ABSTRACTJohann Hinteröcker was a Jesuit priest, a naturalist, a teacher, and an aspiring missionary to Australia’s Aboriginal people. He came from his native Austria to South Australia in 1866, and remained there until his work took him briefly to Tasmania, where he died in 1872. In those few short years, he established a national reputation for his pastoral work, and though his reputation dimmed over the years, he is not forgotten. Hinteröcker is less well known for his work as a naturalist, and reviewing his activities as a naturalist is thus the primary aim of this paper.KEYWORDS: Johann HinteröckerSouth AustralianaturalistAboriginal AustraliansJesuitNorwoodFlinders IslandSevenhill AcknowledgmentsMany have contributed to this article: some have provided translations from German (Julia Jones, Adelaide; Brigitte Pfeiffer, Mochenwangen) and from Latin (Kevin Horsell, Adelaide; Tony Burton, Sydney), some have provided sources (Michael Head, Melbourne; Wilhelm Remes, Linz; Juergen Kellerman, Adelaide; Stephanie Hellman, Adelaide), and many have provided encouragement.

ABSTRACT We report the establishment of the beautiful noctuid moth Chasmina pulchra in southern Australia following repeated self-introduction. First recorded in 1955 as a vagrant in suburban Adelaide, specimens have been collected or observed at an increasing rate since then. We have recently located a breeding population on the Adelaide Plains where the larvae feed on the introduced kurrajong tree Brachychiton populneus (Malvaceae), although other Brachychiton species are likely to be exploited elsewhere in its range. Native to the drier parts of eastern Australia, this drought-tolerant tree has been widely grown as a specimen or amenity tree in suburban Adelaide since the mid-nineteenth century. Chasmina pulchra appears to have an annual life cycle in South Australia, with adult moths active in the summer, December – March. Larvae cause characteristic scalloping on the leaf margins of the food plant. We present evidence that this tropical to subtropical native species has expanded its range into the southern half of the continent in the last few decades. We also report the first specimen collected in northern Tasmania, associated with a weather system that could have facilitated its movement across Bass Strait. Southward incursions are associated with both wetter and drier than average monthly rainfall totals just prior to the event. Together with recent records from southwestern Australia well beyond the natural range of a putative food plant, we conclude that C. pulchra is a highly dispersive species, behaviour consistent with at least one other species of Chasmina in the Old World.

ABSTRACT A total of 210 vials of nematodes collected from four species of Perameles (representing 15 individuals of P. bougainville, 83 of P. gunnii, 54 of P. nasuta and 19 of P. pallescens) held in the Australian Helminthological Collection of the South Australian Museum were examined. Nematodes were identified and parasite assemblages of the four hosts were compared. Using only the number of nematodes identified to species as an indicator of diversity, the nematode community of P. bougainville was the most depauperate (4 species) followed by P. gunnii (11 species), P. pallescens (12 species) and P. nasuta (20 species). None of the species were found in all four hosts. Excluding P. bougainville, Sorensen’s index of similarity showed that P. gunnii and P. pallescens had the least similar, 0.26, and P. pallescens and P. nasuta the most similar, 0.50, nematode communities. Linstowinema warringtoni Smales, 1997, Mackerrastrongylus peramelis (Johnston & Mawson, 1938) and Peramelistrongylus skedastos Mawson, 1960 were found in three hosts, P. gunnii, P. nasuta and P. pallescens. Each of the four hosts had a unique species profile: four species of Physaloptera being found in P. nasuta, three in P. pallescens, one in P. gunnii and none in P. bougainville. Of the trichostrongyloids, Mackerrastrongylus peramelis was the most prevalent in P. pallescens and Peramelistrongylus skedastos in P. gunnii and P. nasuta. The influence of nematode collection techniques, sample sizes and host geographic range and ecology may have had on the assemblages we observed is discussed.
