    Aktywność uskoków w Dolinie Rio Colca w rejonie Pinchollo-Maca, Andy Środkowe, południowe Peru
    (Wydawnictwa AGH, 2008) Żaba, Jerzy; Małolepszy, Zbigniew
    Fault/fracture network within Mesozoic and Quaternary formations has been studied in Rio Colca Valley in Pinchollo - Lari - Maca area (Peruvian Andes). The results show structural framework of the Rio Colca Valley based on nearly all tectonic discontinuities observed in the area, mostly on WNW-ESE and NE-SW faults, and on few W-E faults. Displacements of Mesozoic, Miocene and Quaternary formations observed on nearly all faults in the study area provide evidence for recent tectonic activity. Most of the faults in the Mesozoic bedrock continue in Quaternary colluvial deposits. Recent faulting led to development of a system of distinct, primary scarps and land cracks on the surface, which have not been eroded yet.

    Flora mszaków i porostów Kanionu Colca (Peru) - badania rekonesansowe
    (Wydawnictwa AGH, 2008) Cykowska, Beata; Flakus, Adam
    The paper is a preliminary report of a long-term project that aims at completing the flora of bryophytes and lichens in the projected Canyon Colca and the Valley of the Volcanoes National Park area (Arequipa, Peru). The bryophytes and lichens of this deepest canyon in the world has remained underexplored for a long time. These organisms dominate in the vegetation cover and exhibit a remarkable species diversity resulting from habitat richness in this area. The important result of preliminary studies was discovered the first records of lichens Lecanora leuckertiana in South America and Lepraria impossibilis in the Southern Hemisphere. Further researeh should result in completing floristic lists of bryophytes and lichens of the Canyon Colca and the Valley of the Volcanoes National Park and should provide arguments for the protection of its unique wild life.
