The plan has been developed with the involvement and cooperation of a broad range of stakeholders, but individual stakeholders have not necessarily committed to undertaking specific actions. The attainment of objectives and the provision of funds may be subject to budgetary and other constraints affecting the parties involved. Proposed actions may be subject to modification over the life of the plan due to changes in knowledge. This plan should be cited as follows: Benshemesh, J. (2007).

the Malleefowl Leipoa ocellata is listed as Vulnerable under the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation (EPBC) Act 1999 and this classification is consistent with international standards (IUCN 2001, criteria VU A1c,e and A2b,c,e). The Malleefowl occurs in all mainland states except Queensland and is recognised as threatened wherever it occurs. The species is listed as Critically Endangered in the Northern Territory, Endangered in New South Wales and Victoria, Vulnerable in South Australia, and as Fauna That Is Rare Or Is Likely To Become Extinct in Western Australia. Habitat requirements and limiting factors The Malleefowl is found in semi-arid to arid shrublands and low woodlands, especially those dominated by mallee and/or acacias. A sandy substrate and abundance of leaf litter are required for breeding. Densities of the birds are generally greatest in areas

  • Some Principles of the Use of Macro-Areas Language Dynamics &A
    Online Appendix for Harald Hammarstr¨om& Mark Donohue (2014) Some Principles of the Use of Macro-Areas Language Dynamics & Change Harald Hammarstr¨om& Mark Donohue The following document lists the languages of the world and their as- signment to the macro-areas described in the main body of the paper as well as the WALS macro-area for languages featured in the WALS 2005 edi- tion. 7160 languages are included, which represent all languages for which we had coordinates available1. Every language is given with its ISO-639-3 code (if it has one) for proper identification. The mapping between WALS languages and ISO-codes was done by using the mapping downloadable from the 2011 online WALS edition2 (because a number of errors in the mapping were corrected for the 2011 edition). 38 WALS languages are not given an ISO-code in the 2011 mapping, 36 of these have been assigned their appropri- ate iso-code based on the sources the WALS lists for the respective language. This was not possible for Tasmanian (WALS-code: tsm) because the WALS mixes data from very different Tasmanian languages and for Kualan (WALS- code: kua) because no source is given. 17 WALS-languages were assigned ISO-codes which have subsequently been retired { these have been assigned their appropriate updated ISO-code. In many cases, a WALS-language is mapped to several ISO-codes. As this has no bearing for the assignment to macro-areas, multiple mappings have been retained. 1There are another couple of hundred languages which are attested but for which our database currently lacks coordinates.

  • Greater Bilby Macrotis Lagotis
    Threatened Species Strategy – Year 3 Priority Species Scorecard (2018) Greater Bilby Macrotis lagotis Key Findings Greater Bilbies once ranged over three‑ quarters of Australia, but declined coincident with the spread of European foxes, along with habitat changes from introduced herbivores (especially rabbits), changed fire regimes and predation by feral cats. Recovery actions have focused on maintaining or restoring traditional Indigenous patchwork fire regimes and controlling introduced predators. Translocations into predator-free exclosures and a predator-free island have allowed for further increases in population and re- establishment into the species’ former range. Photo: Queensland Department of Environment and Science Significant trajectory change from 2005-15 to 2015-18? No, generally stable overall. Priority future actions • Effective landscape-scale fire management is implemented across all of distribution. • Targeted cat and rabbit control at key bilby sites. • Minimise loss of bilby habitat, and maintain connectivity between bilby populations.

Case Summaries Quall v Northern Land Council [2018] FCA 989 29 June 2018, Practice and Procedure, Federal Court of Australia – Northern Territory, Reeves J In this matter the Court declared that the first respondent, the Northern Land Council (NLC), had not certified an application for the registration of the Indigenous Land Use Agreement (ILUA) in accordance with s 24CG(3)(a) of the Native Title Act 1993 (Cth) (NTA), and in performance of its functions as a representative body under s 203BE(1)(b) of the NTA. The ILUA was dated 21 July 2016 and amended by a Deed of Variation dated 2 February 2017, known as the Kenbi ILUA. The Court ordered that the first respondent pay the applicant’s costs. The applicant was Mr Kevin Quall. The respondents to the claim were the Northern Land Council, and Joe Morrison as Chief Executive Officer of the Northern Land Council. The NLC had submitted a certification of the ILUA which was signed by Mr Joe Morrison, acting in his capacity as CEO of NLC. The issue was not with the contents of this agreement, but whether the CEO could validly sign the certification of the agreement and therefore meet the requirements of s 203 BE(1)(b) NTA.

TARNANTHI is a platform for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander artists from across the country to share important stories through contemporary art. TARNANTHI is a national event held annually by the Art Gallery of South Australia. Although TARNANTHI at AGSA is annual, biannually TARNANTHI turns into a city-wide festival and hosts hundreds of artists across multiple venues across Adelaide.

    Fauna facts Get to know Western Australia’s fauna Mal leefowl What is a malleefowl? A malleefowl is a bird about the size of a large chicken that lives on the ground and rarely flies.

Photo: Nye Evans Scientific Name: Leipoa ocellata What do they look and sound like? Other Common Names: gnow, nganamara, lowan, They can be very hard to spot because they native pheasant, incubator or thermometer bird camouflage so well with their natural environment.

He was educated at King Edward's School, Birmingham, and Trinity College, Cambridge (B.A. 1905, M. A. 1909), graduating with first class honours in the moral sciences tripos. He studied psychology under W. H. R. Rivers, who, with A. C. Haddon, led him towards social anthropology. Elected Anthony Wilkin student in ethnology in 1906 (and 1909), he spent two years in the field in the Andaman Islands. A fellow of Trinity (1908 - 1914), he lectured twice a week on ethnology at the London School of Economics and visited Paris where he met Emily Durkheim. At Cambridge on 19 April 1910 he married Winifred Marie Lyon; they were divorced in 1938. Radcliffe-Brown (then known as AR Brown) joined E. L. Grant Watson and Daisy Bates in an expedition to the North-West of Western Australia studying the remnants of Aboriginal tribes for some two years from 1910, but friction developed between Brown and Mrs. Bates. Brown published his research from that time in an article titled “Three Tribes of Western Australia”, The Journal of the Royal Anthropological Institute of Great Britain and Ireland, Vol. 43, (Jan. - Jun., 1913), pp. 143-194. At the 1914 meeting of the British Association for the Advancement of Science in Melbourne, Daisy Bates accused Brown of gross plagiarism.
