Distributional data for target and off-target species of small mammals collected as part of the Rare Rodent Project. The Rare Rodent project involves the ongoing monitoring of two species of threatened rodent, the Plains Rat (Pseudomys australis) and the Dusky Hopping Mouse (Notomys fuscus). The project aims to look at distribution, status and ecology of the species (in Outback South Australia). Currently there are two monitoring sites for each species, which are visited twice a year. The project began in 1992 and hopes to continue in the long term subject to funding. An additional species, the Kultarr (Antechinomys laniger), is now being targeted as part of the project due to its unknown status. The Rare Rodents Project 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.
