Cupressaceae
The ANHAT database has 14539 records for 26 species and subspecies of
Cupressaceae. No species of Cupressaceae are considered extinct.
Three species account for approximately 50% of the total species records in ANHAT
(
Table 297). These species have over 1500 records each. Callitris glaucophylla is
known from over 3400 record sites.

species records in ANHAT.
Species No. Records % total records
Callitris verrucosa 1552 10.67

Two species had 30 or fewer individual site records in the ANHAT database (
Table 16). Both species are classified as vulnerable. There are too few species and
too little information available to confidently determine any patterns in the categories
developed in the analysis of this family. Exclusion of these poorly recorded species
eliminates 35 records.

Removal of the records for poorly recorded species leaves 14504 records in ANHAT
for 24 species (and subspecies). The mean number of records per species with greater
than 30 records was 604. These have a mean of 41% of their records in PAs.
Nine species of Cupressaceae had 45% or greater of individual site records located
within PAs (Table 299). Of those nine species, none are classified as threatened. All
of the species in this category are from eastern Australia. Only one of these species
was recorded to have greater than 90% of its available records located within the
NRS.
