Taxonomy [top] Kingdom Phylum Class Order Family ANIMALIA CHORDATA MAMMALIA DIPROTODONTIA MACROPODIDAE Scientific Name: Onychogalea lunata Species Authority Infra-specific Authority: (Gould, 1841) Common Name/s: English – Crescent Nailtail Wallaby, Crescent Nail-tailed Wallaby, Wurrung French – Onychogale Croissant, Wallaby À Queue Cornée Spanish – Canguro Rabipelado Occidental Assessment Information [top] Red List Category & Criteria: Extinct ver 3.1 Year Assessed: 2008 Assessor/s Burbidge, A. & Johnson, K. Evaluator/s: Lamoreux, J. & Hilton-Taylor, C. (Global Mammal Assessment Team) Justification: Listed as Extinct. The last reliable records of this species were from central Australia in the early 1950s. History: 1996 – Extinct (Baillie and Groombridge 1996) 1994 – Extinct (Groombridge 1994) 1990 – Extinct (IUCN 1990) 1988 – Extinct (IUCN Conservation Monitoring Centre 1988) 1986 – Extinct (IUCN Conservation Monitoring Centre 1986) 1982 – Extinct (Thornback and Jenkins 1982) Geographic Range [top] Range Description: This species was endemic to western and central Australia. Aboriginal oral histories indicate that is persisted possibly into the 1950s. There is a doubtful record from the early 1960s. Countries: Regionally extinct: Australia Population [top] Population: It is presumed to be extinct. Habitat and Ecology [top] Habitat and Ecology: It was found in stony hills, mulga country, and open woodland (Burbidge 2008). Systems: Terrestrial Threats [top] Major Threat(s): This species was likely extirpated by predation from introduced foxes and cats. Habitat degradation, including changing fire regimes and the impact of rabbits and introduced stock, may have had an impact. In part of their range (south-western Western Australia and parts of New South Wales), pastoral expansion were likely to have been detrimental to the species. Conservation Actions [top] Conservation Actions: None. www.iucnredlist.org/details/15331 |
