Tuhinga 17, 2006, contains seven articles covering insects, mites, artefacts, earthquake mitigation in museum exhibitions, flatworms and the Kaipara mullet fishery. Two articles are about Deraeocorini – one describes a new genus and four new species, the other gives an overview of New Zealand Deraeocorinae. One paper is about two new feather mite species and another looks at whale teeth artefacts in the western Solomon Islands. The strength of two waxes are compared for securing objects against earthquake damage. One article is about new and revised terrestrial flatworm taxa and another investigates the Kaipara mullet fishery and nineteenth-century management issues.
