  • Summary of the Fauna Survey of Witchelina Reserve 22 to 26 April
    Summary of the Fauna Survey of Witchelina Reserve 22 nd to 26 th April 2011 Compiled by Graham Medlin and Peter Matejcic with the Field Naturalists Society of South Australia Inc. (Mammal Club). Email: [email protected] Mobile: 0400292311 Witchelina Reserve was purchased by Nature Foundation SA (NFSA) in 2010 from Australian Government’s Caring for Our Country, State Government and corporate funding totalling $2 million. Previously Witchelina had a 140 year history as a pastoral lease for stock grazing. Witchelina is just over 4,200 square kilometres, 42 x 100km, twice the size of greater Adelaide, and is the largest property ever purchased for the National Reserve System. It provides a fauna corridor linking the bioregions of the upper Flinders, Arkaroola and Gammon Ranges with the lower Lake Eyre and Lake Torrens and Stony Desert bioregions to the west. Witchelina Reserve is northwest of Lyndhurst and south west of Marree, 27 kilometres west of the turnoff to Farina ruins and Farina Station. Visits to Witchelina are by appointment and arrangements can be made through Nature Foundation SA at Hindmarsh. During 2010 a Bush Blitz survey was undertaken by the SA Museum and the Department for Environment and Natural Resources to record the biodiversity within the reserve. This Bush Blitz survey was to identify plant and fauna species within the reserve. Our Field Naturalists Society of SA (Mammal Club) and SA Herpetology Group (SAHG) approached NFSA to undertake a further fauna survey over Easter, April 2011. Our fauna survey was confined to the Witchelina Homestead area due to the short autumn day periods and to reduce daytime travelling over long outback distances.

    Cambridge University Press 978-1-107-03044-2 - How the Snake Lost Its Legs: Curious Tales from the Frontier of Evo-Devo Lewis I. Held Frontmatter More information How the Snake Lost its Legs Curious Tales from the Frontier of Evo-Devo How did the zebra really get its stripes, and the giraffe its long neck? What is the science behind camel humps, leopard spots, and other animal oddities? Such questions have fascinated us for centuries, but the expanding field of evo-devo (evolutionary developmental biology) is now providing, for the first time, a wealth of insights and answers. Taking inspiration from Kipling’s Just So Stories, this book weaves emerging insights from evo-devo into a narrative that provides startling explanations for the origin and evolution of traits across the animal kingdom. The author’s unique and engaging style makes this narrative both enlightening and entertaining, guiding students and researchers through even complex concepts and encouraging a fuller understanding of the latest developments in the field. The first five chapters cover the first bilaterally symmetric animals, flies, butterflies, snakes, and cheetahs. A final chapter surveys recent results about a menagerie of other animals. Lewis I. Held, Jr. is Associate Professor of Biology at Texas Tech University, Lubbock, Texas, USA. He has taught developmental biology and human embryology to pre- medical students for twenty-seven years, and received the 2010 Professing Excellence Award and the 1995 President’s Excellence in Teaching Medal (Texas Tech University). He is also the author of Quirks of Human Anatomy (Cambridge, 2009), Imaginal Discs (Cambridge, 2002), and Models for Embryonic Periodicity (Karger, 1992).

E-mail: [email protected] Abstract: Two large-scale, long-term biodiversity monitoring programs examining vertebrate responses to habitat fragmentation and landscape change in agricultural landscapes are taking place in the Murray Catchment Management Area of New South Wales, south-eastern Australia. Field surveys involve counting reptiles under a range of management conditions and across a broad range of vegetation types in two bioregions, the South-western Slopes of New South Wales and the Riverina. We list reptiles recorded during surveys conducted between 2002 and 2009. We include additional species recorded between 1997 and 2009 from a conservation reserve. Thirty-nine species from nine families were recorded. The list will be useful for workers interested in reptile zoogeographical distributions and habitat associations as well as those interested in the biodiversity value of remnant vegetation and tree plantings in fragmented agricultural landscapes. Introduction disturbance in the region, local extinction of species is Habitat loss and fragmentation is the leading cause of expected to occur.

All rights reserved 20 ABSTRACT 21 Species abundance data are critical for testing ecological theory, but obtaining accurate empirical 22 estimates for many taxa is challenging. Proxies for species abundance can help researchers 23 circumvent time and cost constraints that are prohibitive for long-term sampling. Under simple 24 demographic models, genetic diversity is expected to correlate with census size, such that 25 genome-wide heterozygosity may provide a surrogate measure of species abundance. We tested 26 whether nucleotide diversity is correlated with long-term estimates of abundance, occupancy, 27 and degree of ecological specialization in a diverse lizard community from arid Australia.

  • Reptile & Amphibian Survey 2014
    REPTILES and AMPHIBIANS of the A.A.L.B.G. May, 2014 The reptiles and amphibians found at the Australian Arid Lands Botanic Garden were recorded over the years firstly by a short survey done in February 1991, by persons unknown. This survey comprised of traversing the site on foot, observing and recording sightings of vertebrates. A line of pit fall traps was also set for one week in the chenopod plain and in the sand dunes area. Five mammal species were recorded, eleven reptile species and twenty one bird species. The reptiles recorded were:- Gould’s Goanna Varanus gouldii Bearded Dragon Pogona vitticeps Painted Dragon Ctenophorus pictus Sleepy Lizard Trachydosaurus rugosus = (Tiliqua rugosa aspera) Striped Skink Ctenotus regius Striped Skink Ctenotus brooksi = (Ctenotus taeniatus) Grey’s Skink Menetia greyii Snake-eyed Skink Morethia adelaidensis Broad-banded Sandswimmer Eremiascincus richardsonii Smooth Knob-tailed Gecko Nephrurus levis Legless Lizard Delma nasuta = (Delma butleri) As you can see all reptiles recorded at this time are natives and some of their scientific names have also changed as can be seen in following list. Since development work has commenced at the site more reptiles and amphibians have been observed and recorded. The common Bynoe’s Gecko, Western Brown Snake and Mulga Snake, were of course noted as well as the Trilling Frog, the first amphibian recorded, which also appears on the next list of animals printed for the site. This list has 26 species recorded on it, 15 of them were new opportunistic records. Some were found whilst digging trenches or planting plants in the garden.
