Biodiversity Summary for NRM Regions
Species List
What is the summary for and where does it come from?
This list has been produced by the Department of Sustainability, Environment, Water,
Population and Communities (SEWPC) for the Natural Resource Management Spatial
Information System.
The list was produced using the Australian Natural Heritage Assessment Tool
(ANHAT), which analyses data from a range of plant and animal surveys and collections
from across Australia to automatically generate a report for each NRM region. Data
sources (Appendix 2) include national and state herbaria, museums, state governments,
CSIRO, Birds Australia and a range of surveys conducted by or for DEWHA.
For each family of plant and animal covered by ANHAT (Appendix 1), this document
gives the number of species in the country and how many of them are found in the region.
It also identifies species listed as Vulnerable, Critically Endangered, Endangered or
Conservation Dependent under the EPBC Act 1999.
A biodiversity summary for this region is also available.
For more information please see: www.environment.gov.au/heritage/anhat/index.html
Limitations
• ANHAT currently contains information on the distribution of over 30,000 Australian taxa.
This includes all mammals, birds, reptiles, frogs and fish, 137 families of vascular plants
(over 15,000 species) and a range of invertebrate groups. Groups not yet covered in
ANHAT are not included in the list.
• The data used come from authoritative sources, but they are not perfect. All species
names have been confirmed as valid species names, but it is not possible to confirm all
species locations. The list summarises the input data, so errors in the data received
would be reflected in this document.
• The scientific names and taxonomic concepts used in this report reflect an ANHAT view
of the data and not necessarily that found in government censuses, databases or other
authoritative lists.

Species List for NRM Region
Kangaroo Island, South Australia
This list was produced by the Department of Sustainability, Environment, Water, Population
and Communities using the Australian Natural Heritage Assessment Tool (ANHAT). ANHAT
is a database and decision support tool which uses over 33 million specimen and survey
records for vertebrates, selected invertebrates and 137 vascular plant families (over 15,000
species). This species list does not include exotic or extinct species.
Species are shown only if they belong to the families covered in ANHAT as shown in
Appendix 1 and ANHAT holds records of the species from this region.
