Role

Principal Investigator

Description

This project involves the assessment of population status, abundance, and ecology of 48 NCA/EPBC Vulnerable to Critically Endangered plant species. State of condition reports or population summaries will be generated for the species identified. We also propose to collect living material to investigate the feasibility for vegetative propagation. The data will be provided to DES for use in reviews of threat classification and development of management programs. The proposed project will generate key information on the status of 48 species of threatened plants and provide an important baseline for ongoing ecological research on these species.
