Daquiridas. We have seen no truly wild dasyure (May 19). Yet there animals at times make themselves quite at home with man. They live among the timbers of the R.I.P. What & feed on left over fish & hair. One (purchased by me) was caught by faring an oar cast thrown on it. They are said to inhabit abandoned army huts, stacks of empty pressure drums, particularly to like old empty tires. Dick Hollands insisted they form cockwheels. They appear to inhabit a low, open forest; not scrubby rainforest. The male caught by me had eyes which shone well. The total taken in the "Tip" area was four- all. Saturellus hallucatus. Three were in houses, one in an old iron barge stranded on shore. Go Tazza. The next Saturellus were taken at Jam traps and Brown's Creek where they were moderately common. They were reported from Portland Roads, but we did not occur any. Claws, apparently only matched by their own species, were found in the stomachs - also remains of levard, centipede, lair, vegetatin. The cranial formula is 4-4=8; the pouch color of a vixen female light purplish pink. At Brown's Creek two males were caught in two steel traps attached to a common stake. How? Did the second attack the first trapped one with cannibalistic intent and himself get caught also. Both were considerably bitten by morning. Van trapped one at Werlock. Two taken at Coen, - one trapped (very poor & emaciated) one from follow log 8 miles n.w. of Coen. Two trapped on black gum-front killiains at Helwale. One at Black Pointers,
