SERI2 IThe Australian Museum, 6 College Street, Sydney, NSW 2000, Australia 2Department of Environment and Conservation, Division of Wildlife, P.O. Box 6601, Boroko, Papua New Guinea ABSTRACT. A mammal survey was carried out between 1984 and 1987 in southern West Sepik Province, Papua New Guinea. Eleven major collecting localities, as well as some more minor ones, lying at altitudes of between 120 and 3,200 m were investigated. Voucher specimens for 87 indigenous mammal taxa were obtained, but research suggests that mammal diversity in the area may be as high as 120 species. This is the highest mammal diversity recorded anywhere in Australasia. A similar high bird diversity suggests that the area may be one of exceptionally high biodiversity overall. The most diverse mammal assemblages in the study area are found in the midmontane oak forests (between 1,500 and 2,500 m).

  • Reproductive Energetics of Captive and Free-Ranging Egyptian Fruit Bats (Rouseitus Aegyptiacus)

Abstract. This study explored how a flying frugivorous mammal, the Egyptian fruit bat (Rousettus aegyptiacus), meets the increased energy requirements of reproduction. This bat feeds on low-protein fruit, and females have bimodal polyestrous cycles that are rel­ atively long for a small mammal. We measured the energy and water balance of captive nonreproductive, pregnant, and lactating females, and of free-ranging lactating females, Our results indicate that females use more than one strategy to cope with the high energy demands of reproduction, These strategies may change according to the availability of food and reproductive status, The primary strategy near the end of pregnancy and at peak lactation was increased food consumption, In the laboratory, mean metabolizable energy intake (MEl) of pregnant and lactating females (271 and 360 kJ/d, respectively) increased by 35% and 80%, respectively, compared to that of nonreproductive females (200 kJ/d), At peak lac­ tation, energy intake measured by doubly labeled water averaged 350 kJ/d. During late pregnancy, water turnover rate (WTO) increased by 15-23% compared to that of nonre­ productive females.

  • Vertebrate Fauna Survey Worimi Conservation Lands
    VERTEBRATE FAUNA SURVEY WORIMI CONSERVATION LANDS FINAL REPORT Prepared for NSW DEPARTMENT OF ENVIRONMENT AND CLIMATE CHANGE ECOTONE ECOLOGICAL CONSULTANTS Pty Ltd 39 Platt Street, Waratah NSW 2298 Phone: (02) 4968 4901 fax: (02) 4968 4960 E-mail: [email protected] EEC PROJECT No. 0583CW SEPTEMBER 2008 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Worimi Conservation Lands (WCL) cover an area of 4,200 hectares and are made up of three reserves: Worimi National Park, Worimi State Conservation Area and Worimi Regional Park. The WCL have been identified as a significant cultural landscape and are co-managed by a board of management. A vertebrate fauna survey of the Worimi Conservation lands has been undertaken in order to identify the fauna species assemblages within the WCL and record any significant species, including threatened species. As most of the previous studies were situated outside of or on the periphery of the WCL, a more detailed assessment of the fauna communities and habitat would assist in the future management for the WCL. From the literature review a total of 270 fauna species (excluding marine mammals) have been recorded within the study locality (2 km from the centre line of the WCL). These consisted of 189 bird, 49 mammal, 17 reptile and 15 frog species. It should be pointed out that it is unlikely that all of these species would occur within the WCL as the search area provides a greater variety of habitats than those identified within the WCL. Prior to the current survey a total of 135 species had been recorded within or very close to the WCL boundary.
