    I INTRODUCTION TO YORKRAKINE ROCK, EAST YORKRAKINE AND NORTH BUNGULLA NATURE RESERVES A. CHAPMAN The biological survey of these reserves is part of a programme evaluating the relationships between vertebrate fauna and vegetation on reserves in the Western Australian wheatbelt. Studies published are listed in Dell (1979). In addition surveys of Marchagee Nature Reserve (Dell et al. 1979) and Buntine and Nugadong Nature Reserves (Kitchener et al. 1979) have now been published. Description of Reserves Yorkrakine Rock Nature Reserve (YRR) and East Yorkrakine Nature Reserve (YER) are in the Shire of Tammin while North Bungulla Nature Reserve (NBR) is in the Shire of Kellerberrin in the Western Australian wheatbelt. Tammin (31°39'S, 117°28'E), the nearest town, is ca 170 km east of Perth. These reserves and the wheatbelt generally are situated on the granites and granitic gneisses of the Yilgarn Block of the Precambrian Shield. There is a slight increase in altitude for the general land surface from west to east over the area covered by these reserves, from 300 m at Yorkrakine Rock Nature Reserve to 330 m at North Bungulla.
