Index to NSW TSSC Final Determinations NSW Threatened Species Scientific Committee Index to Final Determinations – 1996 –2018 (Updated to 27/4/2018) Listing of threatened species, populations and ecological communities in NSW from 1996 to 25th August 2017 was undertaken by the NSW Scientific Committee established under the Threatened Species Conservation Act, 1995. The extinction risk of species, populations and ecological communities were assessed at the State scale under this Act. However, it should be noted that assessments of species endemic to NSW (ie species that only occur in NSW) is equivalent to a national scale assessment. The NSW Threatened Species Scientific Committee (NSWTSSC) is established under the Biodiversity Conservation Act, 2016 which commenced on 25th August 2017. Under ths Act, species and ecological communities are assessed at the national scale. If a species or ecological community is not threatened at the national scale then it can be assessed at the State scale and can be listed as threatened if it meets the criteria for listing in NSW. The NSWTSSC identifies and assesses species and ecological communities for listing as threatened in the Schedules of the Act as follows: Schedule 1 – Critically endangered (CR), Endangered (E) and Vulnerable (V) species Schedule 2 – Critically endangered (CREEC), Endangered (EEC) and Vulnerable (VEC) ecological communities Schedule 3 – Extinct species (EX), species extinct in the wild and collapsed ecological communities Schedule 4 – Key threatening processes (KTP) Final determinations include the reasons for listing and are available for those entities listed or reviewed by the Committee since the Threatened Species Conservation Act, 1995 commenced in 1996. Final determinations made prior to 25th August 2017 refer to the listing criteria and provisons of the Threatended Species Conservation Act and Regulations. Final Determinations made since 25th August 2017 refer to the listing criteria and provisions of the Biodversity Conservation Act and Regulations. Species that were listed in the Schedules at the commencement of the Threatened Species Conservation Act and have not been subsequently reviewed do not have a Final determination. Provisional listings (PL) on an emergency basis are also included in this list until they are superseded by a Final determination.

Minor Amendment Determinations may relate to one or two species, eg Giant Dragonfly (taxonomic split), and these Determinations have been included in the Index. Other section Minor Amendment Determinations which make changes to a large number of species are not included in the Index. These Determinations may be viewed on the website at: http://www.environment.nsw.gov.au/committee/schedulesthreatenedspeciesconservationa ct.htm Some Determinations have been identified in the index for transfer to an Archive Determination page which is yet to be created. Some early Determinations have already been removed from the website while later Determinations may still be available. After checking the website, please contact the NSWTSSC on 02 9585 6940 or email [email protected] if you wish to access a Determination that is not on the website. A year marked with an asterisk (*) in the index shows the year the species was added to the Schedules following a provisional listing on an emergency basis. The later year is when the listing was confirmed with a Final Determination. +Year - Please note that the “Year” column shows the year a Final Determination was made for the listing of the species etc. at the status shown. It should not be assumed that this is the year the species was added to the Schedules. A number of species that were already listed have been either upgraded or downgraded within the Schedules. Please read the Final Determination to check if it is a newly listed species or a change in status of an already listed species.

The pandemic has made essential self distancing and quarantining to arrest the spread of the Corona virus. As a result, most APS activities have been shelved for the time being. Being in isolation at home has been a mixed blessing.

  • Report on Visit to Lyrebird Lane Quite a Crowd Travelled to Lyrebird Lane Little Forest, to Enjoy the Extensive Garden of Catriona and Phil
    Report on visit to Lyrebird Lane Quite a crowd travelled to Lyrebird Lane Little Forest, to enjoy the extensive garden of Catriona and Phil. As leaders of the Petrophile and Isopogon Study Group, they share a keen interest in domesticating these members of the Proteaceae family. Phil has spent some years perfecting a process of grafting the difficult to grow but horticulturally desirable Western Australian species onto more reliable Eastern states rootstock. From this work he has ventured to graft many difficult to grow plants within the Proteaceae family, including Banksia, Dryandra, Grevillea and Hakea species onto stocks which not only survive, but thrive in his Phil and Catriona ponder a garden conditions. (Phil has kindly supplied an extensive list difficult question during their of the successful grafts in his garden, which follows this opening comments at the last report) meeting Catriona and Phil’s property is located on the edge of the escarpment overlooking Lake Conjola and Milton at an elevation of 350m, just below the Little Forest Plateau area of the Morton National Park, about ten kilometres from the sea, and is a garden set on the rich soils of former rainforest pockets, comprising two hectares of volcanic soil known as Milton monzonite. Whilst we marvelled at the plants and the almost perfect maintenance, both Catriona and Phil were quick to point out aspects which they struggled with. First of course, as the soil retains so much moisture, many plants simply grow too quickly, then being top heavy, are affected negatively by the strong westerly winds which flow down from the nearby escarpment.

Bell Art Australia started this trend with a donation in 2018, which they have continued in 2019. Source Separation is now the second Industry Partner sponsoring the Foundation, with a generous donation of $5,000. Other generous donors have been the Australian Plants Society (APS): APS Newcastle ($3,000), APS NSW ($3,000), APS Sutherland ($500) and SGAP Mackay ($467). And, of course, there are the amounts from our private donors. In August, the Council was saddened to hear of the death of Dr Malcolm Reed, President of the Foundation from 1991 to 1998. The Foundation owes a debt of gratitude to Malcolm; the current healthy financial position of the Foundation has its roots in a series of large donations and bequests that came to the Foundation during his tenure.

  • Rare Or Threatened Vascular Plant Species of Wollemi National Park, Central Eastern New South Wales
    Rare or threatened vascular plant species of Wollemi National Park, central eastern New South Wales. Stephen A.J. Bell Eastcoast Flora Survey PO Box 216 Kotara Fair, NSW 2289, AUSTRALIA Abstract: Wollemi National Park (c. 32o 20’– 33o 30’S, 150o– 151oE), approximately 100 km north-west of Sydney, conserves over 500 000 ha of the Triassic sandstone environments of the Central Coast and Tablelands of New South Wales, and occupies approximately 25% of the Sydney Basin biogeographical region. 94 taxa of conservation signiicance have been recorded and Wollemi is recognised as an important reservoir of rare and uncommon plant taxa, conserving more than 20% of all listed threatened species for the Central Coast, Central Tablelands and Central Western Slopes botanical divisions. For a land area occupying only 0.05% of these divisions, Wollemi is of paramount importance in regional conservation. Surveys within Wollemi National Park over the last decade have recorded several new populations of signiicant vascular plant species, including some sizeable range extensions. This paper summarises the current status of all rare or threatened taxa, describes habitat and associated species for many of these and proposes IUCN (2001) codes for all, as well as suggesting revisions to current conservation risk codes for some species. For Wollemi National Park 37 species are currently listed as Endangered (15 species) or Vulnerable (22 species) under the New South Wales Threatened Species Conservation Act 1995. An additional 50 species are currently listed as nationally rare under the Briggs and Leigh (1996) classiication, or have been suggested as such by various workers. Seven species are awaiting further taxonomic investigation, including Eucalyptus sp.
