	Tasmania - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Tasmania was once inhabited only by an indigenous population, the Tasmanian Aborigines, and evidence indicates their presence in the territory, later to become an island, at least 35,000 years ago (rising sea levels cut Tasmania off from mainland Australia about 10,000 years ago).
		Tasmania is a rugged island of temperate climate, and was considered so similar in some ways to pre-industrial England that it was referred to by some English colonists as 'a Southern England'.
		Tasmania's rail network consists of narrow gauge lines to all four major population centres and to mining or forestry operations on the west coast and north-west.

		Tasmania has an abundance of lakes, including the continent's largest permanent natural freshwater lake, Great Lake, and the deepest, Lake St Clair.
		Some highland lakes in Tasmania are dimictic - stratifying in summer and winter and overturning in the spring and autumn.
		If a lake has an extensive deep zone where the water may be dark, cold or oxygen deficient, the benthic population living on the bottom of the lake (and fringing) components can be small.

	Primary zoological types in QVMAG: Oligochaete worms A-E
		It is unclear which of these worms is the holotype and which are the vouchers (not paratypes) '14:1549, 14:3039, same sample as H, (posterior amputee plus four matures and one juvenile)' as given in Blakemore, 2000.
		It is unclear whether the latter are some of the 'seven specimens that are superficially similar but are insufficiently diagnosed for inclusion as paratypes' referred to in Blakemore, 2000.
		The two worms are presumably the two mature, dissected worms referred to in Blakemore, 2000 as the holotype and paratype P3, but the holotype is not distinguished.
