Introduction

This document integrates several previous works, and has been updated with cases reported as at 1st October 1997. The previous works are, firstly, "An Australian Catalogue of Close Encounter Type Three Reports" compiled by myself and Bill Chalker, and published by UFO Research Inc. in September 1976. Secondly, a series of 11 supplements to this 1976 catalogue, prepared by myself. Thirdly, a June 1980 document titled: "An Indepth Review of Australasian UFO Related Entity Reports" prepared by myself. Fourthly, events reported in my monthly Australian UFO Reports and Experiences listings, circulated to all Australian UFO groups.

It  utilises  the  classification  system  outlined  in  1976  by  US researcher, David Webb, in "1973-Year of the Humanoids." Webb currently maintains a computer listing of humanoid cases called HUMCAT.

Webb classified entity/humanoid sightings as follows:-

Type A - Humanoid is observed only inside the UFO (the true "occupant" report.) 
Type B - Humanoid is observed entering or leaving the UFO. 
Type C - Humanoid is observed in the immediate area of a UFO. 
Type D - Humanoid is observed during a period of general UFO activity. 
Type E - No association can be established between entity and UFOs. 
Type F - No humanoid/UFO physically involved-but information transferred by telepathy or a psychic experience. 
Type G - Abduction. (A separate catalogue of Australian abduction cases has been prepared and so these are not listed here.)

THE  CASES

TYPE A
001  Ca. 1954  BANKSTOWN  NSW Early eve 
Two people were working late at the airport, just after dark, when they observed what appeared to be a flying saucer hovering over the control tower. There were "portholes" around it and shapes inside that seemed to be moving around. There was a humming sound. It appeared to change colours then shot up into the air at great speed. (UFO Research New South Wales via Mark Moravec who received written correspondence giving fourth-hand information.)

002  30 May 1954  EAST MALVERN  Vic 0024hrs  5secs   Reese, Muir + 4 
A group of five men and a woman were on the doorstep of a house when an oval shaped object appeared in the sky at what seemed to be close range.  It travelled in a downward curve initially, then pulled out of the curve going upwards. Finally it disappeared like a light being switched off. A cloud of yellow smoke was noted from its rear. Five of the people said they thought they had seen shadows inside the object, through "portholes." (1. Melbourne "Argus" May 31 1954. 2. Melbourne "Sun." May 31 1954.)

003  28 Oct 1962  SALISBURY  SA  1930hrs  Sylvester 
A school teacher and her children reported an orange glow on the ground at an estimated distance of three to four kilometres away from them. Despite this distance her son insisted he could see an oval shape with windows, legs and two "men". The teacher could only see a glow. (1. Australian Flying Saucer Research Society. (AFSRS). 2. Australian Saucer Record. (ASR). 6/1/13-14.)

005  1966 WILLAGEE WA Dusk 
Mrs Audrey Wâs children, aged 5 and 7, were playing on the front verge with their neighbourâs children, more or less the same age. It was dusk but not dark. Suddenly their chickens created a great commotion, and their dog flew into a frenzy, its hair on end. The children came running in very excited and declared they had seen "priests" looking out of portholes at them, from a funny round thing, with a round thing on top. The children went on to describe the occupants of the craft wearing dark "shirts" with round, white collars. Apparently this saucer shaped object dipped downwards towards the children before speeding off north towards Perth. (Brian Richards/UFORUM. UFORA93029.)

006  May 1967(?)  ALBERTON SA Eve Mathews 
A movie film was shot of a light in the sky. Upon developing and playing it some frames were  sent to the US for enlargement.

One of them said they saw a two metre tall "man" in a white space-suit floating in the middle of the rectangular shape. The other saw an orange rectangle with a white blob on top of it. Later, a semi-trailer driver reported to police that as he passed a clearing he noted what looked like an open doorway and a figure. The police checked the clearing by going there within an hour, but found nothing to account for the observations. (1. Keith Basterfield, Peter Horne, Dean Piovesan, Ray

Awoken by the frenzied barking of their dog, a migrant family heard a noise like a big swarm of wasps. Going outside their caravan they saw a twenty five to thirty metre "sombrero hat" shape giving off a violet glow. Three "men" descended in a tiny craft similar in shape to the large one. These men seemed to be three times the size of a normal human being. They gave off a violet-yellowish glow, as they collected plants and sugar cane which were sucked up into the large craft via a transparent tube. After ten minutes the men re-entered their ship which took off. As it did so the hair on the familyâs heads and arms stood up. (1. "North Qld Register" Jan 18 1969.  2.

Ron Hyde was motorcycling between Melbourne and Sydney when he was suddenly engulfed in a blue/white flash. He stopped his bike, and when his eyes cleared he saw about thirty metres away in a clearing, a metallic object hovering a metre off the ground. It resembled two saucers, one inverted on top of the other, separated by a three metre band of metal. On top of the object was a small dome two metres tall. Yet again on top of this was a flat topped ball, about twenty five centimetres deep. Mr Hyde turned away for a second and upon looking back two silver clad figures, 152 centimetres tall, were present. Helmets resembling opaque fish-balls hid their faces. The witness took a step in their direction and the figures did the same. Then one figure beckoned him. He panicked, jumped on his bike and raced off, only to be followed by the object, before it finally shot off into the air. (1. Victorian UFO Research Society. (VUFORS.)  2.

061  10 Feb 1996  HUON VALLEY Tas 
Witness woke in early hours to find room lit up by light. She had a feeling she must go outside. From there she saw that the source of light was a brilliant, long, elliptical shape 50m away in a paddock. Standing in the garden was a tall, thin figure estimated to be over 2m tall. The figure beckoned the witness with its left hand. The witness approached and then, becoming afraid retreated. She threw some furniture from the verandah, at which point everything went dark as her companion came out to see what was going on. (TUFOIC.)
