  • Ecology of Proteaceae with Special Reference to the Sydney Region
    951 Ecology of Proteaceae with special reference to the Sydney region P.J. Myerscough, R.J. Whelan and R.A. Bradstock Myerscough, P.J.1, Whelan, R.J.2, and Bradstock, R.A.3 (1Institute of Wildlife Research, School of Biological Sciences (A08), University of Sydney, NSW 2006; 2Department of Biological Sciences, University of Wollongong, NSW 2522; 3Biodiversity Research and Management Division, NSW National Parks & Wildlife Service, PO Box 1967, Hurstville, NSW 1481) Ecology of Proteaceae with special reference to the Sydney region. Cunninghamia 6(4): 951–1015. In Australia, the Proteaceae are a diverse group of plants. They inhabit a wide range of environments, many of which are low in plant resources. They support a wide range of animals and other organisms, and show distinctive patterns of distribution in relation to soils, climate and geological history. These patterns of distribution, relationships with nutrients and other resources, interactions with animals and other organisms and dynamics of populations in Proteaceae are addressed in this review, particularly for the Sydney region. The Sydney region, with its wide range of environments, offers great opportunities for testing general questions in the ecology of the Proteaceae. For instance, its climate is not mediterranean, unlike the Cape region of South Africa, south- western and southern Australia, where much of the research on plants of Proteaceae growing in infertile habitats has been done. The diversity and abundance of Proteaceae vary in the Sydney region inversely with fertility of habitats. In the region’s rainforest there are few Proteaceae and their populations are sparse, whereas in heaths in the region, Proteaceae are often diverse and may dominate the canopy.

  • Effects of Inter-Fire Intervals on the Reproductive Output of Resprouters
    Austral Ecology (2005) 30, 407–413 Effects of inter-fire intervals on the reproductive output of resprouters and obligate seeders in the Proteaceae KIRSTEN J. E. KNOX* AND DAVID A. MORRISON† Department of Environmental Sciences, University of Technology Sydney, Gore Hill, New South Wales, Australia Abstract Fire is often used as a management tool in fire-prone communities to reduce fuel loads with the intention of reducing the severity and extent of unplanned fires, often resulting in the increased occurrence of fire in the dry sclerophyll vegetation of Australia. This study examined the effects of fire frequency (length of the inter- fire interval) on the reproductive output of seven plant species in the Proteaceae, including obligate seeding shrubs (Hakea teretifolia, Petrophile pulchella), resprouting shrubs (Banksia spinulosa, Isopogon anemonifolius, Lambertia formosa) and resprouting trees (Banksia serrata, Xylomelum pyriforme). Reproductive output (measured as either number of confructescences or follicles) and relative size were estimated for 100 individuals at each of five sample sites, covering a range of past fire frequencies over 26 years including repeated short inter-fire intervals. Patterns in reproductive output (after standardizing for size) were related to the life-history attributes of the species. In areas that had experienced short inter-fire intervals, obligate seeders had greater reproductive output compared with longer intervals, and the reproductive output of resprouting shrubs was less. Fire frequency did not affect reproductive

Address for correspondence: Kristine French, Dept of Biological Sciences, University of Wollongong, Wollongong, NSW 2522. email: [email protected]) Vegetation of the Holsworthy Military Area. Cunninghamia 6(4): 893–940 Vegetation in the Holsworthy Military Area located 35 km south-west of Sydney (33°59'S 150°57'E) in the Campbelltown and Liverpool local government areas was surveyed and mapped. The data were analysed using multivariate techniques to identify significantly different floristic groups that identified distinct communities. Eight vegetation communities were identified, four on infertile sandstones and four on more fertile shales and alluviums. On more fertile soils, Melaleuca Thickets, Plateau Forest on Shale, Shale/Sandstone Transition Forests and Riparian Scrub were distinguished. On infertile soils, Gully Forest, Sandstone Woodland, Woodland/Heath Complex and Sedgelands were distinguished. We identified sets of species that characterise each community either because they are unique or because they contribute significantly to the separation of the vegetation community from other similar communities. The Holsworthy Military Area contains relatively undisturbed vegetation with low weed invasion. It is a good representation of continuous vegetation that occurs on the transition between the Woronora Plateau and the Cumberland Plain. The Plateau Forest on Shale is considered to be Cumberland Plains Woodland and together with the Shale/Sandstone Transition Forest, are endangered ecological communities under the NSW Threatened Species Conservation Act 1995.

  • Floral Presentation Contributes to Pollinator Guild Segregation in Co-Blooming Symphionema Montanum and Isopogon Anemonifolius (Proteaceae)

Bernhardt1,2, G.R. Camilo1 & P.H. Weston2 1Department of Biology, Saint Louis University, 3507 Laclede Avenue, St Louis, MO 63103-2010 USA. [email protected] 2National Herbarium of New South Wales, Royal Botanic Garden, Mrs Macquaries Road,Sydney NSW 2000, Australia. ABSTRACT. Sympatric populations of Symphionema montanum R.Br. and Isopogon anemonifolius (Salisb.) Knight showed overlapping flowering periods during November 2009 in the Blue Mountains (New South Wales, Australia). Symphionema montanum has porose anthers encircling the protruding style, and lacks a pollen presenter. In contrast, sessile, longitudinally dehiscent anthers of Isopogon anemonifolius deposit pollen grains on the subterminus of the style (pollen presenter). Neither species secretes nectar. The majority of foragers on Symphionema montanum were polylectic, female bees (Halictidae). Their pollen foraging resembled sonication and shaking. Polylectic, female bees (Colletidae) were dominant foragers on Isopogon anemonifolius grasping styles with their mandibles while scraping the pollen presenter. Exoneura species (Apidae) visited both shrubs. Only two specimens of Callomelitta antipodes on Isopogon anemonifolius carried pollen of both shrub species. Most bees, collected on either shrub, carried the grains of their host mixed with one to six pollen morphotypes of co-blooming, nectariferous taxa. We report a positive correlation between an increase in bee size and the number of morphotypes carried but colletids of Isopogon anemonifolius carried fewer morphotypes than halictids on Symphionema montanum.

Isopogon & Petrophile Study Group Newsletter 1 From the editor Welcome to the restarted Isopogon and Petrophile Study Group. We hope you enjoy this first newsletter under our leadership as much as the sixteen previous newsletters put out by Study Group founder David Lightfoot since 2001. We thank David for his outstanding contribution in starting and steering the group for so long, and look forward to continuing to benefit from his expertise as a member in the future. Like 99.9 per cent of the Australian population, we were not aware of isopogons let alone petrophiles until we saw them growing in Canberra in a garden setting many years ago. We started growing native plants with a particular passion for banksias which quickly grew to also encompass dryandras, hakeas, grevilleas, eremophilas…….and just keeps growing. Our love of isopogons and petrophiles really took off when we began visiting Western Australia.

And of course telling all your friends what great plants they are! We have a fantastic issue for you, thanks to the great contributions from you, our members. The theme for this issue is the propagation of isopogons and petrophiles. We examine three methods – seed raising, cuttings and grafting. Members from the winter-rainfall States Victoria, South Australia and Western Australia may be able to grow many species on their own roots with some success, however grafting is essential on the East Coast for most of the WA species.
