    Conservation Advice and Transferred This Species from the Endangered to Vulnerable Category, Effective from 04/07/2019

    THREATENED SPECIES SCIENTIFIC COMMITTEE Established under the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999 The Minister approved this conservation advice and transferred this species from the Endangered to Vulnerable category, effective from 04/07/2019 Conservation Advice Litoria dayi (Lace-eyed Tree Frog) Taxonomy Conventionally accepted as Litoria dayi (Gunther 1897). Litoria dayi (Lace-eyed Tree Frog) was recently transferred to the genus Litoria from the genus Nyctimystes after Kraus (2013) showed that it did not meet the morphological characteristics for assignment to that genus (Cogger 2014). Summary of assessment Conservation status Vulnerable: Criterion 2 B1 and B2 (a),(b)(i,ii) The highest category for which Litoria dayi is eligible to be listed is Vulnerable. Litoria dayi has been found to be eligible for listing under the following categories: Criterion 2: B1 and B2 (a),(b)(i,ii): Vulnerable Litoria dayi has been found to be eligible for listing under the Vulnerable category. The species was eligible for listing under the Environmental Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act (1999) (EPBC Act) as on 16 July 2000 it was listed as Endangered under Schedule 1 of the preceding Act, the Endangered Species Protection Act 1992 (Cwlth). Following a formal review of the listing status of the Lace-eyed Tree Frog, the Threatened Species Scientific Committee (the Committee) has determined that there is evidence that the species has stabilised but has not undergone any demonstrable recovery since being listed; and that there is sufficient evidence to support a change of status of the species to Vulnerable under the EPBC Act but not to delist the species.

    A Re-Examination of William Hann´S Northern Expedition of 1872 to Cape York Peninsula, Queensland

    CSIRO PUBLISHING Historical Records of Australian Science, 2021, 32, 67–82 https://doi.org/10.1071/HR20014 A re-examination of William Hann’s Northern Expedition of 1872 to Cape York Peninsula, Queensland Peter Illingworth TaylorA and Nicole Huxley ACorresponding author. Email: [email protected] William Hann’s Northern Expedition set off on 26 June 1872 from Mount Surprise, a pastoral station west of Townsville, to determine the mineral and agricultural potential of Cape York Peninsula. The expedition was plagued by disharmony and there was later strong criticism of the leadership and its failure to provide any meaningful analysis of the findings. The authors (a descendent of Norman Taylor, expedition geologist, and a descendent of Jerry, Indigenous guide and translator) use documentary sources and traditional knowledge to establish the role of Jerry in the expedition. They argue that while Hann acknowledged Jerry’s assistance to the expedition, his role has been downplayed by later commentators.

    Conservation Advice Litoria Dayi Lace-Eyed Tree Frog

    THREATENED SPECIES SCIENTIFIC COMMITTEE Established under the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999 The Minister’s delegate approved this Conservation Advice on 13/07/2017. Conservation Advice Litoria dayi lace-eyed tree frog Conservation Status Litoria dayi (lace-eyed tree frog) is listed as Endangered under the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999 (Cwlth) (EPBC Act) effective 16 July 2000. The species is eligible for listing under the EPBC Act as on 16 July 2000 it was listed as Endangered under Schedule 1 of the preceding Act, the Endangered Species Protection Act 1992 (Cwlth). Species can also be listed as threatened under state and territory legislation. For information on the current listing status of this species under relevant state or territory legislation, see http://www.environment.gov.au/cgi-bin/sprat/public/sprat.pl . The main factor that was the cause of the species being eligible for listing in the Endangered category was a dramatic range contraction with an observed reduction in population size of greater than 50 percent. Populations are no longer present at altitudes greater than 300 m, likely due to chytridiomycosis (Hero et al. 2004). This species’ status under the EBPC Act is currently being reviewed as part of a species expert assessment plan for frogs. Description The lace-eyed tree frog was recently transferred to the genus Litoria from the genus Nyctimystes after Kraus (2013) showed that it did not meet the morphological characteristics for assignment to that genus (Cogger 2014). This species is a small to medium sized frog growing to 50 mm in snout-to-vent length.

  • The Aboriginal Miners and Prospectors of Cape York Peninsula 1870 to Ca.1950S

    The Aboriginal Miners and Prospectors of Cape York Peninsula 1870 to Ca.1950S

    Journal of Australasian Mining History, Vol. 16, October 2018 The Aboriginal miners and prospectors of Cape York Peninsula 1870 to ca.1950s By GALIINA ELLWOOD James Cook University t is a common assumption among many Australian historians that frontier violence between Aboriginal peoples and colonisers was the norm. This, it is believed, was I inevitably followed by resistance to invasion being subsequently crushed over varying periods of time and the remnant of traditional owners being then assimilated into the lowest rung of the European culture and economy, while being deprived of their civil rights by ‘protection’ Acts.1 This is true of some times and places, but is not true everywhere, and particularly not on Queensland’s Cape York Peninsula where Aboriginal people were miners and prospectors of importance to the Queensland economy. So important were they that officials were apt to wink at their independence from government controls, an attitude helped by the isolation of the area from the control of officials in the bigger towns and Brisbane. Aboriginal prospectors and miners in the area found goldfields and tinfields, mined for tin, gold and wolfram either by themselves, for an employer, or with a white ‘mate’. Further, they owned or worked mills and prospecting drill plants, and undertook ancillary activities such as hauling supplies. What is more, their families have continued mining up to the present day. Despite their considerable role in the industry, they have been written out of the mining history of Cape York, a trend which has unfortunately continued up to today. This article, along with earlier work2 is intended to redress the omission.
  • Some Aboriginal Walking Tracks and Camp Sites in the Douglas Shire, North Qwensland

    Some Aboriginal Walking Tracks and Camp Sites in the Douglas Shire, North Qwensland

    SOME ABORIGINAL WALKING TRACKS AND CAMP SITES IN THE DOUGLAS SHIRE, NORTH QWENSLAND C. R. ncCRA- Mssmn, North &eensland INTRODUCTION The Douglas Shire is a small coastal shire in the wet tropics of North Queensland, lying between Buchan Point in the south and Bloomfield in the north (Figure 1 ) . It is dominated by steep rainf orest-covered mountains with a narrow coastal strip, rising from sea level to 1370m in only 6km. Annual rainfall varies from lOOOmm in the south to 3750mm in the north. It is a very well watered district with four main rivers and several good creeks, -all of which are very fast-f lowing. Before clearing began, two-thirds of the Shire'was under heavy tropical rainforest, the other third was timbered grassland (eucalypt and wattle) with some*melaleuca and mangrove swamps. There are also beaches, sand ridges, mangrove-lined rivers and creeks, and some salt pans. My interest in Aboriginal walking tracks in this region began in the 1920's, when I was a young lad. We lived on a farm on the banks of the South Mossman River where we often met local Aborigines, the men all carrying their spears wherever they went. Sometimes there were strangers with them who said they came from Kuranda, Bloomfield, Daintree or other distant places. There were no direct koads to these , places that we knew of and we learnt that they used their own walking tracks. As a pig hunter around cane farina, I often saw such tracks in the rainforest and at time? used them for access to cleared land.
