The records may be viewed in our web mapping application, NR Maps. https://nrmaps.nt.gov.au/nrmaps.html 
See folder Biodiversity &gt; Fauna Atlas
The records are displayed as 4 data layers, described as follows; 

Threatened Fauna: Any species classified as either critically endangered, endangered or vulnerable under the EPBC Act or TPWC Act 
Significant Fauna: Any species classified as either Critically Endangered, Endangered, Vulnerable, Near Threatened, Data Deficient under either the EPBC Act or TPWC Act.
Native Fauna: Species that occur or have occurred naturally in the Northern Territory region, ecosystem or habitat without human introduction 
Introduced Fauna: Species that are not native and have been accidentally or deliberately transported to the Northern Territory by human activity 

A checklist of NT Fauna taxa is also available to the public. See Supplementary Information in this metadata record.</gco:CharacterString></gmd:abstract><gmd:resourceMaintenance><gmd:MD_MaintenanceInformation><gmd:maintenanceAndUpdateFrequency><gmd:MD_MaintenanceFrequencyCode codeList="http://www.isotc211.org/resources/codeList?MD_MaintenanceFrequencyCode" codeListValue="continual"/></gmd:maintenanceAndUpdateFrequency></gmd:MD_MaintenanceInformation></gmd:resourceMaintenance><gmd:resourceConstraints><gmd:MD_LegalConstraints><gmd:useLimitation><gco:CharacterString>Download the spatial data package via https://data.nt.gov.au/
