Threatened and Priority Species
Introduction
This chapter contains a list of threatened and priority flora and/or fauna species that have been recorded on, or within 4km of
the Assessment Area.
The information presented in this chapter with respect to species presence is derived from compiled databases developed
primarily for the purpose of BPAs and ACAs. Data is collated from a number of sources and is updated periodically.
It is important to note that the list of species provided in this report, may differ when compared to other reports generated
from other sources such as the State government's WildNet, Herbrecs or the federal government's EPBC database for a
number of reasons.
Records for threatened and priority species are filtered and checked based on a number of rules including:
          • Taxonomic nomenclature - current scientific names and status,
          • Location - cross-check co-ordinates with location description,
          • Taxon by location - requires good knowledge of the taxon and history of the record,
          • Duplicate records - identify and remove,
          • Expert panels - check records and provide new records,
          • Flora cultivated records excluded,
          • Use precise records less than or equal to 2000m,
          • Use recent records greater than or equal to 1975 animals, greater than or equal to 1950 plants.
