Collection Name: Halls Creek Shire Register Pictorial collection name: Halls Creek Shire Register. A Photographic History 1993. Volume 7 Collection number: BA1343/12 Collection Item Photographer Caption Description Provided by Date No. No. Donor BA1343/12 /1 Derek Keene Scenic view Halls Creek This lovely river scene is 1993 Shire of the Black Elvire River, 40 kilometers [sic] from Halls Creek on the Duncan Road. After the wet season is over the river becomes a very popular place for locals as a fishing and swimming facility, and just a few kilometers upstream is the famous Sawtooth Gorge. BA1343/12 /2 Derek Keene Halls Creek Police Force This year was extremely 1993 difficult to get all police officers together for the annual photo and in the end I had to be content with just six members of our local force. One consolation was that I was able to take the photo in front of Halls Creek new prison. The officers in this photo are: Terry Dobson 6453 Senior Constable, Trevor Fisher 8384 First Class Constable, Murray Guerin 7510 First Class Constable, Charles Moylan 7009 Senior Constable, Colin Murray 5498 Sergeant, Shayne Williams 143 Police Aide.

To compile a comprehensive profile of the contemporary social environment of the East Kimberley region utilising both existing information sources and limited fieldwork. 2. Develop and utilise appropriate methodological approaches to social impact assessment within a multi-disciplinary framework. 3. Assess the social impact of major public and private developments of the East Kimberley region's resources (physical, mineral and environmental) on resident Aboriginal communities. Attempt to identify problems/issues which, while possibly dormant at present, are likely to have implications that will affect communities at some stage in the future. 4. Establish a framework to allow the dissemination of research results to Aboriginal communities so as to enable them to develop their own strategies for dealing with social impact issues. 5. To identify in consultation with Governments and regional interests issues and problems which may be susceptible to further research.

As a consquence, all species can be distinguished without regarding of genitalic characters, when compar- ison with related species is possible. Unlike typical odacanthine beetles, species of Porocara live in pure wet sand of rivers and larger creeks near water, where during daytime they are buried in the sand or under stones and boulders. At night they come out of their holes to forage around the pools. 1 never found them in dry river or creek beds far away from water. The yellow or light reddish colouration matches very well the colour of the sand, and the elytral pattern is in all species rather inconspicuous, except for fully coloured specimens of P. nigricollis, and it serves as a purpose to obscure the body shape. Only in P. nigricolUs of far Northern Territory that is a species of the füll wet tropical zone the colour pattern is more accentuate and may be regarded an example of Gloger's rule. Material This second revision is based on altogether 90 additional specimens representing 5 taxa (excluding P. p. punctata and P. glabmta) from my own recent collections in far northern and northwestern Austral- ia, my collections in the Hamersley area in 1987, the Museum and Art Gallery of the Northern Territory, Darwin, and a small collection from northwestern Australia kindly received from Miss S.

  • Western Australia a History from Its Discovery to the Inauguration of the Commonwealth
    WESTERN AUSTRALIA A HISTORY FROM ITS DISCOVERY TO THE INAUGURATION OF THE COMMONWEALTH BY J.S. BATTYE, LITT.D. PUBLIC LIBRARIAN OF WESTERN AUSTRALIA. OXFORD AT THE CLARENDON PRESS 1924. OXFORD UNIVERSITY PRESS LONDON, EDINBURGH, GLASGOW, COPENHAGEN, NEW YORK, TORONTO, MELBOURNE, CAPE TOWN, BOMBAY, CALCUTTA, MADRAS, SHANGHAI. HUMPHREY MILFORD PUBLISHER TO THE UNIVERSITY. PREFACE. In view of the prominent part taken by Australia in the recent war, and the enthusiasm which the achievements of the Australian Forces have aroused throughout the Empire, the story of one of the great States of the Australian Commonwealth may not be without some general interest. The work has been the result of over twenty years' research, undertaken, in the first instance, in conjunction with the Registrar-General (Mr. M.A.C. Fraser) and his Deputy (Mr. W. Siebenhaar) for the purpose of checking the historical introduction to the Year Book of Western Australia. It has since been continued in the hope that it may prove a contribution of more or less value to the history of colonial development. In the prosecution of the work, the files of the Public Record Office, London, were searched, and copies made of all documents that could be found which related to the establishment and early years of the colony. These copies are now in the possession of the Public Library of Western Australia, which contains also most of the published matter in the way of books and pamphlets dealing with the colony, as well as almost complete files of the local newspapers to date, and the original records of the Colonial Secretary's Office up to 1876.

E-mail: [email protected] Abstract – Tasmanitachoides mandibularis sp. nov. is described from the eastern margin of the Kimberley Division, north-western Western Australia. The new species is most similar to T. obliquiceps (Sloane) from eastern Australia, but is distinguished by its smaller size, shorter and wider elytra, less distinct elytral striation, longer and more conspicuous pilosity on the upper surface, and finely punctate pronotum. The new species is inserted in the most recent key to the genus Tasmanitachoides. Keywords – taxonomy, new species, Kimberley Division, Western Australia, Tasmanitachoides INTRODUCTION shape and surface structure, and therefore is herein The carabid fauna of Australia is highly diverse described as a new species. with representatives of 36 subfamilies, about 300 genera, and almost 2,600 species and subspecies MATERIALS AND METHODS (Moore et al. 1987; Baehr, unpublished checklist).

  • Birds of the Kimberley Division, Western Australia
    WESTERN AUSTRALIAN MUSEUM SPECIAL PUBLICATION No.ll Birds of the Kimberley Division, Western Australia by G.M. Slorr Perth 1980 World List Abbreviation: Spec. PubIs West. Aust. Mus. ISBN 0724481389 ISSN 0083 873X Cover: A Comb-crested Jacana drawn by Gaye Roberts. Published by the Western Australian Museum, Francis Street, Perth 6000, Western Australia. Phone 328 4411. 4 TABLE OF CONTENTS Page Introduction 7 List of Birds .................................... .. 9 Gazetteer ................................. .. 101 Index 105 5 INTRODUCTION Serventy and Whittell's excellent Birds of Western Australia (first published in 1948) excluded the many species found in Western Australia only in the Kimberley Division. The far north of the State thus remained the last terra incognita in Australia. The present paper fills this gap by providing informa­ tion on the distribution, ecological status, relative abundance, habitat preferences, movements and breeding season of Kimberley birds. Coverage is much the same as in my List of Northern Territory birds (1967, Spec. PubIs West. Aust. Mus. no. 4), List of Queensland birds (1973, Spec. PubIs West. Aust. Mus. no. 5) and Birds of the Northern Territory (1977, Spec. PubIs West. Aust. Mus. no. 7). An innovation is data on clutch size. The area covered by this paper is the Kimberley Land Division (Le. that part of Western Australia north of lat. 19°30'S) and the seas and islands of the adjacent continental shelf, including specks of land, such as Ashmore Reef, that are administered by the Commonwealth of Australia. Distribution is often given in climatic as well as geographic terms by referring to the subhumid zone (mean annual rainfall 100-150 cm), semiarid zone (50-100 cm) or arid zone (less than 50 cm).
