间,名为后河村期.     

NEW FOSSIL MICROMAMMALS FROM SHANWANG, SHANDONG

<正> In comparison with the recovery of macromammals from Shanwang, Shandong, the finds of micromammals from the locality are still rather small. Up to now, only three forms, Shanwangia unexpectula Young, 1977, Meinia asiatica Qiu, 1981 and Diatomys shantungensis Li, 1977 have been reported. Two taxa of small mammals described in this paper can be added to the list of the middle Miocene Shanwang fauna. The specimens in question were collected from the diatomaceous quarry in 1983.     

THE FIRST DISCOVERY OF MIDDLE MIOCENE RODENTS FROM THE NORTHERN JUNGGAR BASIN, CHINA

<正> During the field season of 1982 in Northern Junggar Basin, surface collecting by the field party of IVPP at the outcrops of Halamagai Formation provided 7 isolated cheek teeth of rodents associated with some macromammals typical of middle Miocene age: Platybelodon, Stephanocemas thomsoni, Lagomeryx sp., etc.It is the first time that the Miocene rodents are discovered in this region. They belong to 3 genera, 4 species:Sinomylagaulus halamagaiensis gen. et sp. nov.Atlantoxerus junggarensis sp. nov.A. giganteus sp. nov.Amblycastor tungurensis Stirton, 1934Many thanks are due to Drs. V. Fahlbusch, N. Schmidt-Kittler, P. Mein and N. S. Shevyreva for their sending me the comparative materials, reprints and profitable discussion. The colleagues of IVPP field party put in a lot of hard work to collect this material. Mr. Shen Wenlong made the textfigures. To all these persons the author wants to express her heartfelt gratitudes.All the specimens herein described are stored in the collections of IVPP.     

华北人头骨非测量性状的观察

本文报告了一组华北人头骨上63项和另两项多年以前描述过而近年未见研究的非测量性状的出现情况,并作为一项新的性状描述了二分髁管。     

用细胞培养的流行性乙型脑炎病毒抗原做ELISA检测特异的IgG抗体

用C6/36细胞增殖流行性乙型脑炎(乙脑)病毒制备抗原,用ELISA法检测乙脑IgG抗体,可获得满意结果。用此法检测了河南,海南地区不同年龄人群的253份血清标本,阳性检出率为55.6％(141/253)。与血凝抑制法(HI)相比较,HI的阳性率仅37.1％(93/253)。两种方法的抗体滴度呈正相关r=0.88。用ELISA检测,乙脑抗体与登革病毒抗原有一定交叉,但滴度平均有16倍差异。本方法重复性良好,具有特异、敏感、简便的特点。可用于乙脑的诊断、流行病学调查和疫苗效果的考核。     

人β干扰素N端序列的变异与其抗病毒活性的关系

研究了人β干扰素N端序列的变异与其抗病毒活性的关系。采用DNA重组技术获得了两种干扰素变种:一种N端序列为MWIRGF,另一种为MAIRGF。这两种干扰素变种的抗病毒活性都明显下降。此结果提示,人β干扰素的N端序列对抗病毒活性起主导作用,在改造该蛋白结构时,应避免改动N端结构。     

广西隆林祥播二叠纪Armenina动物群

该文记述了广西隆林祥播中二叠统茅口阶下部(Cancellina带)的Armenina动物群,计11种,其中6新种,1个未定种。该动物群产于海相亮晶生物屑灰岩之中,属浅海生物滩相沉积环境。Armenina由Misellina演化而来,继之向Verbeekina及Paraverbeekina演进,是该演化系列中的关键环节,与其上或下亲缘属有明显差异,应视作一个独立的属,归于Verbeekinine亚科。Armenina属大多数种产于茅口阶Cancellina带,少数高级种延续至茅口阶Neoschwagerina带。文中同时论述了Armenina动物群的一般特征及演化趋向。
