[ Gazetteer of Australia (1996). Belconnen, ACT: Australian Surveying and Land Information Group.] Dubious names have been checked against the online 2004 data,
and in all cases confirmed correct. However, if any watercourses have been gazetted or deleted since 1996, this list does not reflect these changes. Strictly speaking, Australian place names are gazetted in capital letters only; the names in this list have been converted to mixed case in accordance with normal capitalization conventions. Locations are as gazetted; some watercourses may extend over long distances.
