SUMMARYThomas, D. G., and A. J. Dartnall. 1971. Ecological aspects of the feeding behaviour of two calidritine sandpipers wintering in south-eastern Tasmania. Emu 71: 20–26.Calidris ferrugineaandC. ruficollisare congeneric species wintering in the same tidal habitat. They do not compete when most densely concentrated during the early stages of the ebb, because C.ferrugineaforages usually below the water's edge andC. ruficollisabove it. AlsoC. ferrugineagets most of its food at a greater depth below the substrate surface. That ecological separation does not necessarily give rise to dietary differences is shown by the broad overlap of the items found in the stomachs. This applies to size and species of food-item. BothC. ferrugineaandC. ruficollisare largely opportunistic feeders, eating all suitable items encountered within a narrow range of size.

SUMMARYFord. J. 1971. Distribution and taxonomy of southern birds in the Great Victoria Desert. Emu 71: 27–36. Certain birds, usually associated with the malice and sclerophyllous woodlands of south-western Australia, south eastern Australia and Eyre Peninsula, also occur in the Great Victoria Desert, vizGlossopsitta porphyrocephala, Neophema splendida, Cinclosoma castonotum, Myiagra inquieta, Microeca leucophaea, Pachycrphala inornata, Climacteris rufa, Pardalotus xanthopygus, Strepera versicolorandGymnorhina tibicen. The distribution, habitats and subspecific status of these species are discussed. The Great Victoria Desert is an avenue for the continuous distribution of these birds between Fyre Peninsula and the Southwest. Populations of most of these species on the eastern and western sides of the Nullarbor Plain have not diverged subspecifically from one another.
