Fauna Management Plan - 30 Pottery St, Pomona (2)

The open Eucalypt forest vegetation contained within the site has the potential to provide the following
general habitat elements for fauna species:
    Several large habitat trees bearing arboreal hollows occur in the clearing footprint (refer Plate 3)
    Open canopy and mid-canopy nesting sites and perches which may be used by birds and arboreal
       mammals
    Sun exposed areas below canopy gaps and on forest fringes may be suitable habitat for exothermic
       reptiles such as snakes, skinks, small lizards and larger reptiles such as lace monitors
    Grass and sedge groundcovers (native and exotic) have the potential to provide shelter and
       movement pathways for small terrestrial mammals and non-mammals (e.g. bush rats, melomys,
       antechinus, bandicoots) and foraging opportunities for larger marsupials such as kangaroos and
       wallabies
    Foraging opportunities for nectivorous and herbaceous fauna species including birds, gliders,
       possums and koalas
    Areas of light to heavy leaf litter have the potential to host small reptiles and amphibious species.
