Abstract

Little is known about the basic biology of brush-tailed phascogales, Phascogale tapoatafa, in southern Queensland. Wild-caught phascogales, and museum and veterinary records were examined. Queensland phascogales are smaller than Victorian phascogales, but larger than Western Australian animals of the same subspecies.
