We show that a sufficiently energetic impact can generate a melt volume which, after isostatic adjustment and differentiation, forms a spherical cap of crust with underlying depleted mantle. Depending on impact energy and initial crustal thickness, a basin may be retained or impact induced crust may

Isozyme markers were used to investigate the origin of the polyploid liverwort, Pellia borealis (gametophytic n -18), which was believed to represent an autopolyploid form of Pellia epiphylla (n -9). Enzyme variation was studied in four taxa: polyploid P. borealis, two recently discovered sibling sp
