Brief description
Subterranean fauna sampling program records to date confirm that the habitats under both the proposed gas processing facility and the adjacent parts of the island support stygofauna and troglofauna. However, these assemblages may not be as diverse as those recorded from caves and more developed karstic areas in other parts of Barrow Island. Baseline surveys for subterranean fauna will continue on Barrow Island until construction of the proposed Development commences. The results of subsequent sampling, concluded prior to construction, will be published separately. This will provide a species level analysis of subterranean fauna distribution, along with a more complete analysis of the physical nature of the subterranean environment.Lineage
