Removal of the poorly recorded species leaves 52914 records <strong>in</strong> ANHAT for 362 species<br />

(and subspecies). The mean number of records per species for species with greater than 10<br />

records was 146.2, with a mean of 24.4 for the percent of records <strong>in</strong> NRS. Of these<br />

rema<strong>in</strong><strong>in</strong>g species, 46 species had 45% or greater of <strong>in</strong>dividual site records located with<strong>in</strong> the<br />

NRS. Of those 46 species, none were listed as threatened. The majority of species had<br />

preferences for environments with trees with areas of forest and woodland dom<strong>in</strong>at<strong>in</strong>g.<br />

Ra<strong>in</strong>forest was also a prevalent habitat used by this list of species, but not greatly<br />

consider<strong>in</strong>g its extensive reservation and relatively large number of species known to use<br />

ra<strong>in</strong>forest. Almost all of the species <strong>in</strong> the list come from eastern Australia, <strong>in</strong>dicat<strong>in</strong>g that<br />

species from two-thirds of Australia are not well studied or recorded.<br />
