The recent hydrophiloid species Helophorus (Gephelophorus) sibiricus (Motschulsky, 1860) is recorded from the early Miocene deposits of Kartashevo assigned to the Ombinsk Formation. A detailed comparison with recent specimens allowed a confident identification of the fossil specimen, which is therefore the oldest record of a recent species for the Hydrophiloidea. The paleodistribution as well as recent distribution of the species is summarized, and the relevance of the fossil is discussed. In addition, the complex geological settings of the Kartashevo area are briefly summarized.

“…The overlying Beshcheul Formation was dated as middle Miocene by Dorofeev (1963) due to the similarities of its fossil flora with the Sarmatian floras of the Russian plain. Middle Miocene was adopted as the age of the formation even in more recent publications (e.g., Volkova 1982 , LePage 2007 , Durnikin 2010 ).…”

“…However, the fossil record of the genus in this area is, despite of its abundance, restricted to a few species during the Miocene and Pliocene (see Appendix S1). There is a shift in the composition of the aquatic flora of Siberia between the warmer and drier Tertiary and the cooler and wetter Neogene (Durnikin, 2010), probably due to the immigration into Siberia of exogenous elements. Carex seems to follow this pattern, becoming a more diverse genus in Siberia in more recent times.…”

A Commented Synopsis of the Pre-Pleistocene Fossil Record of Carex (Cyperaceae)

Despite the existence of a rich record, fossils of Carex have been largely neglected by neobotanists. Here we present an exhaustive critically commented checklist of the so-far published pre-Pleistocene records ascribed to Carex. We have made every attempt to include all pertinent paleobotanical literature. The extensive collection of the Museum für Naturkunde (Berlin, Germany) has also been studied. We found that up to 83 names belonging to different Carex groups may be applied to reliable remains, plus another 23 names of doubtful remains. These fossils come from more than 550 sites, mainly from C and E Europe and the Russian Federation. The age of the reliable fossil record ranges from the Eocene to recent times. Problems detected on the taxonomy, age and naming of these fossils are discussed. We hope that this work will stimulate neobotanical and paleobotanical communities to work together on broad-scope systematic projects as this one.
