    Aso-4火砕流堆積物中に存在する花崗岩マイロナイト異質礫について,その岩石学的検討と年代測定を実施し,朝地地域でマイロナイト化している荷尾杵花崗岩の検討結果と比較した.異質礫はいずれもマイロナイト化した含ざくろ石白雲母花崗岩であり,白雲母のK-Ar年代は98.4 Maであった.この試料中のジルコンのフィッショントラック長の観察結果は,Aso-4火砕流は噴出時に異質礫に年代を若返らせる程の熱は及ぼさなかったことを示す.一方,荷尾杵花崗岩は106 MaのCHIMEモナザイト年代,98.8 Maの白雲母K-Ar年代が明らかとなった.また,両者に含まれるざくろ石の組成範囲も一致する.これらのことから,100 Ma前後に発生したマイロナイト帯が朝地地域から阿蘇火山の地下まで延びていることが予想され,そのトレースは大分-熊本構造線と一致するとともに,九州における中央構造線の西方延長である可能性が示唆される.

    Late Devonian plant Leptophloeum rhombi-cum (Dawson, 1862) is newly discovered from the “Suberidani lenticular body” of the Kurosegawa Belt in Tokushima Prefecture, Shikoku, Southwest Japan. The twelve specimens are well-preserved in fine-grained sandstone, and the morphologic information may be useful for paleontological study of Leptophloeum. The presence of the Upper Devonian strata has been confirmed now by this fossil evidence in the Tokushima Prefecture. The bed composed of conglomerate, sandstone and shale, about 20 m thick, lies on the Siluro-Devonian Suberidani Group. The relationship between the Upper Devonian and the underlying “Bed G4” of the Suberidani Group seems to be unconformable.

    This study provides new uranium-series dates of the Ryukyu Group in Ishigaki-jima Island, South Ryukyu Arc (SRA). Two fossil hermatypic coral samples taken from coral limestone in the northern and southern parts of the island were dated as 118.5±2.0 ka and 119.9±2.0 ka, respectively, which correlates to oxygen isotope stage 5.5. This fact suggests that a reef complex was formed during isotope stage 5.5 in Ishigaki-jima Island, just like in Hateruma-jima and Yonaguni-jima Islands, SRA. The dated coral in the northern part was collected at an elevation of 1.3 m. It is, therefore, inferred that the northern part of the island was tectonically stable since isotope stage 5.5. On the other hand, the dated corals in the southern part was collected at an elevation of 15 m, which indicated that the southern part of Ishigaki-jima has been uplifted at rate of about 0.10 m/ky since isotope stage 5.5. Our data clearly show that the western part of SRA has been situated in the tectonic setting of uprift for the last 125 ky.

    Two fossil shark teeth found from the laminated gray sandy mudstone of the uppermost part of the Middle Miocene (15 Ma) Yokoo Formation (Northern Fossa Magna Region) in Ueda-city, Nagano Prefecture, central Japan, were described. In comparison with Recent specimens, these were identified as teeth of gulper shark, Centrophorus sp.. This report is the first description of the genus Centrophorus from Japan. The uppermost part of the Yokoo Formation is mainly composed of alternation of sandstone and mudstone (rich in sandy mudstone) which grades upward into glauconite sandstone. Therefore judging from the habitat of the Recent genus Centrophorus, the lithofacies,the molluscan and benthic foraminifer fossils, it is estimated that the uppermost part of the Yokoo Formation was deposited on the shelf slope at depths between 700 and 1500 meters under the reducing conditions.
