Southern boobook taxa (southern plus Tasmanian boobooks and moreporks) as a single species. Examining both morphological and genetic (cytochrome b) characters in 2008, German biologist Michael Wink and colleagues concluded that the southern boobook is distinct from the morepork and Tasmanian boobook (which they proposed to be raised to species status as "Ninox leucopsis"), and that it is instead the sister taxon to the barking owl ("N. connivens"). A 2017 study by Singapore-based biologist Chyi Yin Gwee and colleagues analysing both multi-locus DNA and boobook calls confirmed a sister relationship of "N. n. novaeseelandiae" and "N." ("n.") "leucopsis" and their close relationship
Australasian Society of Clinical Immunology and Allergy Australasian Society of Clinical Immunology and Allergy The Australasian Society of Clinical Immunology and Allergy is a professional body of clinical immunologists, allergy specialists and immunology scientists in New Zealand and Australia that aims to "advance the science and practice of clinical immunology and allergy, by promoting education and the highest standard of ethical medical practice." It was formed in 1991 by the merging of the Australian College of Allergy with the Australasian Society of Immunology Clinical Immunology Group. It publishes guidelines and position statements on the management of allergies and sensitivities, provides in-person and online training, and hosts conferences.
