Maximising Water Delivery for Regent Parrot Outcomes -
Water for the Environment Program

The Eastern Regent Parrot Polytelis anthopeplus monarchoides is currently listed as Vulnerable under the Australian Government Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999 (EPBC Act). It is restricted to a single population occurring in inland south-eastern Australia in the Lower Murray-Darling Basin region of South Australia, New South Wales and Victoria. Riverine and floodplain habitats are known to be critical in supporting the breeding and foraging requirements of regent parrots.
