Brush Tailed Possum The brush tailed phascogale is a agile animal and it can climb very well. The Brush Tailed Phascogales sceintific name is Phascogale Calura it is a great leaper. Phascogales eat lots of things like insects, ants, spiders, beetles, centipedes, cockroaches, eucalypt nectar and small vertebrates. www.wamuranss.qld.edu.au /aussie_animals/aussie_animals/aussie_Animals/aussie_Animals/brush_tailed_phascogale.htm

Animal Info - Red-tailed Phascogale Most of the reserves where the red-tailed phascogale is more commonly found have not been burned for many years (20 years or more) and, as a consequence, carry a climax vegetation community which provides it with potential nest sites and with sufficiently dense foliage for protection and foraging. The occurrence of the red-tailed phascogale in areas where plants that contain fluoracetate also occur may be a result of the protection these toxic plants provide from competition with livestock and from predation by introduced carnivores. The red-tailed phascogale is an opportunistic feeder, preying on a wide range of insects and spiders, small birds and small mammals. www.animalinfo.org /species/phascalu.htm

Brush-tailed Phascogale Similar Species :A similar species is the Red-tailed Phascogale. Description : It is a rat sized creature with a black bottle brush like tail. It is smaller than the brushtail and has a less brushy tail. web.apolloparkps.vic.edu.au /Content/grade_area/pegasus/pegasus_2002/English/Fauna_guide_2002/mammals/brush_tailed_phascogale.html

Brush-tailed Phascogale (Phascogale tapoatafa) The Brush-tailed Phascogale is found along the eastern seaboard to the western slopes of the Dividing Range, from southern Queensland to Victoria. The Brush-tailed Phascogale primarily inhabits dry sclerophyll forests and woodlands with hollow-bearing trees and sparse ground cover. I have grey fur above and cream to white fur underneath, large naked ears, long sharp claws and a black ‘bottle-brush’ tail with hairs up to 5.5 cm long. www.reec.nsw.edu.au /2002/stu7-12/biodiver/biotext/tsphasco.htm

Brush Tailed phascogale The litter size for the Brush-Tailed Phascogale is usually around 3 to 8 babies. The Brush-Tailed Phascogale's mating season occurs between May and July, during which time the males can travel long distances well beyond there territories. Within New South Wales, the Brush-Tailed Phascogale appears most abundant in the north-east and south-east of the state, particularly within the forest habitats of the Great Dividing Range. www.hawkesdalecol.vic.edu.au /global/endangered/jacob.htm

News in Science - Genetic research reveals new species - 05/06/2000 The researchers also found that the Brush-tailed Phascogale found in northern Australia was also an entirely separate species from the eastern Phascogale. Phascogales are solitary, arboreal animals with a cream belly and a conspicuous 'bottle-brush' tail. Phascogales breed in winter then all the males die. www.abc.net.au /science/news/stories/s134710.htm

ADW: Phascogale tapoatafa: Information Brush-tailed phascogales prefer eucalyptus forests in Australia for foraging grounds and nesting sites. Phascogale topoatafa has a fragmented distribution, being found in various parts of Australia, including northern and southwestern Western Australia, northernmost Northern Territory, northern and southeastern Queensland, eastern New South Wales, the southern parts of Victoria, the Cape York peninsula, and isolated parts of South Australia (Nowak, 1991). Phascogale tapoatafa is considered effective at helping to control insect and rodent pest populations since it is a natural predator of these animals. animaldiversity.ummz.umich.edu /accounts/phascogale/p._tapoatafa.html

Brush-tailed phascogale survey A brush-tailed Phascogale showing its impressive tail with hairs up to 40 mm long. Phascogales and their close relatives the antechinuses are well known for the early death of the males, worn out by the frenetic breeding season. Phascogales have been recorded in the survey area but not in recent decades. www.fnpw.com.au /enews4/phascogale.htm

Brush-tailed Phascogale - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia The Brush-tailed Phascogale ( Phascogale tapaotafa) is a rat-sized, Dasyurid, characterized by a tuft of black silky hairs on the terminal portion of the tail. It has a widespread but fragmented distribution throughout all states of www.wikipedia.org /wiki/Brush-tailed_Phascogale

The Victorian Naturalist 120 (2) Cover: A Brush-tailed Phascogale Phascogale tapoatafa with a group of Sugar Gliders Petaurus breviceps that are feeding on honey. Phascogales appear to be patchily distributed through the forest and in very low density due to the lack of suitable tree hollows. Phascogales were found to mainly use nestboxes in the absence of suitable natural tree hollows. home.vicnet.net.au /~fncv/vicnat/120_2.htm

Phascogale Brush-tailed Phascogales being arboreal (tree dwellers) they eat insects, spiders, ants, beetles, centipedes even cockroaches, mainly found on trunks and branches of rough-barked trees and fallen logs, usually during the night. Also sometimes called the Brush-tailed Marsupial Mouse or the Red-tailed Wambenger, Its scientific Name is Phascogale calura The red-tailed phascogale lives in trees (arboreal) and moves around mainly at night (nocturnal) Though it is a great leaper and climber in trees, it forages for food mainly on the ground It seems that most places where the red-tailed phascogale is found have not been burned for 20 years so there is a good number of large hollow trees providing potential nest sites and plenty of dense foliage for protection and foraging. home.iprimus.com.au /readman/phas.htm

Keeping Marsupials : Keeping and Breeding Marsupials in Captivity, Maintaining Injured and Orphaned Wildlife in Captivity, Animal Husbandry, Australian Marsupials, Australian Mammals, Marsupial Conservation The Phascogale feeds mainly on spiders, insects, small mammals and birds and during the day they can be found in their preferred nesting site of a tree hollow, which is usually lined with bark, leaves, fur and feathers. Bettongs will occasionally climb and Phascogales will occasionally go down to the floor, so there may be some overlapping in the two species territory. Its distinguishing features are its long snout, grey colouration above with cream below and, as its name implies, it has a beautiful black bushy tail. www.marsupialsociety.org /members/html/01au05.html

News in Science - Rare find fires hope for mammals - 09/10/2002 The Brush-tailed Phascogale seeks out hollows in trees for breeding, sleeping, and sheltering from fires, which can disappear quickly if their habitat is burnt every year. Two rare marsupials – the Golden Bandicoot and the Brush-tailed Phascogale – have reappeared in the Kimberley, delighting wildlife researchers who have not seen them for nearly 20 years. Both the Golden Bandicoot and the Brush-tailed Phascogale have also been identified as being at risk from climate change, as rainfall and temperature patterns shift their restricted habitats over the next few decades. www.abc.net.au /science/news/stories/s696658.htm

Welcome to Perth Zoo! Perth Zoo displays Brush-tailed Phascogales as part of its Nocturnal House display. The Brush-tailed Phascogale is a small carnivorous marsupial (dasyurid) with a highly arboreal nature. Here they remain confined to isolated forest or woodland patches on soils too poor for agriculture and are hence highly vulnerable to local extinctions through the reduced genetic variability. www.perthzoo.wa.gov.au /text/wildlife_facts_au_phascog.html

Northern Territory Webmaster: Profile Fact Sheet Red Tailed Phascogale Like its cousin the Brush tailed phascogale it has a brush of black hairs on the end of its tail - though not as bushy. Life is short for the male Red-tailed Phascogale; they die at one year old after a short, intensive mating season. The Red-tailed Phascogale is an agile climber and skilful aerialist and although it is largely arboreal (tree dwelling), it finds most of its food on the ground. pandora.nla.gov.au /parchive/2000/Z2000-Nov-28/www.nccnsw.org.au/member/tsn/context/profiles/376.html

Chapter 10: GIS Analysis Results A rated species are Brush-tailed Phascogale ( Phascogale tapoatafa), Common Brushtail Possum ( Trichosurus vulpecula), Southern Brown Bandicoot ( Isoodon obesulus), Brush-tailed Bettong ( Bettongia penicillata), Burrowing Bettong ( Bettongia lesueur), Rufus Rat Kangaroo ( Aepyprymnus rufescens), Whiptail Wallaby ( Macropus parryi), Swamp Wallaby ( Wallabia bicolor), and Eastern Grey Kangaroo ( Macropus giganteus). Brush-tailed Phascogale is a carnivore eating the variety of arthropods, insects and small vertebrates (e.g., young Greater Gliders) that live in the tree canopy. Brush-tailed Phascogale ( Phascogale tapoatafa), Common Wombat ( Vombatus ursinus), Red-necked Pademelon ( Thylogale thetis), and Swamp Wallaby ( Wallabia bicolor) can potentially find food requirements within land system QhMe. www.vvm.com /~huckerby/DOCUMENTS/97chap10.html

X Brush-tailed Phascogale, Common Brushtail Possum, and the Northern Brown Bandicoot are available in all nine land systems but other species vary in the number of land systems they are potentially available in when compared to the whole research area (Table X.2.1: X.4). Since the distribution of potential availability is the same between the catchments, the average potential availability of Brush-tailed Phascogale and therefore the encounter rate, is the same for both catchments. Subsequently, Brush-tailed Phascogale would be expected to be represented in both archaeological fauna assemblages with similar minimum number of individuals (MNIs). www.vvm.com /~huckerby/DOCUMENTS/strateg1.html
