This list has been produced by the Department of Sustainability, Environment, Water, Population and Communities (SEWPC) for the Natural Resource Management Spatial Information System. The list was produced using the AustralianAustralian Natural Natural Heritage Heritage Assessment Assessment Tool Tool (ANHAT), which analyses data from a range of plant and animal surveys and collections from across Australia to automatically generate a report for each NRM region. Data sources (Appendix 2) include national and state herbaria, museums, state governments, CSIRO, Birds Australia and a range of surveys conducted by or for DEWHA. For each family of plant and animal covered by ANHAT (Appendix 1), this document gives the number of species in the country and how many of them are found in the region. It also identifies species listed as Vulnerable, Critically Endangered, Endangered or Conservation Dependent under the EPBC Act. A biodiversity summary for this region is also available.

The mechanisms of deception in orchids include generalized food deception, food-deceptive floral mimicry, brood-site imitation, shelter imitation, pseudoantagonism, rendezvous attraction and sexual deception. Generalized food deception is the most common mechanism (reported in 38 genera) followed by sexual deception (18 genera). Floral deception in orchids has been intensively studied since Darwin, but the evolution of non-rewarding flowers still presents a major puzzle for evolutionary biology. The two principal hypotheses as to how deception could increase fitness in plants are (i) reallocation of resources associated with reward production to flowering and seed production, and (ii) higher levels of cross-pollination due to

  • Western Pipeline Desktop Assessment
    FI Joint-Venture Pty Ltd Yogi - Magnetite Project Yogi Western Pipeline Desktop Assessment April 2020 Executive summary FI Joint Venture (FIJV) proposes to construct and operate a magnetite iron ore project located approximately 250 kilometres (km) east-northeast of Geraldton and 15 km northeast of Yalgoo in the Mid-West, Western Australia (WA). The Yogi Magnetite Mine project (the Proposal) will also require the construction of a magnetite slurry pipeline, a water pipeline from the mine site to Geraldton Port, a return water pipeline, and a gas supply pipeline from the Dampier to Bunbury Natural Gas (DBNG) Pipeline network. GHD Pty Ltd (GHD) was commissioned by FIJV to undertake a desktop assessment of the western portion of the pipeline development envelope. This desktop assessment will be used to inform the environmental assessment and approvals process. The Pipeline Development Envelope (PDE) encompasses the western portion of the total proposed pipeline area and broadly follows the Mt Magnet Road extending from the Geraldton port eastwards to Pindar. The study area was defined for the desktop assessment based searches and includes a 40 km buffer of the PDE. Database searches identified two federally listed TECs potentially occurring within the study area: Subtropical and Temperate Coastal Saltmarsh, and Eucalypt Woodlands of the Western Australian Wheatbelt (DAWE 2020). The DBCA TEC and PEC database search identified an additional two PECs and/or their buffers occurring within the study area: Plant assemblages of the Moresby Range system and Coastal sands dominated by Acacia rosterllifera, Eucalyptus oraria and Eucalyptus obtusiflora (Geraldton area). No TECs/PECs intersect the PDE.
