  • Litoria Citropa)
    Herpetology Notes, volume 14: 803-808 (2021) (published online on 26 May 2021) Photo identification of individual Blue Mountains Tree Frogs (Litoria citropa) Jordann Crawford-Ash1,2,* and Jodi J.L. Rowley1,2 Abstract. We used a Photo Identification Method (PIM) to identify individuals of the Blue Mountains Tree Frog, Litoria citropa. By matching the body markings on photographs taken in the field of the lateral, dorsal and anterior views of the frog, we were able to re-match two individuals; one after 88 days and the other after 45 days. We present the first evidence that photo identification is likely to be a useful tool in individual recognition of L. citropa and is one of a few studies on the use of PIM in Australian frogs. Keywords. Body patterning, Australian frogs, non-invasive, mark recapture, individual recognition, PIM Introduction and utilised across multiple study periods (Auger-Méthé and Whitehead, 2007; Knox et al., 2013; Marlow et al., In a time of unprecedented rates of biodiversity decline, 2016). PIM has been particularly successful in studies of a good understanding of age structures, habitat use, cetaceans and mammals (Würsig and Jefferson, 1990; and population fluctuations is necessary for effective Auger-Méthé and Whitehead, 2007; Urian et al., 2015) ecological and conservation management strategies and is increasing in use for reptiles and amphibians (Phillott et al., 2007; Kenyon et al., 2009; Marlow et world-wide (Bradfield, 2004; Knox et al., 2013; Šukalo al., 2016). This information is often obtained through various sampling and survey methods such as mark- et al., 2013; Sacchi et al., 2016).

  • Protecting the Natural Treasures of the Australian Alps
    Protecting the Natural Treasures of the Australian Alps Alpine National Park Avon Wilderness Park Bimberi Nature Reserve Brindabella National Park Kosciuszko National Park Mount Buffalo National Park Namadgi National Park Scabby Range Nature Reserve Snowy River National Park Peter Coyne May 2001 A report to the Natural Heritage Working Group of the Australian Alps Liaison Committee Protecting the Natural Treasures of the Australian Alps About the author Peter Coyne has had an interest in the Australian Alps from early childhood and a long history of interest and involvement in protected area issues. This began with preparation of a management plan as an honours project when such a document was a real novelty. He had the rare opportunity to create national parks, working with the Land Conservation Council in Victoria where he defined the boundaries and gave names to proposed new national parks, including Croajingalong, Snowy River and Tingaringy, which the Government adopted. Dr Coyne joined the Australian National Parks and Wildlife Service in its early days and spent four years establishing the Service’s office and operations on Norfolk Island, and introducing the concept of environmental management to the island’s community and government (which led to the creation of the Norfolk Island National Park). He then headed the ANPWS Park Planning Section, personally preparing the management plan for Kakadu National Park and having responsibility for preparation of other plans ranging from central Australia (Uluru–Kata Tjuta) to marine national nature reserves in the Coral and Timor Seas, and park plans for Australia’s remote Indian Ocean Territories. During this time he also developed the legislation and lease to enable transfer of Uluru to its traditional Aboriginal owners and its lease back to the Director of National Parks and Wildlife for continuing use as a national park.
