Abstract |
Cataract National Park and State Conservation Area vegetation mapping was undertaken by Dr John T. Hunter in 2006 by contract for the NPWS Northern Tableland Region. Cataract NP and SCA are located approximately 20km north of Drake near Tenterfield and comprise around 4,000 ha of lands. The north eastern boundary of the study area is bordered by the Clarence River. The lands are mainly mountainous with many incised creeks and escarpment areas. The lands lie in the North Coast Botanical District. The vegetation of Cataract National Park and State Conservation Area is described and mapped (scale 1:25 000). Seven communities are defined based on classification (Kulczynski association). These seven communities were mapped based on ground truthing, air photo interpretation and landform. Much of the reserve is dominated by grassy forests and woodlands usually with Allocasuarina torulosa (Forest Oak), Eucalytpus biturbinata (Grey Gum) and Eucalytpus crebra (Ironbark) with an understorey of Cymbopogon refractus (Barbed-wire Grass), Imperata cylindrical (Blady Grass) and Poa sieberiana (Tussock Grass). Much of the reserve has been disturbed in the past, particularly by clearing, logging and grazing. No listed threatened communities or flora species were noted. A total of 437 vascular plant taxa were found from 108 families and 285 genera. VIS_ID 4722 |

Lineage |
Dr John T. Hunter prepared the report of the vegetation of the Cataract National Park and State Conservation Area. Aims included the collation of existing information from previous floristic surveys and the placement of stratified full vascular plant floristic sites be carried out in order to complete a comprehensive investigation of the vegetation and flora of Cataract NP and SCA and its new additions. The report represents the findings of this study. The collated information is to be used as a guide for management purposes. The requirements of the investigation were: 1. Collate existing information from previous vegetation surveys conducted within the conservation area. 2. Site placement to be based on selected environmental variables and be distributed based on the area they occupy. 3. Identify weed species and their occurrence. 4. Identify RoTAP, EPB&C Act and TSC Act species and their occurrence. 5. Identify regionally significant species. 6. Provide known fire ecology information on species and communities. 7. Construction of a vegetation map based on communities as defined by classification and ordination analyses. 8. Provide management recommendations. |
