{"title":"Taxonomic revision of the family Psammobiidae (Bivalvia:Tellinoidea) in the Australian and New Zealand region","authors":"R. Willan","doi":"10.3853/J.0812-7387.18.1993.53","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.3853/J.0812-7387.18.1993.53","url":null,"abstract":"Thirty-seven species of Psammobiidae are recognised in a conchologically-based revision of taxa in the Australian and New Zealand region. Four genera are represented: Asaphis Modeer, l793; Heteroglypta Martens, 1880; Gari Schumacher, 1817; Soletellina Blainville, 1824. The largest genus, Gari, is divided into nine subgenera: Gari sensu stricto; Psammobia Lamarck, 1818; Gobraeus Brown, 1844; Dysmea DaB, Bartsch & Rehder, 1936; Kermadysmea Powell, 1958; Psammotaena Dall, 1900; Crassulobia n.subgen.; Psammobella Gray, 1851; Psammodonax Cossmann, 1877. Subgenera are not recognised for any of the other three genera. One new species, Gari (Gobraeus) eos, from the Chesterfield-Bellona Plateau in the Coral Sea is described. Asaphis nana Powell, 1958, Psammobia flexuosa A. Adams & Reeve, 1850, Psammobia brazieri Tate, 1886 and the genus Ascitellina Marwick, 1928 are excluded from the Psammobiidae as presently defined and transferred to the Tellinidae because all possess lateral teeth in at least one valve. Asaphis nana is possibly a species of Agnomyax Stewart, 1930. Psammobia flexuosa is a junior synonym of Cymatoica undulata (Hanley, 1844). Psammobia brazieri is probably a species of Tellina Linne. Ascitellina may be synonymous with Elliptotellina Cossmann, 1887. Psammobia vitrea QUoy & Gaimard, 1835 is transferred to the Galeommatidae, probably to the genus Scintilla Deshayes, 1856. The region possess the highest species diversity known anywhere for the family. Biogeographically, two faunas are discernible a considerably larger one towards the north essentially of widespread tropical Indo-west Pacific taxa (24 species), and a much smaller temperate one consisting of taxa endemic to southern Australia (5 species), and to New Zealand (5 species). Only three northern Australian species have limited distribution ranges: Gari eos n.sp.; G. rasilis (Melvill & Standen, 1899); G. gracilenta (E.A. Smith, 1884). The wealth of taxa enabled some preliminary phylogenetic consideration of the family. No autapomorphy emerged amongst the approximately 40 shell characters described for each species. Lack of a posterior flexure is considered symplesiomorphic. Lack of lateral teeth and fusion of the lower limb of the pallial sinus with the pallial line are synapomorphies that have apparently evolved independently several times (ie, homeoplaseous characters) in the Tellinoidea.

Clegg","doi":"10.3853/J.0812-7387.17.1993.61","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.3853/J.0812-7387.17.1993.61","url":null,"abstract":"The roadside pictures of an area in suburban Sydney were examined as valuable 'things to think with' for prehistorians in particular and other students of rock art. It was discovered that several traits which had been considered unique to, and characteristic of, European palaeolithic rock art are also characteristic of the pictures of suburban Sydney. New light is shed on the concepts of 'art' and 'style' when they are confronted with essentially familiar materials whose ethnography is at once known and intangible. CLEGG, J., 1993. Pictures, jargon and theory our own ethnography and roadside rock art. Records of the Australian Museum, Supplement 17: 91-103. This paper consists of three parts: i) introduction and fieldwork: exploration of the pictures beside a kilometre or so of Sydney roads, ii) theoretical discussion, and iii) refinement of jargon and concepts in the light of contemporary picture-making and ethnographic considerations. An invitation to offer a paper on Ethnography and Rock Art to the Australian Archaeological Association conference at Valla, November 1985, stimulated this investigation. More and more prehistorians are trying to use prehistoric pictures as relevant and valuable data. This is expressed in the literature (Conkey, 1978, 1980a, 1980b, 1982, 1984; Gamble, 1982; Jochim, 1982; Wobst, 1977) and at conferences (W orld Archaeological Congress, Southampton 1986; First Australian Rock Art Congress, Darwin 1988). What prehistory means to us is strongly linked to the contrasts between prehistoric situations and our own, so studies of prehistoric and contemporary pictures reinforce and illuminate each other. Margaret W. Conkey discovered several attributes which are characteristic of palaeolithic pictures, but which, it turns out, are also found in the pictures of our society. These will be discussed in the third section of this paper. It may be impossible to· make a satisfactory definition of 'art' for all purposes, but it is not difficult to recognise the sorts of things (e.g., marks on rocks) prehistorians study as 'rock art'. There are difficulties of definition, such as the need to determine whether some marks are natural or artificial and whether they are the by-product of some other process like sharpening a tool. Such problems are not the concern of this paper. The best-known prehistoric pictures are from the Palaeolithic of western Europe. They consist of drawings, paintings, prints and stencils, carvings, engravings and models. For analysis they are separated into two groups: mobiliary (portable pictures often made on bone, antler, or ivory), and parietal (pictures which are on rock surfaces, usually walls or ceilings of caves or rock shelters). 92 Records of the Australian Museum (1993) Supplement 17 In studies of this art, sometimes some sorts of marks are ignored, usually for the insidious but excellent reason that there is nothing to say about them. Thus, very little attention was paid to the 'signs' of the Europe","PeriodicalId":371360,"journal":{"name":"Records of The Australian Museum, Supplement","volume":"52 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1993-05-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116008964","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 material used consisted of engraved macropod tracks from a Panaramitee style Aboriginal engraving site in western New South Wales. The analysis consisted of two experiments one on zoological specimens and the other on an archaeological assemblage. The zoological experiment investigated macropodid taxonomy on the basis of pes morphology, while the archaeological experiment searched for patterning within the engraved macropod track assemblage. Principal Component Analysis and Cluster Analysis were the statistical methods employed. A major proportion of the variability observed within the track engravings was explained in terms of macropod species differentiation. McDoNALD, J., 1993.
