Sergio, I think invertebrates were already pretty well evolved into their orders before we finally split 180 mya. So yes, there's lots in common, maybe more that with USA.
Nice one, Martin. Looks like Australia and Brazil have much more in common than one could think!
Thank you Maria
Nice behavioral series!
