Fitzgerald River National Park on the south coast of WA is one of the most diverse botanical regions in the world, reflected in its designation as a World Biosphere Reserve. Around 2000 species and subspecies of native flowering plants are found in the park, representing nearly 20 per cent of the total number of plant species in W A. Included in this are over 62 endemic plant species with a further 48 plant species more Of less confined to the park. This diverse flora supports a number of threatened animals including the critically endangered western ground parrot and the endangered dibbler.
