• *As listed under the <strong>NSW</strong> Threatened Species Conservation Act 1995 known to occur in<br />

<strong>Gosford</strong> <strong>City</strong> at February 2006.<br />

• # Bell (2004) recommended adding additional vegetation communities, all except<br />

Coastal Sand Scrub are now considered to be likely to be included in listed communities.<br />

• Note that Bell mapping is modelled and should not be used in isolation to determine whether a vegetation<br />

community would qualify or not. Detailed site surveys are required for development assessment to determine<br />

vegetation community composition and whether it would qualify or not as an endangered ecological<br />

community.<br />

Source: Based on Bell (2004).<br />

Note: This table contains communities identified as vulnerable and specialised in LHCCREMS 2003,<br />

and as having limited extent and being poorly represented from Bell 2004. It also includes<br />

communities described by Bell 2004 as being Priority 1, 2, 3 or 4 for conservation. Some<br />

communities that would qualify are already considered in the higher category of Endangered<br />

Ecological Communities and are not listed in this table.<br />
