Zahra H, Zoheir M, Ali L, Kouider C, Amel A. 2018. Short Communication: Habitat characterization of Aristolochia baeticaL. in Tessala Mount, Western Algeria. Biodiversitas 19: xxxx. The aim of the current investigation was to study the characterization ofthe habitat of Aristolochia baetica L., an Ibero-Mauretanian species, present in Tessala Mount (West of Algeria). Twenty-fourphytoecological surveys were realized on eight stations (St1-St8) in which the species is present. The floristic inventory allowed us toidentify 68 species which are part of the floristic of A. Baetica, distributed in 31 botanical families; 6 biological and 19 biogeographicaltypes. The assessment of edaphic and plant data using correspondence factor analysis (CFA) and hierarchical ascending classification(HAC) showed that A. baetica is a member of plant training of scrublands and grows especially in stations at low heights with a highrate of limestone.

Ree Patterns

In Val d’Ala (Western Alps in Piedmont, Italy), the most interesting rocks for mineralogical research are represented by rodingite (rich in mineralized veins and fractures) associated with serpentinite in the eclogitized oceanic crust of Piedmont Zone, south of Gran Paradiso Massif. Among the vein-filling minerals, vesuvianite is well appreciated for its potential as gem-quality materials, even though it has never been characterized in detail. This study provides a gemological characterization of eleven vesuvianite crystals from different localities of the Val d’Ala. The refractive index (1.717–1.708) and density (1.705–1.709) values of our vesuvianite are in the range of those in the literature. Scanning electron microscopy with energy-dispersive spectroscopy (SEM/EDS) and laser ablation-inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (LA-ICP-MS) established that the samples are pretty compositionally homogeneous in terms of major elements, while trace and rare earth elements (REE) contents are more variable. All REE patterns are characterized by pronounced positive Eu anomalies. The variations in color (from olive green to dark green with chocolate (reddish-brown color shades and polychrome bands) are due to the relevant presence of Fe and, to a lesser extent, Ti and Cr. The X-ray powder diffraction (XRPD) analyses and SEM/EDS quantitative study indicate that the other phases associated with vesuvianite are represented by diopside, garnet, clinochlore.
