[email protected] 2 Centre for Fish & Fisheries Research, Murdoch University, South St, Murdoch, WA 6150. [email protected] Manuscript received September 2007; accepted February 2008 Abstract A paucity of information exists on the fish and crayfish communities of two major rivers that flow into the Leschenault Inlet, south-western Western Australia. This study documents these communities and assesses their ecological significance. During February 2006, seven sites were sampled for fish and freshwater crayfish on each of the Brunswick River and Preston River with additional sites having been previously sampled in the summer of 1999/2000. The rivers generally had similar native fish communities with four endemic species, Freshwater Cobbler, Western Minnow, Western Pygmy Perch and Nightfish making up 60% of all fish captures (2670) with the remaining being from three feral freshwater and six estuarine species. Two native species of freshwater crayfish were also recorded, the Marron and Gilgie. The endemic Western Minnow and Western Pygmy Perch were the most common and widespread native fish species in both rivers. This study recorded what appears to be the Empire Gudgeon in the Preston River; the first record of this northern Australian species in the South-west Drainage Division, and its presence was attributed either to marine larval drift or as a result of an aquarium release. -
Australia's National Programme of Action for the Protection of The
case study 21: the geographe bay region 2 Australia’s National Programme of Action for the Protection of the Marine Environment from Land-Based Activities case study 21: the geographe bay region executive summary The Geographe Bay region, like many other Western Australian coastal areas, is facing the stress of excess nutrient loading to the coastal waterways and the adjacent marine ecosystem. Also like several other regions, the symptoms of this are the highly damaging toxic algal blooms that occur frequently in the fresh and estuarine waters of the region, and the major impacts for agriculture, tourism, public health and biodiversity. These issues were first recognised in the Geographe Bay region in the 1990s, and a community-led process was initiated to develop and implement an integrated catchment management plan designed to reduce nutrient inputs and restore environmental values to their former levels. The catchment management plan is now implemented by Geographe Catchment Council (GeoCatch), a small community-based organisation established for this purpose. The catchment management plan is a voluntary instrument designed to re-orient rural and urban management practices towards more desirable objectives through education and awareness raising, through demonstrated examples of best practice, and through promotion of specific measures for adoption by local and state government agencies. A large number of important strategies have been developed and implemented, and new strategies are being developed. However, although the catchment management plan provides for monitoring and evaluation to be conducted, there appear to be very few examples that demonstrate the success of the plan in facilitating improved catchment health (such as by reducing nutrient loading to rivers or the bay). -

Not only is cycling proven to reduce traffic congestion and improve air quality, it also helps to create more vibrant and welcoming communities. Cycling can facilitate new forms of industry (such as cycle-tourism) and more generally, it enables people to live happier, healthier and more active lives. Fundamentally, increasing cycling mode share is about improving quality of life – something that is critical for attracting and retaining people in regional areas. The key to increasing cycling mode share is The Leeuwin-Naturaliste 2050 Cycling Strategy will providing infrastructure which is not only safe help inform future investment through the Regional and convenient, but also competitive against Bicycle Network Grants Program and potentially other modes of transport. To achieve this, cycling other funding sources. needs to be prioritised ahead of other modes in In developing this strategy, extensive consultation appropriate locations and integrated with adjoining has been undertaken with key stakeholders and land use. -
Aborigines Department
1904. WESTERN AUSTRALIA. ABORIGINES DEPARTMENT. REPORT FOR FINANCIAL YEAH ENDING 30TH JUNE, 1904. Presented to both Houses of Parliament by His Excellency's Command. PERTH: BY AUTHORITY: WM. ALFRED WATSON, GOVERNMENT PRINTER. 1904. No. 20. APPROXIMATE: COST OF PAPER- Printing (600 copied): £82 5s. 9d. Digitised by AIATSIS library 2008- www.aiatsis.gov.au/library ABORIGINES DEPARTMENT. Report for Financial Year ending 80th June, 1904. THE HON. THE COLONIAL SECRETARY. SIR, Perth, 31st August, 1904. I beg to submit my report on the working of the Aborigines Department for the year ended 30th June, 1904, and on the general condition of the aborigines throughout the State as far as civilisation exists. The transactions of the Department have necessitated a larger expenditure than in previous years ; this not only owing to the higher charges that have been made by those who supply relief to the destitute and aged, but also by the increased number of those who require it; the expenditure on the Police Station at La Grange Bay for the year, and some part of the previous year, also swelled the amount. In addition to the statutory vote of £5,000, Parliament last session voted a sum of £6,500, which was £1,500 more than had been voted the previous year. I have, however, found it necessary to ask for an additional sum, during the last months of the year, of £1,465 to enable me to meet all the claims which have been made against me, and which from their nature have been certified to as necessary by my agents throughout the State. -
Aborigines and the Cottesloe Coast
Aborigines and the Cottesloe Coast The following paper was presented by indigenous heritage specialist Ken Macintyre at the Fish Habitat Protection Area (FHPA) Seminar sponsored by Coastcare, in May 2004. It was during mid to late summer, birok , (Dec-Jan) and burnoru (Feb-March) that indigenous people used to frequent a place called Mudurup (pronounced Moodoorup ) which we now know as the Cottesloe coastal strip. The term Mudurup or Moodoorup simply means “place of the yellow-finned whiting” (Sillago schomburgkii). Mudurup Rocks at Cottesloe is a registered Aboriginal site at the Department of Indigenous Affairs. This is one of the most important mythological coastal sites on the Swan Coastal Plain. The earliest records of Aboriginal seasonal patterns of movement on the Swan Coastal Plain are provided by Stirling (1827) who states:... in Summer they frequent the Sea Coast where their skill in spearing fish is truly wonderful. In winter they inhabit the higher grounds, where the Kangaroo, the Opossum, the Land Tortoises, several species of Birds and roots compose their sustenance... (Stirling 1827: 570 quoted by Hallam 1979: 23). There is no doubt that kangaroo, emu and large game were hunted but it would seem that the staple protein of the indigenous people of the Swan Coastal Plain was obtained predominantly from fish, aquatic reptiles and crustaceans found in the lakes, swamps, rivers and coastal estuaries (Macintyre and Dobson 2002). The land-owning group which inhabited the coastal strip between Yanchep and South Fremantle were collectively known as the Mooro . They were a hunter/ gatherer/ fisher group who maintained a small, environmentally sustainable population. -
