  • Flora and Fauna Guarantee Act 1988 Protected Flora List November 2019
    Department of Environment, Land, Water & Planning Flora and Fauna Guarantee Act 1988 Protected Flora List November 2019 What is Protected Flora? Protected flora are native plants or communities of native plants that have legal protection under the Flora and Fauna Guarantee Act 1988. The Protected Flora List includes plants from three sources: plant taxa (species, subspecies or varieties) listed as threatened under the Flora and Fauna Guarantee Act 1988 plant taxa belonging to communities listed as threatened under the Flora and Fauna Guarantee Act 1988 plant taxa which are not threatened but require protection for other reasons. For example, some species which are attractive or highly sought after, such as orchids and grass trees, are protected so that the removal of these species from the wild can be controlled. For all listed species protection includes living (eg flowers, seeds, shoots and roots) and non-living (eg bark, leaves and other litter) plant material. Do I need a permit or licence? The handling of protected flora is regulated by the Department of Environment, Land, Water & Planning (DELWP) to ensure that any harvesting or loss is ecologically sustainable. You must obtain a ‘Protected Flora Licence’ or Permit from one of the Regional Offices of DELWP if you want to collect protected native plants or if you are planning to do works or other activities on public land which might kill, injure or disturb protected native plants. In most cases, you do not require a Licence or Permit for works or activities on private land, although you may require a planning permit from your local council.

  • Australian Native Plants for Use in Finch Aviaries
    The Avicultural Society of New South Wales (ASNSW) (Founding in 1940 as the Parrot & African Lovebird Society of Australia) PO Box 248, Panania NSW 2213, Australia Australian Native Plants for use in Finch Aviaries (The Avicultural Review August 1986 Vol. 8 No. 8) The reason for restricting this article to native plants is simply that Australian finches show a marked preference for them, as evidenced by large numbers of red-browed and double-barred finches resident in the Canberra Botanic Gardens. These species rarely turn up in the suburbs where most of the plantings tend to be of exotics. As a planted aviary is, of necessity, outside and Australian birds make up a great majority of the finches that can be kept outside in Canberra, it would seem pointless to consider the exotic species of plants. The plants suggested have been selected primarily for the protection afforded the birds due to the dense foliage. Finches are by nature wary of wide open spaces and will appreciate being provided with the conditions that they have evolved to survive and breed in. Some of the plants are included because of their ability, when flowering, to produce an abundance of nectar which will entice insects in the cage - saving you much trouble when breeding time comes around. Although finches are seed eaters, at this time of the year, insects are a vital ingredient in the parent birds' diet in raising the young. It is suggested that species of plants are selected such that flowering coincides with the breeding season of your birds. Finally the list has been limited to plants reaching a height no greater than two metres and those species which have proved hardy in Canberra conditions.
