...J.C.Z. Woinarski ABSTRACT Natural environments are now much reduced or modified, with the consequence that many species have declined and become imperilled. However, such modifications have also led to range expansion or population increases in some other native species. Consequently...

... and Atlas 2 , 1998 - 2001). Reporting rates, adjusted for survey effort, were compared for 347 bird species. Of these, 184 species (53%) showed no change between the two atlases, 83 (24%) were recorded more frequently during Atlas 2 , and 80 (23%) were recorded less frequently during Atlas 2...

... are implicated in a significant decline in L. watsoni . The number of L. watsoni and several other common species of frog observed differed among and within sites over time and illustrate the value of multi-year monitoring to understand the dynamics of population distribution and abundance with long-term...

... differently by each species. This sensory information and how it is interpreted underpins most behaviours, but especially foraging decisions. Creating sensory misinformation, that is uninformative or unrewarding cues, is a new approach with applications for managing wildlife and conserving threatened species...

Our aims were to assess the effects of fire on occupancy of habitat across the geographic range of P. papuensis in NSW, to determine the smaller scale effects of fire...

...Gerasimos Cassis; Ryan Shofner; Shawn Laffan; Marina Cheng ABSTRACT This study examined the impact of the Black Summer 2019/20 wildfires in the Northeast Forests of New South Wales for seven priority heteropteran (= true bug) species, across a range of vegetation classes and host plants. Our area...

...Matthew Mo; Kylie Coutts-McClelland; Vanessa Wilson; Ron Haering; Lorraine Oliver; Linda Bell; Daniel Lunney ABSTRACT Managing the Grey-headed Flying-fox Pteropus poliocephalus as a species vulnerable to extinction in New South Wales (NSW) is complicated by contentious issues arising from flying...

...Peter B. Banks Distinguishing between whether a species is alien or native can be problematic, especially for introduced species that are long-established in new areas outside of their natural range. Transport by humans is the criterion for alien status used by many definitions, whereas arbitrary...

I reason that it is easily possible to do so because it lies within our long-standing legal and public...
