Mating system and fitness data for families of <em>Eucalyptus socialis</em> grown in common garden experiments. Families collected across a fragmentation gradient. Open-pollinated progeny arrays were collected and reared in the common garden experiments. These open-pollinated progeny arrays were also genotyped at microsatellite loci to generate the mating system data. Data showed association between fragmentation on mating system, which in turn impacted fitness. Please contact owner prior to use.

Microsatellite genotype data for 3 eucalypt species. Data include progeny and adults from across a gradient of habitat fragmentation. These microsatellite data could be further used in additional analyses, e.g. genetic diversity. Samples collected from stands on eucalypts as follows: non-neighbouring adult trees had leaf and seeds collected. Leaf was used to genotype the adults. Seeds were germinated, tissue then collected, and the same microsatellites genotyped - i.e. open-pollinated progeny arrays. The dataset is possibly useful for meta-analysis or review of effects of habitat fragmentation on plants (e.g. mating system, genetic diversity etc).

The study area examined was within the boundaries of the Breakaway Reserve in the arid/semi arid region. The objectives of the study was to systematically sample the vegetation of the range of vegetation associations within the area by using a series of grids and to map the major vegetation associations using aerial photography. Vertebrate fauna were also surveyed at a series of sites within each major vegetation association in areas showing reasonably homogeneous vegetation and least disturbance.

The dataset includes two main components: (1) Tree survey - data on the species, diameter and height of individual trees, along with a count of seedlings and saplings; and (2) Coarse woody debris - data on the size and decay class of downed coarse woody debris encountered in the plots.

A Biological Resources inventory and monitoring survey of the Flinders Ranges National Park - Oraparinna Section. Study was carried out for the Unit of Vertebrate Field Study Techniques for the Associate Diploma in Wildlife and Park Management (South Australian College of Advanced Education) Permanent vegetation photopoints described in the draft Management Plan were re-sampled at the request of the Nat. Parks & Wildlife Service to monitor long-term vegetation changes and to record observations of vertebrates. Regeneration of Native Pine (Callitris spp) was studied to determine factors affecting variations in seed distribution around a seed source. The results may be used as the basis for further studies in regeneration patterns of this species. Kangaroo surveys were repeated on established transects as part of regular monitoring or Kangaroos and Euros in the Oraparinna and Wilpena Pound areas. Reptile, bird and mammal trapping was carried out at the photopoints and in other areas during the study. Some of these sites have been remonitored in 1994, 1995, 1996, 1997, 1999 & 2000 The Flinders Ranges National Park Survey is part of the Biological Survey of South Australia Program which is a series of systematic surveys conducted across the state between 1971 and the present with the broad aim of providing a baseline inventory of South Australia's flora and fauna biodiversity.

This biological survey involved the collation of existing information on the biology of Innes National Park (Yorke Peninsula, South Australia) together with systematic sampling during the period of the survey. The survey objectives were to sample and map the vegetation of the park and systematically record the fauna present at a small number of representative sites throughout the park.

The fauna and flora survey of the Hopkins Creek area was conducted in Nov/Dec 2003. The area had been recently purchased by the Department of Environment & Heritage and had not been surveyed before, even though it supports a large area of native habitat that requires documenting. Surrounding land parcels are heavily impacted by grazing and tourism respectively. By identifying the most suitable/sustainable location for a walking trail sensitive breeding, foraging and plant recruitment habitat may be left undisturbed and the area may be enjoyed by the public without adverse effect. Significant expertise from specialist groups was utilised to lead the bird, fish, mammal, herpetology and plant components of the field survey at 7 different sites with different habitats.
