    Biodiversity Summary for NRM Regions Species List What is the summary for and where does it come from? This list has been produced by the Department of Sustainability, Environment, Water, Population and Communities (SEWPC) for the Natural Resource Management Spatial Information System. The list was produced using the AustralianAustralian Natural Natural Heritage Heritage Assessment Assessment Tool Tool (ANHAT), which analyses data from a range of plant and animal surveys and collections from across Australia to automatically generate a report for each NRM region. Data sources (Appendix 2) include national and state herbaria, museums, state governments, CSIRO, Birds Australia and a range of surveys conducted by or for DEWHA. For each family of plant and animal covered by ANHAT (Appendix 1), this document gives the number of species in the country and how many of them are found in the region. It also identifies species listed as Vulnerable, Critically Endangered, Endangered or Conservation Dependent under the EPBC Act. A biodiversity summary for this region is also available. For more information please see: www.environment.gov.au/heritage/anhat/index.html Limitations • ANHAT currently contains information on the distribution of over 30,000 Australian taxa. This includes all mammals, birds, reptiles, frogs and fish, 137 families of vascular plants (over 15,000 species) and a range of invertebrate groups. Groups notnot yet yet covered covered in inANHAT ANHAT are notnot included included in in the the list. list. • The data used come from authoritative sources, but they are not perfect. All species names have been confirmed as valid species names, but it is not possible to confirm all species locations.

ECorresponding author. Email: [email protected] Abstract Context. Global climate change will lead to increased climate variability, including more frequent drought and heatwaves, in many areas of the world. This will affect the distribution and numbers of wildlife populations. In south-west Queensland, anecdotal reports indicated that a low density but significant koala population had been impacted by drought from 2001–2009, in accord with the predicted effects of climate change. Aims. The study aimed to compare koala distribution and numbers in south-west Queensland in 2009 with pre-drought estimates from 1995–1997. Methods. Community surveys and faecal pellet surveys were used to assess koala distribution. Population densities were estimated using the Faecal Standing Crop Method. From these densities, koala abundance in 10 habitat units was interpolated across the study region.

    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by University of Queensland eSpace 214 PASTORAL SETTLEMENT OF FAR SOUTH-WEST QUEENSLAND (1866-1900) [By K. T. CAMERON, Hon. Secretary of the Society] This stretch of country, lying just west of the great mulga belt known as the "Channel Country," extends from the Grey Range to the South Australian and Northern Territory borders, and is traversed by the numerous channels of the Diamantina and Georgina Rivers, and those even more numerous of Cooper's Creek. In spite of its low rainfah this is one of the best fattening and wool growing areas in the State. In 1866 Alexander Munro occupied Nockatunga, and in the sam.e year L. D. Gordon Conbar. The fohow­ ing year saw the arrival of the Costehos and Patrick Durack. The latter became the original lessee of Thy- lungra on Kyabra Creek. The Costehos securing Mobhe on Mobile Creek and Kyabba (now known as Kyabra), John Costeho, pushing further west in 1875 secured Monkira, P. and J. Durack in 1873 having secured Galway Downs. In 1880 some enterprising carriers travelling out with waggons loaded with stores from the rail head of the railway line being built westward from Rock­ hampton, formed a depot at Stoney Point. Soon after a permanent store was erected on the site; thus grew the township of Windorah. The Lindsays and Howes from the South Austra­ lian side in 1876 were responsible for the forming of Arrabury. In the extreme western area in the 1870s James Wentworth Keyes settled Roseberth and Chesterfield on the Diamantina.

The focus is on people in different class and status group situations in the Paroo Shire, a wool growing centre. The data was gathered from: local people attached to the wool industry graziers, shearers, station employees; and people employed by government and private enterprise bureaucracies. Old people, children and women also contribute their subjective experience of drought in a semi-arid region of Australia. iv TABLE OF CONTENTS CHAPTER PAGE 1 DROUGHT RESPONSE IN TWENTIETH 1 CENTURY AUSTRALIA 2 AUSTRALIAN STUDIES AND PERSPECTIVES 12 ON DROUGHT AND DISASTER 3 THEORETICAL PERSPECTIVES AND 49 RESEARCH STRATEGIES 4 HISTORY, POLITY, ECONOMY AND 77 DROUGHT 5 THE EXPERIENCE OF DROUGHT: 107 IMPRESSIONS ON THE AGED, CHILDREN AND WOMEN OF PAROO SHIRE 6

  • DUNCAN Mcintyre and the Search for Leichhardt by J.C.H
    DUNCAN McINTYRE and the Search for Leichhardt by J.C.H. Gill, M.B.E., B.A., LL.B., F.R.Hist.S.Q. (AU rights reserved) After 1859 the new Colony of Queensland became the focus of attention of those seeking new pastoral mns. The Plains of Promise of Stokes, the first Leichhardt expedition, the tragic fate of Burke and WiUs and the explorations of George Elphinstone Dalrymple all combined to attract attention to North Queensland and to the north­ west of the Colony in particular. However, there was the matter of the westem boundary of the Colony which was considered by Govemor Bowen and the first Colonial Parliament to require adjustment. The letters patent of 6 June 1859 defined the boundary as "the 141 st meridian of east longitude, which is the eastem boundary of South AustraHa". A.C. Gregory the Survey-General had advised the ministry that "a boundary at the 141 st meridian would just cut off from Queensland the greater portion of the only territory available for setdement, i.e. the Plains of Promise, and the only safe harbour, i.e. Investigator Road, in the Gulf of Carpentaria". The local legislature asked for an extension of the boundary to the 138th meridian of east longitude. After some importuning by Bowen, and evidently by certain gentlemen in Victoria who were desirous of forming a settlement on the northem coast of Australia (a phenomenon not unknown today), the Imperial Govemment acceded to the request. On 12 April 1862 the Duke of Newcastle, Secretary of State for Colonies advised Bowen that the Letters Patent had been issued aimexing to Queensland that part of "New South Wales as lies to the northward of the 21st parallel of south latitude, and between the 141 st and 13 8th meridians of east longitude, together with all and every the adjacent islands their members and appurtenances in the Gulf of Carpentaria".

  • Impacts and Adaptation Strategies for a Variable and Changing Climate in the SOUTH WEST QUEENSLAND REGION
    Climate Impact and Adaptation Series Storm Clouds, Cunnamulla, Queensland Courtesy of Tourism Queensland Impacts and adaptation strategies for a variable and changing climate in the SOUTH WEST QUEENSLAND REGION This summary describes the likely impacts of a variable and changing climate on the major primary industries of the South West Queensland (SWQ) region, most notably for grazing, and the potential adaptation strategies which can be implemented to minimise climate risks. Major Primary Industries The western part of the SWQ region is desert, historically receiving less than 150 mm annual rainfall and the land use is grazing of beef cattle and sheep. The eastern part of the region is predominantly sheep grazing. Produce goes to the domestic and export markets and transport is a major is- sue, especially in summer when roads may be impassable. The gross value production (GVP) in 2014-15 of agricul- tural commodities in the region was $319 M or 3% of the state total GVP for agricultural commodities ($11.9 B, ABS 2016a). Courtesy of Tourism Queensland Regional Profile The South West Queensland (SWQ) region is one of the most remote areas in the state. The region covers an area of 230,000 km2, encompassing the Bulloo, Warrego and Paroo River catchments and the Nebine-Mungallala Creek catch- ment. The main regional centres include Charleville, Quilpie, Thargomindah and Cunnamulla. The region is part of Australia’s arid inland and often experi- ences extreme temperatures, droughts and floods. Tempera- tures for the region range from an average annual minimum of 14.5°C to an average annual maximum of 28°C, and the average historical annual rainfall (1879-2015) varies from 492 mm at Charleville in the northeast to 286 mm at Thargomin- dah in the southwest.
