    Flora and fauna assessment for the Calingiri study area Prepared for Muchea to Wubin Integrated Project Team (Main Roads WA, Jacobs and Arup) 5.3 FIELD SURVEY 5.3.1 Flora and vegetation A total of 296 plant taxa (including subspecies and varieties) representing 154 genera and 55 families were recorded in the study area. This total is comprised of 244 (82.4%) native species and 52 (17.6%) introduced (weed) species, and included 60 annual, 223 perennial species, one species that is known to be either annual or perennial and 12 unknown life cycles (Appendix 8). The current survey recorded a similar number of species to previous flora surveys conducted along GNH and higher average diversity (average number of taxa per km) (Table 5-7).

    Department of Parks and Wildlife Science and Conservation Division annual research report 2013–14 DIRECTOR'S MESSAGE There has been much change since we became the Department of Parks and Wildlife in July 2013, with renewed focus on conservation of Western Australia's unique plants and animals and our world- class network of parks, reserves and natural areas. Our Strategic Directions for 2013-14 recognised that science and research play a critical role in effective management of species and ecosystems. In October 2013 the Science Division was amalgamated with the Nature Conservation Division providing new opportunities for science to more directly inform conservation policy and management, and for management requirements and knowledge gaps to set research priorities. While much of our work supports the conservation priorities of the Wildlife corporate goal, we also provide scientific research and information to support delivery of the Parks, Fire, Managed Use and People corporate goals. The combined responsibilities of the divisions are focused around two main areas of Species conservation and Landscape conservation. Our work in species conservation involves activities, such as species and community recovery, wildlife protection and licensing, understanding species biology and taxonomy, while our landscape conservation work is focused on landscape and seascape management, development advice and liaison, understanding ecosystem processes and biological survey. Information systems and monitoring and evaluation link across both species and landscape conservation activities. Across all areas, effective exchange of knowledge and information to support legislation and policy is fundamental to effective delivery of wildlife management outcomes. Partnerships have always been an important means of achieving our outcomes.

  • Annual Program Updates 2019
    Biodiversity and Conservation Science Annual Program Updates 2019 December 2019 Animal Science Program Key achievements for 2019 Species restorations, relocations and monitoring Undertook translocations of Shark Bay bandicoots and dibblers to Dirk Hartog Island. Monitoring suggests these species, and other small extant vertebrates on the island, are persisting well. A survey of water rats on Barrow Island has commenced preceding a planned translocation to the Montebello Islands. Ongoing monitoring of selected mammals and birds translocated from Barrow Island to the Montebello Islands indicates successful establishment, with populations broadly distributed across each island. Boodies, mala and golden bandicoots translocated from Barrow Island to a fenced enclosure at Matuwa (formerly Lorna Glen) continue to do well, although extremely dry conditions were coincident with a drop in boodie numbers. Bilbies, brushtail possums and golden bandicoots released outside the enclosure have persisted supported by ongoing introduced predator control. Survivorship of eastern grey kangaroos relocated from an urban area to state forest near Jarrahdale commenced in May 2019. Post-relocation monitoring over the subsequent 12-months is underway. Cat eradication Refinement of feral cat control techniques regarding bait palatability, deployment, minimising non-target impacts and trapping continues. Research in southern jarrah forest has revealed low bait uptake by cats. Broadscale feral cat baiting in the Pilbara has resulted in quolls persisting in the presence of aerial baiting using Eradicat®, with their range expanding compared to a non-baited area. Research into the non-target impacts of Eradicat® suggest minimal impacts in the Dryandra Woodland, with red-tailed phascogales persisting after its application. This has implications for integrated fox and feral cat control programs at Dryandra and elsewhere in the south-west of Western Australia.
