Shouldn't this be a non local native the only Acacia in the ACT with spikes is A.doratoxylon and that is normally found on river corridors

That is true for the ACT. However, CNM still has a number of coastal records on the database. It is local there.

There are several different leaf varieties of Acacia longifolia subsp. longifolia on Isaacs Ridge.

Given our boundary change and definition, Acacia longifolia is no longer local to this area, so will change status as Julie suggests. I think our coastal records are being transferred to the atlas of coastal wilderness.

Do you know if all the records are being done- because while I mentioned the transfer at the get together, I note only 6 (of the more recent, perhaps during the testing phase of ALCW) have been transferred, and the remainder remain on CNM

Only about 500 odd of my sightings transferred to ALCW, the area of which is basically Bega Shire. Records north of that stayed on CNM. My sightings go as far north as Bomaderry, across the river and north of Nowra.

The records I was referring to are in Monga NP and Depot Beach, so checking on ALCW, it might just be out although I suspect in the boundaries (the map is too small to tell with any certainity)

A site visit on 23 Sep 2017 confirmed Acacia floribunda. Many specimens, big and small, of this species present over a wide area.
