Abstract
Abstract Palynology has proven an effective method in providing supportive and new information on the visitation/foraging habits of the mahogany glider (Petaurus gracilis) in coastal northern Queensland, Australia. Pollen constitutes at least 30% by volume of the maceral contents in six of the eight fecal and intestinal samples examined. Pollen counts indicate that Myrtaceae taxa and Xanthorrhoea are the most frequently visited flowers, but significant occurrences of Banksia pollen suggest that it may also have been foraged. Incidental occurrences of Acacia, GrevilleaJ Hakea, Asteraceae, Casuarina, Deplanchea, and Ilex confirm the presence of these taxa within the glider's habitat.
