Magnetic polarity stratigraphy of Pliocene and Pleistocene fossil vertebrate localities in southeastern Australia
A series of magnetic polarity stratigraphy studies are presented from localities in Victoria and southwest New South Wales, Australia. These localities were examined in order to improve the age resolution of Pliocene and Pleistocene fossil vertebrate sites in south-eastern Australia. The following age constraints should now be used for these southeastern Australian local faunas: For-syth9s Bank, Kalimnan Stage and >4.42 Ma; Hamilton, Gilbert Chron (4.35-4.42 Ma); Boxlea, Gilbert Chron? (>4.06 Ma); Parwan, Gilbert Chron (4.06-4.20 Ma); Coimadai, Late Gilbert Chron (3.35-3.82 Ma); Fisher-man9s Cliff, Gauss Chron (2.42-2.87 Ma); Bone Gulch, Early Matuyama Chron (1.82-2.42 Ma); Dog Rocks, Early Matuyama Chron (1.82-2.42 Ma); Duck Ponds, Late Matuyama Chron (>0.71 Ma and probably
