  • 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).

LONDON: PRINTED BY WILLIAM CLOWES AND SONS, LIMIT«D, s·rAMFORD STRmtf AND CHARING CROSS. PREFACE. I:-.l" a few pages it is proposed to give a general outline of the rise and progress of the Colony of Western Australia, the largest and the least known and the least populated of the Australian group. For these reasons it is al o the most important from the point of view of the intending Colonist, who naturally desires to settle where there is still an unworked field for his energies, and where he may be practically a pioneer, rather than a wage-earning competitor against the thousands who have preceded him, as is too often the case with those who emigrate to America, or even to the large centres of population in the Eastern Colonies of Australia. Western Australia includes all that enormous extent of terri­ tory lying west of the I29° meridian of east longitude up to I I 3° I 5', and from I 3° 45' to 3 5° 5' south latitude, its extreme length being from south to north I,z8o miles, and its breadth from cast to west 8oo miles.

    HALLS CREEK WATER RESERVE WATER SOURCE PROTECTION PLAN Halls Creek Town Water Supply Important information The Halls Creek Water Reserve water source protection plan (2002, WRP no.48) was reviewed in 2012. Please ensure you read the Halls Creek drinking water source protection review (2012, WRP no.123) alongside the 2002 plan to obtain all of the information about this drinking water source. The 2012 review considers changes that have occurred in and around the Halls Creek Water Reserve since the completion of the 2002 Halls Creek water source protection plan. The addition of seven new bores will require wellhead protection zones. Additional recommendations have been prepared to ensure the ongoing protection of this public drinking water source area.

  • THE DISCOVERY of the EAST KIMBERLEY GOLDFIELD 1885 at the Kimberley Society's Meeting of 2 March 2005, a Large Audience Heard
    THE DISCOVERY OF THE EAST KIMBERLEY GOLDFIELD 1885 At the Kimberley Society’s meeting of 2 March 2005, a large audience heard from Dr Phillip Playford, an experienced geologist and an avid researcher and writer in the field of history. His summary of his beautifully illustrated talk follows. In the mid 1800s Western Australia was the poor sister of the other Australian colonies. It regarded with envy the wealth generated by the major gold discoveries that had been made in the eastern colonies. As a result, the WA Government decided in 1872 to offer a reward of £5,000 for the discovery of the colony’s first payable goldfield. The Kimberley gold story began with the exploring expedition of Alexander Forrest in 1879. He traversed the district from west to east into the Northern Territory, and on reaching the Pine Creek mining centre he commented to the manager, Adam Johns, on similarities between the rocks at Pine Creek and those seen by his party in the Kimberley. This inspired Johns to mount an expedition to the area, with his mate Phil Saunders as party leader. They sailed from Darwin to Cossack and set out for the Kimberley in April 1882. Saunders found traces of gold in the headwaters of the Ord River, and reported this in a telegram to the W.A. Colonial Secretary, indicating that payable gold could probably be found in the area. There was debate in the WA Legislative Council as to the best way of following up this report. It was eventually decided to appoint Edward T Hardman, a geologist from the Irish Geological Survey, to join John Forrest’s survey expedition to the West Kimberley in 1883.

  • A Baseline Distributional Description of Introduced Redclaw Crayfish Cherax Quadricarinatus (Von Martens) in the East Kimberley Region
    Journal of the Royal Society of Western Australia, 90: 215-218, 2007 Where are they now? A baseline distributional description of introduced redclaw crayfish Cherax quadricarinatus (von Martens) in the east Kimberley region RGDoupe Fish Health Unit, Centre for Fish and Fisheries Research, Murdoch University, Murdoch, WA 6150. Present address: Australian Centre for Tropical Freshwater Research, James Cook University, Qld 4811. ~ [email protected] Manuscript received July 2007; accepted September 2007 Abstract A trapping survey in the wider Ord River catchment and adjacent river systems of the east Kimberley region between August and December 2006, failed to extend the distributional range of redclaw crayfish beyond Lake Kununurra, where it was first introduced in 1998. These findings suggest an opportunity remains for its control. Keywords: redclaw crayfish; Cherax quadricarinatus; introduced species; translocation, Kimberley Introduction focussed on those waterways and fishing areas that are most readily accessible, and particularly by recreational In 2000, redclaw crayfish Cherax quadricarinatus (von anglers, because Australian Quarantine Inspection Martens) were first found in Lake Kununurra on the Ord Service personnel occasionally confiscate redclaw River, and their introduction is the first recording of any crayfish from fishermen attempting to bring these freshwater crayfish species in Western Australia's animals from the adjacent Northern Territory for use as Kimberley region (Doupe et al. 2004). Redclaw crayfish bait (Doupe et al. 2004). At each site (see Table 1 for are a tropical species with a pre-European distribution details) I set 20- 50 box-style (or opera house) crayfish thought to be confined to far northern Queensland and traps baited with poultry pellets in replicate sets among the northern and eastern parts of the Northern Territory recognizably different microhabitats for three consecutive (Riek 1969).
