A new species of fish that lived in Australian freshwater lakes and rivers about 15 million years ago has been named after the researcher from The Australian National University (ANU) who played a key role in its discovery.
Professor Jochen Brocks discovered several fossils of the ancient fish, named Ferruaspis brocksi, at the McGraths Flat fossil site near Gulgong in New South Wales (NSW).
Aotearoa New Zealand experiences frequent earthquakes, including destructive ones such as those that struck Christchurch in 2010 and 2011, and near Kaikōura in 2018.
In the South Island, the largest seismic hazard is the 600km Alpine Fault, which runs the length of the Southern Alps and defines the boundary between the Australian and Pacific tectonic plates.
