Programmed unmanned aerial vehicles show great potential for monitoring marine megafauna in specific areas of interest

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, Volume 12, Issue 3, Page 368-387, June 2026.
Targeted conservation measures are contingent on robust knowledge of spatio‐temporal animal distribution in areas of interest. We explore unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) transect monitoring as a novel method for standardized digital aerial surveys of marine megafauna by investigating the fine‐resolution spatio‐temporal distribution of harbour porpoises ...

Ecological genetics of dugongs (Dugong dugon) in Queensland [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Effective management of species is paramount to their survival in the face of ever-increasing threats. To ensure appropriate conservation management, ongoing monitoring of a species’ dispersal patterns is required to assess the impact potential barriers can have on limiting the exchange of genetic material between populations.

Seagrass Sampling Methods in a Community‐Based Setting, A Comparative Analysis

open access: yesAquatic Conservation: Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems, Volume 36, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Effective monitoring of seagrass is essential for the conservation of this critical marine ecosystem. The choice of monitoring method depends on balancing accuracy, efficiency, cost and accessibility, especially in contexts requiring community engagement and ownership.

Ecoacoustics for context‐rich direct and indirect trophic interaction data and ecological network construction

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 17, Issue 5, Page 1489-1505, May 2026.
Abstract Understanding species interactions is critical for ecology and conservation, yet conventional network construction methods often lack spatiotemporal resolution and important contextual information. The growing field of ecoacoustics enables remote sensing across large spatiotemporal scales and the monitoring of otherwise cryptic communities ...

Long-distance oceanic movement of a solitary dugong (Dugong dugon) to the Cocos (Keeling) Islands [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
In this paper, we report on the arrival of a small (2 m long) male dugong (Dugong dugon) to the Cocos (Keeling) Islands (12° 12' S, 96° 54' E), Indian Ocean.

First Report of Marinomyxa spp. (Rhizaria: Endomyxa: Phytomyxea) Infection in Seagrasses Halophila beccarii and Halophila decipiens: Supporting Evidence for a Long‐Standing Symbiosis

open access: yesPlant Pathology, Volume 75, Issue 3, May–June 2026.
A survey of phytomyxid parasites in seagrasses of the genus Halophila reveals previously unrecognised diversity and a widespread presence of Marinomyxa within Halophila meadows, supporting a tight co‐evolutionary relationship between the two genera. ABSTRACT Marinomyxa is a genus of obligate intracellular parasitic protists known to infect tropical ...

On the Placentation of the Halicore Dugong [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the Royal Society of Edinburgh, 1890
(Abstract.)The only observations hitherto recorded on the placentation of the Dugong are by Paul Harting, of Utrecht, in 1878, who examined the foetal membranes of a foetus 27.8 cent. long. He stated that the placenta was diffused and non-deciduate.The gravid uterus described in this communication was presented to the author by C. W. de Vis, Esq., M.A.,
