Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999 (EPBC Act) DRAFT Conservation Advice for Eucalypt Woodlands of the Western Australian Wheatbelt APPENDIX A – SPECIES LISTS Table A1. Key native plant species of the WA Wheatbelt Woodlands ecological community. Given the WA wheatbelt is a region of high natural biodiversity, this plant species list does not include all plant species that may be encountered in the WA Wheatbelt woodland ecological community. Source: Compiled from the community and sub-community descriptions in Harvey and Keighery (2012). Communities and sub-communities not dominated by the key eucalypt species or that are limited to a particular area outside the WA wheatbelt are not included.
