Australian Glow-worms - Managing an Important Biological Resource

Australian glow-worms are a unique resource for tourism in Australia and New Zealand, yet in Australia little information is available on the species present and their relative distributions. An understanding of Australia’s biologically distinct species will indicate the need for specific populations to have strategic management plans put in place for their future protection. To get to this sta...

Distribution and phylogenetic relationships of Australian glow-worms Arachnocampa (Diptera, Keroplatidae).

Glow-worms are bioluminescent fly larvae (Order Diptera, genus Arachnocampa) found only in Australia and New Zealand. Their core habitat is rainforest gullies and wet caves. Eight species are present in Australia; five of them have been recently described. The geographic distribution of species in Australia encompasses the montane regions of the eastern Australian coastline from the Wet Tropics...

During the last two years of a practice attending over 20 years I have come across a series of cases suffering from a peculiar kind of worm which fly within a few seconds of their expu...

Glow Clustering

We introduce Glow Clustering, a clustering technique inspired by the physics of light and the images of spiral galaxies. We discuss the genesis, design, and implementation of Glow Clustering. We evaluate Glow Clustering on test datasets and a well-known standard dataset. Finally, we attempt to describe the characteristics of Glow Clustering, giving some insight into the context of use where Glo...
