    Notes: Dolomites from the upper calcareous-siliceous member of the Miocene Monterey Formation exposed west of Santa Barbara, California, were analysed for geochemical, isotopic and crystallographic variation. The data clearly document the progressive recrystallization of dolomite during burial diagenesis in marine pore fluids.Recrystallization is recognized by the following compositional and crystallographic variations. Dolomites have decreasing δ18O and δ13C compositions, decreasing Sr contents and increasing Mg contents with increasing burial depths and temperatures from east to west in the study area. δ18O values vary from 5·3‰ in the east to − 5·5‰ PDB in the west and are interpreted to reflect the greater extent and higher temperature of dolomite recrystallization in the west. δ13C values correlate with δ18O and decrease from 13·6‰ in the east to − 8·7‰ PDB in the west. Sr concentrations correlate positively with δ18O values and decrease from a mean of 750 ppm in the east to a mean of 250 ppm in the west. Mol% MgCO3 values inversely correlate with δ18O values and increase from a minimum of 41·0 in the east to a maximum of 51·4 in the west.Rietveld refinements of powder X-ray diffraction data indicate that the more recrystallized dolomites have more contracted unit cells and increased cation ordering. The fraction of the Ca sites in the dolomites that are occupied by Ca atoms increases slightly with the approach to stoichiometry. The fraction of the Mg sites occupied by Mg atoms strongly correlates with mol% MgCO3. Even in early diagenetic, non-stoichiometric dolomites, there is little substitution of Mg in Ca sites. During recrystallization, the amount of Mg substituting for Ca in Ca sites decreases even further. Most of the disorder in the least recrystallized, non-stoichiometric dolomites is related to substitution of excess Ca on Mg sites.

    Notes: Nonsyndromal dysgnathia is a rare disorder with a probable genetic basis characterized by a hypoplastic or absent mandible (agnathia), microstomia, microglossia, and ear anomalies secondary to a defect in the ventral portion of the first branchial arch caused by defective neural crest migration or proliferation. Dysgnathic newborn infants often suffer fatal respiratory failure from airway obstruction. Nineteen children with isolated dysgnathia complex are described in the literature – six were stillborn, eight died shortly after birth, and only five survived infancy. All survivors required tracheostomy to maintain an airway. It is difficult to intubate the trachea of these children and early airway management planning is important. We report a neonate who presented with a prenatal ultrasound diagnosis of severe micrognathia, polyhydramnios and a family history of severe micrognathia. Airway management was achieved with fiberoptic intubation through a laryngeal mask airway (LMATM) during an ex utero intrapartum treatment procedure. Fiberoptic intubation was hampered by copious amounts of amniotic fluid. This child and her sibling are the first two siblings with isolated dysgnathia complex to have survived infancy and provide further support for a genetic basis to this condition.
