A third species Denhamiana sp. nov. ‘Dipperu’ is proposed awaiting more specimens. These camaenids are characterised by a combination of morphological features including a large helicoid shell with bold dark brown spiral bands and dark brown apertural lip, a closed umbilicus and a reproductive system featuring a reduced epiphallus, a short vestigial epiphallic flagellum and a cylindrical, sheathed penis that internally has a penial stimulator and triangular verge. Molecular study of one of the species indicates that the genus is a sister group to Bentosites Iredale, 1933 whose species occur in coastal and sub-coastal rainforests in localities between Ayr and Sarina, mid-eastern Queensland.","PeriodicalId":35552,"journal":{"name":"Memoirs of the Queensland Museum","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"82943712","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The migratory paths of humpback whales along the Western Australian coast lie within the continental shelf boundary or 200 m bathymetry. Major resting areas along the migratory path have been identified at Exmouth Gulf (southern migration only) and at Shark Bay. The northern endpoint of migration and resting area for reproductively active whales in the population appears to be Camden Sound in the Kimberley. A 6,750 square km 2 area of the Kimberley region, inclusive of Camden Sound, has also been identified as a major calving ground. The northern and southern migratory paths have been shown to be divergent at the Perth Basin, Dampier Archipelago and Kimberley regions. In all cases the northern migratory route is further off-shore.","PeriodicalId":35552,"journal":{"name":"Memoirs of the Queensland Museum","volume":"47 1","pages":"538-538"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2001-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"87547115","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
