A Catalogue of Australian UFO Entity and Humanoid Related Reports
Compiled by Keith Basterfield
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.)

A farmerâs wife observed an unusual object approaching the house and hovering close by it. She saw a "man" standing at a "wooden railing" inside the object. It eventually departed into the sky. (Keith Basterfield, John Burford, Peter Horne, Garry Little, Paul Johnson and Tony Rundle.)
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. These enlargements were said to show an object with an illuminated window.

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.

A thirty two year old woman was a passenger in a semi-trailer travelling across to Perth. She had been asleep for about an hour when a "voice" called her name and told her to look out the window. She did so and saw an egg-shaped craft surrounded by a "force field" on the ground. The figure of a man was walking towards the egg, while another man was sitting inside the object. The first man entered the egg, the glow died down, leaving only one white light on. The driver pulled up the truck but when asked, said he had seen nothing. They did not go back to check the spot.

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. AFSR(Vic), No 8. pp44-45.)

It had long, wrap around eyes that sloped at the outside, and flat, pointed ears. Also present were two smaller rounded figures to either side. They were less than a metre tall, fat in the body with small arms and legs. They moved in a jerky fashion. The witness retreated into the house, despite a feeling she should follow the figure.
