I sent this yesterday, but as it didn't come through it may have been too
big. So I am chopping it into several parts.

>Here is my attempt at a list of endemics found in Australia and its Island
territories.  Note that in my definition of endemic, the occurrence of a
species elsehere on an introduced basis (eg Black Swan) or as a vagrant
elsewhere does not affect the endemic status of the species. @ marks an
endemic species in my list.
>I have also left out extinct endemics, such as Paradise Parrot.
