Augustus Island, W.A.

Augustus Island is an island off the Kimberley coast of Western Australia. The island has a total area of 190 square kilometres and has an irregular shape. It is at the Southern end of the Bonaparte Archipelago. The island is found approximately 120 kilometres (75 mi) north-east of Bardi. The island is uninhabited and contains no known feral animals.

Many flora and fauna were isolated from the mainland when sea levels rose and many populations are found intact on the island. The island provides ideal habitat for the Nabarlek, also known as the Little Rock-Wallaby, with the weathered sandstone forming deep fissures. The Golden Bandicoot is another vulnerable species that is resident on the island, the last recorded sighting being in 2003. This species favours the Warton sandstone and the heathland on dissected sandstone
