  • Index of Dates from Archaeological Sites in Queensland
    INDEX OF DATES FROM ARCHAEOLOGICAL SITES IN QUEENSLAND SEAN ULM AND JILL REID Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Studies Unit, University of Queensland, Brisbane, Queensland, 4072, Australia This volume presents an indexed compilation of chronometric determinations obtained from archaeological sites in the state of Queensland (including Torres Strait), Australia, to the end of 2000. The list includes conventional radiocarbon (14C), accelerator mass spectrometry (AMS), thermoluminescence (TL) and optically-stimulated luminescence (OSL) determinations. In total, 849 dates are listed from 258 sites. This listing is intended as a reference work only and no analysis of the dataset is undertaken in this volume.

KOEHN Cooperative Research Centre for Freshwater Ecology, Arthur Rylah Institute for Environmental Research, Heidelberg, Australia SUMMARY 1. The invasion of carp (Cyprinus carpio L.) in Australia illustrates how quickly an introduced fish species can spread and dominate fish communities. This species has become the most abundant large freshwater fish in south-east Australia, now distributed over more than 1 million km2. 2. Carp exhibit most of the traits predicted for a successful invasive fish species. In addition, degradation of aquatic environments in south-east Australia has given them a relative advantage over native species. 3. Derivation of relative measures of 13 species-specific attributes allowed a quantitative comparison between carp and abundant native fish species across five major Australian drainage divisions. In four of six geographical regions analysed, carp differed clearly from native species in their behaviour, resource use and population dynamics. 4. Climate matching was used to predict future range expansion of carp in Australia.

  • ANTS from THREE REMOTE OCEANIC ISLANDS by ROBERT W. TAYLOR and EDWARD O. WILSON Museum, Wellington, New Zealand, for Making Thes
    ANTS FROM THREE REMOTE OCEANIC ISLANDS By ROBERT W. TAYLOR and EDWARD O. WILSON Biological Laboratories, Harvard University The three islands (Raoul, Clipperton, St. Helena) whose ant faunas are. described below have in common only extreme geographic isolation. That ants occur on them at all confirms the idea that these insects, with man's, help, have now populated every part of the earth capable of supporting them. These and other remote oceanic islands will undoubtedly attract more of the ecologist's attention in the future, since many animal taxa inhabiting them, including most or all of the ant species, have only arrived within historical times and present simple case histories of faunas in the first stages of local adaptation. We are grateful to Dr. J. S. Edwards, Dr. C. F. Harbinson, Mr. Arthur Loveridge and Dr. B. A. Holloway of the Dominion Museum, Wellington, New Zealand, for making these unusual collections available. The study has been supported in part by a research grant from the National Science Foundation. RAOUL ISLAND, KERMADEC ISLANDS The Kermadecs are a group of forest-clad volcanic islands lying in the South Pacitc between S. lat., 29.IO and 31.3o; and W. long., 77.45 and 79.00. The nearest sizable land mass is the North Island of New Zealand, about 650 miles to the southwest, and the nearest major Polynesian island is Tongatabu of the Tongan group, aboiat 700 miles to the north. Australia lies about 1,7oo miles to the west. The ants listed below were taken on Raoul or Sunday Island, the largest of the group (I.25 sq.

  • Questions About Sovereignty Have Received Comparatively Little Attention in Australia
    Macquarie Law Journal (2006) Vol 6 5 REVIVING INDIGENOUS SOVEREIGNTY? HENRY REYNOLDS* Questions about sovereignty have received comparatively little attention in Australia. There seems to be nothing much to be discussed; no contentions to be resolved. Unlike the North American Indians or the Maoris, at the time of the European arrival (and long after it), Australian Aborigines were thought to be without laws and government. There was, then, no need for a treaty or treaties. The tribes could never be considered domestic dependent nations with partial, subsidiary sovereignty. Nor had there been any need, as in America, to deal with prior, competing sovereignties – French, Spanish, Dutch, Russian, Mexican, Hawaiian – by means of conquest, cession or purchase. There were no land borders to dispute and delineate. Local history was reassuringly simple. Australia was a land without a sovereign – a territorium nullius - as well as a land where there was no tenure – a terra nullius. When Britain claimed sovereignty in 1788, 1824, 1829 and 1879, the Crown acquired an original title. She was the first sovereign – the only one there had ever been. What is more the Crown also became the beneficial owner of all the land which Australia comprised. Australia was, then, a continent without either frontiers or foreigners – a place where settlers and indigenous alike became subjects of the Crown. In a poem to the process of colonisation W K Hancock declared in 1930: For six generations they [the settlers] have swarmed inland from the sea, pressing forward to their economic frontiers which are the only frontiers Australia knows1 This passage captures so much about settler attitudes.

TRUST. UNITY. EQUITY. GROWTH. Recent months have seen turbulent times across the Murray-Darling Basin. The future of the Basin Plan is tested amid partisan tensions. Revelations of water theft were met with anger, but not surprise. Scientists question the pace of environmental recovery. And in the absence of a reliable test of social and economic neutrality, the debate over the recovery of the 450GL, and other elements of the sustainable diversion limit rages on. Yet amid this turbulence, there are signs of strength and resilience. Local government is united to support good process delivering better outcomes for communities facing hardship. Agricultural industries are showing signs of adaptation and growth. Regions are working hard to initiate structural adjustment for their local economies. And strong responses from irrigators and legislators are cracking down on the few who would seek to take an unfair advantage. Now, more so than ever before, it is incumbent upon local government to show the leadership, consistency and confidence that will see us through such a dynamic period. With this in mind, the 2018 National Conference of the Murray Darling Association will focus on the future for Basin communities relying on the pillars of trust, unity, equity and growth.
