The presence of genetic polymorphisms in alcohol dehydrogenase, phosphogluconate dehydrogenase (decarboxylating), phosphoglucomutase, adenosine deaminase and glucosephosphate isomerase in the jackass morwong, or tarakihi, and the distribution of the variation in the fish stocks in the waters of south- eastern Australia are described. Although the Australian and New Zealand stocks are genetically distinct, no evidence of population structuring was found in Australian waters.

Eight polymorphic loci were detected in a survey for electrophoretically detectable protein variation, carried out using liver samples from the Australian jack mackerel, T. declivis. The distribution of gene and genotype frequencies in sample sets from different areas shows that distinct subpopulations of the species occur in Western Australia and in New Zealand and that two or more geographically overlapping but genetically distinct subpopulations occur in the waters around south-eastern Australia.

Abstract A description is provided for Melampsora medusae. Information is included on the disease caused by the organism, its transmission, geographical distribution, and hosts. HOSTS: Pycnia and aecia on Coniferae, especially Larix and Pseudotsuga, less commonly on Pinus and other genera (Ziller, 1965). Uredinia and telia on species of Populus, especially Populus deltoides, and its varieties and hybrids P. balsamifera, P. nigra var. italica and others. Its exact host range on species of Populus is not known due to confusion with other species of Melampsora and to uncertainty in the reported identity of some species of Populus and clones (Walker, Hartigan & Bertus, 1974). DISEASE: Leaf rust of poplars, causing severe leaf damage and early defoliation on susceptible species and clones. Continued defoliation of successive flushes of growth predisposes trees to winter injury and dieback (Peace, 1962) and can cause death of trees, especially nursery stock and trees 1-2 yr old (25, 204; 47, 241; Walker Haitigan & Bertus, 1974). Reduction in incremental growth of timber occurs with susceptible varieties. Some damage can occur to the conifer hosts. It is often severe on Pseudotsuga menziesii (45, 459; 47, 126) and in nurseries Pinus spp. and Larix spp. can be heavily attacked (Ziller, 1965). GEOGRAPHICAL DISTRIBUTION: North America (Canada, USA), Asia (Japan); Australasia and Oceania (Australia, New Zealand); Europe (France, Spain). Reports of Melampsora spp. on poplars (including P. deltoides and P. canadensis) from South America (Argentina, 21, 173), Uruguay (Lindquist & de Rosengurtt, 1967) may refer in part to M. medusae. TRANSMISSION: By air-borne urediniospores, often over long distances (suspected from eastern Australia to New Zealand). Urediniospores survive the winter in milder climates on semi-evergreen lines and on green sucker growth of deciduous trees. This is probably the main method of overwintering in the Southern Hemisphere and in warmer parts of the Northern Hemisphere. The possibility of bud carryover as occurs with M. epitea on Salix in Iceland (Jorstad, 1951) and the Canadian Arctic (Savile, 1972) should be investigated. Telia survive the winter and basidiospores formed in spring infect susceptible conifers in parts of the Northern Hemisphere (Ziller, 1965) but no conifer infection has so far been found in Australia.

<p>The New Zealand coastline and marine environment is a diverse place and presents plenty of dispersal obstacles to many of the organisms that live there. This thesis investigates the phylogeography of one of the most common fish species around the coast of New Zealand, the endemic wrasse Notolabrus celidotus, using the mitochondrial DNA control region and compares genetic variability to another common New Zealand wrasse, Notolabrus fucicola in a local setting. These species are part of a tribe of temperate fish, the pseudolabrines, which can be found throughout the South and North-West Pacific. The phylogeny of this tribe was also analysed using the mitochondrial 16S gene to investigate the relationships among the New Zealand pseudolabrines and to those species elsewhere. The results suggest that pseudolabrines from mainland New Zealand are closely related and are likely to have originated from southern Australia while species from the Kermadec Islands and other northern islands are more closely related to the species of eastern Australia. The Notolabrus and Pseudolabrus genera should be reviewed to remedy paraphyly of Pseudolabrus. Furthermore, N. celidotus shows no population structuring throughout its range and appears to be rapidly expanding. Genetic variability was similar for both N. celidotus and N. fucicola. The results suggest that the pseudolabrine tribe has made multiple migrations to New Zealand where Notolabrus celidotus was able to spread around the three main islands and, likely facilitated by a long planktonic larval duration, was able to maintain high gene flow among populations.</p>

While earlier works have shown that the operculum is inserted in the position of the first or second branchial radiole in serpulimorph taxa, the present paper shows that it is inserted independently of the branchial radioles of both sides in the genera Galeolaria and Pyrgopolon. Although both genera possess several characters in common with the group consisting of Pomatoleios, Pomatoceros and Spirobranchus, a cladistic analysis revealed that they form two distinct clades, as sister groups to each other. Extant species of Pyrgopolon occur mainly in the Caribbean region, and of Galeolaria in eastern Australia and New Zealand. However, there is palaeontological evidence indicating that fossil species of Pyrgopolon had a wider geographical distribution, having existed in Europe during geological times.

Abstract A description is provided for Melampsora larici-populina. Information is included on the disease caused by the organism, its transmission, geographical distribution, and hosts. HOSTS: Pycnia and aecia on Larix, especially L. decidua and L. leptolepis. Uredinia and telia on Populus spp., especially P. nigra and its varieties and hybrids, P. balsamifera, P. yunnanensis and others. Its exact host range on Populus spp. is not clear due to confusion with other species of Melampsora and to uncertainty in the reported identity of some species of Populus and clones. DISEASE: Leaf rust of poplars, causing severe leaf damage and early defoliation on susceptible hosts. Defoliation can sometimes occur two or three times in the season, each defoliation being followed by a new growth flush. These successive defoliations lead to winter injury and dieback (Peace, 1962) and a reduction in incremental timber growth can occur. Rust damage also renders some varieties more susceptible to Dothichiza dieback (39, 57) caused by Cryptodiaporthe populea (CMI Descript. 364). Poplars vary greatly in their reaction to infection and some clones show useful resistance (39, 57; 42, 347; 43, 498, 551; 47 129; Steenackers, 1972). Seasonal conditions may influence the reaction of some varieties (45, 402). On larch (Larix) hosts, the damage is negligible (Peace, 1962). GEOGRAPHICAL DISTRIBUTION: Africa (North Africa, Rhodesia, South Africa), South America (Argentina, Chile, Colombia); Asia (Israel, Korea, Japan), Australasia and Oceania (Australia, New Zealand), Europe (widespread; reported specifically for Britain, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Lithuania, Netherlands, Norway, Portugal, Spain, Sweden, USSR). TRANSMISSION: By air-borne urediniospores, often over long distances (suspected from eastern Australia to New Zealand). In Japan, urediniospores produced in autumn can remain viable and pathogenic until the following spring (41, 745), and in milder climates they can survive on semi-evergreen lines and on green sucker growth of deciduous trees. This is the main method of overwintering in Australia. In the Northern Hemisphere, overwintered telia give rise to basidia and basidiospores which may cause inconspicuous spring infections on Larix.

Abstract A description is provided for Acroconidiella tropaeoli. Information is included on the disease caused by the organism, its transmission, geographical distribution, and hosts. HOSTS: On Tropaeolum spp. DISEASE: Causes severe losses in nasturtium seed fields in coastal California. It produces a yellowing and death of the leaves after mid season and this reduces yield. The fungus occurs sometimes on stems and is present on seeds but is most abundant on leaves where it forms characteristic irregular or subcircular brownish or purple spots visible on both sides. These are up to 1 cm diam. or often larger through confluence, the centres later shrivel and the surrounding tissues may form a broad yellow margin. GEOGRAPHICAL DISTRIBUTION: Argentina, Australia, Ceylon, Ethiopia, Guatemala, Haiti, India, Jamaica, Kenya, Mauritius, New Guinea, New Zealand, Tanzania, Uganda, U.S.A. TRANSMISSION: The pathogen is borne internally and externally in up to 93% of commercial nasturtium 'seed', persisting for at least 3 years in the form of thick-walled mycelium in the pericarp and seed.
