New South Wales

Notice of Final Determination and

Amendment of Schedules 1 and 2 to

Act

under the

Threatened Species Act 1995 No 101

The Scientific Committee established under the Threatened Species Conservation Act 1995 has, in pursuance of Division 3 of Part 2 of that Act, made a final determination as follows:

(a) to insert the following species of plant as an endangered species in Part 1 of Schedule 1 to that Act:

Plants

Orchidaceae

Caladenia tessellata Fitzg.

(b) as a consequence, to omit reference to that species of plant as a vulnerable species in Schedule 2,

and, accordingly, those Schedules are amended as set out in Annexure “A” to
this Notice.

The final determination to insert this species in Part 1 of Schedule 1 has been made because the Scientific Committee is of the opinion that the species is likely to become extinct in nature in New South Wales unless the circumstances and factors threatening its survival or evolutionary development cease to operate.
