My housemate reckons he knows where to find an abundance of Coastal Tai's though...still don't know if I want to take him up on that offer.

Results of the afternoon expidition - 1 unidentified scorpion. Of the 2 species that occur in Brisbane, it doesn't resemble either. Think it was a bit cold for anything to be on the move. Try again next week.

| | Regular Member | Join Date: Apr-03 Location: sydney Age/Gender: 29  | | | | Mulgas might be found very rarely in SW QLD, but they are mostly found west of goondiwindi and a line drawn north of goondiwindi. They are very common in this area and are the most common seen elapid around st george, roma, dirranbandi, moonie etc. From my experience living in this area its pretty much west of the ranges in the flat drier county/ mulga scrub/ red soil plains. Even then they arnt as evenly distributed as say eastern/western browns. more patchy. Even living in NSW most of my life I have only seen them around West Wylong and further west, there is some great mulga/lignum plains around the river systems where that are very common in that area, which also happens to be around the same distace inland as Goondiwndi/ st george, about 350-400km or so.
just what i know! |  | | |
