✦ Synopsis

Sedimentary rocks of the Llangranog area are subdivided into the Tresaith and Llangranog Formations of Ashgill age and the Gaerglwyd and Allt Goch Formations of Llandovery age, formations which form the basis for mapping inland areas. Folds and cleavage follow a northeast to west-southwest arcuate trend. In a narrow zone near the coast, cleavage dips southeast and folds verge to the northwest; inland, the opposite prevails. Faults exhibit two main trends, northeast and north-northeast. Some cross-cutting occurs but, more commonly, trends combine to give arcuate anastomosing patterns on which southeastward directed reverse movements across east-northeast portions is translated into high angle sinistral oblique slip on sections trending north-northeast.

## Abstract The Swansea Valley Disturbance is one of four NE‐SW belts of faulting and folding which cross the northern limb of the South Wales Coalfield syncline at variance with the normal E‐W Variscan structures. The Disturbance extends from Hay‐on‐Wye (Herefordshire) southwestwards to Clydach (n

1. The first recorded effects of human activity on the aquatic flora of Llangorse Lake, South Wales, were the result of introductions of Elodea canadensis in the early 1900s and of Nymphoides peltata in 1936, altering the species balance of both submerged and floating plant communities. 2. The most
