Removal of extinct and poorly recorded species leaves 119441 records for 350 species
(and subspecies). The mean number of records per species for species with greater
than 30 records was 341, with a mean of 50.4 for the percent of records in the NRS.
One eighty and six species of Epacridaceae had 45% or greater of individual site
records located within PAs (). Five species have all of their available records within
the NRS.
Table 71). This is more than half of the species that have more than 30 records,
indicating a relatively high level of reservation for the better-known species in this
family. Of those 186 species, seven species are classified as threatened, including one
species classified as critically endangered. These species are located throughout the
southern half of Australia, with a relatively large number of species being endemic to
Tasmania. Most of these well-reserved species do not have ranges greater than
10,000 km 2 , but there are several species with large ranges (> 70,000 km 2 ). Five
species have all of their available records within the NRS.
