Island invertebrate responses to single‐ and multi‐species invasive rodent eradications
Eradications of rodents on islands are a powerful tool for conservation, but rarely are the responses of invertebrates quantified post‐eradication, despite being the preferred prey of mice. Here we analyzed pre‐ and post‐eradication invertebrate survey results for two sub‐Antarctic islands where mice had recently been eradicated; Antipodes Island where

Fleas From the Northern Hairy‐Nosed Wombat and Other Mammalian Hosts of Australia
ABSTRACT One of us (DKM) amassed a collection of 283 adult fleas (18 species) from donations by staff of the Queensland National Parks and Wildlife Service and other mammalogists, over 20 years (1967–87). Among this large collection were the first fleas to be found on three species of Australian mammals: (i) Lasiorhinus krefftii, the northern hairy ...
