Four new genera of osteolepiforms and a new rhizodontiform genus are described from the Middle-Late Devonian Aztec Siltstone (Beacon Supergroup) of Antarctica. Other indeterminate osteolepid, eusthenopterid and rhizidontid remains, and a single indeterminate porolepiform scale, are described from the same formation.

A discussion and description of prehistoric fish within an international series Material of six osteolepiform genera is described in Morphology, Phylogeny and Taxonomy of Osteolepiform Fish. This publication is Number 61 within the Fossils and Strata series. The international Fossils and Strata series features monographs in palaeontology and biostratigraphy with taxonomic descriptions. The series is owned by and published on behalf of The Lethaia Foundation in cooperation with the Scandinavian countries.

Looks at the fossil plant history of Antarctica and its relationship to the global record of environmental and climate change.

Providing a thorough review of fish evolution biology, this text should be of interest to a range of biologists, especially students of fish behaviour, distribution, physiology, molecular biology, genetics and ecology.

Presents a comprehensive overview of the fossil record of Antarctica framed within its changing environmental settings. Jeffrey Stilwell, Monash University; John Long, Australian palaentologist, currently at Natural History Museum of Los Angeles, USA.

A multi-author volume Major Events in Early Vertebrate Evolution examines the origin and early evolution of the backboned animals (vertebrates)-the group which comprises all fishes, amphibians, reptiles, birds and mammals, including ourselves. This volume draws together evidence from fossils, genes, and developmental biology (the study of how embry

World-class palaeontologists and biologists summarise the state-of-the-art on fish evolution and development.
