Abstract:

The received wisdom was and is that landscapes cannot be more than a few millions of years old. Nevertheless, consideration of local geology and age of sediments in adjacent basins convinced Paul S. Hossfeld that the summit surface of low relief preserved on the northern Mount Lofty Ranges of South Australia resulted from long-continued planation and that it is of Cretaceous age; that is, some 70 million years old. Hossfeld's apparently intuitive suggestion that very old landscapes exist, recorded in his graduate thesis but not further pursued by him, is the earliest known statement of this idea.

Abstract:

This paper describes the South Australian distribution of the southern brown bandicoot (Isoodon obesulus obesulus) on the basis of records of its past occurrence and field surveys undertaken to determine its present distribution. Since European settlement I. o. obesulus has been recorded from four separate regions of the state: the Mount Lofty Ranges, the South East, Kangaroo Island and Eyre Peninsula. Subfossil remains show that I. o. obesulus also once occurred on Yorke Peninsula but there is no evidence that it has existed there in modem times. Field surveys conducted between 1986 and 1993 confirmed that I. o. obesulus still exists in the Mount Lofty Ranges, the South East and on Kangaroo Island. Its status on Eyre Peninsula is uncertain. Isoodon o. obesulus is vulnerable in the South East and Mount Lofty Ranges because of habitat fragmentation and predation by feral carnivores. The Kangaroo Island population is less threatened as large areas of habitat have been preserved and the fox (Vulpes vulpes) has not been introduced. The area of potential bandicoot habitat remaining in these three regions totals approximately 190 000 ha, most of which is already managed for nature conservation. This habitat is highly fragmented, occurring as small remnant patches of native vegetation separated by extensive tracts of cleared and modified land cover. The implications of this habitat configuration for the long-term survival of I. o. obesulus are discussed.

Abstract:

Many koalas (Phascolarctos cinereus) in the Mount Lofty Ranges, South Australia, are affected by oxalate nephrosis, in which renal calcium oxalate deposition occurs. In other species, suboptimal water intake increases the risk of urinary calcium oxalate crystal formation. Koalas principally rely on eucalypt leaf moisture content to maintain hydration but the Mount Lofty Ranges region has hot, dry summers. This study investigates the association between temperature, rainfall and eucalypt leaf moisture and the occurrence of oxalate nephrosis in this population of koalas. Koalas from the Mount Lofty Ranges population that had died or were euthanased between 2008 and 2016 were necropsied and oxalate nephrosis was determined by histopathology (n=50). Leaf moisture content of Mount Lofty eucalypts was determined seasonally. It was found that increased numbers of koalas with oxalate nephrosis died in the months following high mean maximal temperature and in the months following low rainfall. Eucalypt leaf moisture content was not significantly associated with koala deaths. These findings suggest that hot and dry summer/autumn periods contribute to an increased incidence of koala deaths due to oxalate nephrosis. This is probably due to the effects of evaporative water loss and/or lack of access to supplementary drinking water at this time.

Abstract:

Charles Albert Edward Fenner (1884?1955) was educated in Melbourne but spent the major part of his working life in South Australia, first as Superintendent of Technical Education and later as Director of Education, holding the latter post during the difficult years of the Second World War. He is best remembered for his role in the establishment of Geography as a university discipline and for his landform studies. He brought together earlier work on the tectonics of the Gulfs region of South Australia and introduced the term ?shatter belt' to describe the complex of horsts and sunken blocks. He noted evidence pointing to recent and continuing earth movements, and suggested that such earth movements were responsible for the westerly diversion of the River Murray at Chucka Bend. He also conceived a hypothesis of ?double planation' in explanation of the morphology of the Mt Lofty Ranges.

Abstract:

Oxalate nephrosis is a leading disease of the Mount Lofty Ranges koala population in South Australia, but the cause is unclear. In other herbivorous species, a common cause is high dietary oxalate; therefore this study aimed to determine the oxalate content of eucalypt leaves. Juvenile, semimature and mature leaves were collected during spring from eucalypt species eaten by koalas in the Mount Lofty Ranges and compared with those from Moggill, Queensland, where oxalate nephrosis has lower prevalence. Total oxalate was measured as oxalic acid by high-performance liquid chromatography. The oxalate content of eucalypts was low (<1% dry weight), but occasional Mount Lofty leaf samples had oxalate levels of 4.68–7.51% dry weight. Mount Lofty eucalypts were found to be higher in oxalate than those from Queensland (P < 0.001). In conclusion, dietary oxalate in eucalypt leaves is unlikely to be the primary cause of oxalate nephrosis in the Mount Lofty koala population. However, occasional higher oxalate levels could cause oxalate nephrosis in individual koalas or worsen disease in those already affected. Further studies on the seasonal variation of eucalypt leaf oxalate are needed to determine its role in the pathogenesis of oxalate nephrosis in koalas.

Full text

Abstract:

Agricultural landscapes in southern Australia were once dominated by temperate eucalypt woodlands of which only fragmented patches and scattered trees in paddocks remain. This study focuses on the decline of scattered trees in the Mount Lofty Ranges and South East agricultural regions of South Australia. A combination of digitized aerial photography and satellite imagery was used to extend a previous assessment of decline undertaken in the early 1980s and increase the period over which decline was assessed to 58–72 years. A total of 17 049 scattered trees were counted from the earliest time period assessed over 11 sites of which 6 185 trees were lost by 2008 — a 36 % decline. Recruitment of 2 179 trees during this period was evident. Imagery indicates that clearing for agricultural intensification is the primary cause of the decline. A range of management options and policy settings are required to reverse the decline notwithstanding the challenges of implementation at a landscape scale across privately owned land.

Abstract:

The tribe Teylini is diagnosed. It comprises Teyl Main, Namea Raven (newly placed) and two new monotypic genera, Teyloides and Pseudoteyl. The two new genera and their type-species, T. bakeri and P. vancouveri from Mt Lofty, South Australia, and West Cape Howe, Western Australia, respectively, are described. Affinities within the Teylini and relationships to other diplurine genera are discussed. It is suggested that the spur on the first tibia, a significant diagnostic character of Australian male diplurines, has evolved at least three times.

Abstract:

The koala (Phascolarctos cinereus) is an iconic Australian marsupial that is under threat of extinction across two thirds of its range, with populations recently listed as ‘endangered’ in Queensland (QLD), New South Wales (NSW) and the Australian Capital Territory (ACT). Many risk factors have been implicated in the koala population decline, including habitat loss, vehicle collisions, dog attack and infectious diseases such as chlamydiosis and koala immune deficiency syndrome caused by koala retrovirus (KoRV). Trypanosomes are blood-borne protozoan parasites that can infect all classes of mammals and are known to cause serious disease in humans and domestic livestock worldwide. Recent studies have identified numerous Trypanosoma species in a range of Australian marsupials, including the koala which is known to harbour up to six species in either single or mixed infections: Trypanosoma irwini, Trypanosoma gilletti, Trypanosoma copemani, Trypanosoma vegrandis, Trypanosoma noyesi and Trypanosoma sp. AB-2017. Importantly, preliminary data from analyses of hospitalised koalas in QLD suggest that trypanosome infections (alone or with concurrent diseases) may adversely affect koala health and survival. Whilst a large number of studies have been conducted on chlamydia and KoRV, there is still a paucity of research investigating the prevalence, diversity and clinical impact of trypanosomes in koalas. In particular, there is a dearth of research comprising random, representative samples from various wild koala populations across Australia, including more stable populations from South Australia (SA). This descriptive cross-sectional study utilised nested PCR, targeting partial fragments of the nuclear 18S ribosomal RNA (18S rRNA) gene, to screen blood samples from wild-caught koalas for the presence of trypanosomes. Samples were randomly collected from koalas belonging to two distinct wild populations; Moreton Bay, Queensland (QLD) (n= 72) and Mount Lofty, South Australia (SA) (n= 89). The overall prevalence of Trypanosoma in both populations was 47.2% (76/161; 95% CI: 39.3-55.2%). The prevalence of trypanosomes in koalas from Moreton Bay was 80.6% (58/72; 95% CI: 69.5-88.9%), whereas the prevalence in koalas from Mount Lofty was significantly lower: 20.2% (18/89; 95% CI: 12.4-30.1%). Sanger sequencing of PCR positive products was performed and phylogenetic analysis conducted on the partial 18S rDNA fragments obtained. A total of 35 Trypanosoma isolates from Moreton Bay koalas were identified as Trypanosoma irwini (n= 36), with intra-specific genetic variations ranging from 0% - 2.99%. Remaining QLD isolates (n=16) were identified as Trypanosoma gilletti, with genetic distances ranging from 0% - 1.20%. These results are similar to findings from previous studies of hospitalised koalas from QLD and NSW. All Trypanosoma isolates from the Mount Lofty population (n = 18) formed a unique, highly diverse clade within the Trypanosoma cruzi clade of trypanosomes. These novel sequences displayed a high genetic variation amongst each other (genetic distances = 0% - 7.04%) and from their most closely related species (T. sp 1EA-2008) (genetic distances = 1.90% - 7.73%). To the best of the author’s knowledge, this is the first report of trypanosomes in koalas from SA. The unique phylogenetic position of the isolates identified, associated with a relatively high genetic distance from their most closely related known Trypanosoma sp., suggests that they may potentially represent novel Trypanosoma spp.. Further analyses of full-length 18S sequences and additional loci are required to confirm this finding and reliably delimit the species. Sanger sequencing of seven PCR positive isolates from Moreton Bay koalas revealed mixed chromatograms and were excluded from phylogenetic analyses. Further analyses using next-generation metabarcoding are required to identify and characterise mixed trypanosome infections in all positive samples detected in the present study, particularly those that produced mixed Sanger sequencing chromatograms. This study provides valuable novel baseline data which will contribute to the growing knowledge base of Australian trypanosomes, and future studies on the potential impact of Trypanosoma spp. (with and without concurrent infectious diseases) on the health and conservation of koalas.

Abstract:

AbstractThis paper presents and discusses the mechanisms of rainfall-induced shallow landslides that commonly occur in South East Queensland (SEQ) and northern New South Wales (NSW), Australia. The major factors causing the formation of landslide mass such as geology, weathering, and rainfall patterns were discussed. Results from field surveys and laboratory testing of rock/soil material from landslide masses were presented, and relationships between the material strength and landslide occurrence were drawn. It was found that most of shallow slides were related to sandstone deposits. Those failures occurred on natural slopes and road cuts with the inclination of the failure plane being in the range of 35–45°. For natural slopes where the landslide mass mostly consisted of coarse-grained soil, the relationship between the soil strength and water content was established. In addition, the relationship between rainfall patterns such as intensity and duration, and the landslide occurrence was presented. Based on the data from field work and laboratory results including a series of flume tests, the mechanism of shallow landslides triggered by rainfall events was identified and discussed.

Abstract:

Abstract The Cadia district of New South Wales contains four alkalic porphyry Au-Cu deposits (Cadia East, Ridgeway, Cadia Hill, and Cadia Quarry) and two Cu-Au-Fe skarn prospects (Big Cadia and Little Cadia), with a total of ~50 Moz Au and ~9.5 Mt Cu (reserves, resources, and past production). The ore deposits are hosted by volcaniclastic rocks of the Weemalla Formation and Forest Reefs Volcanics, which were deposited in a submarine basin on the flanks of the Macquarie Arc during the Middle to Late Ordovician. Alkalic magmatism occurred during the Benambran orogeny in the Late Ordovician to early Silurian, resulting in the emplacement of monzonite intrusive complexes and the formation of porphyry Au-Cu mineralization. Ridgeway formed synchronous with the first compressive peak of deformation and is characterized by an intrusion-centered quartz-magnetite-bornite-chalcopyrite-Au vein stockwork associated with calc-potassic alteration localized around the apex of the pencil-like Ridgeway intrusive complex. The volcanic-hosted giant Cadia East deposit and the intrusion-hosted Cadia Hill and Cadia Quarry deposits formed during a period of relaxation after the first compressive peak of the Benambran orogeny and are characterized by sheeted quartz-sulfide-carbonate vein arrays associated with subtle potassic, calc-potassic, and propylitic alteration halos.

Abstract:

This chapter outlines the principal geological features of the region, extending from Myanmar and Taiwan in the north, southwards to include all the ASEAN countries, and extending as far as northern Australia. The present-day lithospheric plates and plate margins are described, and the Cenozoic evolution of the region discussed. Within a general framework of convergent plate tectonics, Southeast Asia is also characterized by important extensional tectonics, resulting in the world’s greatest concentration of deep-water marginal basins and Cenozoic sedimentary basins, which have become the focus of the petroleum industry. The pre-Cenozoic geology is too complex for an adequate analysis in this chapter and the reader is referred to Hutchison (1989) for further details. A chronological account summarizing the major geological changes in Southeast Asia is given in Figure 1.2. The main geographical features of the region were established in the Triassic, when the large lithospheric plate of Sinoburmalaya (also known as Sibumasu), which had earlier rifted from the Australian part of Gondwanaland, and collided with and became sutured onto South China and Indochina, together named Cathaysia. The result was a great mountain-building event known as the Indosinian orogeny. Major granites were emplaced during this orogeny, with which the tin and tungsten mineral deposits were genetically related. The orogeny resulted in general uplift and the formation of major new landmasses, which have predominantly persisted as the present-day regional physical geography of Southeast Asia. The Indo-Australian Plate is converging at an average rate of 70 mm a−1 in a 003° direction, pushed from the active South Indian Ocean spreading axis. For the most part it is composed of the Indian Ocean, formed of oceanic sea-floor basalt overlain by deep water. It forms a convergent plate margin with the continental Eurasian Plate, beneath which it subducts at the Sunda or Java Trench.
