Banrock Station Invertebrate Survey: Water-related invertebrates and their association with environmental flooding.

Abstract
In late 2017, D’Estrees Entomology began an invertebrate biosurvey of Banrock Station, including the Ramsarlisted
wetlands on the property. The broad aim of the first year of surveying is to provide an initial assessment of
the invertebrate fauna occurring in various habitat types. An important element of this was to sample aquatic and
semi-aquatic species from a range of aquatic habitats, including:
• river/creek (moving water) and associated banks
• wetland (low energy, long term water) with aquatic vegetation
• floodplain with flooding and drying cycles
In this report we provide an initial list of aquatic and semi-aquatic taxa sampled and discuss various taxa of
interest. Further, we discuss some aspects of trapping as well as the effects of Banrock Station’s environmental
watering (E-watering) at Wigley Reach...
