The sperm head structural organisation of the koala and hairy‐nosed wombat, and the effects of varying concentrations of the ionic detergent, Triton X‐100, on its component parts, were determined by electron microscopy. Although alike in form between the 2 species, the sperm nucleus of the former, but not the latter, had nuclear vacuoles and appeared to be more easily dispersed by the Triton X‐100. The structure of the acrosome of the spermatozoon was similar between the 2 species and, in both, ...

A new species of wombat, Rhizophascolonus ngangaba sp.nov., is described from Miocene deposits at Riversleigh along with additional specimens of Rhizophascolonus crowcrofti, and some maxillary and mandibular fragments attributable to Rhizophascolonus.A phylogenetic analysis indicates that Rhizophascolonus is the next most plesiomorphic wombat after Nimbavombatus boodjamullensis.Morphological characters common to Nimbavombatus and Rhizophascolonus suggest that adaptations to high rates of tooth wear ...
