“…The faunas included in this overview, their ages and their oxygen isotope stage correlations were summarized in Part 1 of this series of papers , modified slightly in the introduction to Part 2 (Beu 2006), and are not repeated here. Once again this work is founded on the seminal works on Wanganui Basin by Fleming (1947Fleming ( , 1953, and much of what the present 'Wanganui Basin working group' has published (particularly Beu , 2006Abbott et al 2005;Naish et al 2005;Pillans et al 2005) is based on Fleming's brilliant foundation.
