Bennelongia Expertise
Bennelongia staff have many years of policy and research experience in subterranean fauna, wetland ecology and invertebrate conservation gained while employed in the Department of Parks and Wildlife prior to setting up Bennelongia in 2007. Since then, they have undertaken more than 250 environmental impact assessments of subterranean fauna, short range endemic inverterbrates (SREs), waterbirds, shorebirds and wetlands and aim to continue undertaking high quality studies and assessments of fauna and wetlands.
Staff continue to publish widely in the scientific literature, describing new species, providing new methods of sampling fauna, and documenting the ecology of fauna to improve the context for impact assessments.
