E-mail: [email protected] Abstract Caridina biyiga sp. nov. is described from Leichhardt Springs, Kakadu National Park, Northern Territory, Australia, based on morphological and molecular data. The new species is highly distinctive among its congeners in having the dactylus of pereiopod 5 similar to the dactyli of pereiopods 3–4 and lacking the comb-like row of spiniform setae typical of the genus. The branchial formula is also distinctive for the genus in lacking an arthrobranch at the base of pereiopod 1 and in having a vestigial epipod on maxilliped 1. Despite the distinctive morphology of the new species, the molecular data did not provide strong support for the recognition of a new genus.

  • Accessory Publication the Mesoveliidae, Hebridae, And
    Accessory Publication The Mesoveliidae, Hebridae, and Hydrometridae of Australia (Hemiptera, Heteroptera, Gerromorpha) with a reanalysis of the phylogeny of semiaquatic bugs Nils Møller AndersenA and Tom A. WeirB AZoological Museum, University of Copenhagen, Universitetsparken 15, DK-2100 Copenhagen, Denmark. BCSIRO Entomology, GPO Box 1700, Canberra ACT 2601, Australia. Email: [email protected] Abstract The semiaquatic bugs (Hemiptera-Heteroptera, infraorder Gerromorpha), comprising water striders and their allies, are familiar inhabitants of water surfaces in all continents. Currently, the world fauna has more than 1,900 described species classified in eight families and 165 genera.A phylogenetic analysis using maximum parsimony was performed on a dataset comprising 56 morphological characters scored for 24 examplar genera covering all families and subfamilies of Gerromorpha. The phylogenetic relationships found concur with those presented by Andersen (1982) except that the relationships between some subfamilies of Veliidae andGerridae are unresolved. The Australian fauna of Gerromorpha comprises six families, 30 genera, and 123 species. One third of the genera and more than 80% of the species are endemic to Australia. Previously, we have covered all Australian species of the families Gerridae, Hermatobatidae, and Veliidae. The present paper deals with the families Hebridae, Hydrometridae, and Mesoveliidae. We offer redescriptions or descriptive notes on all previously described species, describe Mesovelia ebbenielseni sp. nov. (Mesoveliidae), Austrohebrus apterus, gen. et sp. nov., and Hebrus pilosus sp. nov. (Hebridae), and synonymise Hebrus woodwardi Lansbury, syn. nov. (Hebridae) and Hydrometra halei Hungerford and Evans, syn. nov. (Hydrometridae). We present keys for the identification of genera and species, and map the distribution of all species.

  • Petroleum Reserved Block Policy
    Petroleum Reserved Block Policy July 2019 Petroleum Reserved Block Policy 1 BACKGROUND In April 2018 the Northern Territory Government accepted and committed to implement 135 recommendations made by the Scientific Inquiry into Hydraulic Fracturing of Unconventional Reservoirs in the Northern Territory (the Inquiry ). Recommendation 14.4 of the Inquiry’s Final Report requires that the following areas be declared reserved blocks under s 9 of the Petroleum Act , each with an appropriate buffer zone: (a) towns and residential areas (b) national parks (c) conservation reserves (d) areas of high ecological value (e) areas of cultural significance (f) Indigenous Protected Areas and (g) areas of high tourism value. This document sets out the assessment criteria that will determine whether an area falls into one of the above categories and the process for declaring an area a reserved block. A map of all the areas to be declared is at Attachment A . 49% of the Northern Territory will be covered by a reserved block. 2 CATEGORIES OF RESERVED BLOCKS Category 1 – Parks and Reserves An area falls in this category if: (a) it has been declared by the Administrator under ss 12 or 24 of the Territory Parks and Wildlife Conservation Act 1978 (NT) ( TPWCA ); (b) the Parks and Wildlife Commission has entered into an agreement in connection with s 74 of the TWPCA relating to the area; (c) it is land described in s 5 of the TPWCA; (d) it is land declared under the Cobourg Peninsula Aboriginal Land, Sanctuary and Marine Park Act 1981 (NT); (e) it is land held by the Conservation Land Corporation; (f) it is land established as a national park under the Nitmiluk (Katherine Gorge) National Park Act 1989 (NT); (g) it is Tjuwaliyn (Douglas) Hot Springs Nature Park; or (h) it is Kakadu National Park or Uluru-Kata Tjuta National Park.

  • 4. Goyder Park
    4. Goyder Park Goyder Park is all that remains of Goyder’s Camp and is significant as the first European settlement in Palmerston from which would grow the modern city of Darwin. George Woodroffe Goyder, Surveyor General of South Australia, landed at an area between Fort Hill and the Darwin escarpment on 5 February 1869. From this location Goyder’s party surveyed the city that would become Darwin and eight other townships along Northern Territory waterways between February and September. Following Goyder’s departure in September 1869, the camp was occupied for many years during the early settlement and expansion of Darwin. The area is significant as the landing point for the submarine telegraph cable between Java and Darwin that linked Australia to rest of the world in 1871 arising from construction of the overland telegraph line. It is also significant because of its connection, both physical and visual via Hughes Avenue, to buildings on the escarpment above. History1 Discovery of Darwin – Stokes and the Beagle In the absence of any definitive evidence to suggest any previous European discovery or discoveries of Darwin and its harbour, it is generally accepted that John Lort Stokes and the men of HMS Beagle were the first Europeans to sail on its waters and land on its shores. The Beagle was under the command of Commodore John Clements Wickham and Lieutenant John Lort Stokes. Their instructions included the finalisation of a survey of both Bass and Torres Straits, and the completion of an examination of the north-western coast that might lead to navigable inland waterways.
