  • A Further Break-Up of the Australian Gecko Genus
    Australasian Journal of Herpetology 3 Australasian Journal of Herpetology 34:3-35. ISSN 1836-5698 (Print) Published 20 July 2017. ISSN 1836-5779 (Online) A further break-up of the Australian gecko genus Oedura Gray, 1842 sensu lato as currently recognized, from four to seven genera, with two new subgenera defined, description of fourteen new species, four new subspecies and formalising of one tribe and five subtribes. RAYMOND T. HOSER 488 Park Road, Park Orchards, Victoria, 3134, Australia. Phone: +61 3 9812 3322 Fax: 9812 3355 E-mail: snakeman (at) snakeman.com.au Received 15 January 2017, Accepted 20 May 2017, Published 20 July 2017. ABSTRACT The genus Oedura Gray, 1842 sensu lato has been the subject of numerous taxonomic reviews in recent years. These have resulted in division of the genus into deeply divergent, but distantly related groups at the genus level as well as numerous new species being formally named. In light of the preceding and including results of molecular studies indicating significant divergence between species groups within Oedura as recognized in 2012 and 2016, the genus as recognized prior to 2012 is further divided to become seven (from four in 2016). These all have known divergences well in excess of 15 MYA, making genus-level subdivision inevitable. Divergent subgenera with divergences in the order of 13-15 MYA are also formally named for the first time. Within this new generic arrangement, fourteen new species are formally described for the first time in accordance with the International Code of Zoological Nomenclature (Ride et al. 1999) on the basis of obvious morphological differences from similar species, which they have been treated as until now and also based on the known genetic divergences ascertained from earlier cited literature, all of which are measured in the millions of years (2.5 MYA or more).

PhD thesis, James Cook University. Access to this file is available from: http://eprints.jcu.edu.au/19007 Beyond Abundance: The direct and indirect effects of predation in a terrestrial trophic web Thesis submitted by Carryn Manicom BSc (Hons) University of Cape Town March 2010 for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the School of Marine and Tropical Biology James Cook University Clockwise from top: The study site at Ramsey Bay, Hinchinbrook Island, picture taken from Nina Peak towards north; juvenile Carlia storri; varanid access study plot in Melaleuca woodland; spider Argiope aethera wrapping a march fly; mating pair of Carlia rubrigularis; male Carlia rostralis eating huntsman spider (Family Sparassidae). C. Manicom i Abstract We need to understand the mechanism by which species interact in food webs to predict how natural ecosystems will respond to disturbances that affect species abundance, such as the loss of top predators. The study of predator-prey interactions and trophic cascades has a long tradition in ecology, and classical views have focused on the importance of lethal predator effects on prey populations (direct effects on density), and the indirect transmission of effects that may cascade through the system (density-mediated indirect interactions). However, trophic cascades can also occur without changes in the density of interacting species, due to non-lethal predator effects on prey traits, such as behaviour (trait-mediated indirect interactions). Studies of direct and indirect predation effects have traditionally considered predator control of herbivore populations; however, top predators may also control smaller predators.

  • Australian Society of Herpetologists
    1 THE AUSTRALIAN SOCIETY OF HERPETOLOGISTS INCORPORATED NEWSLETTER 48 Published 29 October 2014 2 Letter from the editor This letter finds itself far removed from last year’s ASH conference, held in Point Wolstoncroft, New South Wales. Run by Frank Lemckert and Michael Mahony and their team of froglab strong, the conference featured some new additions including the hospitality suite (as inspired by the Turtle Survival Alliance conference in Tuscon, Arizona though sadly lacking of the naked basketball), egg and goon race and bouncing castle (Simon’s was a deprived childhood), as well as the more traditional elements of ASH such as the cricket match and Glenn Shea’s trivia quiz. May I just add that Glenn Shea wowed everyone with his delightful skin tight, anatomically correct, and multi-coloured, leggings! To the joy of everybody in the world, the conference was opened by our very own Hal Cogger (I love you Hal). Plenary speeches were given by Dale Roberts, Lin Schwarzkopf and Gordon Grigg and concurrent sessions were run about all that is cutting edge in science and herpetology. Of note, award winning speeches were given by Kate Hodges (Ph.D) and Grant Webster (Honours) and the poster prize was awarded to Claire Treilibs. Thank you to everyone who contributed towards an update and Jacquie Herbert for all the fantastic photos. By now I trust you are all preparing for the fast approaching ASH 2014, the 50 year reunion and set to have many treats in store. I am sad to not be able to join you all in celebrating what is sure to be, an informative and fun spectacle.

ABSTRACT The Genus Egernia Gray, 1838 has been defined and redefined by many authors since the time of original description. Defined at its most conservative is perhaps that diagnosis in Cogger (1975) and reflected in Cogger et al. (1983), with the reverse (splitters) position being that articulated by Wells and Wellington (1985). They resurrected available genus names and added to the list of available names at both genus and species level. Molecular methods have largely confirmed the taxonomic positions of Wells and Wellington (1985) at all relevant levels and their legally available ICZN nomenclature does as a matter of course follow from this. However petty jealousies and hatred among a group of would-be herpetologists called the Wüster gang (as detailed by Hoser 2015a-f and sources cited therein) have forced most other publishing herpetologists since the 1980’s to not use anything Wells and Wellington. Therefore the most commonly “in use” taxonomy and nomenclature by published authors does not reflect the taxonomic reality. This author will not be unlawfully intimidated by Wolfgang Wüster and his gang of law-breaking thugs using unscientific methods to destabilize zoology as encapsulated in the hate rant of Kaiser et al.
