A New Species

The widespread complex of mat-forming Coprosma species, hitherto known as 'Coprosma pumila', plus some close allies (C. petriei, C. atropurpurea, C. nivalis) have been reexamined. C. pumila s. str. is shown to be restricted to the northern central plateau and Ben Lomond areas of Tasmania. The name C. perpusilla Col. is resurrected for the orange-fruited plants of Australia and New Zealand formerly included in C. pumila. A new subspecies, C. perpusilla ssp. subantarctica, is erected for the plants on Macquarie, Auckland, Camp- bell and Antipodes Islands. A new species, C. niphophila, is recognised for the Mt Kosciusko region and the South Island of New Zealand. The six species and two subspecies of the complex are keyed, fully described and illustrated, and their interrelation- ships, particularly their trans-Tasman vicariance, are discussed.

Abstract3 new genera and 1 new subgenus are described: Plhudsonia n.gen. apparently related to Austrobrillia Freeman; Georthocladius Strenzke subgen. Atelopodella n.subgen.; Unniella n.gen. near Mesosmittia Brundin, but with genitalia resembling the Parakiefferiella group; and Platysmittia n.gen. related to Mesosmittia Brundin and Unniella n.gen. The genera Antillocladius Sasther, Lipurometriocnemus Sæther, Stilocladius Rossaro and Bryophaenocladius Thienemann are emended. A key to male imagines of Antillocladius is given. 10 new species are described: Plhudsonia partita, Antillocladius arcuatus, Antillocladius pluspilalus, Lipurometriocnemus vixlobatus, Psilometriocnemus cristatus, Atelopodella curticornus, Compterosmittia clavigera, Stilocladius clinopecten, Bryophaenocladius psilacrus, Unniella multivirga, and Platysmittia fimbriata. The description of Georthocladius (Atelopodella) curticornus is based on female, pupa and larva, while that of Psilometriocnemus cristatus and Stilocladius clinopecten includes male, female, pupa and larva; of Plhudsonia partita male and pupa, and the remaining ones are based on male imagines only. The South Carolina population of Diplocladius cultriger is compared with other Nearctic material and a male from Finse, Norway, and the possibility of non-conspecificity pointed out. Two unassociated pupae are described, one belonging to a genus near Brillia Kieffer, and one to a genus near Psilometriocnemus Sæther. One peculiar, unassociated larva is described apparently related to Acamptocladius Brundin. The orthoclad fauna treated show strong evidence of an ancestral generalized track between the southeastern states and the Antilles as well as evidence of common Gondwanean origin with some related genera from the subantarctic islands of New Zealand.

Literary Histories

This chapter discusses national literary histories in Australia, Canada, New Zealand, and the South Pacific and summarises the book's main findings regarding the construction and revision of narratives of national identity since 1950. In colonial and postcolonial cultures, literary history is often based on a paradox that says much about their evolving sense of collective identity, but perhaps even more about the strains within it. The chapter considers the complications typical of postcolonial literary history by focusing on the conflict between collective celebration and its refutation. It examines three issues relating to the histories of English-language fiction in Australia, Canada, New Zealand, and the South Pacific: problems of chronology and beginnings, with a special emphasis on Indigenous peoples; the role of the cultural elite and the history wars in the Australian context; and the influence of postcolonial networks on historical methodology.

To date, the majority of research on migrant identity negotiation and adjustment has primarily focused on adults. However, identity- and adjustment-related issues linked with global migration are not only related to those who have recently arrived, but are also relevant for their subsequent descendants. Consequently, there is increasing recognition by that as a particular group, the “1.5 generation” who were born in their home country but came to new countries in early childhood and were educated there. This research, therefore, investigates 1.5 generation South Koreans’ adjustment and identity status in New Zealand. More specifically, this study explores two vital social spaces—family and school—which play a pivotal role in modulating 1.5 generation’s identity and adjustment in New Zealand. Drawing upon in-depth interviewing with twenty-five 1.5 generation Korean-New Zealanders, this paper reveals that there are two different experiences at home and school; (1) the family is argued to serve as a key space where the South Korean 1.5 generation confirms and retains their ethnic identity through experiences and embodiments of South Korean traditional values, but (2) school is almost the only space where the South Korean 1.5 generation in New Zealand can acquire the cultural tools of mainstream society through interaction with English speaking local peers and adults. Within this space, the South Korean 1.5 generation experiences the transformation of an ethnic sense of identity which is strongly constructed at home via the family. Overall, the paper discusses that 1.5 generation South Koreans experience a complex and contradictory process in negotiating their identity and adjusting into New Zealand through different involvement at home and school.
