Its natural integrity, with large areas unaffected by logging, contains a range of endangered and of concern communities, including significant examples of notophyll vine forests along upper catchment creek lines, and habitat for rare and threatened plants and birds. Maintenance of the aquatic ecosystems to protect threatened or endemic species including the giant barred frog, cascade tree frog, tusked frog, the giant spiny crayfish and the rainforest crayfish will be a priority. The park will provide a high quality water catchment and scenic backdrop to the rapidly developing Sunshine Coast hinterland, Caboolture and Kilcoy. Visitors can enjoy an accessible, regenerating natural area for nature-based recreation opportunities, including sustainable motorised recreation. Conservation purpose Bellthorpe National Park was gazetted in 2010. It was originally Bellthorpe State Forest prior to its transfer to Bellthorpe Forest Reserve 1 and 2 under the South East Queensland Forests Agreement (SEQFA) in 2003.

A: Because he was a little shellfish! Synopsis The overall aim of this project was to consider several freshwater invertebrates that are restricted both geographically and climatically to determine their population genetic structure, population distribution and population viability. The study was set in a framework of genetic analysis as genetics can be used to answer a whole suite of conservation focused questions. Specifically, the study concentrated on the population dynamics of three freshwater crayfish from the genus Euastacus: E. hystricosus, E. urospinosus and E. robertsi. Also, in this study I explored the role of two commensal flatworms as proxy species, to aid in disentangling the population structure of their crayfish hosts. These flatworms were Temnosewellia batiola, which is specific to E. hystricosus and Temnosewellia albata, which is specific to E.

  • Sunshine Coast Council Development Indicators Snapshot 2015/16
    Sunshine Coast Council Development Indicators Snapshot 2015/16 Highlights Master Builders Queensland released the results of the “Survey of Industry Conditions” in March 2016. The report rates the Sunshine Coast as one of only two areas in Queensland that are maintaining a strong building performance and achieving better than the state average’s for planning approvals, Infrastructure charges and development availability. The Sunshine Coast region was ranked the fifth most desirable location in Australia for people to move to by Real Estate Magazine. This followed a four year study that analysed the net gains and losses for regions based on mail re-direction data from Australia Post (source: www.realestate.com.au). With these findings there is no surprise that the Development Indicators 2015/16 Highlights Report shows activity in the local development industry continued to trend positively over the past 12 months. Building approvals recorded an eight year high with $1.29 billion worth of construction approved during the period. This included: $701 million approved new dwellings – a 15% increase from 2014/15 $203 million approved new multiple unit dwellings – a 19% increase from 2014/15 $156 million approved additions and alterations – a 141% increase from 2014/15 The Queensland Treasury have released the 2016 state’s building approvals which has reported the Sunshine Coast Council Local Government Area recorded the third highest value of building approvals and fourth highest number of private dwellings in the state. The outlook for the local industry remains encouraging with 2,968 lots created through the plan sealing process, and 1,317 lots being approved by Reconfiguring a Lot applications during 2015/16.
