Species List
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. -

SWAFR - Hopper & Gioia (2004) - Native Vascular Plant Taxa Paul Gioia, Science and Conservation Division, Department of Parks and Wildlife Report generated on 22/06/2016 11:30:52 AM This analysis uses the SWAFR boundary generated from a site classification analysis by Hopper & Gioia (2004). Data for this report were derived from a snapshot taken from WAHERB on 18/05/2015 for Gioia & Hopper (2016) paper. Criteria for data extraction and analysis were: 1. All vascular plants 2. Species-rank names where the typical subspecies also existed were renamed to the typical subspecies to avoid counting duplicate taxa 3. Native vascular taxa with current names Note: 1. This report contains information generated from intersecting the supplied polygon layer LOCAL_SWFHG04 with the point species occurrence layer WAHERB_FILT_NATIVE. 2.

Records or the Western Australian Musellm Supplement No. 61: 77-154 (2000). Flora and vegetation of the southern Carnarvon Basin, Western Australia G.J. Keighery, N. Gibson, M.N. Lyons and Allan H. Burbidge Department of Conservation and Land Management, PO Box 51, Wanneroo, Western Australia 6065, Australia Abstract This paper reports the first detailed study of the vascular flora of 2 the southern Carnarvon Basin, an area of c. 75000 km • A total flora of 2133 taxa of vascular plants was listed for the area. There are eight major conservation reserves which have 1559 taxa present in them. Most of the 574 unreserved taxa are wetland taxa, taxa of tropical affinities or those only present on the Acacia shrublands of the central basin. Vegetation patterning at a regional scale showed the major floristic boundary in the south west of the study area, which in turn reflected the major climatic gradients of the area. The other major influence on vegetation patterning was soil type. INTRODUCTION temperate - arid change-over zone (Gibson, Despite Shark Bay being the site of very early Burbidge, Keighery and Lyons, 2000). visitation and study by several European expeditions (Beard, 1990; Keighery, 1990; George, 1999) the area was until recently still poorly known METHODS botanically. Beard (1975, 1976a) prepared structural vegetation maps for the whole area at a 1: 1 000000 Study area scale and Payne et al. (1987) have undertaken land The study area covered by the flora survey system maps (rangeland mapping) for the whole extended from 23°30'S to 28°00'S and from Dirk area at a 1: 250000 scale. -

Biodiversity Summary for NRM Regions Guide to Users Background What is the summary for and where does it come from? This summary has been produced by the Department of Sustainability, Environment, Water, Population and Communities (SEWPC) for the Natural Resource Management Spatial Information System. It highlights important elements of the biodiversity of the region in two ways: • Listing species which may be significant for management because they are found only in the region, mainly in the region, or they have a conservation status such as endangered or vulnerable. • Comparing the region to other parts of Australia in terms of the composition and distribution of its species, to suggest components of its biodiversity which may be nationally significant. The summary was produced using the Australian 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. 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. The list of families covered in ANHAT is shown in Appendix 1. Groups notnot yet yet covered covered in inANHAT ANHAT are are not not included included in the in the summary. • The data used for this summary come from authoritative sources, but they are not perfect. -
