	abstract = {The quantity of dung buried and shredded by dung beetles at four sites in south-eastern Australia was found to be positively correlated with the dry weight (biomass) of beetles in the pads. Each of the four sites has two abundant native species of dung beetles, and one to five well-established introduced species present. At Uriarra, where only one introduced species is common, a mean of 7.21+/-1.94\% (1990-91) and 6.01+/-1.31\% (1991-92) of the dung was buried per week. At Fyshwick, with two common introduced species of dung beetles, 22.27+/-4.03\% (1990-91) and 12.04+/-2.72\% (1991-92) of the dung was buried per week. Braidwood, with four introduced species, had a mean of 15.81+/-2.82\% (1991-92) weekly dung buried, and Araluen, with five introduced species, had 30.18+/-8.73\% (1992-93) dung buried per week. Dung beetle numbers were low at all sites during the first half of 1991-92 season due to a drought throughout the region. Dung shredding averaged less than 12\% over the seasons at all sites, but fluctuated from 0 to 70\%, depending mainly on beetle numbers in the dung pads on individual occasions. Increasing numbers of exotic dung beetles throughout the pastoral areas of Australia should result in increased amounts of dung buried and shredded, with correspondingly increased benefits to Australian agriculture.},

In pads of cattle dung containing only the native fauna, fly survival ranged from 0.3 \% to 12.5 \%. The addition of 2 species of exotic dung beetles, Euoniticellus fulvus (Goeze) and Onthophagus taurus (Schreber) to field pads, in numbers similar to those observed at the collection site, reduced fly survival to between 0.3 \% and 4.4 \%.

	abstract = {Onthophagus australis (Guerin) is predominantly univoltine at two sites in south-eastern Australia, with peaks of activity in spring when most oviposition takes place, and in autumn when the new generation emerges. It overwinters mainly in the adult stage, and populations decline during summer droughts. The optimum temperature for oviposition is between 20 and 25"C, and the beetle produces food balls intermittently throughout life. The threshold temperature for development was estimated to be 5.2"C, and 1612 day-degrees PC) are required for development from egg to adult. In the laboratory, 100 beetles in a 1-L dung pad are able to reduce bush fly survival by 74\%, and reduce the size of the fly puparia by 18\%. In spring, when bush flies first build up their populations in the field, numbers of 0. australis did not often reach 100 per pad, thus limiting their usefulness for the biological control of the bush fly.},
