During a survey of the diatom flora of Longemer Lake (Xonrupt-Longemer, Vosges, France), two species with an unusual biogeographical distribution were observed. Psammothidium abundans, previously considered being a sub-Antarctic endemic but today also found in rivers in Sweden, Ireland and the UK, and Achnanthidium sublineare, up to now confined to northern Europe, were identified. These are the first records of these rare diatom species in France (A. sublineare) and in a European lake (P. abundans). Since there are only a few illustrations of these two species in the literature, both populations are illustrated using light and scanning electron microscopy in order to provide a detailed morphological account. Details on their actual biogeographical distribution are added.

“…Though the diatom assemblage is poor, the presence of Sellaphora in some samples is indicative of a perennial water-logged and streamlet system from which this diatom would have been ingested through the drinking of water. Sellaphora generally occurs in fresh water in both low and high mountainous lakes of glacial origin and prefers the acidic environment in the region 49 .…”

Modern feces samples of the endangered red panda (Ailurus fulgens) were examined using multiproxy analysis to characterize the dietary patterns in their natural habitat in India. An abundance of Bambusoideae phytoliths and leaves (macrobotanical remains) provide direct evidence of their primary dietary plants. In contrast, Bambusoideae pollen is sporadic or absent in the pollen assemblages. An abundance of Lepisorus spores and its leaves along with broadleaved taxa, Betula, Engelhardtia, and Quercus are indicative of other important food sources. Average δ13C values (− 29.6‰) of the red panda feces indicate typical C3 type of plants as the primary food source, while the, δ15N values vary in narrow range (3.3–5.1‰) but conspicuously reveal a seasonal difference in values most likely due to differing metabolic activities in summer and winter. The multiproxy data can provide a baseline for the reconstruction of the palaeodietary and palaeoecology of extinct herbivores at both regional and global scales.

During our investigation, 28 species belonging to the genus Sellaphora Mereschowsky were found in different types of water bodies and streams in Mongolia. Of these, 14 species have already been described and/or shown earlier in the flora of Mongolia, and we found 14 species for the first time. One new taxonomic combination has been proposed: Sellaphora glomus (J.R. Carter and A.E. Bailey-Watts) Glushchenko and Kulikovskiy comb. nov. One species is proposed for description as new to science: Sellaphora dorofeyukae Glushchenko and Kulikovskiy sp. nov. All species were illustrated with original light micrographs, and a number of species were also illustrated with scanning electronic photographs. The distribution of the identified species within Mongolia and the world is discussed.
