N2  - Aphodius tasmaniae Hope is an indigenous univoltine pest of improved pastures in South Australia. The species was rare, however, before European settlement and is still rare in areas which have not yet been developed agriculturally. Evidence is presented which suggests that A. tasmaniae is now a common species because man has supplied it with food and shelter on a vast scale.
