Abstract:
AbstractSpores of the dung fungus Sporormiella have been suggested to indicate the presence, perhaps also the abundance of past megaherbivore populations. Nonetheless, basic studies demonstrating a correlation between Sporormiella concentration in lacustrine sediments and modern herbivore abundance are lacking. This study of Sporormiella representation in grazed and ungrazed landscapes provides supporting evidence for the application of Sporormiella as an indicator of megaherbivore presence and abundance in ancient landscapes. However, Sporormiella representation is spatially sensitive to the distance from the dung source. In lakes where Sporomiella are abundant in shoreline sediments, they decline sharply with increasing distance from the lake edge. Although this study provides supporting evidence for the application of Sporormiella as a proxy for herbivore presence and abundance, independent proxies should be applied in conjunction with Sporormiella to control for changes in lake size.

Abstract:
AbstractSpores of the dung fungus Sporormiella become abundant following the historic introduction of grazing herbivores at seven sites in the western United States. During the Holocene they are generally rare, but at six sites Sporormiella spores are abundant before the extinction of Pleistocene megaherbivores ca. 11,000 yr B.P. Sporormiella spores are directly linked to extinct megaherbivores by their presence in mammoth dung preserved in Bechan Cave, Southern Utah. Their abundance in late-glacial sediments may reflect the abundance of megaherbivores during Quaternary, thereby indicating the age of Pleistocene extinctions where other indicators are absent.

Abstract:
AbstractOne major challenge in the study of late-Quaternary extinctions (LQEs) is providing better estimates of past megafauna abundance. To show how megaherbivore population size varied before and after the last extinctions in interior Alaska, we use both a database of radiocarbon-dated bone remains (spanning 25–0 ka) and spores of the obligate dung fungus, Sporormiella, recovered from radiocarbon-dated lake-sediment cores (spanning 17–0 ka). Bone fossils show that the last stage of LQEs in the region occurred at about 13 ka ago, but the number of megaherbivore bones remains high into the Holocene. Sporormiella abundance also remains high into the Holocene and does not decrease with major vegetation changes recorded by arboreal pollen percentages. At two sites, the interpretation of Sporormiella was enhanced by additional dung fungal spore types (e.g., Sordaria). In contrast to many sites where the last stage of LQEs is marked by a sharp decline in Sporormiella abundance, in interior Alaska our results indicate the continuance of megaherbivore abundance, albeit with a major taxonomic turnover (including Mammuthus and Equus extinction) from predominantly grazing to browsing dietary guilds. This new and robust evidence implies that regional LQEs were not systematically associated with crashes of overall megaherbivore abundance.

Abstract:
Historical fossilised spores of Sporomiella, a coprophilous fungus that only grows on the dung of herbivores. has been used to infer unknown herbivore abundances or biomass and identity periods of mega-herbivore extinction in the palaeo-record. ln Africa. however. mega-herbivores are still extant and there is therefore a unique opportunity to calibrate Sporomiella abundance against known herbivore biomass. This study was carried out within the Hluhluwe-lmfolozi Game Reserve, KwaZulu-Natal South Africa (28°00'-28°26'S. 31°43'-32°00'E. Fig 2(a) and (6)). We evaluated the relationship between Sporomiella concentration and herbivore abundance. as indicated by total dung abundances. We investigated three aspects of this relationship: [1] the relationship between Sporomiella abundance and total herbivore dung abundance. [2] the relationship between Sporomiella and individual herbivore species, where we also divided all the herbivores into Mega-herbivores and Meso-herbivores to determine their relationship with Sporomiella densities. [3] finally, we tested the differences between the regions of the reserve by comparing the different areas of the park, as each system has its own unique drivers (Hluhluwe (fire driven), Imfolozi (herbivore driven) and the corridor (fire and herbivore driven)), with the concentration of Sporomiella. We found no significant relationships between Sporomiella concentration and total herbivore dung abundances, which suggests that the fungus may be selectively growing on certain herbivore species rather than on all herbivore dung and / or the amount of dung for each species is not accurately reflected by dung counts [because amount of dung per species isn't accurately reflected by dung counts?]. This isn't reflected in clung counts. When the sites that had zero Sporomiella were excluded from the analysis. Sporomiella concentration was significantly related to elephant and white rhino dung abundance, which could be related to site specific condition. Mega-herbivores and meso-herbivores dung abundance showed no significant relationship with Sporomiella concentrations. implying that neither group is the main contributors to Sporomiella concentration. There was also no significant difference in Sporomiella-concentration between the different areas of the park, providing no evidence that spores are differentially distributed throughout the park. Sporomiella concentrations showed no significant difference between the different types of vegetation and grasses within the park. This suggests that the spores are not specific to certain vegetation or grass types.

The drivers of the Australia-wide megafaunal extinction during the late Pleistocene remains poorly resolved. Hypotheses include individual or synergistic combinations of climate fluctuations, human impacts through hunting or habitat alteration by landscape burning. Moreover, the relationship between extinction dynamics and long term glacial - interglacial timescales is not yet understood. Using a series of complementary geochronology, palaeoecological and geochemical techniques on a sedimentary sequence in Alexandra Cave, Naracoorte, this study provides improved reconstructions of past climates in south-east South Australia around the time of megafaunal extinction. Ten luminescence dating samples constrain the age of the sedimentary sequence to 17.7 – 106.3 ka. Palaeoenvironmental reconstructions undertaken using charcoal, carbon isotopes and geochemical analysis reveal high fire frequency and precipitation during Marine Isotope Stage (MIS) 5, while MIS 4 and the Last Glacial Maximum were arid, with low fire frequency. MIS 3 was wet, with little fluctuation in the environment, with the exception of a change in biomass burning at 36 – 50 ka. These findings suggest that climate change likely played a minor role in the demise of megafauna locally, whereas changes in fire regime could have acted as a more significant driver or consequence of megafauna extinction.
