DARKNESS UNDER CANDLESTICK: GLACIAL REFUGIA ON MOUNTAIN GLACIERS
Original language description
The paper surveys MIS3 and MIS2 records of molluscs and vertebrates from two caves in the High Tatra Mountains, situated close to the surface of the Vistulian mountain glaciers. The diversified communities with demanding elements and local endemite species appeared here undoubtedly even during the LGM. In explanation of this fact we reconsidered paleoclimatic and paleo-environmental specificities of high mountain habitats during glaciation and proposed a model suggesting the conditions enabling continuous survival of demanding forms and alpine endemites just on the surface of mountain glaciers. With aid of robust indirect evidence we demonstrated that at least in the High Tatra Mountains, the surfaces of the Vistulian glaciers were colonized by a diversified community of small vertebrates including demanding and woodland elements. Further, we proved that such conditions appeared there not only during the mild part of the Vistualian glaciation (MIS 3) but also during the time of LGM (MI
