Abstract
Introduces the current programme of nature conservation in New South Wales and its historical perspective, and outlines the work of the Scientific Committee of Parks and Reserves and the International Biological Programme survey. There is discussion on the basis for reserve programmes and the choices for a reserve system. Plant associations are listed, and the evaluation of these by the International Union for the Conservation of Nature and Natural Resources is noted. The IUCN also considers the selection of reserves on the basis of species presence. There is a need to encourage debate on the objectives of conservation reserves. -S.J.Yates
