Groundwater estuaries of salt lakes: buried pools of endemic biodiversity on the western plateau, Australia
Subterranean or groundwater estuaries occur in porous and cavernous substrates where groundwater abuts the ocean. Like surface estuaries, they are strongly stratified, temporally and hydrochemically heterogene...

Biochemical differentiation among karyotypic forms of Australian Rattus
Isozyme electrophoresis of up to 55 loci, and microcomplement fixation of albumin were used to assess the extent of structural gene divergence among karyotypic forms of Australian Rattus. The results show that th...

G-banding homologies of some Australian rodents
G-banding comparisons of 26 species in 10 genera of three tribes of Australian rodents show that at least one representative of each of the three tribes has autosomal complements that are indistinguishable on ...

Polymorphism of the X-chromosome, Y-chromosome and autosomes in the Australian hop** mice, Notomys alexis, N. cervinus and N. fuscus (Rodentia, Muridae)
All three species of Notomys so far studied possess a diploid number of 48. Many elements in the karyotype of N. alexis are polymorphic due to variation in heterochromatin, but the variation is most marked in aut...

Chromosome evolution in Australian rodents
A total of 219 wild caught specimens representing 12 of the currently recognised 13 species and subspecies of Australian Rattus have been karyotyped. No two species possessed karyotypes in common, most species an...

A histochemical study of amines in palatal tissue from normal and glycosuric mice
A fluorescence histochemical technique for localizing catecholamines was applied to palatal tissue obtained from laboratory mice and from glycosuric and nonglycosuric Australian hop** mice. Specific catechol...
