The immature larvae are similar to those of Dacnusa areolaris (Nees) and Dacnusa
dryas (Nixon), and the mature larva is very similar to that of D.
Quaternary geologists know well that changes in ocean circulation in the Younger
Dryas resulted in a brutal cooling in Europe (and Atlantic Canada!) and that in the Sangamonian interglacial, sea level was about 6 m higher than during our present interglacial.
They've turned up in the little
dryas wildflower of the tundra and in leaves of tropical trees.

13,500 yr BP indicates that the site was deglaciated well before Younger

The most severe and longest lasting was the Younger
Dryas cold period, [approximately equals] 10800-10000 [sup.14]C yr BP, when there was a return to almost full-glacial conditions in the circum-North Atlantic region (e.g., Watts 1977, Lowe et al.
This record showed that around 13,000 years ago, the AMOC weakened about 400 years before the beginning of a major cold spell, known as the Younger
Dryas, in which an abrupt temperature drop of about 6[degrees]C occurred over Greenland.
