Proposed Palaeozoic APWP for Gondwana, based on the Australian APWP of Fig. 14. For comparison, means of apparently reliable poles from Australia and other continents, as calculated by McElhinny & McFadden (2000), are plotted, with corresponding mean ages juxtaposed: (a) mean poles from Australia, (b) Africa, (c) South America (d) Gondwana (combined). The Gondwana reconstruction is according to Lottes & Rowley (1990).
