The survey area was surveyed in two blocks. The western area was surveyed from 25th August to 5th September 2008 and the eastern area was surveyed from 12th to 25th October 2008. The western area extends from south of Yalata Road house covering the Russell 1:50 000 mapsheet (eastern half of Wahgunyah Conservation Park through to Koonibba and Charra Map sheets (approx 15km east of Ceduna). The survey extends from the coast line to approximately 20 km north of the Eyre Highway and partly adjoins the southern boundaries of Yellabinna and Yumbarra Conservation Parks. The eastern area is contiguous with the western area and extends south east through to the western limits of the Gawler Ranges (Ilkina and Toondulya mapsheets). The northern extent incudes Pureeba and part of Yumbarra Conservation Parks and the southern boundary is approximately 20km south of Smoky Bay and 30km north of Poochera. Coastal sites were largely avoided as the coastline has been previously surveyed. The main aim of this survey was to collect data on the vegetation communities of the Far Western Eyre Peninsula region to enable the classification & mapping on the floristic composition and structure of the vegetation groups of the area. Vegetation was documented with a complete list of plant species within a 50 x 50m quadrat using Braun-Blanquet cover abundance scores. Vertebrate presence was also noted. The Far West Eyre Peninsula Survey is part of the Biological Survey of South Australia Program which is a series of systematic surveys conducted across the state between 1971 and the present with the broad aim of providing a baseline inventory of South Australia's flora and fauna biodiversity.
