...Graham Pyke; Arthur White Populations of five frog species were monitored at three ponds utilized by the endangered Green and Golden Bell Frog Litoria aurea over a three year period 1993-1996. Litoria aurea bred at the two semi-permanent ponds with fluctuating water levels but did not breed...

...Greg Maguire; J.D. Bell A diverse fish fauna (49 species) was recorded in four tidal 0.11 ha prawn farming ponds which appear to act as fish traps. The potential deleterious effects of twelve of these species on prawn growth or survival are discussed in terms of the diet and reproductive biology...

.... For aquatic-breeding frogs, pond physical/chemical properties influence all life-stages and therefore populations, species, and communities. However, studies have focussed on tadpoles, considered few water variables, and not considered relationships between water attributes and frog populations or communities...

... in flooded areas of Terara Swamp and Brundee Swamp, while outside the breeding season more frogs were seen in the catchment of Rotten Creek, the largest tributary of Brundee Swamp. Ten of the systematic sites were ponds constructed for the species as offsets for various developments. Breeding activity...

... contains 22 habitat ponds, each attached to a water reticulation system. Predation by Gambusia has been identified as a key threatening process for the Green and Golden Bell Frog and may be a major contributor to the disappearance of many frog species in Australia. Its presence in Narawang Wetland offered...

...L. C. Llewellyn G. rostratus the Murray Jollytail bred in earthen ponds at the Inland Fisheries Research Station, Narrandera, NSW, when surface and bottom water temperatures were above 10.5oC during August and September. Flooding was unnecessary but there was water flow through the pond. Eggs were...

...), shallow (i.e., <1 m) ponds that are either ephemeral or fluctuate significantly in water level, are free of Gambusia and other predatory fish, and have emergent aquatic vegetation. Its breeding habitat also usually has potential shelter provided by nearby rocks or thick, low vegetation. Yet L. aurea...

... in the area close to the two survey sites between 1981 and 1983 and frog surveys were undertaken there between 1978 and 2016. One site was a dunal pond that supported up to 13 frog species, the other a wallum swamp that supported up to 12 frog species; however, frog community composition fluctuated...

... in the 1960s using fish from the western population. M. adspersa bred in ponds and aquaria at temperatures between 20.0 and 29.9oC (34.0oC at water surface), and in ponds between December and February. An abundant food supply was essential but rising water levels were not required. The elaborate spawning...
