... ~ c e Office at Bourke where it was tentatively identified as the Yellow-fwted Antechinus, Antechinus flavipes. There were no signs of injury to the animal so it was assumed that it had died as part of the male die-off in the antechinuses. Since the animal was so far from the range described by Van...

.... Secondly, reduced numbers of antechinuses would have been recorded post-fire if animals had spent much time in torpor. Antechinus species spend more time in daily torpor when food is in short supply, but in the Yellow-footed Antechinus (A. flavipes) torpor increases a further two-fold if individuals...

... and Maragle State Forests (1 100 trap nights costing 52 person hours) detected the presence of Bush Rat Rattus fuscipes , Dusky Antechinus Antechinus swainsonii and Brown Antechinus Antechinus stuartii . Rattus fuscipes proved to be abundant in some localities. Records made by nocturnal survey (253 sites...

... specific, but again, most return to pre-fire (or at least Control site) levels within 6.0 years. Antechinus mimetes mimetes is one exception, disappearing from Impact sites within 2.0 years of the 2013 fire. Recovery of both Rattus species was faster than Antechinus, and coincided with return of low shrub...

... briefly summarized in this paper show patterns of steep declines in large old trees and declines in site occupancy by arboreal marsupials and birds. These changes contrast markedly with the responses of the two most common species of small mammals (the Agile Antechinus [ Antechinus agilis ] and Bush Rat...

... accumulated between 2011 and 2018. A total of 12 mammal species was detected in the diet, with the Bush Rat Rattus fuscipes , Agile Antechinus Antechinus agilis , Sugar Glider Petaurus breviceps and Rabbit Oryctolagus cuniculus dominating. The diet also included three threatened species, the Eastern Pygmy...

... and the Brown Antechinus A. stuartii accounting for 67% and 14% of all Elliott trap captures, respectively. The survey provided the first live specimens of Eastern Chestnut Mouse in the region, a range extension of some 270 km south of the previous record.

Daily torpor is used by dasyurids (e.g. dunnarts, antechinus, quolls), myrmecobiids (numbat), tarsipedids (honey-possum), petaurid possums (e.g. sugar glider), rodents (but only known...

... of Sminthopsis leucopus. The number of the Brown Antechinus Antechinus stuartii and the Bush Rat Rattus fuscipes was sharply reduced by the fire of November 1980, with the Dusky Antechinus Antechinus swainsonii becoming locally extinct in burnt areas.
