Hopkins Creek (Nature Conservation Society) Survey, Biological Survey of South Australia - Vegetation Survey, Biological Database of South Australia

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.

霍普金斯溪（Hopkins Creek）区域动植物调查于2003年11月至12月间开展。该区域近期由环境与遗产部（Department of Environment & Heritage）收购，尽管其拥有大片亟待记录的原生栖息地，但此前从未开展过相关调查。周边地块分别受到放牧与旅游活动的严重干扰。通过选定最适宜且可持续的徒步步道选址，可避免干扰敏感的繁殖、觅食及植物再生栖息地，同时让公众在不造成负面影响的前提下游览该区域。本次野外调查在7处生境各异的样地中开展，邀请专家团队提供核心专业支持，分别负责鸟类、鱼类、哺乳类、两栖爬行动物学（Herpetology）及植物类群的调查工作。参考文献：Rouse, K.J.（2004）《南澳大利亚州霍普金斯溪生物多样性：动植物生物学调查》，南澳自然保护协会有限公司（Nature Conservation Society of SA Inc.）。霍普金斯溪（南澳自然保护协会）调查是南澳大利亚州生物调查计划（Biological Survey of South Australia Program）的组成部分，该计划自1971年起至今在全州范围内开展一系列系统性调查，其总体目标是建立南澳大利亚州动植物生物多样性的基础名录。请通过以下网址获取本数据集：http://aekos.org.au/collection/sa.gov.au/bdbsa_veg/survey_168
