Flinders Ranges Survey

A standard South Australian biological survey conducted throughout the entire Flinders Ranges and adjacent plains, excluding the Olary Spur, to determine vascular plant species present at each 1km x 1km site being sampled for vertebrates. This survery also determines the vertebrate species present in the variety of common habitats and structural vegetation communities characteristic of the Flinders Ranges region. The Flinders Ranges 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.
