The habitats of this area are similar to desert habitats. The
soils are shallow, low in nutrients, sandy, welldrained and exposed
to wind and extreme heat. The plants and animals of the area have
adapted to these arid conditions, but are geographically isolated
from similar habitats. That is why there are many rare and endemic
species at Jarrangbarnmi . Rare species are those which are uncommon
or which have a very limited distribution. Endemic species are
not found elsewhere.
