Summary of species occurrence data from 1900 to the present for Australian terrestrial species organised by IBRA region and CAPAD protection status. Counts are provided by species and IBRA region for:

The number of records showing evidence of the species’ presence inside the region The number of records showing evidence of the species’ presence within CAPAD 2020 protected areas inside the region The number of records showing evidence of the species’ presence within the protected areas under indigenous management within the region

The first count includes all records in the second count and the second count includes all records in the third count. The counts in this dataset allow for some simple comparisons between the numbers of species recorded inside and outside protected areas in each region and comparison of the species in each region. Inclusion of EPBC statuses allows comparisons based on conservation status. Note however that such counts may not accurately reflect real differences in biodiversity. It is important to consider confounding factors (particularly variations in recording effort over time).
Occurrence records were aggregated and organised by the Atlas of Living Australia (ALA, https://ala.org.au/) and include survey and monitoring data collected and managed by the Integrated Marine Observing System (IMOS, https://imos.org.au/) and the Terrestrial Ecosystem Research Network (TERN, https://tern.org.au/).
