Pollen tube growth rates (PTGRs) of angiosperms are exceptionally rapid, a pattern 25 attributed to more effective haploid selection under stronger pollen competition. Paradoxically, 26 whole genome duplication (WGD) has been common in angiosperms but rare in gymnosperms.

    AIMS and OBJECTIVES Geoff Needham

    EREMOPHILA STUDY GROUP NEWSLETTER NO. 8. OCTOBER 1977 AIMS AND OBJECTIVES Geoff Needham Our aims and objectives were published in the first Newsletter. After five years of activity, now would be an appropriate time to review our achievements. 1. 'To draw attention to the attractiveness of many species of the genus the majority of which are unknown to horticulture.' This objective has been carried out most effectively, as eremophilas are now sold by many nurseries. Lectures have been given by our members to S.G.A.P. and to other societies. Ken Wames has presented lectures, together with many slides, in four States; articles have appeared in "Australian Plants", and much has been published in books on Australiana. Specimens have been provided for interstate flower shows as well as for general meetings. No criticism can be made of our achievements in this aspect. 2. 'To ascertain the conditions necessary for the successful cultivation of Eremophilo species.' With the build-up in the number of species in cultivation, plus an increase in membership, we have achieved the first step, of growing the plants, but we are sadly lacking in feedback information on their performance in various conditions. To be more specific, the amount of data sent in by members is almost non-existent. Obviously we need this data to ascertain the best conditions. It has been suggested that printed questionnaires could be sent out for members to fill in. This would also make the compiling of answers easier. 3. 'To select the most suitable species for garden culture.' Field trips by our members and other interested people, and those who succeeded in propagating the cuttings, have introduced many more species to culture.

Abstract This part is the first in a series that will describe the biological survey of the Eastern Goldfields District of Western Australia. It deals specifically with the background, aims and objectives of the survey and outlines the methods used to document vegetation, soils, flora and verteprate fauna at numerous sample sites representative of this heterogeneous region. The Eastern Goldfields District (266,000 km') was selected for survey for the following reasons because: there had been no previous detailed survey of the biota of the District, which is a region of considerable interest in that it lies between the mesic South West and arid Eremaean regions; extensive areas of vegetation have remained relatively unmodified since European settlement; the need to evaluate the adequacy of existing conservation reserve systems; pressure to release more land for clearing for cereal crops in south-western and southern parts of the district.

This list has been produced by the Department of Sustainability, Environment, Water, Population and Communities (SEWPC) for the Natural Resource Management Spatial Information System. The list was produced using the AustralianAustralian Natural Natural Heritage Heritage Assessment Assessment Tool Tool (ANHAT), which analyses data from a range of plant and animal surveys and collections from across Australia to automatically generate a report for each NRM region. Data sources (Appendix 2) include national and state herbaria, museums, state governments, CSIRO, Birds Australia and a range of surveys conducted by or for DEWHA. For each family of plant and animal covered by ANHAT (Appendix 1), this document gives the number of species in the country and how many of them are found in the region. It also identifies species listed as Vulnerable, Critically Endangered, Endangered or Conservation Dependent under the EPBC Act. A biodiversity summary for this region is also available. For more information please see: www.environment.gov.au/heritage/anhat/index.html Limitations • ANHAT currently contains information on the distribution of over 30,000 Australian taxa.

This summary has been produced by the Department of Sustainability, Environment, Water, Population and Communities (SEWPC) for the Natural Resource Management Spatial Information System. It highlights important elements of the biodiversity of the region in two ways: • Listing species which may be significant for management because they are found only in the region, mainly in the region, or they have a conservation status such as endangered or vulnerable. • Comparing the region to other parts of Australia in terms of the composition and distribution of its species, to suggest components of its biodiversity which may be nationally significant. The summary was produced using the Australian Natural Natural Heritage Heritage Assessment Assessment Tool Tool (ANHAT), which analyses data from a range of plant and animal surveys and collections from across Australia to automatically generate a report for each NRM region. Data sources (Appendix 2) include national and state herbaria, museums, state governments, CSIRO, Birds Australia and a range of surveys conducted by or for DEWHA.
