Journal ArticleDOI
Spatial scale, species diversity, and habitat structure: small mammals in Australian tropical rain forest
TL;DR: In this article, the Atherton Tableland in the Wet Tropics biogeographic region of northeastern Australia was studied and the relationship between the assemblage structure of ground-dwelling mammals and vegetation structure was examined.
Journal ArticleDOI
Optimizing Allocation of Management Resources for Wildlife
Helene Marsh,Andrew J. Dennis,Harry B. Hines,Alex S. Kutt,Keith R. McDonald,Ellen Weber,Stephen E. Williams,John Winter +7 more
TL;DR: Using ecological and social factors in addition to threat categories, a decision-support process is designed to assist policy makers in their allocation of resources for the management of native wildlife and to clarify the considerations leading to a priority listing.
Journal ArticleDOI
Importance of canopy connectivity for home range and movements of the rainforest arboreal ringtail possum (Hemibelideus lemuroides)
TL;DR: In this article, the authors tested the hypotheses that linear barriers affect the alignment of home ranges, use of habitat either side of linear barriers, and the crossing of them by the strictly arboreal lemuroid ringtail possum (Hemibelideus lemurusides), which is known to be vulnerable to habitat fragmentation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ecological correlates of folivore abundance in north Queensland rainforests
TL;DR: It is shown that only a relatively small proportion of north Queensland rainforests support abundant populations of the endemic folivorous marsupials, and variation in folivore abundance with geology is plausibly explained as a response to the nutritional quality of foliage.
Journal ArticleDOI
Community survey of the distribution of Lumholtz's Tree-kangaroo on the Atherton Tablelands, north-east Queensland
John Joseph Kanowski,Leasie Felderhof,G. Newell,T. Parker,C. Schmidt,B. Stirn,Robyn Wilson,John Winter +7 more
TL;DR: The survey has provided a much more comprehensive account of the distribution of the species than was previously available, and although the survey methodology is biased towards areas frequented by humans, these patterns are consistent with independent surveys.
