Abstract:
A list of 37 species of ptyctimous mites from the State of Victoria, Australia, is provided. Seven species new for science are described and further seven are recorded for the first time in Victoria. The genus Arphthicarus has been discovered in Victoria and is represented by two new species. Zoogeographical distribution of each species is provided. Analysis of the ptyctimous fauna from four Victorian areas (Otway Ranges, Yarra Ranges, Errinundra Plateau and Strzelecki Ranges) has revealed that four species occur in a large number of specimens in one of the areas. Similarity analyses indicate that the faunas of Errinundra Plateau and Yarra Ranges are the most similar. An overview of state of knowledge on the ptyctimous mites from State of Victoria, Australia and Australasian Region is presented.

Abstract:
Varroa destructor is a parasitic mite, which is considered a severe pest for honey bees causing serious losses to beekeeping. Residual hydrolats from steam extraction of hop essential oils, generally considered as a waste product, were tested for their potential use as acaricides on V. destructor. Four hop varieties, namely Cascade, Spalt, Victoria, and Mapuche, showed an interesting performance as feasible products to be used in the beekeeping industry. Some volatile oxidized terpenoids were found in the hydrolats, mainly β-caryophyllene oxide, β-linalool, and isogeraniol. These compounds, together with the presence of polyphenols, flavonoids, and saponins, were probably responsible for the promissory LC50 values obtained for mites after hydrolat exposition. Victoria hydrolat was the most toxic for mites (LC50: 16.1 µL/mL), followed by Mapuche (LC50 value equal to 30.1 µL/mL), Spalt (LC50 value equal to 114.3 µL/mL), and finally Cascade (LC50: 117.9 µL/mL). Likewise, Spalt had the highest larval survival, followed by Victoria and Mapuche. Cascade was the variety with the highest larval mortality. In addition, none of the extracts showed mortality higher than 20% in adult bees. The Victoria hydrolat presented the best results, which makes it a good compound with the prospect of an acaricide treatment against V. destructor.

Abstract:
Eighty-one H. chrysogaster from nineteen localities in Victoria and South Australia were examined for helminths. One acanthocephalan Corynosoma stanleyi: and one cestode, Hymenolepis diminuta, were found. Of the trematodes six were identified to species: Echinoparyphium hydromyos, Fibricola minor, F. intermedius, Microphaflus minutus, Maritrema oocysta and Plagiorchis jaenschi; two were placed in the families Heterophyidae, and Psilostomidae, both new locality records; and two new species Notocotylus sp. nov. and Paramonostomum sp. nov. were found. There were six nematode species: Synhimantus australiensis, Antechiniella suffodiax, Antechiniella sp., Woolleya hydromyos as well as Parastrongyloides sp. and a heteroxynematid both new host records. H. diminuta was the most prevalent helminth, with M. minutus and S. australiensis the most prevalent trematode and nematode respectively. A checklist of helminths from H. chrysogaster is given and comparisons between infections of Tasmanian, Victorian and South Australian hosts are made. Thirty-three of these water rats, trapped live in Victoria, were also examined for protozoa. Klossiella hydromyos, Toxoplasma gondii and Sarcocystis sp. were found. Twenty of the Victorian hosts were examined for ectoparasites. Three mites; Paraspeleognathopsis derricki, Murichirus parahydromys, and Radfordia sp.; one tick, Zxodes tasmani; one louse, Hoplopleura bidentata; and three flea species, Acanthopsylla rothschildi and Echidnophaga spp. were found.

Full text
Abstract:
Habitat structure, at a scale at which we do not normally perceive it, can be an important determinant of species diversity and distribution in arboreal mites. Phytoseiid mites (1552 individuals) collected from the leaves of 75 species of woody plants from 55 forest sites between Noosa Head, Queensland and the Hartz Mountains, Tasmania were found to represent 28 species in four genera: Phytoseius, Typhlodromus, Amblyseius and Iphiseius. About half (38) of the plant species from which phytoseiid mites were collected had leaves with well-developed coverings of hairs on their abaxial surfaces, especially along the veins. Species in the genus Phytoseius were the most abundant mites (46.4% of total), and they were almost entirely restricted to leaves with well-developed tomenta (714 of 720 Phytoseius mites collected from 34 of 38 plant species with hairy leaves). In a test of these observations at three sites in Victoria, phytoseiid mites in general were more abundant on leaves with well-developed tomenta, but only Phytoseius mites were restricted to hairy leaves.

Full text
Abstract:
Earth mites are a complex of related species introduced into Australia in the early part of last century that cause economic damage to crops, especially canola, and to pastures. A general method of chemical control aimed at interrupting the life cycle at the most effective stage, by spraying in the spring before the mites enter diapause, has recently been adopted for controlling earth mites, particularly the redlegged earth mite Halotydeus destructor (Tucker). Here we use paired-paddock treatments and field enclosures to test the effectiveness of this method on pest populations of H. destructor as well as on other pests over two seasons at multiple pasture sites in Victoria. Halotydeus destructor numbers at the start of the winter growing season were suppressed by up to 85%, but this control level was not sustained. The numbers of H. destructor and other pests were similar to or higher than those in the unsprayed areas by spring. Spring spraying is, therefore, a useful means of suppressing H. destructor in early autumn, but its effects disappear relatively quickly over time in Victoria. This strategy also has little impact on the control of the blue oat mite Penthaleus major (Duges) and other phytophagous invertebrate pests.

Abstract:
In the harsh Antarctic terrestrial ecosystems, invertebrates are currently confined to sparse and restricted ice free areas, where they have survived on multi-million-year timescales in refugia. The limited dispersal abilities of these invertebrate species, their specific habitat requirements, and the presence of geographical barriers can drastically reduce gene flow between populations, resulting in high genetic differentiation. On continental Antarctica, mites are one of the most diverse invertebrate groups. Recently, two new species of the free living prostigmatid mite genus Stereotydeus Berlese, 1901 were discovered, bringing the number of Antarctic and sub-Antarctic species of this genus up to 15, of which 7 occur along the coast of Victoria Land and in the Transantarctic Mountains. To examine the biodiversity of Stereotydeus spp., the present study combines phylogenetic, morphological and population genetic data of specimens collected from nine localities in Victoria Land. Genetically distinct intraspecific groups are spatially isolated in northern Victoria Land, while, for other species, the genetic haplogroups more often occur sympatrically in southern Victoria Land. We provide a new distribution map for the Stereotydeus species of Victoria Land, which will assist future decisions in matters of the protection and conservation of the unique Antarctic terrestrial fauna.

Abstract:
Successful integrated pest management (IPM) programs rely on effective and efficient methods of monitoring pest and beneficial species, including mites. Several methods have been proposed for monitoring mites in Australian orchards, mainly based on examining leaves in situ. During the 2021–2022 growing season we flagged 1–2 pear trees Pyrus communis in each of 192 panels (a panel being trees in a 14 m length of a row) in a pear orchard at Tatura, Victoria, Australia. For each flagged tree we examined mite species occurrence and prevalence using three methods, (1) non-destructive visual examination of 10 leaves per panel using a 10x hand lens (current industry standard), (2) destructive lab-based examination of 4 leaves per flagged tree(s) using a stereo microscope, and (3) destructive lab-based examination of 2 leaves per flagged tree(s) using a stereo microscope. The presence and prevalence of pest mites and the previously released predatory mite Neoseiulus californicus were recorded. Throughout the season we observed various pest mites in the orchard including Tetranychus urticae, Panonychus ulmi, Eriophyes pyri, and Bryobia rubrioculus and the predatory mite N. californicus. However, the number of species detected and the prevalence of detected species on leaves were dependant on sampling method used. Both destructive sampling methods, method (2) and method (3), performed better than the current non-destructive industry standard in terms of species detection and prevalence. The largest differences were seen during the early stages of infestation for mite species other than E. pyri. Early detection of certain mite species is important because it can provide a more accurate estimate of the starting point for Cumulative Leaf Infested Days (CLIDs) calculations, resulting in better informed management decisions. Importantly, detection and prevalence results were similar for methods (2) and (3) despite the greatly reduced sampling effort (time required) for method (3), and overall sampling effort for method (3) was similar to that required for method (1). Therefore, in terms of both accuracy and sampling effort, method (3) outperformed the other two methods we trialled. An obvious limitation of method (3) when compared to current practice is the requirement for a stereo microscope and access to a laboratory or similar facility. Therefore, the method may be more useful for appropriately trained consultants who monitor pests in orchards on behalf of growers. Another limitation with our study was that it was limited to a single growing season in one pear orchard. We therefore recommend further research to validate our observations, and to support recommendations for growers and consultants.

Abstract:
The population dynamics and cestodes, nematodes, ticks and fleas of wild mice in mallee wheatlands in Victoria, Australia, were monitored every 6th week from November 1982 to November 1983. Presence of Acarina and Nosopsyllus spp. in a total of 355 mice from farm buildings, crops and near permanent water was independent of that of Hymenolepis fraterna, Taenia taeniaeformis, Aspiculuris tetraptera, Syphacia obvelata and Muspicea borreli. S. obvelata was recorded in every habitat throughout all seasons (although its prevalence was significantly higher in winter near permanent water) and was the most prevalent helminth (67.0%). Overall prevalences of H. fraterna, T. taeniaeformis, A. tetraptera and M. borreli were 7.0, 5.3, 6.2 and 1.7% resp. The overall prevalence of the ticks Radfordia affinis and Myobia murismusculi was 93.9% and that of Nosopsyllus spp. was 36.7%. Other ticks were found on 39.8% of mice. The number of parasite species and prevalence of infection were lowest during severe drought in summer. After the drought parasite prevalence increased significantly . Prevalence of some species differed with habitat, both within and between seasons, but the reasons for the differences were unclear. Prevalence and intensity of parasitism was independent of mouse population density. Muspicea borreli is recorded from Australia for the first time. ADDITIONAL ABSTRACT: The population dynamics and parasite fauna of wild Mus musculus were monitored every 6th week from November 1982 to November 1983 in the mallee wheatlands of northwest Victoria. Endo- and ectoparasites were examined in 355 mice sampled from farm buildings, crops and around permanent water. The presence of ectoparasites (myobiid mites and fleas of the genus Nosopsyllus) was independent of that of endoparasites (nasal mites, cestodes and nematodes). The number of parasite species and prevalence of infection were lowest in summer, a period of severe drought. After the drought, seasonal differences in the number of parasite species were not significant but the prevalence of parasite infection increased significantly. The prevalence and mean intensity of infection varied for each parasite species. The prevalence of many species differed with habitat, both within and between seasons. Generally, reasons for these differences were not clear. The prevalence and intensity of parasitism was independent of mouse population density.

Abstract:
The distribution and abundance of free-living arthropods from soil and under stones were surveyed at the Cape Hallett ice-free area (ASPA No. 106), North Victoria Land, Antarctica. A total of 327 samples from 67 plots yielded 11 species of arthropods comprised of three Collembola: Cryptopygus cisantarcticus, Friesea grisea and Isotoma klovstadi and eight mites: Coccorhagidia gressitti, Eupodes wisei, Maudheimia petronia, Nanorchestes sp., Stereotydeus belli, S. punctatus, Tydeus setsukoae and T. wadei. Arthropods were absent from areas occupied by the large Adélie penguin colony. There was some distinction among arthropod communities of different habitats, with water and a lichen species (indicative of scree slope habitats) ranking as significant community predictors alongside spatial variables in a Canonical Correspondence Analysis. Recent changes to the management plan for ASPA No. 106 may need to be revisited as the recommended campsite is close to the area of greatest arthropod diversity.

Abstract:
Springtails and mites are the dominant groups of terrestrial arthropods in Antarctic terrestrial ecosystems. Their Antarctic diversity includes a limited number of species, which are frequently endemic to specific regions within the continent. Advances in molecular techniques, combined with the re-evaluation of morphological characters and the availability of new samples, have recently led to the identification of a number of new springtail species within previously named, but ill-defined, species entities described in the last century. One such species, the neanurid Friesea grisea, originally described from sub-Antarctic South Georgia, was for many years considered to be the only known springtail with a pan-Antarctic distribution. With the recent availability of new morphological and molecular data, it has now been firmly established that the different representatives previously referred to this taxon from the Antarctic Peninsula and Victoria Land (continental Antarctica) should no longer be considered as representing one and the same species, and three clearly distinct taxa have been recognized: F. antarctica, F. gretae and F. propria. In this study, the relationships among these three species are further explored through the sequencing of the complete mtDNA for F. gretae and the use of complete mitogenomic as well as cytochrome c oxidase I data. The data obtained provide further support that distinct species were originally hidden within the same taxon and that, despite the difficulties in obtaining reliable diagnostic morphological characters, F. gretae is genetically differentiated from F. propria (known to be present in different locations in Northern Victoria Land), as well as from F. antarctica (distributed in the Antarctic Peninsula).

Abstract:
The article presents the results of a study of the distribution and seasonal dynamics of arachnoentomoses of horses. Arachnoses and entomoses - invasive diseases caused by arthropods - ticks and insects, temporary and permanent parasites of animals, causing enormous economic damage to horse breeding. Horses can be parasitized by subcutaneous mosquitoes - oviparous and live-bearing two-winged insects that parasitize in the larval stage. The aim of the research was to study the distribution of arachnoentomoses of horses in farms of different forms of ownership depending on the season. The research was conducted during 2019-2020 on horses of different breeds and age groups in the farm STOV "Victoria" of Krasnopil district and private farms of Sumy region. In order to detect entoparasites and endoparasites in horses, diagnostic studies (epizootological, clinical and laboratory) were performed. A total of 68 animals of different age groups were studied. Extensiveness and intensity of chorioptosis and sarcoptosis invasion were determined by the mortal method using 10% sodium hydroxide solution. To the scrapes taken from the affected areas of the skin was added a 10% solution of sodium hydroxide, moved and left for 30 minutes. to soften the crusts. Then the material was placed in small portions on a glass slide and examined under a microscope at low magnification. Extensiveness and intensity of hematopinosis invasion were determined during examination of horses on the skin, in the neck, shoulders, tail found eggs, larvae and adult lice. In turn, bloodsuckers were found during the examination on the snout, head, neck, ears, sides of the animal. Detected insects were examined with a magnifying glass. The most common arachnoentomoses of horses have been found to be hematopinosis, hypoboscosis, chorioptosis, and sarcoptosis. According to the results of our research, we found larvae eggs and mature insects in 20% of the studied animals. According to morphological features, a species affiliation was established - lice Haematopinus asini of the family Haematopinidae. In some animals, the intensity of the invasion reached 2-3 copies. parasites per 1 dm² body area of the animal. Also during the examination of horses on the snout, head, neck, ears, sides of 8% of animals were found bloodsuckers Nurrobosca equina family Hyppoboscidae. The intensity of the invasion in some animals reached 3-4 copies. parasites per 1 dm² body area of the animal. In addition to Chorioptes egui mites, Sarcoptes equi mites of the Sarcoptidae family were found in the scrapings studied. The extent of the invasion was 4.5%, and the intensity was 3 specimens of mites in the field of view of the microscope. Acariform mites of the species Chorioptes egui were found in the study of horse skin scrapings. Characteristic features of this species are the presence of long bristles that cover almost the entire body. The extent of the invasion was 8.3%, and the intensity was 2 specimens of mites in the field of view of the microscope. It was found that the peak of hematopinosis invasion occurs in the autumn-winter period of 28% and 19%, while in the spring-summer period this figure was 7% and 2%, respectively. Nurrobosca equine was found only in the summer. Simultaneous parasitization of Haematopinus asini lice and chorioptes mites was detected in horses. Acarosis chorioptosis and sarcoptosis reached the peak of invasion in the autumn-winter period of 20% and 22% and 8% and 7%, respectively.

Full text
Abstract:
Free-living common wombats (Vombatus ursinus) living at high densities on pastoral land (1.9 wombats ha–1) had most of their burrows (83%) confined to a 20-m-wide strip of remnant riparian vegetation adjacent to pasture (24 burrows ha–1). The ratio of wombats to 'active' burrows (being used by wombats) was 1.0. Wombats shared burrows extensively, with a mean of 3.1 ± 0.3 (s.e.), range 2–9 wombats using each burrow (n = 37). The majority (70%) of occupied burrows contained several wombats independent of age, sex and stage of reproduction. On average, wombats used the same burrow for 3.8 consecutive nights before changing to another. Home ranges of wombats overlapped completely. Adult males had larger home ranges than females with young (7.3 ± 0.6, 6.1–8.3 ha, n = 3 versus 3.8 ± 0.5, 2.4–5.0 ha, n = 4, respectively). Distances travelled and the area used each night by wombats decreased in late winter and spring, when food was more abundant. Breeding occurred throughout the year but there was a cluster of births in summer. Lactation was associated with weight loss in females of several kilograms. Usually larger (30 kg) males that shared burrows or used burrows near (<300 m) to the burrows used by a female sired her young; however, occasionally wombats that used widely separated burrows (>700 m) bred. Adult males had a greater head length to weight ratio than adult females. Adult males generally emerged from their burrows shortly after dusk and 30 min before adult females. Ectoparasites such as ticks, mites, fleas and lice were common but the mite Sarcoptes scabiei was not found nor were there signs of sarcoptic mange in the population.

Abstract:
George Henry Frederick Ulrich (1830–1900) was educated at the Clausthal Mining School in Germany and arrived in Victoria in 1853. After a short period on the goldfields, he was employed on the Mining Commission and then on the Geological Survey of Victoria until its closure in 1868. In 1870 he was appointed Curator and Lecturer at the newly established Industrial and Technological Museum of Victoria. In 1878 he was appointed inaugural Director of the Otago School of Mines, New Zealand, a position he held until his death in 1900. His legacy includes detailed original maps of central Victorian goldfields, the foundation of the state’s geological collections, and among the first accounts of Victorian geology published in German periodicals, until now little known. As the only scientist of his times in Victoria with the qualifications and expertise to accurately identify and properly describe minerals, he provided the first comprehensive accounts of Victorian mineralogy, including the identification of the first new mineral in Australia, which he named maldonite. His contribution to mineralogy is recognised by the species ulrichite. Ulrich was universally respected for his scientific achievements and highly regarded for his personal qualities.

Full text
Abstract:
We present the first study of the systematics, ecology, and biogeography of an arboreal oribatid mite from Australia, describe all stages of Adhaesozetes polyphyllos sp.nov., propose new diagnoses for its genus and family, and present a character analysis demonstrating that the family Adhaesozetidae is a member of the Licneremaeoidea. Certain character states, especially the expanded tarsal pulvilli, are interpreted as adaptations to arboreal life. Adhaesozetes polyphyllos grazes on epiphyllic fungi and prefers leaves with smooth surfaces or with closely appressed hairs. It inhabits at least 51 species of trees, shrubs, vines, and ferns in pockets of rainforest in eastern Australia. It is often the most abundant leaf-inhabiting oribatid mite in the cool- to warm-temperate rainforests of Tasmania and Victoria, and inhabits montane subtropical to tropical rainforests at least as far north as Mount Lewis (16°32′S). It appears to be absent from lowland subtropical to tropical rainforests, which suggests an ancient relationship with the Antarctic elements of the Australian flora. Populations are bisexual, with females representing an average of 55% of the adult population. At Wilson's Promontory, populations increase from late winter to midsummer, but all stages are present throughout the year. Females use their ovipositors to lay eggs in protected sites (e.g., insect damage or leaf domatia), often within the cast skins of immature mites.

Abstract:
Derived from a larger scale project, which studied geomechanical issues associated with coal seam gas (CSG) production, this paper investigates a hypothetical case study based on the Latrobe Valley, Gippsland Basin, Victoria. The paper focuses on examining aquifer water management associated with CSG production-related water extraction. As such, the paper limits itself to determining the volume of water production from a hypothetical case study area in the Latrobe Valley. A simplistic property model and methane production strategy has been used. The impact of extraction of this water on the hydraulic head in aquifers underlying the produced seams is quantified. The Latrobe Valley Depression contains 129,000 million tonnes of coal resources and is one of the world’s largest, and lowest cost, energy sources. Most of Victoria’s electricity is generated using coal from the Loy Yang, Morwell and Yallourn mines. In addition to these massive operations, significant additional coal resources are available and unallocated at this time. Opportunities exist for the continued usage of these resources for electricity production, gasification, liquefaction and other coal conversion processes, as well as solid fuel for industrial, domestic and other uses. The existence of data from the Victorian Department of Primary Industries 2003 coal resource model was the main reason for the selection of the case study, and their data was used to form a model of the stratigraphy of the Latrobe Valley. Aquifer models were simulated in MODFLOW, based on extraction figures modelled in the CSG simulator COMET3.

Abstract:
Abstract A small-plot field study was conducted at the Texas A&M Univeristy Research and Extension Center at Corpus Christi to evaluate soil and foliar insecticides for control of early-season pests in dryland cotton. Four treatments and an untreated check were compared in 4-row × 30-ft plots of cotton planted 19 Mar on 38-inch rows. Treatments were replicated 3 times in a randomized complete block design. Using Gandy applicator boxes, soil insecticides (Counter and Temik) were applied in the seed furrow at planting time. Applications of the foliar insecticide treatment (Cygon) were initiated at the pinhead square stage of cotton growth on 8 May; subsequent applications were made on 14, 21, and 28 May. Cygon applications were made with a CO2-pressurized (35 psi) backpack sprayer, calibrated to deliver 4.5 gal total spray/acre through 2 size 3X hollow-cone nozzles/row. Edaphic conditions at planting time consisted of 15% water (by weight) in top 4 inches of soil and a temperature of 67°F at 4 inches below surface of soil. The soil type was Victoria clay with an organic matter content of 1.7%. Following planting, rainfall did not occur at the test site until 4 Apr (1.0 inch). Accumulated rainfall at the test site from planting date to first bloom stage of cotton growth (the period during which data on pest infestations were gathered) was 5.8 inches. A light freeze (31°F for 1 hr) occurred 31 Mar. Also, the test site was subjected to heavy rainfall (12 inches) and flooding during the first 2 wk in June; fruit-shed by plants during this period was extensive. Efficacy of treatments was evaluated by inspecting terminals of 20 randomly chosen plants in each plot for numers of fleahopper nymphs and thrips and by inspecting terminal leaves (third leaf from apex of plant) of 20 randomly chosen plants in each plot for numbers of aphids and adult female mites. A plant count was taken at the third leaf stage of cotton growth to determine whether the soil insecticides had an effect on the development of a stand. Seed cotton was hand-harvested from 13.6-ft section of row in each plot for yield analysis.

Abstract:
It's March 2020 as I write this, and the theaters are closed. Broadway is dark, and the Globe is once again shut due to a plague. Perhaps “self-isolation” is a strange condition under which to be thinking about crowded Victorian playhouses. As I make dates to watch movies with friends hundreds of miles away on the Netflix Party app, the media environment in which I pursue entertainment has perhaps never felt more dissimilar to that of nineteenth-century theatergoers. But, then again, maybe the photos of empty auditoria and deserted streets are the best demonstration of the space that public culture has taken up in our lives. The vacuum shows us that what's missing mattered. And if scholars of Victorian theater have shared a primary goal, it's to insist on how deeply the collective experience of playgoing influenced the everyday practices and beliefs of the period—even when theater and drama may not always appear on Victorian syllabi or conference programs. This essay considers three recent studies in Victorian theater—The Cambridge Companion to English Melodrama (2018), edited by Carolyn Williams; The Drama of Celebrity (2019), by Sharon Marcus; and Everyone's Theater: Literature and Daily Life in England, 1860–1914 (2019), by Michael Meeuwis—to register the force that theatrical performance exerted on Victorians and to explore how that force could change our sense of the field. By dwelling with archives and objects that might otherwise get classed as cultural “ephemera,” these studies push us to acknowledge that the run of Victorian theater hasn't ended. In the collective pause before a moment of intense feeling, or in a contradictory attachment to a public figure who is both imitable and extraordinary, they find a repertoire of spectator behavior from which many of our own modes of attention derive.

Abstract:
Abstract The underground mining of the rock salt deposit from Slănic started in 1665, with the Old Mines and continued in 1970, with Victoria Mine, then in 1993, with Cantacuzino Mine. The mining method applied at Victoria and Cantacuzino mines was the one with small rooms and square pillars, with which over 9.7 million m3 of rock salt were extracted. This very large volume of underground mining voids led to the convergence of the underground excavations and thus to the deformation of the surface. This article presents the analysis of the measurements of surface displacement and the prediction of its subsidence over time. Also, the main factors that contributed to the deformation of the surface are analyzed, namely: the dimensions of the underground voids, the mining depth, the geomechanical characteristics, the tectonics and microtectonics of the deposit, the hydrogeology and the effect of blasting.

Full text
Abstract:
Abstract ContextBird–aircraft collisions impose an economic cost and safety risk, yet ecological studies that inform bird hazard management are few, and to date no study has formally compared species’ strike profiles across airports. In response to strike risks, airports have implemented customised management on an airport-by-airport basis, based on the assumption that strike risk stems from prevailing local circumstances. We tested this assumption by comparing a decade of wildlife–aircraft strikes at three airports situated in the same bioregion (likely to have similar fauna) of Victoria, Australia. AimTo compare the assemblage of wildlife struck by aircraft at three major airports in the same bioregion. MethodStandardised wildlife strike data were analysed from three airports (Avalon, Melbourne and Essendon Airports), in the Victorian Volcanic Plains bioregion, central Victoria, Australia. Ten discrete 1-year sampling periods from each airport were compared, spanning the period 2009–19. Bird data were comparable, and data on mammals were considered less reliable, so emphasis was placed on birds in the present study. ResultsIn total, 580 bird strikes were analysed, with the most commonly struck species being Australian magpie (Cracticus tibicen; 16.7%), Eurasian skylark (Alauda arvensis; 12.2%), Australian pipit (Anthus australis; 12.1%), masked lapwing (Vanellus miles; 5.9%), nankeen kestrel (Falco cenchroides; 5.0%), house sparrow (Passer domesticus; 4.8%), welcome swallow (Hirundo neoxena; 4.3%) and tree martin (Petrochelidon nigricans; 4.0%). The assemblage of birds struck by aircraft over the decade of study differed between airports. The most commonly struck species drove the assemblage differences between airports. Conclusions and implicationsIn the present study system, airports experienced discrete strike risk profiles, even though they are in the same bioregion. The airports examined differed in terms of air traffic movement rates, aircraft types, landscape context and bird hazard management effort. Given that strike risks profiles differ among airports, customised management at each airport, as is currently the case, is supported.

Abstract:
The Wedderburn meteorite from Victoria is a small nickel-rich iron belonging to the rare sLH subgroup of the IAB complex. Donated to the Mines Department in 1950, it came to public attention in 1953 when the initial description was published by Dr Austin Edwards in the Proceedings of the Royal Society of Victoria. Since then, pieces of the meteorite have been distributed to major institutions in Europe and North America, where leading researchers have investigated the meteorite’s unusual chemistry, mineralogy and microtexture in great detail. The recent approval of a new iron carbide mineral named edscottite, with the formula Fe5C2, in Wedderburn has prompted this review of the meteorite’s history, from its discovery to its current classification status.

Abstract:
In his 1867 review of two recent historical novels, Henry James worried that, barring “a second Walter Scott,” no modern mind could synthesize the increasingly scientific discipline of history and the imagination of fiction. “[S]tory-tellers are, for the most part, an illogical, loose-thinking, ill-informed race” (280), James teased, while the new historian – he refers to “writers of a purely scientific turn of mind” such as “Niebuhr and Mommsen, Gizot and Buckle” (278) – “works in the dark, with a contracted forehead and downcast eyes, on his hands and knees, as men work in coal-mines” (279). James's anxious jocularity does little to disguise his interest in (and intimidation before) the ascetic historian, particularly that new professional's willingness to “say sternly to his fancy: So far thou shalt go, and no further.” Why, James subsequently wondered, should the novelist “not [also] imprison his imagination, for the time, in a circle of incidents from which there is no arbitrary issue, and apply his ingenuity to the study of a problem to which there is but a single solution” (279)?

Abstract:
This article investigates an intermediary period in the Cape colony when the largely unknown convergence of British social and industrial capital around coal mining occurred in the Stormberg Mountains of the North Eastern Cape. Within the context of a triangular nexus of mining and its two major clients, the diamond mines at Kimberley and the newly arrived Cape Government Railway, a social coalescence of mainly British immigrants arose in the town of Molteno, exhibiting an distinctly British Victorian culture. This paper also shows how the town became a colonial enclave on the remote periphery of the Cape Colony, utilising a racialised class system, and the ways in which the singularity of Victorian society was emphasised by two surrounding cultures which were alien to the British. After the South African War ended, one of these cultures had begun to take root within the town. When the coal mines were brought to an end by the erratic orders of the Cape Government Railway and its access to superior and cheaper coal from Lewis and Marks at Viljoensdrift in the ZAR and the greater economic pull of the Rand gold mines which diverted labour to the north, this ‘colonial moment’ in the Stormberg was over.

Abstract:
Our project investigated a new method for the cryopreservation of honey bee (Apis mellifera) sperm cells (SC). Few methods have been developed and none achieve normal sex ratios in progeny. Recently, honey bee colonies have been decimated by colony collapse disorder and infestation by varroa bee mites. A bank of preserved SC might enable the creation of a seed stock for restoration of genetic diversity through AI (Cobey 1983 Am. Bee J. 123, 389–395). We investigated two freezing rates using two diluents and their effect on post-thaw survival of the SC. The slower freezing rate was chosen from a report with the highest success to date (Harbo 1983 Ann. Entomol. Soc. Am. 76, 890–891). The rapid freezing rate was a method developed by us. We reasoned that the small volumes of ejaculate made it potentially suitable for vitrification. The SC were frozen either in 40% Harbo's DMSO diluent containing 25% DMSO, 25% egg yolk, 50% buffer (1.1% NaH2PO4�H2O (w/v) and 0.845% Na2HPO4�2H2O (w/v)), and 60% semen; or in 50% glycerol-based diluent containing 9% glycerol, 24% egg yolk, 67% buffer (5.9% Tris (w/v), 0.8% glucose (w/v), and 3.2% citric acid (w/v)), and 50% semen. Ejaculates were collected by applying bilateral pressure to the abdomens of the drones causing endophallus eversion. About 1 µL (8 � 106 SC) of ejaculate was drawn into siliconized 50-µL capillary tubes fitted to a Hamilton threaded-plunger syringe preloaded with Fluorinert (Sigma, St. Louis, MO, USA). Micro-glass cryostraws (µC) were constructed by pulling Pasteur pipettes to a 230-µm internal diameter and keeping what was the tip end of the pipette as the large end of the µC. The large end was fitted with Silastic tubing to act as a bulb for drawing and expelling fluid. Three µC per treatment were filled with 5 µL of diluted ejaculate and sealed with Critoseal. The µC were inserted into 500-µL Cassou straws (IMV Technologies, L'Aigle, France), immersed in a water bath, and cooled from 21�C to 5�C over 2 h. A Freeze Control� programmable cryochamber (CryoLogic Pty. Ltd., Mulgrave, Victoria, Australia) was used to cool samples slowly from 5�C to –40�C at 3�C min–1. At –40�C, the cryostraws were plunged into liquid N2 (LN2). Rapid freezing was done by plunging µC into a LN2 vortex, created using a magnetic stir bar. The µC were reinserted into the Cassou straws, while still under LN2, for storage in an LN2 tank. The µC were thawed by removal from the Cassou straws and immediate immersion in a 35�C H2O bath. Survival rates were evaluated using a dual fluorescent staining system (Molecular Probes, Eugene, OR, USA) and fluorescent microscopy. The largest portion of live staining cells (93.18%) were treated with DMSO diluent using the rapid freezing. The remaining treatments ranked as follows: slow freezing with DMSO (78.84%), rapid freezing with glycerol (38.9%), and slow freezing with glycerol (26%). All treatments differed significantly (P < 0.01). Other studies state that queens inseminated with greater than 50% viable SC have a good probability of producing normally throughout a season. Therefore, our technique of rapid freezing in DMSO diluent might be useful to apiculturists.

Abstract:
Abstract Given his most famous account, “I can safely say that there is not a petticoat in the whole history” of his most well-known romance, King Solomon’s Mines (1885), H. Rider Haggard’s works have been mostly celebrated as significant examples of the representation of imperial masculinities in the late Victorian romance fiction. In this typical imperialist narrative, Africa provides a setting for British boys to become men (Brantlinger, 1988). This paper, however, suggests that this notion of male mobility is replaced by the portrayal of a female traveller in Haggard’s Benita: An African Romance (1906). Benita’s sea journey from Southampton to Durban also brings gender roles into question in Haggard’s long lost travel text. This article, thus, will explore Haggard’s work in the broad Victorian context of political, philosophical and racial beliefs, and investigate the role of female travellers in the construction of national identity.

Abstract:
For much of the nineteenth century in Britain, bona fide was a status applied to travelers more than three miles from home. Unlike locals, such travelers were allowed to drink at any hour and on any day, giving rise to a predictable but nonetheless striking phenomenon: the mid-Victorian booze cruise. The essay tracks the rise of traveling drinkers, while also charting the difficulty publicans had in verifying bona fide status. In the end, it uses the controversies and crimes around bona fides and the challenges faced by publicans to explore the uncertainty and, frequently, criminality surrounding nineteenth century commerce.

Abstract:
In 1996 Miles Taylor published an historiographical review of Chartism in which he argued that our understanding of the movement has stagnated since the publication of important research by Gareth Stedman Jones and Dorothy Thompson in 1983–4. Taylor suggests that the new cultural history of politics (or the ‘linguistic turn’) is to blame for this ‘impasse’, and argues that scholars should consolidate the work of Stedman Jones and Thompson. I argue that Chartist historians should continue to engage with contemporary approaches. The new political history sheds light on some persistent problems of interpretation which Taylor passes over. It also raises the possibility of extending the study of Chartism into the colonial realm, an area historians have not yet seriously broached. In conclusion, a sketch is given of the significance of Chartist political culture in one episode of protest in the Australian colony of Victoria in 1853.
