Cuscuses.
(maculatus)
At the "tip" spotted cuscus was only moderately common.
We never got a fully adult male. The eyes are
brilliantly . The animals in their scrub, rarely venturing
out with "four". (orientalis)
No gray cuscuses found at the "tip".
Iron Range proved to be rather rich in Spotted
Cuscuses. An excellent series of all stages in both
sexes was secured.
Three brown (gray) cuscuses were collected at
Iron Range. The Spotted Cuscuses were eating
the fruits of the Leichart Tree, Nauclea of the
Rubiaceae
Spotted Cuscuses were apparently rarer at the western
side of the scrub: only 2 were collected.
Two brown cuscuses shot by Van at Shepherd's Batting Site,
Peach River; also others taken by Don Verna at same
place. Pouch young in 94.
