Publisher's Synopsis
More than 300 species of Australian native animals - mammals, birds, reptiles and amphibians - use tree hollows. Many of these species are threatened, or are in decline, because of land-use practices such as grazing, timber production and firewood collection. This work is an account of the dependent fauna of Australia, and introduces a considerable amount of new data on development of hollows, selection by fauna, pests and introduced species, and artificial hollows.
