The graminid inclusions described here challenge previous notions of the Baltic amber source area being a dark, close canopy forest and rather indicate at least some open and light habitats with swampy and wet areas within the 'Baltic amber forest', and thus enlighten its hitherto obscure palaeoenvironment and floristic composition.

The resin flows of these threatened trees are here shown to be induced by two beetle species, which bore into branches and branchlets, leading to abundant outpouring of resin, which gradually solidifies into often drop-shaped resin bodies. The exudate is colonized by a resinicolous and likely insect-vectored ascomycete, Resinogalea humboldtensis, which is only known from Mont Humboldt. The fungus grows into fresh resin and eventually develops ascomata on the surface of solidifying resin. The solidified resin is also colonized by another fungus, a dematiaceous hyphomycete. Based on protein coding (CO1, CAD, ArgK) and ribosomal (LSU) genes, the larger branch-boring beetle is a weevil of the tribe Araucariini, which represents the sister group of all other cossonine weevils. The smaller beetle species belongs to the longhorn beetles (Cerambycidae). The strong host specificity of the Araucariini, along with the occurrence of two unique fungi, suggests that the resin-associated community is native and has evolved on the endemic conifer host. The formation of large amber deposits indicates massive resin production in the past, but the environmental triggers of exudation in Mesozoic and Cenozoic ecosystems remain unclear. Our observations from Mont Humboldt support the notion that the occurrences of small drop-shaped amber pieces in Triassic to Miocene amber deposits were linked to ancient insect infestations."],["dc.identifier.doi","10.1007/s11829-016-9475-3"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/15156"],["dc.language.iso","en"],["dc.notes.status","final"],["dc.title","Resin exudation and resinicolous communities on Araucaria humboldtensis in New Caledonia"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","unknown"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]

Bieb., Viscaceae) are hemiparasites with complex roles in nature. They are one of the most severe pests in northern hemisphere conifer forests, but they also enhance the structural complexity and species diversity of the forests. Here, we describe the first pre-Miocene macrofossils of dwarf mistletoes. The fossils from Eocene Baltic amber provide new insights into the morphological evolution of the Arceuthobium lineage and its paleobiogeography. METHODS: The amber inclusions were investigated with light microscopy and compared with extant Viscaceae and to historic descriptions of lost Baltic amber fossils with affinities to Viscaceae. KEY RESULTS: Six fossil species of the A rceuthobium lineage, A. johnianum comb. nov.,A. mengeanum comb. nov., A. conwentzii sp. nov., A. groehnii sp. nov., A. viscoides comb. nov. and A. obovatum sp. nov., occurred in source forests of Baltic amber, representing the oldest macrofossil evidence of dwarf mistletoes. They share morphological features of their bracts, internodes, fruits, and stomata with extant Arceuthobium. Differences from extant dwarf mistletoes, such as the perianth merosity, the nonfusion of squamate bracts and presence of oblanceolate expanded leaves, indicate their affiliation to an ancient lineage of the genus. CONCLUSIONS: The occurrence of six species of dwarf mistletoes in a single amber deposit suggests A rceuthobium was a keystone taxon of the Baltic amber source area. As in extant conifer forests, they probably influenced the structural complexity of the forest, not only leading to more open woodlands but also increasing species diversity, at least at a microhabitat scale."],["dc.identifier.doi","10.3732/ajb.1600390"],["dc.identifier.isi","000402016000009"],["dc.identifier.pmid","28533204"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/42621"],["dc.language.iso","en"],["dc.notes.status","final"],["dc.notes.submitter","PUB_WoS_Import"],["dc.relation.issn","1537-2197"],["dc.relation.issn","0002-9122"],["dc.title","Diverse early dwarf mistletoes (Arceuthobium), ecological keystones of the Eocene Baltic amber biota"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","yes"],["dc.type.peerReviewed","yes"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]
