Acta Universitatis Upsaliensis. Comprehensive Summaries of Uppsala Dissertations from the Faculty of Science and Technology 911. 33 pp. Uppsala. ISBN 91-554-5814-9 This thesis concerns the history and the intrafamilial delimitations of the plant family Colchicaceae. A phylogeny of 73 taxa representing all genera of Colchicaceae, except the monotypic Kuntheria, is presented. The molecular analysis based on three plastid regions—the rps16 intron, the atpB- rbcL intergenic spacer, and the trnL-F region—reveal the intrafamilial classification to be in need of revision. The two tribes Iphigenieae and Uvularieae are demonstrated to be paraphyletic. The well-known genus Colchicum is shown to be nested within Androcymbium, Onixotis constitutes a grade between Neodregea and Wurmbea, and Gloriosa is intermixed with species of Littonia. Two new tribes are described, Burchardieae and Tripladenieae, and the two tribes Colchiceae and Uvularieae are emended, leaving four tribes in the family. At generic level new combinations are made in Wurmbea and Gloriosa in order to render them monophyletic. The genus Androcymbium is paraphyletic in relation to Colchicum and the latter genus is therefore expanded.

Email: [email protected] ABSTRACT. Phylogenetic relationships of 43 species in 11 genera, representing four subfamilies of the family Lutjanidae and two genera of the family Caesionidae, were inferred using mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI). Further assessment using the mtDNA control region (CR) was carried out to infer the relationship between the Indian and western Pacific types of Lutjanus russellii collected from the coast of Peninsular Malaysia. A total of 11 and 12 species were sequenced for COI and CR genes, respectively. Clade formation reflects, to some extent, the species groupings based on morphological characteristics and their biogeography. The close phylogenetic relationship between Pinjalo pinjalo and the Lutjanus red snappers (Lutjanus malabaricus and Lutjanus sebae) warrants a taxonomic revision of the former as the two genera are currently separated based on non-exclusive morphological characters. A sequence divergence of 4.2% between the Indian and western Pacific types of L.

Thesis submitted by Boga Soni Figa Post Graduate Diploma of Science (JCU) Graduate Certificate in Research Methods (JCU) In August 2014 For the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy In the School of Marine and Tropical Biology James Cook University I Abstract In the face of continuous threats to the freshwater systems of the world from waste of anthropogenic origins and climate-induced environmental changes, the productivity of large floodplain ecosystems in virtually every continent is under serious threat of survival. Fish distributions and temporal dynamics are in part functions of habitat structure and conditions. Riverine fish population biology and dynamics have been studied extensively worldwide and described under various river productivity models that explain community dynamics and structure according to a range of spatial and temporal factors. Fish distribution and movements have been described in four dimensions – longitudinal, lateral, vertical, and temporal (seasonal) – that reflect the dynamic spatial and temporal nature of fish movements and habitat requirements in freshwater systems.
