Current Work edit
- I am currently involved in a project with the Griffith University in Queensland, on Wallum and Acid frogs along the east coast of Australia. This project involves the Molecular systematics and Phylogeography of the following species (key species in bold):
If anyone knows of any locations of Litoria freycineti around Sydney, you could help the project by leaving me a note on my talk page. Thanks.
- Swabbing of threatened species of frogs around Sydney for chytrid fungus, particularly the Heath Frog, Litoria littlejohni.
Survey Work edit
- I have surveyed the following Green and Golden Bell Frog populations in Sydney:
- Kogarah Golf Course during March 2005
- Homebush Bay during November and December of 2005
- Long Reef Golf Course during November 2005
- South Kurnell during January 2006
- Surveyed land around Port Stephens for the Green and Golden Bell Frog and Green Thighed Frog
- Surveyed with the National Parks and Wildlife Service, through much of Scheyville National Park in western Sydney.
Caring for Frogs edit
- I have been involved with "rescuing" and quarantining displaced (lost) frogs that have been moved from their homes in northern Queensland while hiding in fruit produce (mostly bananas).
- I own four frog (2 Green Tree Frogs and 2 Peron's Tree Frogs) under a Amphibian Keepers license. I have now had my frogs for over 4 years.
