Bennelongia Environmental Consultants is a distinguished environmental consulting firm located in Perth, Western Australia. Our team is composed of seasoned professionals with extensive experience in various fields such as fieldwork, invertebrate identification, taxonomy, DNA techniques, scientific research, and environmental assessment. We are proud to have contributed to significant projects, including the Pilbara Biodiversity Survey for the Western Australian Government, where we developed new sampling protocols and techniques for stygofauna and troglofauna collection.

Our laboratory is equipped with state-of-the-art microscopes and photographic systems, which we utilize for invertebrate identification and research. We also maintain strong relationships with local and international invertebrate taxonomists to ensure accurate identification and analysis of specimens. Our team has been involved in all major subterranean fauna, wetland, and waterbird surveys undertaken in Western Australia.

At Bennelongia Environmental Consultants, we are dedicated to best practices in environmental management and prioritize safety in all our projects. We offer a range of services, which include:

• Subterranean Fauna Surveys: Our team specializes in the study of subterranean fauna, including stygofauna and troglofauna. We have developed new sampling techniques and are equipped with the latest technology to provide comprehensive surveys for our clients.

• Short Range Endemic (SRE) Invertebrate Surveys: We offer improved results for SRE invertebrate surveys by utilizing our extensive experience and expertise.

• Wetland Surveys: We provide detailed assessments of wetland ecology, including surveys and broader assessments of wetland and river health.

• Waterbird Surveys: Our team is skilled in conducting waterbird and shorebird monitoring to provide valuable information for environmental management and conservation efforts.

Our company name, Bennelongia, is derived from the ostracod genus Bennelongia. The genus was named after Woollarawarre Bennelong, the first Indigenous Australian to have a long association with the early European settlers in Australia. We are proud to uphold the legacy of Bennelongia, an endemic genus to Australia and New Zealand, by continuing our work in environmental consulting and research.
