	abstract = {The abundance of dung beetles (ScarabaeidacScarabaeinae and Aphodiinae) during winter was estimated from captures at dung and carrion baited pitfall traps at 40 sites in native heath and forest habitats in the south of southwestern Australia. Beetles were attracted predominantly to dung baits. Of the 17 species trapped 16 occurred in heath, 10 in open forest fiarrah) and 10 in tall open forest (karri) habitats. Beetles of the tribes Onthophagini and Aphodiini were attracted predominantly to dung baits and were more abundant in heath and open forest than in tall open forest, while beetles of the tribe Scarabaeini were attracted equally to dung and carrion baits, and their abundance did not differ significantly in the three habitat types. },

	abstract = {A South African predatory mite, Macrochelesperegrinus, phoretic on dung beetles (Scarabaeidae), was released at 2 sites in northern Australia as part of a programme on the biological control of the buffalo fly, Haematobia irritans exigua De Meijere and the bush fly, Musca vetustissima Walker. Releases were made at Rockhampton, Queensland and at Adelaide River, Northern Territory, in December 1980 and February 1981 respectively. Establishment was achieved immediately and after 14 months the area colonised around each release site was approximately 180,000 km2. },
