The systematics of the genus Hannia Vari 1978, endemic to freshwater habitats of remote north-western Australia, is revised in light of recent collections in the region and a molecular study of the group that identified an undescribed candidate species. A new freshwater fish species (Hannia wintoni sp. nov) is described based on analysis of multiple nuclear genetic markers (53 allozyme loci), mitochondrial DNA sequence data (601 bp cytochrome b) and morphology (examination of a suite of 66 morphometric and meristic characters). Head profile, postorbital length, maximum length, preopercular spines and pectoral-fin rays are characters that best distinguish H. wintoni sp. nov from its only congener, H. greewayi. While the existing description of H. greenwayi is robust and accurate, we present a number of additional characters that enhance to the original description, based on type and fresh material. Information on the known distribution, habitats and conservation status of the two species is summarised. The new species is a narrow-range endemic.

Iron-redox cycling microorganisms are important for understanding the biogeochemical iron and play key roles in zero-valent iron (ZVI) mediated environmental bioremediation. Their influence on ZVI oxidation coupling with organic contaminant removal is of particular interest but is still poorly understood. The objective of this research was to study microbial redox cycles of iron in ZVI oxidation and deca-brominated diphenyl ether (decaBDE) removal. It was found that iron-oxidizing bacteria (IOB) enhanced ZVI oxidation by using iron as the sole electron donor. Iron-reducing bacteria (IRB) with high activity of Fe (III) reduction, also significantly accelerated rather than inhibited ZVI oxidation. ZVI oxidation activity was increased from 3.42% to 2428% by IOB and 19.49% by IRB. When deca-BDE was present in the medium, ZVI oxidation activity by IOB and IRB was increased from 2.67% to 48.33% and 64.33%, respectively. However, no co-accelerating effect of IOB and IRB occurred but rather a neutralizing influence on ZVI oxidation was detected with iron-redox cycling bacteria (IORB). ZVI oxidation activity by IORB only increased to 13.14% and 37.0% in the absence and presence of deca-BDE, respectively. Meanwhile, IRB also exhibited the highest removal activity of deca-BDE. Approximately 71.67% of deca-BDE was removed by IRB, compared to 18.91% by IOB and 4324% by IORB. Deca-BDE significantly influenced the effects of iron-metabolizing microorganisms on ZVI oxidation by altering the composition of microbial communities. Pseudomonas, Paenibacillus, and Sporolactobacillus were the key genera influencing ZVI oxidation and deca-BDE removal. Sporolactobacillus was firstly reported to be able to stimulate both ZVI oxidation and deca-BDE removal. Pseudomonas accelerated ZVI oxidation but had no significant contribution to deca-BDE removal. However, Paeni bacillus inhibited both Fe(III) reduction and deca-BDE removal. It is expected that continuous integration of ZVI oxidation and organic contaminant removal can be achieved by regulating the key genera in iron-metabolizing microbial communities.
