However the place record needs to be amended as follows: 1. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE , - amend the text as follows: …… entry for the place prepared in 2011 with additional information published by Salisbury et al (2017). The Dampier Coast dinosaur tracks have………………….. • For the diversity and exceptional sizes of the sauropod prints • The highest diversity of dinosaur tracks anywhere in the world (21 different types); • The only definitive evidence of stegosaurs in Australia; • The first described sauropod tracks in Australia; • Some of the largest dinosaur tracks in the world; • Only evidence of dinosaurs from this time period in Australia (approximately 130 million years ago); • The tracks are linked to the creation Dreamtime stories of the Yawuru indigenous people along the Dampier Peninsula coastline, from Bunginygun (Swan Point, Cape Leveque) to Wabana (Cape Bossut, near Bidyadanga/La Grange) which have been re told over many generations. 2. GRADING A: Exceptional Significance – insert the following text: A place of exceptional cultural and natural heritage significance………. 3. DESCRIPTION – amend the text as follows: The Broome sandstone is exposed continuously for around 200 kilometres on the western coast of Dampier Peninsula, from the bird observatory at Roebuck Bay north to Cape Leveque over at least 100 km of coastline from Gulbunwilla on Roebuck Bay east of Broome north to Minarriny (Coloumb Point), and possibly as far north as Cape Leveque At least 15 21 different types of footprints……….making this one of the most diverse collections of dinosaurian trace fossils in the world. At some sites, Over 70 discrete tracksites have been identified, many of which preserve short sections……….of one or more animals) can be detected. 4. HISTORICAL NOTES - amend text as follows: Included into their stories of the land and its creation, depicting the story of Warragunna, Eagle Hawk. particularly those involving the Emu Man, Marala, who was the Law Giver. One of the first records of non-indigenous knowledge of the tracks was made by journalist and researcher, Daisy Bates is known to have sighted and recorded the track whilst tracks near Broome while she was working at the Beagle Bay Mission in around 1900………. Walter “Snowy’ Jones, who informed Ludwig Glauert, Curator of the WA Museum. .......... The tracks continue to be a rich source of research and analysis for scientists, a link to creation stories for the Yawuru people indigenous people of the Dampier Peninsula and a place of interest for the local community 5. SUPPORTING INFORMATION/BIBLIOGRAPHY – amend text as follows: Dinosaur Coast Management Group Inc. Include the following reference: Salisbury, S.W., Romilio, A., Herne, M.C., Tucker, R.T. and Nair, J.P. 2017. The dinosaurian ichnofauna of the Lower Cretaceous (Valanginian–Barremian) Broome Sandstone of the Walmadany area (James Price Point), Dampier Peninsula, Western Australia.

PHOTOS Place No 73 includes photos of a theropod trackway and sauropod undertracks. Scientists have established at least 21 different types of dinosaurs left tracks along the Dampier Peninsula coastline. These 21 dinosaurs can be assigned to four main groups; sauropod, theropod, ornithopod and thyreophoran. An image of a track from each group would provide a better representation of the diversity and importance of the Broome dinosaurian trace fossils.

  • Monsoon Vine Thickets of the Dampier Peninsula a Summary of Key Findings from the Broome Botanical Society Introduction
    Monsoon Vine Thickets of the Dampier Peninsula A Summary of Key Findings from the Broome Botanical Society Introduction Australian rainforests are fragmented and have a limited range. In the Kimberley, there are only about 7000 hectares of rainforests, less than 0.0001% of the region, yet they contain around 25% of the Kimberley’s plant species. Monsoon vine thickets are just one of many different types Dampier Peninsula of rainforest in Australia, and the network of vine thickets on the Dampier Peninsula forms the southern limit of Derby rainforest in Western Australia. Broome Monsoon vine thickets are culturally significant for Traditional Owners. They are important sources of seasonal fruits and berries, yams, carving timber, Exmouth medicines and accessible ground water. Some vine thicket patches contain culturally sensitive law-grounds. In contrast to other Kimberley and Northern Australian monsoon vine thickets, the Dampier Peninsula’s monsoon vine thickets contain different arrangements of plants and are uniquely found behind and within the swales of coastal sand dunes. Vine thickets are not known to occur where the annual rainfall drops below 600mm. The trees and vines create a dense, shady and protective canopy and are more humid than the open woodlands around them. Monsoon vine thickets are a refuge for many plants and animals and despite only covering less than one tenth of one percent of the Dampier Peninsula they contain nearly a quarter of all plant species found here. Monsoon vine thicket plants depend on frugivorous (fruit-eating) birds, bats and wallabies eating and digesting the seeds and spreading them from one patch to the next.

  • A Better Road for Broome B
    A BETTE NG R DI S L TA I T U E A better road for Broome B O U A I R L P A R L T AN S The Broome-Cape Leveque Road is the main transport link through the Dampier Peninsula FO AU R WESTERN providing essential access to Aboriginal communities, pastoral stations, pearling industries and tourist destinations. The Liberal Government will seal the remaining unsealed sections of road, ensuring there is year-long safe passage along its entire length and creating major new tourism opportunities for Broome operators and Aboriginal cultural tourism. The Liberals support the continued growth of the Western Australian economy by improving the efficiency, safety and reliability of regional roads. Fast Facts • The Broome-Cape Leveque Road is approximately 200km long and provides access to the major Aboriginal communities of Beagle Bay, Lombadina, Djarindjin and One Arm Point, which have an estimated combined population of around 1200 people, as well as many smaller Aboriginal communities. • Between 2002 and 2007 the northernmost 100km section of the road was upgraded and sealed. • Approximatly 90km of the road remains unsealed and has deteriorated, becoming depressed, badly corrugated and potholed, making the road hazardous and subject to lengthy closures during the wet season. • A sealed all-weather road will improve safety, accessibility and operational efficiencies. Opening Opportunities The Dampier Peninsula is an extraordinary place with beaches, unique woodlands, tidal flats and mangrove creeks. Its waters are home to turtles, dugongs, dolphins and whales. Sealing the road will give tourists from Broome safe access to new tourism experiences; gradually open opportunities for Aboriginal communities along the Dampier Peninsula and One Arm Point; and support existing accommodation and cultural tourism enterprises.

Ellis Department of Terrestrial Zoology, Western Australian Museum, Locked Bag 49, Welshpool DC, Western Australia 6986, Australia. Biologic Environmental Survey, 24–26 Wickham St, East Perth, Western Australia 6004, Australia. Email: [email protected] ABSTRACT – The Western Australian Museum holds a vast collection of specimens representing a large portion of the 106 currently recognised taxa of dragon lizards (family Agamidae) known to occur across Australia. While the museum’s collection is dominated by Western Australian species, it also contains a selection of specimens from localities in other Australian states and a small selection from outside of Australia. Currently the museum’s collection contains 18,914 agamid specimens representing 89 of the 106 currently recognised taxa from across Australia and 27 from outside of Australia. This includes 824 type specimens representing 45 currently recognised taxa and three synonymised taxa, comprising 43 holotypes, three syntypes and 779 paratypes. Of the paratypes, a total of 43 specimens have been gifted to other collections, disposed or could not be located and are considered lost. An annotated catalogue is provided for all agamid type material currently and previously maintained in the herpetological collection of the Western Australian Museum. KEYWORDS: type specimens, holotype, syntype, paratype, dragon lizard, nomenclature. INTRODUCTION Australia was named by John Edward Gray in 1825, The Agamidae, commonly referred to as dragon Clamydosaurus kingii Gray, 1825 [now Chlamydosaurus lizards, comprises over 480 taxa worldwide, occurring kingii (Gray, 1825)].

  • Nyikina Paradigms and Refunctionalization: a Cautionary Tale in Morphological Reconstruction
    Nyikina Paradigms and Refunctionalization: A Cautionary Tale in Morphological Reconstruction Claire Bowern Yale University Department of Linguistics PO Box 208366 New Haven, CT 06520, USA [email protected] Ph: +1.203.432.2045 Keywords: morphology, Nyulnyulan, Australian languages, exaptation, reconstruction, analogy 1 Abstract Here I present a case study of change in the complex verb morphology of the Nyikina language of Northwestern Australia. I describe changes which lead to reanalysis of underlying forms while preserving much of the inherited phonological material. The changes presented here do not fit into previous typologies of morphological change. Nyikina lost the distinction between past and present, and in doing so, merged two paradigms into one. The former past tense marker came to be associated with intransitive verb stems. The inflected verbs thus continue inherited material, but in a different function. These changes are most parsimoniously described in a theory of word formation which makes reference to paradigms. 1 Introduction 1.1 Background Many types of change can occur in morphology. Studies such as Anderson (1988) and Koch (1996) identified a series of processes which cause change in morphemes. These include, in addition to regular sound change which operates on fully inflected forms, various types of boundary shift (such as the absorption of material into stems or the reanalysis of one morpheme as two), and analogical changes such as paradigm regularization. Inflectional material can also be lost. Other processes are particularly associated with morphological change in complex paradigms, though by no means exclusively so. These include so-called “hermit-crab” morphology – and the related change of “lost wax” – described by Heath (1997, 1998).

The project was developed to collate existing knowledge of wetlands across the Kimberley region and generate a baseline of information on current threats, uses, cultural and biological values in conjunction with land owners and managers. This project also aimed to provide recommendations on a way forward for planning and management of wetlands in the Kimberley. This is the final project report, and includes: • A summary of the major activities completed under the contract milestones; • A summary of the major findings of the project; • Future recommendations for wetland planning and management in the Kimberley. Information regarding values and threats associated with wetlands in the Kimberley are collated and discussed for each of the 12 catchments. Engaging local people, including Aboriginal custodians, in two way information sharing and problem solving, assisted to build regional and specific information on wetlands.
