Abstract
The New Holland honeyeater (Phylidonyris novaehollandiae) plays a significant role in the pollination and sustainability of Australia's endemic flora, and hence fauna. Despite this key ecosystem function, knowledge of P. novaehollandiae life-history traits and population dynamics remain poorly understood. We describe the development of primers amplifying 22 P. novaehollandiae microsatellite loci. Fifteen of the loci were found to be polymorphic, with observed heterozygosity between 0.500 and 1.000, and from four to 17 alleles per locus in adult birds from the study site.
