On this long isolated continent, the naming of several monotypic genera and a plethora of species have clouded both the phylogenetical and biogeographical relation- ships with other thiarids, in particular in Southeast Asia, thus hampering insight into the evolution of Australian taxa and their natural history. Based on own collections during five expeditions to various regions in Australia between 2002 and 2007, the study of rele- vant type material and the comparison with (mostly shell) material from major Australian museum collections, we describe and document here the morphology (of adults and juve- niles) and radulae of all relevant thiarid taxa, discussing the taxonomical implications and nomenclatural consequences. Presenting comprehensive compilations of the occurrences for all Australian thiarid species, we document their geographical distribution (based on over 900 records) with references ranging from continent-wide to drainage-based pat- terns. We morphologically identify a total of eleven distinct species (also corroborated as distinct clades by molecular genetic data, to be reported elsewhere), of which six species are endemic to Australia, viz.

  • 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.

Starr Perth 1977 EDITOR: A.F. LOVELL World List Abbreviation: Spec. PubIs West. Aust. Mus. ISBN 0 7244 6281 3 ISSN 0083-873X Printed and published at the Western Australian Museum, Frands Street, Perth. 284411. 4 TABLE OF CONTENTS Page Introduction 7 List of Birds 8 Gazetteer ". 105 Index 115 5 ---------------------------- ----~--- INTRODUCTION Ornithology in the Northern Territory has proceeded by fits and starts. The pioneering work of Gilbert, Stokes and Bynoe in 1839-41 was followed by many decades in which little or nothing was added to our knowledge of northern birds. Then came the great period 1894-1916, when Keartland, Dahl, Le Souef, Tunney, Hill, Barnard, Rogers and .McLennan laid the foundations of Northern Territory ornithology. The next half century was one of quiet consolidation. In 1967 I brought out a List of Northern Territory Birds (Spec. PubIs West. Aust. Mus. No. 4) which summarised our knowledge of distribution, relative abundance, habitat preferences, movements and breeding season. That paper was quickly rendered obsolete by a decade of intensive field work, notably by the Harold Hall Expedition to Arnhem Land etc., S.A. Parker and associates in Central Australia, D.N. Crawford and other CSIRO personnel in the far north, Julian Ford and colleagues in the far southwest, and W.H. Butler (on behalf of. the American Museum of Natural History) on Ellery Creek, the Roper and the Daly, and in the Pinkerton Range.
