Biodiversity in Australia's National Reserve System - Part ... - BushBlitz

One hundred and fifteen species are represented by 10 or fewer individual site records in the
ANHAT database. None of these species are listed as threatened. Given the limited number
of records available for most species, this would appear likely to change if the species were
to be assessed for listing under the EPBC Act. By their nature, this group of invertebrates are
relatively dependent on wetlands and so this comes out as a common factor linking species
in this table. However, a number of species are also associated with rainforest environments
where their wetlands are located. Additionally, there are several species from montane areas
on this list. As expected, there are very few species that are present within more inland and
so arid areas as water supplies are less favourable for this group. The majority of species in
this category are from the northern half of Australia.
