Strategic importance
There is only one known population of Glycine latrobeana in a small area in NSW with approximately 500-1000 plants. The species is critically endangered in NSW and is listed as threatened in other Australian states where it occurs. The species typically inhabits lowland areas, but in NSW it inhabits sub-alpine grasslands at higher elevation. As the population occurs in unique habitat and is most likely isolated from other states, it is possible the population is genetically distinct. Historical records of the species outside Kosciusko National Park have not been resighted in targeted surveys, so are likely incorrect identifications. The species is rare and difficult to identify as it does not flower often and loses its leaves in summer; however, identifying additional populations during suitable conditions would help secure the species in NSW.
