Full textIsotopic analysis of dental and bone tissues can be used to reveal movement and diet in animals. However, the suitability of these methods for tracing migration in an Australian animal has not yet been demonstrated. In this pilot study Sr, C and O isotope profiles were created from 31 individuals selected from four species of kangaroos in South Australia (Macropus rufus, M. fuliginosus, M. giganteous and M. robustus). Primarily, enamel from fourth molars and bone apatite were sampled to document isotopic changes in individuals between the formation of the tissues in the tooth and bone. Variations in the strontium (87Sr/86Sr), carbon (13C) and oxygen (18O) isotopes were used to assess movement of kangaroos across local geological and environmental conditions. Five individuals displayed a marked difference between enamel and bone apatite isotopic composition, indicating movement between distinct geological and environmental regions. The implications of this study to migration reconstruction in the past are discussed

Full text"The report recognized the need to minimize disturbance of fauna and flora and suggested that ‘swimmer’s itch’, caused by avian schistosome cercariae, and mosquito-borne viruses should be investigated. Because the 26 km northern boundary, e.g. Big Bay, Antill Creek, had steeper foreshores and deeper water, it was recommended as a primary site for public access. The 7 km western boundary formed by the dam wall was seen as ideal for viewing opportunities of the lake and surrounding hills and mountains, and for water sports. Because of inaccessibility, potential management difficulties and shallowness, the 47 km southern and eastern margins did not offer significant recreational opportunities. 9.3 Tropical itch mite The stage 1 lake was surrounded with open schlerophyll woodland which afforded kangaroos and wallabies shelter during the hottest times of the day. Part of their exoparasitic fauna is the mite Eutrombicula macropus, whose offspring spend part of their life-cycle hanging off grass stems and other vegetative matter waiting to encounter a new host. Much to their misfortune, campers and bushwalkers consequently often find themselves with an itchy rash called ‘tropical itch’, often around the lines of underclothing. Prior to the filling of the stage 2 lake, the land in the zone between the stage 1 and stage 2 margins was selectively cleared. This probably diverted the macro-pods to other wooded habitat. From November 1990 to 1992, 350 litter samples were processed using Berlese funnels and 40 W incandescent bulbs to drive any inhabitants into sample bottles containing 70 per cent alcohol. No Eutrombicula macropus were collected. Thus clearing would seem to present an effective management option against this pest, as well as having the other benefits detailed below. 9.4 Mosquitoes and arboviruses 9.4.1 Mosquitoes From April 1984 to September 1985 (stage 1), the primary questions related to definition of mosquito taxa and the suitability of different methods of catching adult mosquitoes for surveillance purposes. Twenty-six taxa were collected by all night carbon dioxide supplemented light traps or by human bait collections for one hour after sunset (Barker-Hudson et al. 1993; Jones et al. 1991). The numerically dominant species were Culex annulirostris and Anopheles annulipes (both species groups), which are traditionally associated with temporary fresh water pools along the lake margins, often among emergent vegetation. Of considerable surprise during September 1985 was the discovery of immatures of these species, plus Aedeomyia catasticta, utilizing extensive floating mats of the aquatic weed Hydrilla verticillata which sometimes covered 37 per cent of the surface of the lake."

Full text"As an adjunct to this, egg masses of Austropeplea were hatched out and reared in constant temperature rooms at 15°C, 25°C and 30°C with weekly changes of water and vegetation (Figure 9.5). Shell length was measured weekly until time of reproduction. At 15°C the snails grew slower but lived longer, but at 25°C and 30°C, there was little difference in growth rates, although those at 25°C were marginally larger at equivalent periods. Although water temperatures at the Ross River dam do occasionally drop to 16°C on occasions, generally they average 25–28°C (Hurley et al. 1995). Thus from this, an Austropeplea of 12 mm shell length collected during summer will be around one month old and capable of reproducing. One of 20 mm at either 25°C or 30°C water temperature would be approximately 100 days old. On this basis, it is suggested that monitoring could be comfortably done every two to three months. 9.6 Management options 9.6.1 General conclusions There are several other lakes, man-made or otherwise in northern Queensland, that support diverse recreational activities without apparent mishap. All are subjected to tropical conditions conducive to year round production of mosquitoes, snails, mites and pathogens. What is different about the Ross River dam stage 2A is its shallowness and proximity to large human populations. Nevertheless, the studies carried out in two blocks (1983–1987 and 1990–1995) have defined its mosquito and alphavirus hazard as considerable but no greater in the northern and north-eastern areas of Big Bay, Ti-Tree Bay, Round Island and Antill Creek than that experienced by local residents in everyday life. The relative hazard would change considerably, however, if the responsible local authorities ever decided to mount a broadscale aerial control programme against larval Aedes vigilax, which breed in the extensive intertidal wetlands. Restriction of activities to daylight hours will not only facilitate easier control of the public but will also reduce exposure to key vector species such as Culex annulirostris, Anopheles amictus and Aedes normanensis. However, who takes the responsibility for an estimated 5 billion mosquito larvae found periodically in the floating Hydrilla beds? As discussed, both Culex annulirostris and Anopheles annulipes are quite capable of dispersing from the reservoir into the urban populace. Recreational management issues are probably far less complicated than the moral issues. Whereas land clearance prior to the flooding of the stage 2A lake was effective in controlling tropical itch mites and some mosquito species, it also probably effected a redistribution of the kangaroos and wallabies, known to be most effective intermediate hosts of some arboviruses, including Ross River and the often fatal Murray Valley encephalitis. They have probably been driven towards the quieter eastern areas around Toonpan, where in 1992 Ross River virus was detected in wet season Aedes normanensis at rates as low as 1:217."
