==Endemic species== Eungella National Park is recognised as a centre of [[endemism]] for Australian rainforest species.<ref name="low 93">Low, T. 1993. Last of the rainforests: rainforest refuges of the Mackay region. Wildlife Australia 30:18-21.</ref> There were three key refuge areas in mid-east Queensland during past periods of rainforest contraction.<ref name=winter /><ref name="low 93" /> The most important is thought to have been in the Clarke Range and Eungella National Park area, which support many endemic species, including a spiny crayfish, ''[[Euastacus eungella]]'' (Eungella spiny crayfish); a leaf-tailed gecko, ''[[Phyllurus nepthys]]'' (Eungella leaf-tailed gecko); a skink, ''[[Tumbunascincus luteilateralis]]'' (orange-spotted forest-skink); a honeyeater, ''[[Bolemoreus hindwoodi]]'' (Eungella honeyeater); and three frogs, ''[[Taudactylus liemi]]'' (Eungella tinker frog), ''[[Taudactylus eungellensis]]'' (Eungella torrent frog or Eungella dayfrog) and ''[[Rheobatrachus vitellinus]]'' (northern gastric-brooding frog).<ref name="low 93" />
