摘要:
SummaryThe recorded autumnal migration of the Yellow-faced Honeyeater in south-eastern Australia is summarized. Details are given of the southwards migration of the species through Kingscliff. Hastings Point and Brunswick areas of coastal north-eastern N.S.W. during the autumn of 1965. The simultaneous large-scale northwards migration through Hastings Point, Kingscliff and Surfers Paradise, Qld. is also detailed. Mist-netting and banding activities on the banksia heath near Hastings Point are summarized. The movements of other species noted migrating with the Yellow-faced Honeyeaters during the autumn-winter of 1965 are discussed. It is suggested that the MacPherson Range is at least partly responsible for the abnormal migratory pattern of the Yellow-faced Honeyeaters during 1965, while the coastal strip of northern N.S.W. appears to be part of a normal northwards autumnal migratory route. No evidence of southwards migration in the spring of 1965 was noted.
