Fauna Species List
The Reserve forms part of a vital wildlife corridor along Ferny Creek which flows through the Dandenong Ranges foothills. It supports up to 80 recorded bird species. The creekside eucalypts along Ferny Creek provide food and vital habitat to many resident and visiting birds such as the Gang- gang cockatoos.

Vegetation Classes
Two ecological vegetation classes (EVCs) exist in the reserve:
- Valley Grassy Forest
- Riparian Forest
The first three of these areas contain vegetation that largely represents what would have been found before 1750.
The Reserve supports at least seven fauna habitat types including Ferny Creek, Riparian Forest, Grassy Woodland, ephemeral wetland. This diversity of habitats plays an important role in providing habitat for numerous native fauna species.
