                                            sometimes breeds. It sometimes
                                            utilises lowland coastal forest, which
                                            may act as a refuge when its usual
                                            habitat is affected by drought. It also
                                            uses a range of other habitats
                                            including remnant patches in
                                            farmland and urban areas, roadside
                                            reserves and travelling stock routes
                                            (DCCEEW, 2025).

            Calyptorhynchus lathami         This species prefers woodland areas       A small number of large arboreal

                                            beneath Eucalyptus, Corymbia or           trees were observed within the clearing
                                            Angophora (Hourigan, 2012).               area which would provide a food source
                                                                                      for the species.

            Hirundapus caudacutus           In Australia, the White-throated General habitat is present however the

            Act)                            more than 1000m above the ground.
                                            Because they are aerial, it has been
                                            stated that conventional habitat
                                            descriptions are inapplicable. There
                                            are, nevertheless, certain preferences
                                            exhibited by the species. Although
                                            they occur over most types of habitat,
                                            they are probably recorded most
                                            often above wooded areas, including
                                            open forest and rainforest, and may
                                            also fly between trees or in clearings,
                                            below the canopy, but they are less
                                            commonly recorded flying above
                                            woodland. They also commonly occur
                                            over heathland, but less often over
                                            treeless areas, such as grassland or
                                            swamps (DCCEEW, 2025).
