Remains of Mammals, Including Notomys Longicaudatus (Gould) (Rodentia:Muridae), in Owl Pellets From the Flinders Ranges, S.a.

Abstract

Owl pellets were collected at 3 sites in the northern Flinders Ranges, S. Australia, from deposits in caves. Food items included rodents and marsupials that are no longer found there and some of which are thought to be extinct. There were remains of Mus musculus among them, indicating that the other species had lived in the Flinders Ranges at least until the 19th century.
