Thanks to Tim Farrell, Brett Mawbey, David Blühdorn, Robert Cox and Cassandra Dodds for their help with the production of this plan. The members of the recovery team are acknowledged for their continued support, input and encouragement. We would like to thank Jamie Pook, David Rounsevell and Rob Taylor for their contributions to the threatened galaxiids program. The Endangered Species Program of Environment Australia provided funding for the Pedder galaxias recovery plan (ESP 36 and ESP 333), the Swan galaxias recovery plan (ESP 426) and the writing of a recovery plan for the Clarence, swamp and saddled galaxias (ESP 508).
