BYRON FLORA AND FAUNA STUDY, 1999 40. EUREKA Eureka contained highly significant areas of remnant native vegetation-Big Scrub rainforest remnants (Table 8.1, Map 3). The largest remnant was Andrew Johnston Big Scrub NR but five other identified Big Scrub remnants were also present in the area. A number of other rainforest remnants were also located during the survey adding to the value of this area. Rehabilitation, enlargement of remnant areas and reconnection between remnants is recommended (Section 7). These remnants support a number of Threatened flora and fauna species (see list below). Threatened flora species Arrow-head vine Ball Nut Isoglossa Onion Cedar – two recorded locations in the study area Red Boppel Nut Red Lilly Pilly Southern Ochrosia Threatened fauna species Common Planigale Little Bentwing-bat Rose-crowned Fruit-dove 41. EUREKA EAST Eureka east contained highly fragmented areas of native vegetation (Table 8.1, Map 3). Rehabilitation, enlargement of remnant areas and reconnection between remnants is recommended (Section 7). The lack of Threatened flora and fauna species records reflected low survey intensity in the area. Eureka east contained potential habitat for a number of Threatened species. 42. BANGALOW Bangalow contained highly fragmented areas of remnant native vegetation including Big Scrub rainforest remnants (Table 8.1, Map 3). A number of other rainforest remnants were also located during the survey adding to the value of this area. Bangalow also contained important remnants of riparian rainforest. The remnants supported a number of Threatened flora and fauna species (see list below). Measures to assist fencing, rehabilitation, enlargement of remnant areas and reconnection between remnants are recommended (Section 7). Fencing and rehabilitation of riparian areas should also be encouraged. Threatened flora species Durobby Threatened fauna species Square-tailed Kite – five recorded locations in the study area Rose-crowned Fruit-dove 43. COOPERS SHOOT NORTH Coopers Shoot north contained highly fragmented areas of remnant native vegetation. Hayters Hill NR falls within this area (Table 8.1, Map 3). Coopers Shoot north also contained small remnants of riparian rainforest. The remnants supported a number of Threatened flora and fauna species (see list below). Measures to assist rehabilitation, enlargement of remnant areas and reconnection between remnants are recommended (Section 7). Fencing and rehabilitation of riparian areas should also be encouraged. Coopers Shoot north was identified as forming part of a potential corridor linking the coastal vegetation corridor with the core habitat areas in the hinterland (Section 8). Threatened flora species Arrow-head vine Durobby Red Lilly Pilly Rough-shelled Bush Nut Stinking Cryptocarya Threatened fauna species Koala 245
A GREENPRINT FOR A SUSTAINABLE FUTURE 44. SKINNERS SHOOT Skinners Shoot contained a diversity of vegetation associations including swamp sclerophyll forest, subtropical rainforest, moist to wet sclerophyll forest, and shrubland/sedgeland (Map 3). A number of Threatened fauna species are supported by these diverse habitats (see list below). The area included old growth eucalypt forest (Map 5). Skinners Shoot forms an integral part of a coastal vegetation corridor. Measures to assist rehabilitation, enlargement of native vegetation areas and reconnection between remnants are recommended (Section 7 and 8). Threatened flora species Arrow-head vine Durobby Red Lilly Pilly Threatened fauna species Black Bittern Bush-hen Rose-crowned Fruit-dove White-eared Monarch Koala Common Blossom-bat Little Bentwing-bat Eastern Long-eared Bat 45. OLD BANGALOW RD-CEMETERY RD Old Bangalow Rd-Cemetery Rd was largely comprised of swamp sclerophyll forest and moist to wet sclerophyll forest with small pockets of rainforest (Map 3). The area included old growth eucalypt forest (Map 5). Old Bangalow Rd-Cemetery Rd forms an integral part of a coastal vegetation corridor. Measures to assist rehabilitation, enlargement of native vegetation areas and reconnection between remnants are recommended (Section 7 and 8). Threatened flora species Rusty Rose Walnut Crystal Creek Walnut Threatened fauna species Common Planigale Koala 46. COOPERS SHOOT SOUTH Coopers Shoot south contained a diversity of native vegetation associations including swamp sclerophyll forest, Brush Box forest, banksia forest and subtropical rainforest (Map 3). An important rainforest remnant, Hogans Bluff, was included within this area. Remnant rainforest vegetation supports a number of Threatened flora and fauna species (see list below). Rehabilitation, enlargement of remnant areas and reconnection between remnants is recommended (Section 7). Coopers Shoot south incorporates an area identified as a potential corridor linking the coastal vegetation corridor with core native vegetation areas in the hinterland (Section 7 and 8). 246 Threatened flora species Arrow-head vine Durobby Red Lilly Pilly Small-leaved Tamarind – two recorded locations in the study area Threatened fauna species The lack of Threatened fauna species records reflects low survey intensity in the area. Coopers Shoot south contained potential habitat for a number of Threatened species. 47. BOOYONG Booyong contained highly significant areas of remnant native vegetation-Big Scrub rainforest remnants including fragments of riparian rainforest (Table 8.1, Map 3). The largest remnant was the Booyong remnant but other identified Big Scrub remnants are also present in the area. Remnant rainforest vegetation supports a number of Threatened flora and fauna species (see list below). Rehabilitation, enlargement of remnant
