One strategy overcome local gaps initiate short but intensive efforts collect and as many species possible from a small region – ‘blitz’.

Coolah Tops, c. 360 km northwest of Sydney, at the western end Liverpool Range, in central New South Wales, is a fertile basalt plateau that rises to over 1000 m, and so cooler wetter than surrounding drier hotter slopes. It represents outlier tall moist montane forest may therefore have served as mesic refuge during arid climatic cycles. Despite its high biodiversity biogeographical interest, Tops National Park area was very poorly represented natural history museum collections. This report...
