A total of nine sites representing four different habitat types were surveyed for fauna species following a standard biological survey methodology developed by the Department for Environment and Heritage (Owens 2000). The dominant habitat types within the project area were: Sclerolaena spp. Herbland on high and low gibber plains (would be a Mitchell Grass (Astrebla pectinata) plain in better years) Eucalyptus camaldulensis Very Open Woodland Eremophila spp. / Acacia spp. / Santalum lanceolatum Tall Shrubland Acacia victoriae Tall Shrubland over chenopods Major findings of the survey were: Mammals - A total of 147 observations of 20 mammal species were made, of which only four are considered to be introduced. Reptiles - A total of 84 observations of 24 reptile species were made, all of which were native species. No amphibian species were observed however little suitable habitat was observed within the project area. Birds - A total of 892 observations of 48 bird species were made, with only one of these an introduced species. No species of conservation significance were observed during the survey. However, one notable capture was a Pseudomys hermannsburgensis (Sandy Inland Mouse). This record (voucher specimen lodged with the South Australian Museum) is a range extension for this species of over 80km. Gunninah Environmental Consultants completed a fauna survey at the Beverley Mine site as part of the Environmental Impact Statement in 1998. A total of six sites were implemented and the survey was undertaken over a six night period. A similar list of fauna species was recorded compared to the current survey. The Gunninah 1998 survey recorded four reptile species, four mammal species and 20 bird species which were not recorded in the current survey. The current survey recorded three reptile species, two mammal species and ten bird species which were not recorded in the Gunninah 1998 survey. None of the additional species recorded by Gunninah in 1998 were of conservation significance. The annual fauna monitoring at the Beverley Mine site, which re-surveys the trapping site put in by Gunninah Environmental Consultants, has recorded an additional two bird species and three reptile species which were not recorded by Gunninah or during the current fauna survey. None of the additional species are considered to be of conservation significance. It is recommended that mining operation in the area be planned and undertaken such that the impact on the biological environment, including habitat for fauna species, is minimised. An appropriate monitoring program should be incorporated in the Mining and Rehabilitation Program. Southern EL 3251Fauna Survey 2 Environmental and Biodiversity Services 1. Introduction This report documents a fauna survey undertaken in the southern half of the Exploration Lease 3251 in an adjacent to the existing Beverley Uranium Mine.

Kowari Survey – Clifton Hills and Pandie Pandie Station December 2007 (Pedler & Read) 47 ii Summary: This paper reports on a presence/absence population status and distribution survey primarily for the Kowari (Dasycercus byrnei) in areas of known or likely habitat in Sturts Stony Desert, north-eastern South Australia. The survey was carried out between 27th August to 11th September 2007 on Mulka, Cowarie, Pandie Pandie, Innamincka and Cordillo Downs pastoral leases. The Kowari’s major habitat areas on Clifton Hills Pastoral Lease were not sampled as access was not approved by the property manager. Monitoring traplines followed typical Kowari survey standards with aluminium box/treadle traps (Elliott Type A) placed 100 metres apart on 10 kilometre long transects sampling ideal habitat over two trap-nights. The only variation from this standard was the pairing of traps at each station, one having bait specifically for Kowaris and other carnivorous species, the other baited for general sampling. Trapping was carried out at 6 locations over 12 nights with an approximate intensity of 400 trap-nights per sample.

  • A Predictive Framework and Review of the Ecological Impacts of Exotic Plant Invasions on Reptiles and Amphibians
    A predictive framework and review of the ecological impacts of exotic plant invasions on reptiles and amphibians Leigh J. Martin* and Brad R. Murray Plant Functional Biology and Climate Change Cluster, Department of Environmental Sciences, University of Technology Sydney, PO Box 123, Broadway, NSW 2007, Australia *Author for correspondence (Tel: + 61 2 9514 8346; Fax: + 61 2 9514 4079; E-mail: [email protected]). 2 ABSTRACT The invasive spread of exotic plants in native vegetation can pose serious threats to native faunal assemblages. This is of particular concern for reptiles and amphibians because they form a significant component of the world’s vertebrate fauna, play a pivotal role in ecosystem functioning and are often neglected in biodiversity research. A framework to predict how exotic plant invasion will affect reptile and amphibian assemblages is imperative for conservation, management and the identification of research priorities. Here, we present a new predictive framework that integrates three mechanistic models. These models are based on exotic plant invasion altering: (1) habitat structure; (2) herbivory and predator-prey interactions; (3) the reproductive success of reptile and amphibian species and assemblages. We present a series of testable predictions from these models that arise from the interplay over time among three exotic plant traits (growth form, area of coverage, taxonomic distinctiveness) and six traits of reptiles and amphibians (body size, lifespan, home range size, habitat specialisation, diet, reproductive strategy). A literature review provided robust empirical evidence of exotic plant impacts on reptiles and amphibians from each of the three model mechanisms. Evidence relating to the role of body size and diet was less clear-cut, indicating the need for further research.

Memoirs of the Queensland Museum 45(1):1-164. Brisbane. ISSN 0079-8835. Published reports of protozoan species from Australian animals have been compiled into a host- parasite checklist, a parasite-host checklist and a cross-referenced bibliography. Protozoa listed include parasites, commensals and symbionts but free-living species have been excluded. Over 590 protozoan species are listed including amoebae, flagellates, ciliates and ‘sporozoa’ (the latter comprising apicomplexans, microsporans, myxozoans, haplosporidians and paramyxeans). Organisms are recorded in association with some 520 hosts including mammals, marsupials, birds, reptiles, amphibians, fish and invertebrates. Information has been abstracted from over 1,270 scientific publications predating 1999 and all records include taxonomic authorities, synonyms, common names, sites of infection within hosts and geographic locations.

  • South West Queensland QLD Page 1 of 89 21-Jan-11 Species List for NRM Region South West Queensland, Queensland
    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.
