  • ISPL Insight – Australian Threatened Plants
    Integrate Sustainability 30 July 2019 Environment Monitoring and Recovery of Western Australia’s Threatened Plants Shayde Holbrey – Environmental Specialist Current Status and Threats Western Australia is characterised by three distinct Botanical Provinces (Northern, Eremaean and South‐West) each divided into a number of Botanical Districts (Beard, 2000). The Southwest Australian Floristic Region (SWAFR) is a biodiversity hotspot with over 7300 native vascular plant species; almost half of which can only be found in this area (Hopper, 2004). While regions characterized by Mediterranean climates generally have high levels of endemism, the southwest province experiences comparably higher values due to the geographic isolation, tectonically stable landscape and deeply weathered profile (Beard, 2000). High habitat specialisation has resulted in a unique flora assemblage; however, due to their restricted distribution, many of the plants found in the SWAFR are at risk of becoming extinct (Coates, 2001). Disturbances such as fire, drought and flooding are natural across Australia, although changes in timing, frequency and intensity can Plants Under Threat impact on the survival and recruitment of plants. Altered grazing patterns, clearing, direct human disturbance and the introduction of weeds, feral animals and diseases can have significant consequences on native plant populations (Department of the Environment and Heritage, 2004). The direct impacts of changing temperature and rainfall patterns on plant growth and distribution can already be observed and should be considered during vulnerability assessments and adaption plans (Toni, 2018). Figure 1: Cochrane, J.A., Patrick, S & Stack, G. Acacia aprica. FloraBase The Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999 (Cth) requires the Federal Government to maintain a list of threatened flora species considered to be nationally and/or internationally important.
