Declared Rare and Poorly Known Flora in the Narrogin District WESTERN AUSTRALIAN WILDLIFE MANAGEMENT PROGRAM NO. 30 DECLARED RARE AND POORLY KNOWN FLORA IN THE NARROGIN DISTRICT by Gregory S.

Buehrig 1Department of Conservation and Land Management Narrogin District Hough Street Narrogin WA 6312 2001 Department of Conservation and Land Management Locked Bag 104 Bentley Delivery Centre WA 6983 ISSN 0816-9713 Cover illustration: Stylidium sejunctus ms. by Allen Lowrie The Department of Conservation and Land Management's Recovery Plans are edited by the Western Australian Threatened Species and Communities Unit PO Box 51 Wanneroo, Western Australia 6946. Telephone: 89405 5128 Fax 89306 1066 Maps: Gregory Durell Page preparation: Michelle Boothey Final preparation by Jill Pryde ii FOREWORD Western Australian Wildlife Management Programs are a series of publications produced by the Department of Conservation and Land Management (CALM). The programs are prepared in addition to Regional Management Plans to provide detailed information and guidance for the management and protection of certain exploited or threatened species (eg Kangaroos, Noisy Scrub-bird and Rose Mallee). This Program provides a brief description of the appearance, distribution, habitat and conservation status of flora declared as rare under the Western Australian Wildlife Conservation Act (Threatened Flora) and poorly known flora (Priority Flora) in CALM's Narrogin District and makes recommendations for research and management action necessary to ensure their continued survival. By ranking the Declared Rare Flora in priority order according to these requirements, Departmental staff and other resources can be allocated to those taxa most urgently in need of attention. Priority Flora that are considered to have the greatest requirement for assessment for declaration as rare flora are also specifically dealt with, but in less detail than the Declared Rare Flora. However, the information contained in this Program should assist in the ongoing work of assessing their conservation status. This Program has been approved by the Executive Director, Department of Conservation and Land Management, the National Parks and Nature Conservation Authority and the Minister for the Environment. Approved programs are subject to modification as dictated by new findings, changes in species' status and completion of recovery actions. Information in this plan is accurate to 1996. iii ACKNOWLEDGMENTS We are indebted to the many people for their support, assistance and encouragement in the background research, field work and preparation of this document. The assistance of CALM Narrogin District staff, Peter Batt and Brian MacMahon, during field surveys was appreciated. The support of Tim Bowra in finalising this document is acknowledged. Many staff at the WA Herbarium were extremely helpful. Identification assistance was provided by Ray Cranfield, Bruce Maslin, Sue Patrick, Paul Wilson, Greg Keighery, Chang Sha Fang, Richard Cowan, Alex Chapman and Neville Marchant. Taxonomic assistance from Michael Crisp and Lyn Craven was also appreciated. The assistance by Ken Atkins and Mike O’Donoghue facilitating access to CALM records was appreciated. Special thanks to Rodney Clifton for access to Merredin District records, Sue Carroll for help accessing the WA Herbarium database, Elizabeth George for identification and advice on Verticordia, Alex George for identification and advice on Dryandra, Margaret Pieroni for information on Dryandra, Allan Lowrie for information and line drawings of Stylidium, Beng Siew Mahon for library assistance and Carol Milligan for compiling record information. Anne Coates’ guided tour of Dragon Rocks Nature Reserve was valuable. The formatting and editing assistance of Michelle Boothey and Sharon Hann is appreciated. iv ABBREVIATIONS USED CALM - Reserve vested with the Executive Director of CALM CAM - Camping Reserve CBH - Cooperative Bulk Handling Reserve GRS - Shire Gravel Reserve NP - National Park NR - Nature Reserve PP - Private Property REC - Recreation Reserve RVM - Main Roads Road Verge RVS - Shire Road Verge RWR - Westrail Reserve SF - State Forest SR - Shire Reserve (other) TBR - Timber Reserve TRS - Trig Station TWS - Town Site VCL - Vacant Crown Land WAR - Water Reserve COM - Common Reserve v CONTENTS Page Leucopogon marginatus...................................... 68 FOREWORD ........................................................ iii Myriophyllum petraeum...................................... 70 Pultenaea pauciflora........................................... 72 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS ................................. iv Rhizanthella gardneri.......................................... 75 ABBREVIATIONS USED .................................... v Thelymitra stellata .............................................. 78 Thomasia montana.............................................. 80 CONTENTS .......................................................... vi Verticordia fimbrilepis subsp.

  • The Vegetation of Granitic Outcrop Communities on the New England Batholith of Eastern Australia
    547 The vegetation of granitic outcrop communities on the New England Batholith of eastern Australia John T. Hunter and Peter J. Clarke Hunter, John T. and Clarke, Peter J. (Division of Botany, University of New England, Armidale, NSW 2350) 1998. The vegetation of granitic outcrop communities on the New England Batholith of eastern Australia. Cunninghamia 5 (3): 547–618. The vegetation of 22 areas of granitic outcrops on the New England Batholith has been surveyed using semi-quantitative quadrat sampling. In total 399 0.1 ha quadrats were placed on 216 outcrops. Twenty-eight plant communities in nine major groups and an additional unsurveyed community are circumscribed. A high number of nationally rare or threatened taxa, many of which are restricted to outcrop areas, have been found in these communities along with many taxa of special note. Previous studies have over-emphasised structure which can vary considerably with negligible floristic change. Suggestions are made on potential areas for reservation. Introduction Studies concentrating on the vegetation of granitic outcrops have been undertaken throughout the world (e.g. Whitehouse 1933; Oosting & Anderson 1937; McVaugh 1943; Keever et al. 1951; Keever 1957; Hambler 1964; Murdy et al. 1970; Sharitz & McCormick 1973; Rundel 1975; Shure & Fagsdale 1977; Wyatt 1977; Phillips 1981; Phillips 1982; Wyatt 1981; Baskin & Baskin 1982; Walters 1982; Burbanck & Phillips 1983; Wyatt 1984a, b; Uno & Collins 1987; Baskin & Baskin 1988; Houle & Phillips 1988; Houle & Phillips 1989a, b; Houle 1990; Porembski et al. 1994; Ibisch et al. 1995; Porembski 1995; Porembski et al. 1996). Research into outcrops, and in particular granitic outcrops, has culminated in the formation of the ‘Inselberg-Projeckt’ supported by the Deutsche Forschungsge-meinschaft (Porembski et al.

  • Anigozanthos Bicolor Subsp. Minor) Recovery Plan
    SMALL TWO-COLOURED KANGAROO PAW (ANIGOZANTHOS BICOLOR SUBSP. MINOR) RECOVERY PLAN Department of Environment and Conservation Kensington Recovery Plan for Anigozanthos bicolor subsp. minor FOREWORD Interim Recovery Plans (IRPs) are developed within the framework laid down in Department of Conservation and Land Management (CALM) [now Department of Environment and Conservation (DEC)] Policy Statements Nos. 44 and 50. Note: the Department of CALM formally became the Department of Environment and Conservation (DEC) in July 2006. DEC will continue to adhere to these Policy Statements until they are revised and reissued. IRPs outline the recovery actions that are required to urgently address those threatening processes most affecting the ongoing survival of threatened taxa or ecological communities, and begin the recovery process. DEC is committed to ensuring that Threatened taxa are conserved through the preparation and implementation of Recovery Plans (RPs) or IRPs, and by ensuring that conservation action commences as soon as possible and, in the case of Critically Endangered (CR) taxa, always within one year of endorsement of that rank by the Minister. This Interim Recovery Plan will operate from May 2006 to April 2011 but will remain in force until withdrawn or replaced. It is intended that, if the taxon is still ranked Critically Endangered (WA), this IRP will be reviewed after five years and the need for further recovery actions assessed. This IRP was given regional approval on 13 February, 2006 and was approved by the Director of Nature Conservation on 22 February, 2006. The allocation of staff time and provision of funds identified in this Interim Recovery Plan is dependent on budgetary and other constraints affecting DEC, as well as the need to address other priorities.
