  • The Genus Egernia (Lacertilia, Scincidae) in Western Australia
    Rec. West. Aust. Mus., 1978,6 (2) THE GENUS EGERNIA (LACERTILIA, SCINCIDAE) IN WESTERN AUSTRALIA G.M. STORR* [Received 27 October 1976. Accepted 5 May 1977. Published 30 June 1978.] ABSTRACT The 17 species and subspecies of Egernia occurring in Western Australia are described and keyed, viz. E. depressa (Giinther), E. stokesii stokesii (Gray), E. stokesii aethiops nov., E. stokesii badia nov., E. kingii (Gray) [syn. E. nitida (Gray)], E. napoleonis (Gray) [E. nitida of authors, not Gray], E. carinata H.M. Smith, E. formosa Fry, E. douglasi Glauert, E. luctuosa (Peters) [syn. E. lauta DeVis], E. pilbarensis nov., E. pulchrapulchra Werner, E. pulchra longicauda Ford, E. multiscutata bos Storr, E. inornata Rosen, E. striata Sternfeld, E. kintorei Stirling & Zietz. A lectotype is designated for Tropidolopisma dumerilii Dumeril & Bibron [= E. kingii]. The Victorian representative of E. luctuosa is described as a new species, E. coventryi. INTRODUCTION This paper brings up to date an earlier revision of the Egernia whitii group (Storr, 1968) and deals for the first time since Mitchell (1950) with the other western members of the genus. It is based on specimens in the Western Australian Museum (registered numbers cited without prefix). I have also used some specimens in the National Museum of Victoria (numbers prefixed with NMV), Australian Museum (AM), Queensland Museum (QM), collec­ tion of the British Joint Services Expedition to Central Australia (JSE), and British Museum (Natural History), for the loan of which I am indebted to Mr A.J. Coventry, Dr H.G. Cogger, Miss J. Covacevich, Lt-Cdr A.Y. Norris and Mr A.F.

  • (Centrolepidaceae) in Australia
    J. Adelaide Bot. Gard. 15(1): 1-63 (1992) A TAXONOMIC REVISION OF CENTROLEPIS (CENTROLEPIDACEAE) IN AUSTRALIA D. A. Cooke Animal and Plant Control Commission of South Australia GPO Box 1671, Adelaide, South Australia 5001 Abstract Centrdepis in Australia is revised and twenty species are recognised. This revision is based on morphological features that are discussed in relation to the biology of the genus. One new species, C. curta, and a new subspecies, C. strigosa subsp. rupestris, are described and illustrated. The new combinations C. monogyna subsp. paludicola and C. strigosa subsp. pulvinata are made. Introduction Centrolepis is a genus of small annual and perennial monocots. It forms, with Aphelia and Gaimardia, the minor family Centrolepidaceae. The family has its main centre of diversity in Australia with 29 species; a few occur in New Zealand, south-eastern Asia and South America. The close affinity of the Centrolepidaceae to the Restionaceae, and its remoteness from the two genera segregated by Hamann (1976) as the Hydatellaceae, are widely recognised in contemporary systems of classification (Cronquist, 1981; Dahlgren & Clifford, 1982; Takhtajan, 1980). Taxonomic history The genus first became known from material of the near-coastal species sent to Europe by the early botanist-explorers and collectors. In 1770 Banks and Solander on the Endeavour collected specimens of Centrolepis, now referred to C. banksii and C. exserta, that they tentatively labelled as species of Schoenus (Cyperaceae). Labillardière (1804) based the new genus Centrolepis, which he placed under Monandria Monogynia in the Linnaean system, on a Tasmanian specimen. Robert Brown (1810), using Banks' and Solander's material and his own collections from the voyage of the Investigator around Australia in 1801-4, drafted manuscript epithets for a further twelve Centrolepis species.
