We evaluate if the iconic Australian Zebra Finch (Taeniopygia guttata) has a unique physiology or if its metabolic, thermal and hygric physiology are similar to other Australian poephiline finches, by comparing it with three other species, the arid-h

We used a simple and objective method of determining home range size for individuals of a bird community in southeast Australia. The community consisted of 11 species, which represented nine genera, five families, and a range of diets and nesting beh

Respiratory water loss during metabolic gas exchange is an unavoidable cost of living for terrestrial insects. It has been suggested to depend on several factors, such as the mode of gas exchange (convective vs. diffusive), species habitat (aridity),

Moisture-harvesting lizards, such as the Australian thorny devil Moloch horridus, have remarkable adaptations for inhabiting arid regions. Their microstructured skin surface, with channels in between overlapping scales, enables them to collect water

Mammals are the so-called'pinnacle'group of vertebrates, successfully colonising virtually all terrestrial environments as well as the air (bats) and sea (especially pinnipeds and cetaceans). How mammals function and survive in these diverse environm

Extreme weather events (e.g. heatwaves and droughts) can expose animals to environmental conditions outside of their zones of physiological tolerance, and even resistance, and impact long-term viability of populations and species. We examined the the

Conservation detection dogs have been widely used for finding scats, retreat sites and specific plant and animal species for a variety of purposes, including monitoring, management, biosecurity and eradication programs. Their cost-effectiveness appea

Conradie et al. (2020) recently modelled the vulnerability of Australian arid birds to a changing climate. While the approach used by Conradie et al. (2020) is valuable, we argue that key assumptions in their study are poorly supported and the risks

We examine here the effects on evaporative water loss, at and below thermoneutrality, of perturbing the evaporative environment for the red-capped parrot (Purpureicephalus spurius) by modifying the ambient relative humidity or the diffusive propertie
