Abstract: All the species shown in this booklet are protected under the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999 (EPBC). It is an offence to intentionally kill, injure, trade, keep, or move any protected species in a Commonwealth area without a permit. The Commonwealth area includes marine areas beyond the coastal waters of each State and the Northern Territory and includes all of Australia's Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ). The EEZ generally extends to 200 nautical miles (approximately 350 kilometres) from the coast. The Commonwealth area extends further in some areas to cover the continental shelf and continental slope. It also includes the waters in the EEZ around the Australian Antarctic Territory and Australia's External Territories, such as Norfolk, Christmas, Heard and Macdonald Islands.
