Edgbaston Reserve, Nature reserve in central Queensland, Australia
The 8,100-hectare reserve contains grassy eucalypt woodlands, rocky escarpments, and numerous freshwater wetlands connected to artesian springs from the Great Artesian Basin.
The land operated as Aramac Station for pastoral activities until Bush Heritage Australia acquired it in 2008 through the Maintaining Australia's Biodiversity Hotspots program.
The Bidjara Traditional Owners maintain strong connections to this land, with archaeological surveys revealing ancient stone tools and rock art across the reserve.
The reserve lies 140 kilometers northeast of Longreach, featuring protected springs that form the second most varied spring system in the world.
The reserve houses 35 endemic species, including the Red-finned Blue-eye fish and Edgbaston Goby, which exist nowhere else on Earth.
