Yellow-bellied Sheathtail-bat – profile Saccolaimus flaviventris (Yellow-bellied Sheathtail Bat). It is listed as Vulnerable under the BC Act. Saccolaimus flaviventris (Yellow-bellied Sheathtail Bat) is a wide-ranging insectivorous mammal that forages above forest and grassland canopies in northern and eastern Australia and is suspected of being migratory. Petaurus-australis (Yellow bellied Glider). canobolensis undoubtedly offers a valuable roosting habitat together with a food source from copious manna secretions. With a preference for tall mature eucalypt forest generally in areas with high rainfall and nutrient rich soils, the SCA provides an ideal habitat. Petaurus australis (Yellow-bellied Glider) is an arboreal glider found along the east coast to the western slopes of the GDR. It is listed as Vulnerable under the EPBC Act. It is a common glider in the SCA owing to an abundance of tree hollows and food provided by the diverse suite of eucalypts. This Glider favours forests with a diversity of eucalypt species, providing food sources across seasons. Petauroides volans (Greater Glider) ranges throughout eastern Australia, occurring from north Queensland through to central Victoria, from sea level to 1200 m altitude.

Eucalyptus canobolensis the species provides valuable nesting and roosting habitat as well as copious manna exudate as a food source for arboreal mammals and birds. Vulnerable under the BC Act and Endangered under the EPBC Act. With a propensity to form hollows, the species provides valuable nesting and roosting habitat as well as copious manna exudate as a food source for arboreal mammals and birds. Its stronghold is above 1,000 m altitude in the SCA but occurs sporadically down to ± 900 m altitude on the slopes surrounding the mountain. The tree Eucalyptus canobolensis (Silver-leaf Candlebark or Canobolas Candlebark) occurs throughout the SCA and is endemic to the Mt Canobolas precinct.

The endemic shrub Prostanthera gilesii (Giles’ Mintbush) is only known from two small colonies and has been listed as Critically Endangered under the BC Act. Threatened Plants The endemic shrub Prostanthera gilesii (Giles’ Mintbush) is only known from two small colonies and has been listed as Critically Endangered under the BC Act The SCA provides a valuable refuge for existence, feeding, breeding and surviving from habitat losses. Sixteen threatened species occur within the SCA including two locally endemic plant species, six mammals and eight birds.
