PLNB Workshop - June Existing Research Program

PLNB Workshop - June Existing Research Program OBJECTIVE This document has several objectives: To document and guide the implementation of priority future actions for the conservation and management of the Pilbara leaf-nosed bat (PLNB) in the Pilbara Region of Western Australia. To justify funding allocations for the priority actions. To guide future controlling provisions and potential research offset decisions in Western Australia. Project 1 – PLNB distribution and status assessment Project 2 – Locate, characterise and protect PLNB roost sites Project 3 – Use of foraging habitats by PLNB Project 4 – Taxonomy and genetic structure of PLNB Project 5 – Monitoring of PLNB populations

PLNB Workshop - June Characterising natural roost sites Characterising artificial roosts No & distribution of day roosts Characterising foraging habitat Collate existing data – knowledge 1 Connectivity Understanding adequate buffers Social behaviour - demographics
