Lamellilatirus Lyons & Snyder 2008
Genus Lamellilatirus Lyons & Snyder, 2008 Type species. Fusus ceramidus Dall, 1889, Recent, Barbados, by original designation (Lyons & Snyder, 2008: 236). Diagnosis. Shell: small to medium size, fusiform, light-weight, with columellar folds faint or (usually) lacking and with abundant scale-like lamellae on sutural ramp. Radula: rachidian tooth subquadrate, longer than wide, with 3 forward-directed cusps, median cusp longest; lateral tooth wide, with single small cusp at medial edge, flanked by larger, mesially slanting saw-toothed cusps; much smaller cusp near lateral margin separated from others by wide gap (Lyons & Snyder 2008: 228, fig. 3a, after Bullock 1968). Remarks. Absence of columellar folds is common among genera of Fusininae but also occurs among some genera of Peristerniinae, e.g. the Indo-west Pacific genus Fusolatirus Kuroda & Habe, 1971, but the radula of Fusolatirus has alternating long and short cusps on lateral teeth (Kuroda & Habe 1971: 182). Bullock (1968: pl. 8) figured radulae of several Western Atlantic species of Peristerniinae now in Polygona Schumacher, 1817, Hemipolygona Roveretto, 1899, Pustulatirus Vermeij & Snyder, 2006, Bullockus Lyons & Snyder, 2008 and Lamellilatirus. Of these, the Lamellilatirus radula resembles those of species now classified in Pustulatirus, but shells of that genus have distinct columellar folds (Lyons & Snyder 2013a). The Lamellilatirus radula also resembles those of some species of the Indo-west Pacific genus Benimakia Habe, 1958 (see Bouchet & Snyder 2012: figs. 3A–F), but shells of that genus have a labral tooth that is absent in Lamellilatirus. In studies of molecular phylogeny of Fasciolariidae (Couto et al. 2016: 314, 315; Kantor et al. 2018: 4, 14), a species of Lamellilatirus from French Guiana (IM 2013-56511) grouped with species of Latirus Montfort, 1810, Leucozonia Gray, 1847 and Polygona Schumacher, 1817 (genera customarily placed in Peristerniinae), not with genera of Fusininae. Five species of Lamellilatirus have been described: L. ceramidus (Dall, 1889) and L. dominiquei, L. eburneus, L. lamyi and L. sunderlandorum, all of Lyons and Snyder, 2013. Species of Lamellilatirus were known previously only in the southern Caribbean Sea, ranging from Puerto Rico and Honduras southward to Venezuela. Two new species described here extend the range of the genus to northeastern South America.Published as part of Lyons, William G. & Snyder, Martin Avery, 2019, Fasciolariidae (Gastropoda: Neogastropoda) of French Guiana and nearby regions, with descriptions of two new species and comments on marine zoogeography of northeastern South America, pp. 239-268 in Zootaxa 4585 (2) on pages 254-255, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.4585.2.2, http://zenodo.org/record/263730

Double-devolution or double-dealing? : the local government White Paper and the Lyons review
New Labour's third White Paper promised the revitalization of local government after ten years of control freakery. It does not, however, live up to the promise of a 'new localism'. The tenor of the paper is moralising and prescriptive, claims to a new approach belied by the government's negative response to Lyons. Proposals for reform are ambiguous, offering no guarantees against back-door centralisation. Such cause as there may be for optimism largely depends on the capacity of localities to take the initiative. A fundamental debate about the role of local government, local democracy and the relationship between centre and locality is therefore still needed. Given the preponderance of path dependencies, strategic dilemmas and structural constraints upon the centre, the demand for local democracy will have to be initiated, voiced and organised by local citizens and councillors themselves

Land-atmosphere interactions in Southwest Western Australia
The Southwest of Western Australia (SWWA) is a region of extensive land cover change with an estimated 13 million hectares of native vegetation cleared since European settlement. Whilst previous studies have suggested meteorological and climatological implications of this change in land use, no studies have explicitly focussed on the detailed mechanisms behind the impacts of land-cover change on individual meteorological phenomena. This thesis seeks to identify the physical mechanisms inducing changes within the atmosphere by using the Regional Atmospheric Modeling System (RAMS V6.0) to simulate the impact of land use change on meteorological phenomena at different scales and evaluate these model results against high resolution atmospheric soundings, station observations, and gridded rainfall analyses where appropriate. Sensitivity tests show that land-cover change results in an increase in low-level atmospheric moisture advection associated with the southern sea-breeze due to a reduction in surface roughness. It also results in a decrease in convective precipitation associated with cold-fronts and convective clouds associated with the surface heat trough, due to an increase in wind speed, and a decrease in turbulent kinetic energy and vertically integrated moisture convergence within the PBL. Large-eddy simulations further highlight the role of land-cover change and soil moisture, as well as the contributions of surface versus entrainment fluxes on the growth of the PBL and development of convective clouds. These results are discussed within the broader context of the meteorology of the region

Differences in sutural ramp morphology and spire angle among the species were also discussed. Couto <i>et al</i>. (2016: 310, 314, 315) included tissue from the 9.3 mm paratype of <i>F. guyanensis</i> (IM- 2013-55965; as <i>Fasciolaria</i> sp.) in a study of molecular phylogeny within Fasciolariidae. Using nuclear and mitochondrial genes, they compared <i>F. guyanensis</i> to <i>F. tulipa</i> from Guadeloupe, French Antilles and <i>F. bullisi</i> Lyons, 1972 from Florida. Results showed levels of divergence between <i>F. guyanensis</i>, <i>F. tulipa</i> and <i>F. bullisi</i> similar to those seen with other closely related species; their maximum likelihood analysis shows <i>F. guyanensis</i> sister to <i>F. tulipa,</i> but their Bayesian analysis shows it sister to <i>F. bullisi</i>, although with weak support (Lyons & Snyder 2016: 5).</p> <p> <i>Fasciolaria guyanensis</i> is represented in GUYANE and G0 material by 15 specimens (6.8–151.1 mm) taken at seven stations (depths 46–118 m); nine additional specimens (to 175.0 mm) were examined from other sources. Several MNHN specimens are from depths greater than the previous record (73 m; Work 1969), with the deepest occurrence from sta. CP 4381 (114–118 m).
