Sacciolepis (Poaceae, Panicoideae, Paniceae) is a pantropical genus composed by 23 species, mainly distributed in Africa, with some taxa in America, Asia and Australia. The aims of this work are to test the monophyly of Sacciolepis and to explore its infrageneric relationships. Thirty-one taxa and 80 morphological and anatomical characters, including continuous characters, were analyzed under the maximum parsimony criterion. The monophyly of Sacciolepis was corroborated and its diagnostic characters were discusssed. This paper is the first phylogenetic analysis of Sacciolepis. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The debate in Australia about youth wages and youth employment has been underway for a decade. It has generated much heat because no one in their right mind wants to do anything that would harm young people. Many critical aspects of the current situation need illumination, however, for a sensible reform path for youth wages to be found. On close inspection, the case for fundamental reform of youth minimum wage provisions is compelling. Virtually all nations have minimum wage laws. What distinguishes Australia is the system for setting minimum wages. Whereas other countries legislate minimum wage laws directly through parliament, in Australia these are set by independent industrial tribunals.

The article presents an analysis of the legal resources available for the inhabitants of the islands of Torres Strait, Australia, which may help them to deal with the climate change effects on these islands. Several areas of the law are explored including the indigenous people's property rights, human rights, criminal law, and environmental protection laws.
