DES 2023, Habitat Suitability Models Queensland. Version 1.2 Updated June 2023. Queensland Herbarium and Biodiversity Science, Queensland Department of Environment and Science, Brisbane.
Laidlaw, M.J. and Butler, D.W. (2021) Potential habitat modelling methodology for Queensland. Version 2.0 Updated November 2021. Queensland Herbarium, Queensland Department of Environment and Science (former), Brisbane.
Version 2.0 – 08/05/2014: Version 2.0 was the initial release. The record database used to develop the Flora Survey Trigger Map for Clearing Protected Plants in Queensland - Version 2.0 (released 08/05/2014) was derived from a list of plant species classified as EVNT under the Nature Conservation (Wildlife Management) Regulation 2006. Records were extracted and processed from corporate databases: WildNet (including Herbrecs – 21/04/2014); Corveg (01/04/2014). Additional records were provided by: Biodiversity Planning Assessment and Aquatic Conservation Assessment workshops; flfa_v4_1 (a previous statewide database developed in 2005); Local governments (Ipswich City Council – 05/2013, Gold Coast City Council – 11/11/2013, and Logan City Council - 2013). Point records were buffered by 2km radius for the final product.
Version 3.0 – Jan 2015, DRAFT NOT released.
Version 4.0 – 28/08/2015: This dataset of High risk areas is derived from the list of plant species classified as EVNT under the Nature Conservation (Wildlife Management) Regulation 2006 and information about where these EVNT plants are known to be present. Records were extracted and processed from corporate databases: WildNet (including Herbrecs – 14/08/2015); Corveg (02/07/2015). Additional records provided by: Biodiversity Planning Assessment and Aquatic Conservation Assessment workshops; flfa_v4_1 (a previous statewide database developed in 2005); Local governments (Ipswich City Council – 05/2013, Gold Coast City Council – 11/11/2013, and Logan City Council - 2013); Melaleuca irbyana records obtained from Tim Ryan (QLD Herbarium) on 13/02/2015. Point records were buffered by 2km radius for the final product.
Version 4.0 incorporates changes to the conservation class of 84 flora species that were made on 28 August 2015 and of 81 flora species that were made on 12 December 2014.
Version 4.1 – 30/09/2016: This dataset of High risk areas is derived from the list of plant species classified as EVNT under the Nature Conservation (Wildlife Management) Regulation 2006 and information about where EVNT plants are known to be present. Version 4.1 reflected a point release version. The existing version 4.0 records dataset released in August 2015 was refined by the deletion of 161 Herbrecs records that were no longer considered valid records:
• 66 records were no longer in the Herbrecs database;
• 94 records were determined to have either an invalid or pre 1950 collection year; • 1 record was determined to have a precision greater than 2000m;
Other changes (not deletions) are as follows:
• 98 records had precision updated to 100m. This makes no difference to the trigger map for these records.
• 37 valid records had a correction to collection year. This makes no difference to the trigger map for these records.
Point records were buffered by 2km radius for the final product.
Version 5.0 – 11/05/2017: This dataset of High risk areas is derived from the list of plant species classified as EVNT under the Nature Conservation (Wildlife Management) Regulation 2006 and information about where EVNT plants are known to be present. Records were extracted and processed from corporate databases: Herbrecs (03/11/2016); Corveg (09/2016); WildNet (04/11/2016). Additional records were provided by: Biodiversity Planning Assessment and Aquatic Conservation Assessment workshops; flfa_v4_1 (a previous statewide database developed in 2005); Local governments (Ipswich City Council – 05/2013, Gold Coast City Council – 11/11/2013, and Logan City Council - 2013); Melaleuca irbyana records obtained from Tim Ryan (QLD Herbarium) on 13/02/2015. Point records were buffered by 2km radius for the final product.
Version 5.0 incorporates changes to the conservation class of 14 flora species that were made on 12 May 2017. Version 6.0 – 06/04/2018: This dataset of High risk areas is derived from the list of plant species classified as EVNT under the Nature Conservation (Wildlife Management) Regulation 2006 and information about where EVNT plants are known to be present. Version 6.0 was derived from an updated extract of species records obtained from the corporate databases: Herbrecs (09/05/2018); Corveg (06/03/2018); WildNet (10/05/2018). Additional records were provided by: Australia Tropical Herbarium (02/05/2018); Biodiversity Planning Assessment and Aquatic Conservation Assessment workshops; flfa_v4_1 (a previous statewide database developed in 2005); Local governments (Ipswich City Council – 05/2013, Gold Coast City Council – 11/11/2013, and Logan City Council - 2013); Melaleuca irbyana records obtained from Tim Ryan (QLD Herbarium) on 13/02/2015. Point records were buffered by 2km radius for the final product.
Version 7.0 – 31/05/2019: This dataset of High risk areas is derived from the list of plant species classified as EVNT under the Nature Conservation (Wildlife Management) Regulation 2006 and information about where EVNT plants are known to be present. Records were extracted and processed from corporate databases: Herbrecs (Vulnerable and Near Threatened species, 31/10/2018 and Endangered species, 29/01/2019 [provided by Qld Herbarium 08/04 2019]); Corveg (07/11/2018); WildNet (07/11/2018). Additional records were provided by: Australia Tropical Herbarium (02/05/2018); Biodiversity Planning Assessment and Aquatic Conservation Assessment workshops; Local governments (Ipswich City Council – 05/2013, Gold Coast City Council – 11/11/2013, and Logan City Council - 2013); Melaleuca irbyana records obtained from Tim Ryan (QLD Herbarium) on 13/02/2015. Point records were buffered by 2km radius for the final product.
Version 7.0 also incorporated areas where EVNT plants are likely to be present based upon the modelled presence of highly suitable habitat for 73 Endangered species. All High risk areas were excluded from national and conservation parks and restricted to semi-natural/natural areas within selected land use zones considered to be highly modified.
Version 7.1 – 26/06/2019: This dataset of High risk areas is derived from the list of plant species classified as EVNT under the Nature Conservation (Wildlife Management) Regulation 2006 and information about where EVNT plants are known or likely to be present. The same base data inputs and processes were reapplied from version 7.0 for the purpose of version 7.1, with the following exceptions:
• One expert defined habitat suitability model depicting “Core areas” for the species Melaleuca irbyana (E) (currently also used for defining Essential habitat for these species under the Vegetation Management Act 1999) was incorporated; and
• All High risk areas were restricted to semi-natural/natural areas irrespective of land use category.
Version 8.0 – 08/09/2021: This dataset of High risk areas is derived from the list of plant species classified as CEVNT under the Nature Conservation (Plants) Regulation 2020 and information about where CEVNT plants are known or likely to be present. Records were extracted and processed from corporate databases: Herbrecs (12/03/2021); Corveg (16/12/2020); WildNet (03/02/2021). Additional records were provided by: Australia Tropical Herbarium (02/12/2020); experts from Biodiversity Planning Assessment and Aquatic Conservation Assessment workshops; Local governments (Ipswich City Council – 2011 and 30/03/2021, Gold Coast City Council – 30/03/2021, and Logan City Council - 25/03/2021); Melaleuca irbyana records obtained from Tim Ryan (QLD Herbarium) on 13/02/2015. Point records were buffered by 2km radius for the final product.
Version 8.0 also incorporated areas where CEVNT plants are likely to be present based upon the modelled presence of highly suitable habitat for 71 Endangered species. All High risk areas were excluded from national parks and restricted to semi-natural/natural areas.
Differences in processes/base inputs between version 7.1 and version 8.0, included:
• The extraction query used to generate the natural areas base input, ‘natural and slightly modified wetlands’ was amended to appropriately reflect changes made to hydrological modifiers in the Queensland Wetland Mapping V5 dataset. • Models for Eucalyptus argophloia, Rhodamnia rubescens and Rhodomyrtus psidioides (reclassified to Critically Endangered/Endangered under the NCA since release of version 7.1), and an additional species model for Aristida granitica was available for use in Version 8.0 and incorporated into the combined modelled species base input.
• Six wetland dependent modelled species were excluded from the combined modelled species base input: Astonia australiensis, Chloris sp., Eriocaulon carsonii subsp. orientale, Eryngium fontanum, Sporobolus pamelae and Lobelia fenshamii.

This dataset of High Risk areas is derived from the list of plant species classified as CEVNT under the Nature Conservation (Plants) Regulation 2020 and information about where CEVNT plants are known or likely to be present. Records were extracted and processed from corporate databases: Herbrecs (08/01/2024); Corveg (08/01/2024); WildNet (31/01/2024). Additional records were provided by: Australian Tropical Herbarium (15/01/2024); Experts from Biodiversity Planning Assessment and Aquatic Conservation Assessment workshops; Local governments (Ipswich City Council – 2011 and 30/03/2021, Gold Coast City Council – 30/03/2021, and Logan City Council - 25/03/2021); Jaeger Moran database (05/23); Melaleuca irbyana records obtained from Tim Ryan (QLD Herbarium) on 13/02/2015; Red Leaf consultancy (Darren Fielder) – extract supplied June 2023. Point records were buffered by 2km radius for the final product. Version 11.0 also incorporated areas where Critically Endangered and Endangered plants are likely to be present based upon the modelled presence of highly suitable habitat for 73 species. All High Risk areas were excluded from National and Conservation Parks, as well as approved exemption allotments (subject to a 10 year exclusion) and then restricted to semi-natural/natural areas. Version 11.0 incorporates changes and updates to the NCA species conservation status that occurred in June and December 2023. The changes in NCA status and processing of new records have resulted in a net increase of 16 species incorporated in Version 11.0 in comparison to version 10.0.
This dataset is derived from the list of plant species classified as CEVNT under the Nature Conservation (Plants) Regulation 2020, information about areas where CEVNT plants are present, and information about areas where CEVNT plants are likely to be present. National Park, National Park (Scientific), National Park (Cape York Peninsula Aboriginal Land), and Conservation Park were excluded from High Risk areas. High Risk areas have been restricted to natural/semi-natural areas.
Areas where CEVNT plants are present: are areas where there are CEVNT plant records of high validity and precision, and the areas immediately surrounding such records. Flora records are compiled from: • Specimen backed collections (QLD Herbarium, Aust. Tropical Herbarium, and some Corveg)
• Observer sightings (Corveg, WildNet, Local government extracts, expert panel sources).
Flora records were extracted and/or obtained from the following corporate database sources:
• Herbrecs on 08/01/2024
• WildNet on 31/01/2024
• Corveg database on 08/01/2024
• Australian Tropical Herbarium on 15/01/2024.
Additional records were compiled from various sources including:
• BPA expert panels:
o Channel Country Biodiversity Planning Assessment (CHC BPA) expert panel input – 2009
o Einasleigh Uplands BPA expert panel input – 2002
o Southeast Queensland BPA expert panel Maryborough workshop – 2001, SEQ BPA Expert panel 2007, SEQ BPA Noosa shire expert panel input 2007
• Local Governments including:
o Ipswich City Council dataset (flora and fauna) – 2011 and 30/03/2021
o Logan City Council (Gossia gonoclada only) - 25/03/2021
o Gold Coast City Council (flora and fauna - 30/03/2021)
• Tim Ryan QLD Herbarium – extract 13/02/2015 from Tim’s records utilised in compiling a habitat model for Melaleuca irbyana for the Federal Environment Department
• Jaeger Moran database – is a database of record sightings compiled by Botanists Ann Moran. Extract May 2023
• Red Leaf consultancy (Darren Fielder) – extract supplied June 2023.
Taxonomic nomenclature and status were updated based upon the WildNet taxonomy table (extracted 29/01/2024). All records were filtered according to the following rules:
• NCA status of CE, E, V, NT
• Precision of <=2000m
• Year >= 1950
• Excluded cultivated records except those where the specimen is from a cultivated plant, where the original material was collected at this site
• Duplicate records were removed. Duplicates are defined as the same species with the same coordinates (to 4 decimal places) and the same precision. In such cases, the most recent record was retained.
Areas where CEVNT plants are likely to be present: are areas that have highly suitable habitat for at least one CEVNT species. Areas of highly suitable habitat were determined for 73 Critically Endangered/Endangered species using:
• MAXENT species distribution modelling software, records of high validity and precision (minimum 10 species records) and a high logistic threshold (75% probability) (Modelled potential habitat for selected threatened species – Queensland, v2 extracted from QSpatial in 2023 (Laidlaw, M.J. and Butler, D.W. 2021)), or
• Core habitat areas for Melaleuca irbyana identified through expert defined habitat suitability models (Biodiversity Assessment Team, Qld Herbarium, DESI, 2023).
National Park, National Park Scientific, National Park CYPAL and Conservation Park: were extracted from “Protected Areas of Queensland” (QSpatial) on 01/06/2024 (DESI).
Highly vegetated/natural/semi-natural areas: are areas mapped as remnant vegetation (Remnant and preclearing regional ecosystem mapping, version 13.1, 2024, Queensland Herbarium and Biodiversity Science), regrowth vegetation (High value regrowth, version 13.1, 2024, Queensland Herbarium and Biodiversity Science), wetlands (Queensland Wetland Data Version 6 – Wetland Areas 2019, Queensland Herbarium and Biodiversity Science) and Category A areas under the Vegetation Management Act 1992 (Regulated Vegetation Management Map - version 7.04, Queensland Department of Resources).
