Vegetation community mapping for a small parcel of land abutting Goonook Nature Reserve by Paul McDonald, 2002. Traditional API methodology was used to complete this job across five reserves for the Manning Area, Mid North Coast NPWS Region:; 1.Brimbin Nature Reserve and adjoining freehold lands.; 2.Coxcomb NR and Anderson VCA.; 3.Khatambuhl NR; 4.Two sections of Killabakh NR ; 5.Freehold purchase area on northwest corner of Goonook NR, around Mount Goonook.; The project consisted of fieldwork where possible and then interpretation of the photos to define the species types present. Some follow up fieldwork was undertaken.; Rather than assign a species type label to each polygon on the area, the polygon was given a number from 1 to n, for each area. A table for the area has a description of each polygon. VIS_ID 314

Vegetation community mapping for Brimbin Nature Reserve and surrounds by Paul McDonald, 2002.

Vegetation map digitised from Porteners, M.F. (1998). The composition and extent of the present vegetation in Weetalibah Nature Reserve is described and mapped at 1:50 000 scale from quadrat samples, field traverses and aerial photograph interpretation. Three vegetation communities are described and 125 species (127 taxa) of vascular plants recorded from 38 families, several of which are at their north-western geographical limit or regionally restricted. One species is listed under Schedule 2 of the 1995 NSW Threatened Species Conservation Act." VIS_ID 1014

Vegetation mapping for Wallabadah Nature Reserve. Updated API and transferred to 1:25,000 topo maps by Travis Peak,Natural Assets Environmental Survey and Assessment, 2003 under contract for NPWS, Hunter Region. NPWS commissioned a detailed vegetation survey following a threatened species assessment one year previously (Peake 1998a) for proposed timber removal along the boundary of the reserve. The report required a survey along the fenceline to determine the presence of significant vegetation communities, flora species and fauna habitat. In 2003 NPWS commissioned a report to document the vegetation of the reserve, incorporating recent vegetation plots undertaken by the Nandewar biogeographical region vegetation survey and to include a more detailed 1:25,000 vegetation map.; ; VIS_ID 703

Burnt Down Scrub Nature Reserve vegetation mapping was undertaken by Dr John T. Hunter in 1999 by contract for the NPWS Northern Tableland Region. The reserve is 8 km NNW of the junction of the Mann and Clarence Rivers, 15 km SW of Baryugil and is separated by 4 km of cleared land from the Redbank Creek area of Washpool National Park. The reserve is included under Portions 94 and 99 of the Parish of Carnham and the County of Drake. The vegetation of Burnt Down Scrub Nature Reserve is described and mapped (scale1:25 000). Five communities are defined based on PATN analysis. Five communities are mapped based on ground truthing, air photo interpretation and landform. Most communities are of Open Forest and Closed Forest structure. The distribution of communities is related to past disturbances, particularly fire but also drainage and protection from the west. Many of the communities show considerable variation and intergrade along common boundaries. All communities are considered adequately represented in the current reserve network. VIS_ID 4720

Arakoola Nature Reserve vegetation mapping was undertaken by Dr John T. Hunter in 1999 by contract for the NPWS Northern Tableland Region. Arakoola Nature Reserve lies 2 km south from Coolatai and 100 km north west of Inverell. The reserve is on the northern end of the Mastermans Range. Biologically the reserve is within the North Western Slopes botanical region and half within the Brigalow Belt South Bioregion and half within the Nandewar Bioregion. The vegetation of Arakoola Nature Reserve is described and mapped (scale 1:50 000). Seven communities are defined based on PATN analysis. Seven communities are mapped based on ground truthing, air photo interpretation and landform. Most communities are of a Woodland structure, however Grasslands, Herbfields exist along with Shrublands. The distribution of communities is related to past disturbances, drainage, soil type, altitude, and protection from the north. Many of the communities show considerable variation and intergrade along common boundaries and in particular on intermediate soil types. A number of communities are at their distributional limits, highly restricted or under represented in the current reserve network. VIS_ID 4705

Freemantle Nature Reserve vegetation mapping conducted in 1999-2000. This mapping was part of the vegetation survey of Mullion Range State Recreation Area, Wambool Nature Reserve, Freemantle Nature Reserve, Girralang Nature Reserve and Eugowra Nature Reserve undertaken for the Central West District of NSW by Marianne F. Portners in 2000. Report for the NSW National Parks and Wildlife Service. The composition and extent of the present vegetation within Wambool, Freemantle, Girralang and Eugowra Nature Reserves and Mullion Range State Recreation Area (SRA), in the Central West region of NSW, is described and mapped at 1:25 000 scale (1:50 000 scale for Eugowra) from intensive quadrat samples, field traverses and aerial photograph interpretation. Eleven vegetation communities are described and 302 species (308 taxa) of vascular plants recorded from 70 families, several of which are at their geographical limits or regionally restricted. A significantly high proportion of species (19%) are exotic. VIS_ID 1011
