Studies involving anatomical description and taxonomy of fossil odontocetes offer insights into their evolutionary history and diversity. This study analyses tusk-like teeth in odontocetes including the description of a new species, Nihoroa reimaea, from the Waitaki valley, North Otago, New Zealand. Dental features of Nihoroa reimaea, a gracile, longirostrine odontocete with procumbent tusk-like anterior teeth and slightly denticulate cheek teeth, are described in detail. A comparative analysis of tusk-like teeth from New Zealand specimens and from elsewhere in the world was performed allowing a classification of tusk-like teeth in odontocetes and highlighting the differences between true tusks and rooted procumbent teeth. Correlation analyses revealed significant associations between rostrum proportions and tooth crown morphology. This study contributes to the understanding of tusk-like teeth and illuminates their significance in odontocete evolution. Nihoroa reimaea expands our knowledge of fossil cetaceans and highlights the importance of New Zealand's exceptional fossil record of odontocetes with tusk-like teeth.

Many of the implications of climate change for Aotearoa (New Zealand) remain unclear. To identify so-far unseen or understudied threats and opportunities related to climate change we applied a horizon-scanning process. First, we collated 171 threats and opportunities across our diverse fields of research. We then scored each item for novelty and potential impact and finally reduced the list to ten threats and ten opportunities through a prioritisation process. Within the 20 items presented in this paper, we uncover a range of climate-related costs and benefits. Unexpected opportunities evolve from economic reorganisation and changes to perspectives. The threats we highlight include the overall failure to interconnect siloed policy responses, as well as those relating to extreme events and feedbacks, as well as pressures that undermine the coherence of society. A major theme of our work is that climate change effects in Aotearoa are likely to transgress the boundaries of research disciplines, industry sectors and policy systems, emphasising the importance of developing transdisciplinary methods and approaches. We use this insight to connect potential responses to climate change with Aotearoa’s culture and geography.

The education literature suggests that there are rural–urban differences in educational achievement. Lower educational achievement in rural schools may impact entry into highly competitive medical programmes and disadvantage rural students. Within this study, the National Certificate of Educational Achievement (NCEA) and University Entrance (UE) attainment rates are compared across Aotearoa New Zealand secondary schools for 2012–2021. High schools were classified as urban or rural according to the two rural admission schemes used in the medical programmes at the University of Otago and the University of Auckland. Descriptive statistics were calculated and regression models created to adjust for a range of variables. The data demonstrates that rural high schools have lower NCEA and UE attainment. Lower Māori student NCEA and UE attainment, greater socioeconomic disadvantage and differing characteristics account for the majority of differences between rural and urban schools. The lower UE attainment rate for rural schools will likely mean that rural students will have greater difficulty in entering medical programmes and that this inequity is worse for rural Māori students. Medical programme admission pathways need to undergo a fundamental shift–from workforce pathways to workforce and equity pathways in order to address rural workforce issues.

ABSTRACTAs in many places, heritage narratives in Ōtautahi Christchurch remain focused on colonial times. To expand these narratives, we examined three subfossil mataī (Prumnopitys taxifolia) excavated along a 700 m arc during residential subdivision earthworks. Characterisation used δ15N, radiocarbon, and ring width measurements. Conventional (uncalibrated) radiocarbon ages were 1222 BP (calibrated median 856 CE), 932 BP (1148 CE) and 545 BP (1425 CE). Mean δ15N values of +1.0 ± 1.1‰ (±SD) were similar to nearby alluvial forest remnants, with no discernible change through the 550-year sampling interval. Ring widths in three trees from the 545 BP site were 0.58 ± 0.12 mm, half that of present day mataī from humid West Coast forests at a similar latitude. The 545 BP site included a burnt stump, and stumps with longhorn beetle (Cerambycidae) larval galleries that occur only in already dead trees. We conclude that the forest was slow growing and mesotrophic but dynamic due to periodic flooding, ending with fire around 1430 CE and inundation of the dead standing forest years or decades later. We are now using traditional and social media and artists to disseminate the narrative of a former mataī forest ‘beneath our feet’ through schools, community groups, and in public facilities.KEYWORDS: Cerambycidaecommunity engaged researchhuman impactNew ZealandpodocarpPrumnopitys taxifoliaSamalasstable isotope AcknowledgementsJo Golden (Christchurch City Council) facilitated retrieval of the material that underpinned our work, and carver John Robertson found the fire-damaged stump.

ABSTRACTWe report on an articulated fossil boxfish (Tetraodontiformes, Ostraciidae) recently recovered from the Pliocene of the North Island of New Zealand. The specimen was collected from the Tangahoe Formation, a mid-Pliocene (c. 3.0-3.4 Ma) shallow marine deposit, at Waihi Beach, South Taranaki. The fossil boxfish measures 10.7 cm in standard length, with an estimated total length of c. 13–14 cm (the caudal fin is not preserved). The fish is preserved in right lateral view, lying on its side, and has an intact body covering of fused hydroxyapatite plates that rigidly encase the fish, as is characteristic of boxfishes. The plates are hexagonal to subhexagonal in shape and largest close to the dorsal midline. Fossil boxfish have previously been recorded from Northern Hemisphere sites ranging in age from Palaeocene to Quaternary, but not from the Southern Hemisphere. Recent reports note that boxfishes and several other tropical Pacific fish species are now being seen off of northern New Zealand – the Pliocene boxfish from Taranaki, as well as an intriguing addition to New Zealand’s paleohistory, may also reflect how the ongoing impact of climate change will return New Zealand to a warmer marine ecosystem – similar to what prevailed during the Pliocene.KEYWORDS: TetraodontiformesOstraciidaeBoxfishPlioceneNew Zealandenvironmental change AcknowledgementsOur thanks to Jean-Claude Stahl (NMNZ) for photography and to John Buchanan-Brown for making the specimen available and his expert preparation skills, and to the reviewers of an earlier draft of this paper for their helpful comments.

摘要本文报道了最近在新西兰北岛上新世发现的一具有关节的箱鱼化石(四齿形，介形虫科)。标本采集于南塔拉纳基Waihi海滩的Tangahoe组，这是一个中上新世(约3.0-3.4 Ma)浅海沉积。箱鱼化石的标准长度为10.7厘米，估计总长度约为13-14厘米(尾鳍未保存)。这条鱼被保存在右侧，侧躺着，有一个完整的身体覆盖着融合的羟基磷灰石板，坚硬地包裹着鱼，这是箱鲀的特征。板的形状为六边形至半六边形，最大的靠近背中线。以前在北半球的遗址中记录了从古新世到第四纪的箱鱼化石，但在南半球却没有。最近的报告指出，箱鱼和其他几种热带太平洋鱼类现在在新西兰北部出现——来自塔拉纳基的上新世箱鱼，以及新西兰古代史上一个有趣的补充，也可能反映出气候变化的持续影响将如何使新西兰回归到一个更温暖的海洋生态系统——类似于上新世时期盛行的生态系统。感谢Jean-Claude Stahl (NMNZ)的摄影，感谢John Buchanan-Brown提供的标本和他专业的准备技能，感谢本文早期草稿的审稿人提供的有帮助的意见。这项研究得到了the Papa Collection Development Fund的支持。披露声明作者未报告潜在的利益冲突。

This research provides insight into current te reo Māori (the Indigenous language of Aotearoa, New Zealand) use in English-medium ECE settings. We videoed naturalistic conversations between kaiako (educators) and tamariki (aged 15–28 months) at 24 English-medium BestStart ECE centres. Te reo Māori was quantitatively assessed across five routines: kai (food) time, book time, group time, free play, and nappy change. The highest rates of te reo Māori use per minute were observed during the kai time, book time, and group time routines, respectively, and lowest during free play and nappy change. Although scripted/prepared te reo Māori use (e.g. karakia and waiata; prayer and song) were well used, opportunities for more complex and elaborate te reo Māori use remain. This research provides insight into the current use of te reo Māori in English-medium ECE settings, an enhanced understanding of kaiako contributions to te reo Māori revitalisation goals, and applications for practice.
