Winner of the 2006 Whitley Award for Best Conservation Resource This completely updated edition gives the latest listings on conservation status for all known Australian amphibians, reptiles, birds and mammals. It indicates each species’ status on a state-by-state basis and also gives details for subspecies. Additionally, it provides a ‘one-stop-shop’ listing of the correct species names for all Australian vertebrates. It will be an indispensable reference tool and guide for all persons working with and publishing on Australia’s vertebrate fauna, particularly those dealing in legal matters and environmental inventory and management programs. Amendments: Since publication, some information has been updated or corrected in the CSIRO List of Australian Vertebrates. A list of the amendments and revised pages are available as a pdf download in the Features tab.
