Mentha australis is a low-growing herb that thrives on the riverbank and in other damp, boggy and/or shaded areas - hence why it is affectionately known as Native River Mint. How to grow Native River Mint needs regular watering and a potting mix for native plants to grow its best. Be s...
appropriating small but vital parts of the land for their own exclusive use (waterholes and soaks in particular), and introducing sheep, rabbits and cattle, all three of which ate out previously fertile areas and degraded the ability of the land to carry the native animals that were vital to...
Gammage reveals how early European explorers noted how land across Australia looked like parkland with sprawling grassy areas within woodland and walking paths, evoking an English estate. This is because Australia’s Aboriginal peoples systematically managed the land, using fire and native plant life-c...
Alignment of deduced amino acid sequences of the α1 and α2 domains of bat MHC class I loci with human HLA-A for comparison. The shaded residues in the α1 domain correspond to a putative natural killer (NK) receptor-binding region. Other designations: d, cysteines in the α2 domains...
Most Australian honeyeaters feed also on insects and are not limited to nectar [64], so they can persist in areas and through seasons when bees are absent. Pollinator abundance might also be influenced by the presence of other species of flowering plants. Coexistence of peas in a community ...

Dubbed the 'honeypot effect'—a team of scientists from around Australia have shown that providing woody habitat, or 'snags', for native fish in the Murray River increases their population size.
