“…), including the five newly published here; four are endemic. According to a consensus of tectonic reconstructions (Dow 1977;Pigram & Davies 1987;Pigram & Symonds 1991;Charlton 2000;Hall 2002;Schellart et al 2006; and references therein), the New Guinean cordillera had its genesis in ophiolite emplacement along the north rim of the Australian craton in the early Tertiary, picked up on Australia's northward drift. Increasing pressures on the "mobile belt" thus formed, generated by oblique collision with the westward-moving Pacific plate, resulted in mountain building.…”

A number of hitherto unrecognized, deeply divergent taxa of Australasian songbirds have been revealed by DNA sequence studies in the last decade. Differentiation among them is at levels equivalent to family and subfamily rank among songbirds generally. Accordingly, the purpose of this paper is to name and describe eleven of them formally under Articles 13.1, 13.2, 16.1 and 16.2 of the International Code of Zoological Nomenclature so that they are made available for use in zoology. The taxa are: families Oreoicidae, Eulacestomatidae, Rhagologidae, Ifritidae and Melampittidae, and subfamilies Pachycareinae, Oreoscopinae, Toxorhamphinae, Oedistomatinae, Peltopsinae and Lamproliinae. The families to which the subfamilies belong are documented. Morphological and behavioural traits of the new family-group taxa are discussed; reasons for taxonomic rankings are summarized; and grounds for the geographic origin of corvoid songbirds, to which all the new families belong, are briefly addressed. One new genus, Megalampitta in Melampittidae, is also described.

The collision between the East Junggar and Bogda arcs is similar to the collision of Halmahera and Sangihe arcs in SE Asia and SW Pacific (e.g., Hall, 1996;Charlton, 2000) and the collision of Wallowa and Olds Ferry arc in the western North America (e.g., Dorsey and LaMaskin, 2007). However, such "soft" arc-arc collision may only last for a very short time (b 10 Ma; Fig.…”

Southeast Sulawesi is crosscutted by Lasolo Fault into two geological provinces: Tinondo and Hialu. Tinondo Geological Province is occupied largely by Ophiolite Complex in the northern part of Southeast Arm of Sulawesi. No study was conducted in relation to the geochemistry composition of Ophiolite Complex in North Konawe Regency. The aim of this study is to describe the ultramafic rock of the Ophiolite Complex in North Konawe Regency using field, geochemical, and petrographical analysis. Megascopically, the selected nine samples are described as greyish to blackish and fine to medium grains ultramafic rocks, which consist of pyroxene and olivine. Microscope, X-Ray Fluorescence (XRF), and Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry (ICP-MS) devices were used to obtain both petrography and geochemistry data. Major oxides data confirm that the selected samples are classified into ultramafic rocks as SiO 2 , MgO, and Fe 2 O 3T are the most abundant oxides. The studied samples presumably came from arc tholeiitic environment tectonic setting. Ultramafic rocks often contain promising economic metals whereas the average numbers of Ni, Mn, Cr, and Co of this study are 2,675; 1,074; 2,386; and 117 ppm respectively. The rocks are generally enriched in high field strength elements whilst rare earth elements value are low, ranging from 2.11 to 7.10 ppm. Microscopically, samples can be classified into three groups: olivine-hornblende pyroxenite, lherzolite, and olivine websterite. Geochemical data describes more about the discriminant analysis of the groups. Keywords
