  • Approved Conservation Advice for Budawangia Gnidioides (Budawangs Cliff-Heath)
    This conservation advice was approved by the Minister / Delegate of the Minister on 3 July 2008 Approved conservation advice (s266B of the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999) Approved Conservation Advice for Budawangia gnidioides (Budawangs Cliff-heath) This Conservation Advice has been developed based on the best available information at the time this conservation advice was approved. Description Budawangia gnidioides, Family Epacridaceae / Ericacaeae, also known as Budawangs Cliff- heath, is a small rhizomatous creeping shrub with stiff sharp-pointed leaves. The hairy stems grow to about 50 cm long, usually spreading through cracks in rock-faces or along sandy ledges below cliffs. The plant flowers from September to February, with shortly tubular white flowers 4–5 mm long produced among the leaves towards the ends of the stems (Powell, 1992; Telford, 1992). Conservation Status Budawangs Cliff-heath is listed as vulnerable. This species is eligible for listing as vulnerable under the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999 (Cwlth) (EPBC Act) as, prior to the commencement of the EPBC Act, it was listed as vulnerable under Schedule 1 of the Endangered Species Protection Act 1992 (Cwlth), as ‘Budawongia gnidioides’. The species is also listed as vulnerable on Schedule 2 of the Threatened Species Conservation Act 1995 (NSW). Distribution and Habitat Budawangs Cliff-heath occurs only in the northern Budawangs Range and associated sandstone plateau escarpments in south-eastern NSW, west of Ulladulla, over a range of less than 100 km (Briggs & Leigh, 1996). The range of Budawangs Cliff-heath occurs mostly within Morton National Park (Powell, 1992; Telford, 1992).

    Sydney Bournda National Park South Coast An amazing strip of national parks follows the southern coastline, inviting you to discover and uncover. Along the coast, spotted gums, hundreds of years old, stretch to the sky, providing food and habitat to endangered native species. For some, the appeal is the colourful bird life and cheeky native animals. For others, it’s the grandeur of the endless blue ocean – sometimes calm, sometimes boisterous – as the waves crash noisily over the golden sand. Whales, dolphins, penguins and seals fi nd sanctuary here, while up in the sky you may spot a sea eagle gliding on the breeze. It warms the heart to know that this is how the South Coast will always be. Green Cape Lightstation at Ben Boyd National Park Photography: LEFT: A. Hutchings / DECCW, RIGHT: A.
