Campbell, K.S.W., Barwick, R.E. & Senden, T.J., March, 2009. Evolution of dipnoans (lungfish) in the Early Devonian of southeastern Australia. Alcheringa 33, 59–78. ISSN 0311-5518. Dipnoans (lungfish) were first described from the Lower Devonian at Taemas N.S.W. in 1906 with the discovery of a species now known as Dipnorhynchus suessmilchi (Etheridge). Subsequent descriptions were based on material from Wee Jasper in N.S.W., Buchan in Victoria and from the Snowy Mountains region of N.S.W. A new genus, Speonesydrion Campbell & Barwick, 1984, has since been described from Wee Jasper and Taemas. No other genera have been described from southeastern Australia (the Molong-Monaro Terrane of Yolkin et al. 2000). A new genus Cathlorhynchus is described from the Currajong Limestone Member. Near the top of the sequence, a large genus described as Dipnorhynchus cathlesae by Campbell & Barwick (1999), has now been placed in a new subgenus Dipnorhynchus (Placorhynchus). Examination of overseas occurrences indicates that there was no immigration of other dipnoans into southeastern Australia in the Early Devonian, hence, we consider that the collective Dipnorhynchus–Speonesydrion lineages must have evolved locally. This evolutionary pattern provides an opportunity to discuss localized evolution within a distinctive group through the Emsian.

Evolution of dipnoans (lungfish) in the Early Devonian of southeastern Australia

Qiao, T. & Zhu, M., 13.4.2015. A new Early Devonian lungfish from Guangxi, China, and its palaeogeographic significance. Alcheringa 39, xxx–xxx. ISSN 0311-5518A new species of Cathlorhynchus (Dipnorhynchidae, Dipnoi) is described based on a mandible from the marine Yukiang Formation (early Emsian, Early Devonian) of Guangxi, southern China. It resembles the type species of Cathlorhynchus, C. trismodipterus, in that the anterior portion of the internal median septum terminates abruptly and does not contact dermal bones ventrally. The new Chinese form, together with Erikia jarviki from the Emsian of Yunnan, southern China, confirms the occurrence of the Dipnorhynchus lineage outside Australia. Coupled with the distribution of Westollrhynchus, Ichnomylax and Jessenia, we propose that the Dipnorhynchus lineage was dispersed widely during the early Emsian, corroborating the trans-Panthalassic distribution of early sarcopterygians.Tuo Qiao [qiaotuo@ivpp.ac.cn] and Min Zhu [zhumin@ivpp.ac.cn], Key Laboratory of Vertebrate Evolution and Human Origins of Chinese Academy of Sciences, Institute of Vertebrate Paleontology and Paleoanthropology, Chinese Academy of Sciences, PO Box 643, Beijing 100044, PR China.

澳大利亚哺乳动物入选澳大利亚化石国家物种名录

Two silicified fossil woods are identified as a new species of Laurinoxylon from the Huitrera Formation at Laguna del Hunco in the Chubut Province of Argentina. Supporting characters include the absence of growth ring boundaries, vessels solitary or in short radial multiples, simple and scalariform perforation plates, alternate intervessel pitting, scalariform vessel-ray pits, scarce axial parenchyma, septate fibres, rays usually one to four cells wide, and idioblasts commonly associated with rays and rarely with the axial parenchyma. The fossil woods resemble members of the Perseae-Cinnamomeae-Laureae clade but do not closely match any extant genus; they therefore probably represent an extinct lineage. Although lauraceous woods are known from other Palaeocene and Eocene floras in Patagonia, the presence of the family at Laguna del Hunco was previously based only on leaf compressions without preserved cuticular details. Our new record confirms the occurrence of Lauraceae in the diverse Laguna del Hunco flora, which contains many genera associated with extant rainforest floras.
