Notes:

Note 1: Abundance on Red Hill • R = rare < 3 isolated plants, • Rp/c = rare patches <3 isolated clumps with max of 10 plants per clump • = occasional plants (occurring from time to time but not at regular intervals, • Op/c = occasional patches or clumps, generally > 5% cover. I = Intermittent regularly but well spaced Ip/c regular patches F= frequent dominant or subdominate species

Note 2: EPBC List and important plant definition Considered to be a species that is part of the critically endangered Yellow Box – red Gum woodland, some of these species are also considered to be important species within this community. Department of the Environment and Heritage (DEH) (2006) Species list for the EPBC Act policy statement - White box - yellow box - Blakely's red gum grassy woodlands and derived native grasslands - last updated 22 May 2006

Note 3: Classified by Rehwinkel • “c” - Common or increaser species, which do not add much to the value of a site; • “Indicator species, level 1”, which indicate that the site has value; • “Indicator species, level 2”, which are the highly significant species; these are the rarest of the grassy ecosystems species and have the highest significance scores.
