Coordinates

For threatened ecological communities where the distribution is well known, maps are derived fromrecovery plans, State vegetation maps, remote sensing imagery and other sources. Where threatenedecological community distributions are less well known, existing vegetation maps and point locationdata are used to produce indicative distribution maps.

The information presented in this report has been provided by a range of data sources asacknowledged at the end of the report.

- migratory species that are very widespread, vagrant, or only occur in small numbers

Only selected species covered by the following provisions of the EPBC Act have been mapped:

The following groups have been mapped, but may not cover the complete distribution of the species:

For species where the distributions are well known, maps are digitised from sources such asrecovery plans and detailed habitat studies. Where appropriate, core breeding, foraging and roostingareas are indicated under 'type of presence'. For species whose distributions are less well known,point locations are collated from government wildlife authorities, museums, and non-governmentorganisations; bioclimatic distribution models are generated and these validated by experts. In somecases, the distribution maps are based solely on expert knowledge.

- non-threatened seabirds which have only been mapped for recorded breeding sites

- some terrestrial species that overfly the Commonwealth marine area

- threatened species listed as extinct or considered as vagrants
