THREATENED SPECIES CONSERVATION ACT 1995

FINAL DETERMINATION

The Scientific Committee, established by the Threatened Species Conservation Act 1995 (the Act), has made a Final Determination under section 23 of the Act to list the Blue Mountains Basalt Forest in the Sydney Basin Bioregion as an ENDANGERED ECOLOGICAL COMMUNITY Part 3 of Schedule 1 of the Act.

This determination contains the following information:

Parts 1 & 2: Section 4 of the Act defines an ecological community as “an assemblage of species occupying a particular area”. These features of Blue Mountains Basalt Forest in the Sydney Basin Bioregion are described in Parts 1 and 2 of this Determination, respectively.

Part 3: Part 3 of this Determination describes the eligibility for listing of this ecological community in Part 2 of Schedule 1A of the Act according to criteria as prescribed by the Threatened Species Conservation Regulation 2010.

Part 4: Part 4 of this Determination provides additional information intended to aid recognition of this community in the field.

Part 1. Assemblage of species

1.1Blue Mountains Basalt Forest in the Sydney Basin Bioregion (hereafter referred to as Blue Mountains Basalt Forest) is characterised by the assemblage of species listed below.

Acacia elata Acacia melanoxylon Acaena novae-zelandiae Ajuga australis Austrocynoglossum latifolium Blechnum cartilagineum Blechnum nudum Carex appressa Centella asiatica Clematis aristata Cyathea australis Cyathea leichhardtiana Daviesia ulicifolia Desmodium varians Dichondra spp. Doodia aspera Doryphora sassafras Echinopogon ovatus Eucalyptus blaxlandii Eucalyptus cypellocarpa Eucalyptus fastigata Eucalyptus oreades Eucalyptus radiata subsp. radiata Eustrephus latifolius Geitonoplesium cymosum Geranium homeanum Geranium potentilloides

Glycine tabacina Hedycarya angustifolia Indigofera australis Lagenifera stipitata Lomandra longifolia Marsdenia flavescens Melicytus dentatus Microlaena stipoides Myrsine howittiana Oplismenus imbecillis Pandorea pandorana Pellaea falcata Plantago debilis Polyscias sambucifolia Polystichum proliferum Poranthera microphylla Prostanthera lasianthos Pteridium esculentum Pyrrosia rupestris Senecio linearifolius Sigesbeckia orientalis Smilax australis Stellaria flaccida Stellaria pungens Tylophora barbata Urtica incisa Viola hederacea

1.2 The total species list of the community across all occurrences is likely to be considerably larger than that given above. Due to variation across the range of the community, not all of the above species are present at every site and many sites may also contain species not listed above.

Characteristic species may be abundant or rare and comprise only a subset of the complete list of species recorded in known examples of the community. Some characteristic species show a high fidelity (are relatively restricted) to the community, but may also occur in other communities, while others are more typically found in a range of communities.

The number and identity of species recorded at a site is a function of sampling scale and effort. In general, the number of species recorded is likely to increase with the size of the site and there is a greater possibility of recording species that are rare in the landscape.

Government Notices

792 NSW Government Gazette No 25 of 20 March 2015

Species presence and relative abundance (dominance) will vary from site to site as a function of environmental factors such as soil properties (chemical composition, texture, depth, drainage), topography and climate and through time as a function of disturbance (e.g. fire, logging, grazing) and weather (e.g. flooding, drought, extreme heat or cold).

At any one time, above ground individuals of some species may be absent, but the species may be represented below ground in the soil seed bank or as dormant structures such as bulbs, corms, rhizomes, rootstocks or lignotubers.

The species listed above are vascular plants, however the community also includes micro-organisms, fungi and cryptogamic plants as well as vertebrate and invertebrate fauna. These components of the community are less well documented.

Part 2. Particular area occupied by the ecological community

2.1 The assemblage of species listed in Part 1.1 above which characterises Blue Mountains Basalt Forest occurs within the Sydney Basin Bioregion. This Bioregion is defined by SEWPaC (2012) Interim Biogeographic Regionalisation for Australia, Version 7. Department of Sustainability, Environment, Water, Population and Communities. http://www.environment.gov.au/parks/nrs/science/bioregion-framework/ibra/maps.html

2.2Blue Mountains Basalt Forest occurs on basalt caps overlying sandstone and adjacent areas where soils are influenced by weathering of upslope basalt.

2.3 It is the intent of the Scientific Committee that all occurrences of the ecological community (both recorded and as yet unrecorded and independent of their condition) that occur within this bioregion be covered by this Determination.

Part 3. Eligibility for listing

3.1Reasons for determining eligibility for listing

3.1.1 Blue Mountains Basalt Forest has undergone a large reduction in geographical distribution. Blue Mountains Basalt Forest is a forest community characterised by long-lived trees and shrubs. IUCN (2014) suggests that the appropriate time scale for assessing reduction is three generations or 10 years, whichever is the longer. For the characteristic overstorey and some understorey species, three generations exceeds 200 years. On that basis, time since European settlement represents an appropriate time scale for assessing reduction. Vegetation on basalt was preferentially cleared during early settlement so that vegetation on basalt currently exists only as small remnants (Keith 2004). Blue Mountains Basalt Forest is equivalent to map unit p72 (Tozer et al. 2010). Blue Mountains Basalt Forest extends beyond the study area used by Tozer et al. (2010) and there is uncertainty about the extent of clearing but it is likely to be in the range 50–70% (D. Binns in litt. Oct. 2013).

3.1.2 Blue Mountains Basalt Forest is at risk of further reduction in distribution. Less than half of the remaining area is in conservation reserves (Tozer et al. 2010). Areas outside reserves are close to urban or rural residential areas and are subject to ongoing clearing for residential development and development of other infrastructure.

3.1.3 Blue Mountains Basalt Forest is subject to ongoing threats in addition to the risk of further clearing. It is susceptible to weed invasion due to proximity to urban and rural residential areas, high soil fertility and large boundary to area ratios of many of the remaining small remnants. Proximity to urban areas also constrains fire management, leading to altered fire regimes with potentially adverse impacts. Some areas may be burnt at short intervals to maintain fire protection zones for urban areas. ‘High frequency fire resulting in the disruption of life cycle processes in plants and animals and loss of vegetation structure and composition’ is listed as a Key Threatening Process under the Act. Much of the remaining area of Blue Mountains Basalt Forest was previously subject to livestock grazing, including areas now in conservation reserves (Tozer et al. 2010). Grazing continues in areas on private land. Grazing by stock can simplify floristic composition and vegetation structure by trampling, removal of palatable species, prevention of regeneration and facilitation of weed invasion.

3.1.4 The extent of occurrence of Blue Mountains Basalt Forest is estimated to be between 185 km2 (known occurrences) and 5400 km2 (known and potential occurrences), based on a minimum convex polygon enclosing all occurrences, the method of assessment recommended by IUCN (2014). The area of occupancy (AOO) is estimated to be between 120 and 180 km2 (D. Binns in litt. Oct. 2013), based on 2 x 2 km grid cells, the scale recommended for assessing area of occupancy by IUCN (2014). Based on the AOO the Blue Mountains Basalt Forest has a highly restricted distribution.

3.2Criteria for listing

Blue Mountains Basalt Forest in the Sydney Basin Bioregion is eligible to be listed as an Endangered Ecological Community in accordance with section 12 of the Act as, in the opinion of the Scientific Committee, it is facing a very high risk of extinction in New South Wales in the near future, as determined in accordance with the following criteria as prescribed by the Threatened Species Conservation Regulation 2010:

Clause 17 Reduction in geographic distribution of the ecological community The ecological community has undergone, is observed, estimated, inferred or reasonably suspected to have undergone or is likely to undergo within a time span appropriate to the life cycle and habitat characteristics of its component species: (b) a large reduction in geographic distribution.

Government Notices

793 NSW Government Gazette No 25 of 20 March 2015

Clause 18 Restricted geographic distribution of the ecological community The ecological community’s geographic distribution is estimated or inferred to be: (b) highly restricted,and the nature of its distribution makes it likely that the action of a threatening process could cause it to decline ordegrade in extent or ecological function over a time span appropriate to the life cycle and habitat characteristics of the ecological community’s component species.

Professor MICHELLE LEISHMAN Chairperson NSW Scientific Committee

Part 4. Additional information about the ecological community

The following information is additional to that required to meet the definition of an ecological community under the Act but is provided to assist in the recognition of Blue Mountains Basalt Forest in the field. Given natural variability, along with disturbance history, Blue Mountains Basalt Forest may sometimes occur outside the typical range of variation in the features described below.

4.1Blue Mountains Basalt Forest is usually a tall eucalypt forest (over 30 m in mature stands) with a dense shrub or small tree layer, often including tree ferns (Cyathea spp.) and moist herbaceous groundcover (Tozer et al. 2010). The canopy composition is variable but usually dominated by one or more of the species Eucalyptus fastigata, E. blaxlandii, E. cypellocarpa or E. radiata subsp. radiata. Other canopy species which may be locally common or dominant include E. oreades (which is often dominant on south-facing slopes at the transition to a sandstone substrate) and E. viminalis (Tozer et al. 2010, D. Connolly pers. comm. Nov. 2013). A eucalypt canopy may be absent from previously cleared or otherwise highly disturbed stands.

4.2Blue Mountains Basalt Forest has been recorded south of the Wolgan and Colo Rivers in Wollemi IBRA subregion (SEWPaC 2012). The major area of distribution is the Blue Mountains including the basalt caps of Mount Irvine, Mount Wilson, Mount Bell, Mount Tomah, Mount Banks, Mount Caley and Mount Hay. However, there may be isolated outliers north to Mount Cameron and Mount Monundilla. Blue Mountains Basalt Forest occurs mostly between 750 m and 1050 m altitude, in areas with annual rainfall of 950 to 1350 mm (Tozer et al. 2010).

4.3Blue Mountains Basalt Forest may grade into Intermediate Temperate Rainforest (map unit p116) on sheltered sites, into Shale-Basalt Sheltered Forest (map unit p168) where basalt adjoins shale or into Sandstone Scarp Warm Temperate Rainforest (map unit p114) on steep, south-facing sandstone slopes (Tozer et al. 2010). Intergrading vegetation is considered part of this determination if it is floristically more similar to Blue Mountains Basalt Forest than these adjoining communities. Shale-Basalt Sheltered Forest includes Blue Mountains Shale Cap Forest in the Sydney Basin Bioregion, an Endangered Ecological Community under the Act.

4.4Blue Mountains Basalt Forest is floristically similar to two other communities listed as Endangered Ecological Communities under the Act, Robertson Basalt Tall Open-forest in the Sydney Basin Bioregion and Mount Gibraltar Forest in the Sydney Basin Bioregion but may be distinguished from these by differences in species composition and relative abundance of characteristic species. For example, species which are usually more common in Blue Mountains Basalt Forest compared to the two other communities include Acacia elata, Cyathea spp., Doryphora sassafras, Geranium homeanum, Indigofera australis and Senecio linearifolius (D Binns in litt. July 2012; M Tozer in litt. Nov 2013). Blue Mountains Basalt Forest is geographically disjunct from these communities (by at least 70 km for known occurrences) and occurs at generally higher altitudes. It also differs from Mount Gibraltar Forest because the latter occurs on syenite. Blue Mountains Basalt Forest is also distinct from Tablelands Basalt Forest in the Sydney Basin and South East Highlands Bioregions (map unit p20 of Tozer et al. 2010).

4.5Blue Mountains Basalt Forest is included within the endangered ecological community listed under the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999 as ‘Upland Basalt Eucalypt Forests of the Sydney Basin Bioregion’. However, the community described in the Commonwealth listing advice is more broadly circumscribed and includes two other communities currently listed separately under the Act (Robertson Basalt Tall Open-forest in the Sydney Basin Bioregion and Mount Gibraltar Forest in the Sydney Basin Bioregion), as well as vegetation on basalt in the northern part of Wollemi Subregion, most of which is not included in Blue Mountains Basalt Forest. Conversely, the Commonwealth listing advice excludes some patches, here regarded as Blue Mountains Basalt Forest, on the basis of condition or structure thresholds (including patch size, ground cover and tree density).

4.6Blue Mountains Basalt Forest has been recorded in the local government areas of Blue Mountains and Lithgow. However, unrecorded stands of the ecological community may occur in the Hawkesbury local government area or elsewhere in the Bioregion.

1.1 Elderslie Banksia Scrub Forest in the Sydney Basin Bioregion (hereafter Elderslie Banksia Scrub Forest) is characterised by the assemblage of species listed below.

Acacia decurrens Acacia ulicifolia Angophora subvelutina Aotus ericoides Aristida ramosa subsp. ramosa Banksia integrifolia Brachyloma daphnoides Clerodendrum tomentosum Dianella revoluta Dichondra repens Dillwynia glaberrima Duboisia myoporoides Eragrostis brownii Eucalyptus botryoides Exocarpos cupressiformis Gahnia clarkei Gleichenia dicarpa

Glycine clandestina Gompholobium minus Hibbertia diffusa Imperata cylindrica Kennedia rubicunda Kunzea ambigua Leptospermum polygalifolium subsp. polygalifolium Lomandra longifolia Melaleuca decora Persoonia linearis Phyllanthus gunnii Pimelea linifolia Platysace lanceolata Pteridium esculentum Ricinocarpos pinifolius Veronica plebeia

1.2 The total species list of the community across all occurrences is likely to be considerably larger than that given above, with many species present above-ground in only one or two sites or in low abundance. Because of natural variation across the range of the community, the number of species present at any particular site is thus likely to be considerably less than the total listed above.

Characteristic species may be abundant or rare and comprise only a subset of the complete list of species recorded in known examples of the community. Some characteristic species show a high fidelity (are relatively restricted) to the community, but may also occur in other communities, while others are more typically found in a range of communities.

The number and identity of species recorded at a site is a function of sampling scale and effort. In general, the number of species recorded is likely to increase with the size of the site and there is a greater possibility of recording species that are rare in the landscape.

Species presence and relative abundance (dominance) will vary from site to site as a function of environmental factors such as soil properties (chemical composition, texture, depth, drainage), topography and climate and through time as a function of disturbance (e.g. fire, logging, grazing) and weather (e.g. flooding, drought, extreme heat or cold).

At any one time, above ground individuals of some species may be absent but the species may be represented below ground in the soil seed bank or as dormant structures such as bulbs, corms, rhizomes, rootstocks or lignotubers.

The species listed above are vascular plants, however the community also includes micro-organisms, fungi, cryptogamic plants and a diverse vertebrate and invertebrate fauna. These components of the community are less well documented.

Part 2. Particular area occupied by the ecological community

2.1 The assemblage of species listed in Part 1.1 above which characterises the Elderslie Banksia Scrub Forest occurs within the Sydney Basin Bioregion. This Bioregion is defined by SEWPaC (2012) Interim Biogeographic Regionalisation for Australia, Version 7. Department of Sustainability, Environment, Water, Population and Communities. http://www.environment.gov.au/parks/nrs/science/bioregion-framework/ibra/maps.html

2.2 It is the intent of the Scientific Committee that all occurrences of the ecological community (both recorded and as yet unrecorded and independent of their condition) that occur within this bioregion be covered by this Determination.

Part 3. Eligibility for listing

3.1.1 Occurrences of Elderslie Banksia Scrub Forest have been reduced to very small fragmented remnants by clearing and sand extraction. No reliable estimate of the pre-European distribution is available. Estimates of the current distribution range from 17.3 ha (Clements 2002) to <15 ha (Tozer et al. 2010). Clements (2002) identified a total of 12 separate remnant patches, five of which were relatively intact, two were intact but with less native species representation and five were in poor condition. Six of the patches were 1–3.2 ha in size, the rest were 0.13–0.9 ha (Clements 2002). The patches are localised to the Spring Farm area near Camden (Clements et al. 2002) and, even in the intact stands native species richness is low, indicating their degraded nature (M. Tozer in litt. Feb 2014). No occurrences of Elderslie Banksia Scrub Forest are presently included in conservation reserves (Tozer et al. 2010).

3.1.2 The extent of occurrence (EOO) and area of occupancy (AOO) of Elderslie Banksia Scrub Forest are estimated to be 4 km2. The estimate of AOO is based on one 2 x 2 km grid cell, the scale recommended for assessing AOO by IUCN (2014). The geographic distribution of Elderslie Banksia Scrub Forest is thus very highly restricted.

3.1.3 The remnants of Elderslie Banksia Scrub Forest are subject to a range of threats. Land clearing has been extensive in this area, beginning with clearing for agriculture from the early 19th Century. More recent land uses have included poultry farms (1961–1990s), sand mining (1960s to present) and urbanisation (1979 to present) (Clements et al. 2002). The land uses of the Spring Farm area were described by Clements et al. (2002) as ‘sand extraction, abandoned orchards/vineyards, working and abandoned poultry farms, grazing, unmanaged pastures, rubbish tips and drainage ways; small areas of disturbed native vegetation occur within and fringing these areas’. Since that study, a substantial part of the Spring Farm area has been redeveloped with new housing and roads replacing the previous land uses (Camden Council 2011). The small size and fragmented distribution of the remaining stands of Elderslie Banksia Scrub Forest reduces connectivity between patches, increasing the risk of extinction of taxa in very small stands (Stocklin et al. 2000). ‘Clearing of native vegetation’ is listed as a Key Threatening Process under the Act.

3.1.4 Elderslie Banksia Scrub Forest occurs on sandy soils which are subject to nutrient enrichment from surrounding development (G. Steenbeeke in litt. Oct 2013), facilitating invasion by exotic weeds (Leishman and Thomson 2005). Weed invasion in Elderslie Banksia Scrub Forest occurred in the past and is continuing (Clements 2002). The following exotic invasive plant species have been observed in remnants of Elderslie Banksia Scrub Forest: Raphiolepis indica (Indian Hawthorn), Lycium ferocissimum (Boxthorn), Pyracantha angustifolia (Firethorn), Olea europaea subsp. cuspidata (African Olive), Lantana camara (Lantana) and Eragrostis curvula (African Lovegrass) (P. Cuneo in litt. Oct 2013; C. Morris in litt. Dec 2013). ‘Invasion of native plant communities by exotic perennial grasses’, ‘Invasion of native plant communities by African Olive Olea europaea L. subsp. cuspidata’, ‘Invasion, establishment and spread of Lantana camara’ and ‘Loss and degradation of native plant and animal habitat by invasion of escaped garden plants, including aquatic plants’ are listed as Key Threatening Processes under the Act.

3.2Criteria for listing

Elderslie Banksia Scrub Forest is eligible to be listed as a Critically Endangered Ecological Community in accordance with section 12 of the Act as, in the opinion of the Scientific Committee, it is facing an extremely high risk of extinction in New South Wales in the immediate future, as determined in accordance with the following criteria as prescribed by the Threatened Species Conservation Regulation 2010:

Clause 18 Restricted geographic distribution of the ecological community The ecological community’s geographic distribution is estimated or inferred to be: (a) very highly restricted,and the nature of its distribution makes it likely that the action of a threatening process could cause it to decline ordegrade in extent or ecological function over a time span appropriate to the life cycle and habitat characteristics of the ecological community’s component species.

Clause 19 Reduction in ecological function of the ecological community The ecological community has undergone, is observed, estimated, inferred or reasonably suspected to have undergone or is likely to undergo within a time span appropriate to the life cycle and habitat characteristics of its component species: (a) a very large reduction in ecological function,as indicated by any of the following:(d) change in community structure, (e) change in species composition,

Part 4. Additional information about the ecological community

The following information is additional to that required to meet the definition of an ecological community under the Act, but is provided to assist in the recognition of Elderslie Banksia Scrub Forest in the field. Given natural variability, along with disturbance history, Elderslie Banksia Scrub Forest may sometimes occur outside the typical range of variation in the features described below.

4.1 Elderslie Banksia Scrub Forest is described under the same name in Benson (1977), Benson and Howell (1994), UBBS (1997), Urban Bushland Management Consultants (1998), Clements et al. (2002) and Tozer et al. (2010).

4.2 Elderslie Banksia Scrub Forest is generally associated with alluvium of Tertiary age, on soils which are sandy, with drainage varying from good to poor (Benson 1977). The alluvium occurs on sites that are elevated relative to current river bed, leading to its description as ‘high level alluvium’ (Benson 1977). Elderslie Banksia Scrub Forest intergrades locally with the endangered ecological communities Cumberland Plain Woodland in the Sydney Basin Bioregion and River-Flat Eucalypt Forest on Coastal Floodplains of the New South Wales North Coast, Sydney Basin and South East Corner Bioregions.

4.3 The structure of Elderslie Banksia Scrub Forest is generally open-scrub or woodland, or it may occur as remnant trees. Species composition at any site depends on local topography and drainage conditions. In drier areas, Banksia integrifolia occurs as the characteristic canopy species, together with Angophora subvelutina and Duboisia myoporoides; other species include Brachyloma daphnoides, Clerodendrum tomentosum, Pteridium esculentum, Pimelea linifolia, Dillwynia glabberima, Ricinocarpos pinifolius, Hibbertia diffusa, Kunzea ambigua, Exocarpos cupressiformis, Persoonia linearis and Dianella revoluta. In lower-lying areas with poorer drainage, the canopy changes to Eucalyptus botryoides with other species including Platysace lanceolata, Aotus eroicoides, Pteridium esculentum and Imperata cylindrica. Melaleuca decora, Gahnia clarkei and Gleichenia dicarpa occur along watercourses (Benson and Howell 1994; reported in Clements et al. 2002).

4.4 Elderslie Banksia Scrub Forest has been recorded in the Camden local government area (within the Sydney Basin Bioregion), principally near Elderslie in the area known as Spring Farm. However unrecorded stands of the ecological community may occur elsewhere in the Bioregion.

4.5The following threatened fauna have been reported in or adjacent to Elderslie Banksia Scrub Forest (Conacher Travers 2002a, b):

Scientific Name Common Name Status Chalinolobus dwyeri Large-eared Pied Bat Vulnerable (EPBC)Meridolum corneovirens Cumberland Land Snail EndangeredMiniopterus schreibersii oceanensis Eastern Bentwing Bat VulnerableMormopterus norfolkensis Eastern Free-tail Bat VulnerablePteropus poliocephalus Grey-headed Flying Fox Vulnerable (EPBC)Scoteanax rueppellii Greater Broad-nosed Bat Vulnerable
