Indicator protocols: status and trends of significant native species and ecological communities

Product Information

Significant native species and ecological communities are considered to be important natural values or assets. This is reflected in the recognition afforded to them in international treaties, legislation, investment programs and within the broader community. Concern about further decline and possible extinction is widespread and is reflected in the prominence in the media and in public debate, especially in regard to development proposals or management regimes which have the potential to further threaten significant native species and ecological communities.
