Salt Deposits

Denmark is heavily covered by Pleistocene Glacial drift deposits resting on Tertiary and Upper Cretaceous formations. The geology of the pre-Cretaceous was unknown until recently.Shortly after 1920 a number of water borings encountered salt ground water in various parts of the country and several occurrences of salt ground water ascending to the surface were simultaneously located by floristical investigations. A survey of the geology of the salt groundwater was subsequently carried out and it was concluded, that part of the salt groundwater might possibly be due to ascending brines from salt deposits in the deep subsurface, and Permian salt formations were suggested.A mining law was issued in 1932 and exploration work was shortly afterwards started by the Danish American Prospecting Co. Operations were carried on until 1959 when the concession was abandoned.The extensive exploration work threw light on the formations and structure of the deeper subsurface of Denmark. The most significant results are the following.An Archaean to Older Paleozoic High divides Denmark in two sedimentary sub-basins which contain relatively deeply lying Permian salt formations superposed by Triassic and Jurassic sequences. A salt dome province is found in Northern Jutland.Permian and Jurassic formations are partly absent on the Paleozoic High. The basin south of the High constitutes the northernmost part of the North German Sedimentary Basin.

Taxonomic Studies

The specimens collected and reared to an adult stage on their respective hosts utilized to characterize the species of the genus Glyphodes based on morphological and genital characters of adults, revealed three species of the genus Glyphodes and were documented from Karnataka viz., Glyphodes caesalis Walker, Glyphodes pulverulentalis Hampson and Glyphodes vertumnalis Guenee on jack-fruit, mulberry and jasmine, respectively. These three species differ morphologically in having entire body green colour in G. vertumnalis, abdomen with oblique lateral stripes in G. pulverulentalis wherein, G. caesalis having sub-marginal black edged patch on costa with four spots. In genitalia, uncus greatly curved and beak shaped in G. vertumnalis, uncus slim and slightly curved in G. caesalis, whereas in G. pulverulentalis uncus long, narrow and slightly curved with short setae at apex.
