Survey/Project Name: | Watts Gully - Nature Foundation Reserve |
Abstract: | Nature Foundation SA is a not-for-profit environmental organisation that works to Save, Protect and Restore South Australia's natural biodiversity. A key area of Nature Foundation's work is purchasing and managing land with significant conservation value and restoring it to its natural state. This land protects threatened species, builds wildlife corridors and provides a base from which scientific studies can be undertaken. The Watts Gully property was acquired by Nature Foundation in 2017 with the aim of documenting its biodiversity and providing ongoing protection by registering it under a Heritage Agreement. |

Vegetation: | Fauna and Flora data collected as part of a Heritage Agreement application assessment was collected using the Native Vegetation Council Bushland Assessment Method. Plant specimens were not lodged at the Herbarium. Plant specimens for identification purposes must only be collected with the landholders' permission, and not from threatened species. It is anticipated additional flora and fauna records will be collected mainly on an opportunistic basis. Kate Graham has collected data using remote cameras. | ||
