Dillwynia Juniperina LC Taxonomic Authority: Lodd Dillwynia juniperina LC Taxonomic Authority: Lodd. Global Assessment Regional Assessment Region: Global Endemic to region Synonyms Common Names PRICKLY PARROT PEA English (Primary) Upper Level Taxonomy Kingdom: PLANTAE Phylum: TRACHEOPHYTA Class: MAGNOLIOPSIDA Order: FABALES Family: LEGUMINOSAE Lower Level Taxonomy Rank: Infra- rank name: Plant Hybrid Subpopulation: Authority: Dillwynia sieberi Steud. and Dillwynia juniperina Lodd. were both confused under D. juniperina. General Information Distribution Dillwynia juniperina is endemic to Australia, distributed in the states of New South Wales and Victoria, also in the Australian Capital Territory. It occurs only in a few sites in south New South Wales (in Culcairn, Trunkey and Bowan Park) and in the Northen Tablelands populations are in fragmented woodlands, often along road easements and often in a very degraded state with weed invasions (Gross 2001). Range Size Elevation Biogeographic Realm Area of Occupancy: Upper limit: 1200 Afrotropical Extent of Occurrence: Lower limit: Antarctic Map Status: Depth Australasian Upper limit: Neotropical Lower limit: Oceanian Depth Zones Palearctic Shallow photic Bathyl Hadal Indomalayan Photic Abyssal Nearctic Population Total population size and dynamics are not known, but it has been recently collected in 2004. Total Population Size Minimum Population Size: Maximum Population Size: Habitat and Ecology A shrub that grows in dry sclerophyll forest and woodlands usually on poor skeletal, sandy or gravelly soils. Its flowers obligately require pollination by bees (Gross 2001). System Movement pattern Crop Wild Relative Terrestrial Freshwater Nomadic Congregatory/Dispersive Is the species a wild relative of a crop? Marine Migratory Altitudinally migrant Growth From Definition Shrub - large Perennial shrub (>1m), also termed a Phanerophyte (>1m) Threats There are no major threats known to this species. However, the habitat where this species is distributed was extensively cleared for industrial and urban development, furthermore human-caused fires might threaten some populations in this fragmented habitat. Past Present Future 1 Habitat Loss/Degradation (human induced) 1.4 Infrastructure development 1.4.1 Industry 1.4.2 Human settlement 1.7 Fires Conservation Measures Some populations of this species occur with protected areas, most notably in Warby Range State Part (Victoria) and Morton National Park in New South Wales. However, more research is needed to verify the range of this species, since this species was confused with D. sieberi. This species is not listed as Threatened in the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999 (EPBC Act). It is also recommended that its seeds are banked for ex situ conservation.

Possibly Extinct Candidate? Rationale for the Red List Assessment D. juniperina is listed as Least Concern in view of its wide distribution through south-eastern Australia within its natural range and the fact that it is known to occur in protected areas. The species has not been classified as Threatened by the EPBC Act, however it is recommended that this species is surveyed to understand population dynamics and size to determine the full extent of its range, and that its seeds are banked as an ex situ conservation measure.

  • Rare Or Threatened Vascular Plant Species of Wollemi National Park, Central Eastern New South Wales
    Rare or threatened vascular plant species of Wollemi National Park, central eastern New South Wales. Stephen A.J. Bell Eastcoast Flora Survey PO Box 216 Kotara Fair, NSW 2289, AUSTRALIA Abstract: Wollemi National Park (c. 32o 20’– 33o 30’S, 150o– 151oE), approximately 100 km north-west of Sydney, conserves over 500 000 ha of the Triassic sandstone environments of the Central Coast and Tablelands of New South Wales, and occupies approximately 25% of the Sydney Basin biogeographical region. 94 taxa of conservation signiicance have been recorded and Wollemi is recognised as an important reservoir of rare and uncommon plant taxa, conserving more than 20% of all listed threatened species for the Central Coast, Central Tablelands and Central Western Slopes botanical divisions. For a land area occupying only 0.05% of these divisions, Wollemi is of paramount importance in regional conservation. Surveys within Wollemi National Park over the last decade have recorded several new populations of signiicant vascular plant species, including some sizeable range extensions. This paper summarises the current status of all rare or threatened taxa, describes habitat and associated species for many of these and proposes IUCN (2001) codes for all, as well as suggesting revisions to current conservation risk codes for some species. For Wollemi National Park 37 species are currently listed as Endangered (15 species) or Vulnerable (22 species) under the New South Wales Threatened Species Conservation Act 1995. An additional 50 species are currently listed as nationally rare under the Briggs and Leigh (1996) classiication, or have been suggested as such by various workers. Seven species are awaiting further taxonomic investigation, including Eucalyptus sp.

  • Native Plant Identification CONTACT in the Northern and Yorke Region
    Government of South Australia Northern and Yorke Natural FACT SHEET NO 2.018 Resources Management Board September 2011 NRM Plan Native plant identification CONTACT In the Northern and Yorke Region Main Office Basic plant identification is a vital skill for Northern and Yorke NRM Board land managers. It assists in appreciating PO Box 175 the vegetation around you and managing 41-49 Eyre Road that vegetation. Does a plant belong on a Crystal Brook SA 5523 site or is it a weed? Ph: (08) 8636 2361 Fx: (08) 8636 2371 This fact sheet introduces some of the www.nynrm.sa.gov.au common plant groups of the Northern and Yorke Region and how to identify them. All living things have been categorized into what is known as the Linnaean System of classification. Plants are grouped using common attributes until each plant is given a unique Classification. The steps of Classification are: • Kingdom • Division • Class • Order • Family • Subfamily • Genus • Species This results in a unique Botanical or Scientific name consisting of Genus and Species. Some plants are further split into sub species. Most plants have at least one common name. These are non scientific and often vary from region to region. Some plants may have the same common name, this often causes confusion so it is important to use the Botanical name. The plants right would be referred to as Eucalyptus leucoxylon subspecies leucoxylon or the South Australian Blue Gum. This plant is known as Yellow Gum in Victoria. Glossary of common botanical terms Annual A plant that completes its life within one year.

  • Post-Fire Recovery of Woody Plants in the New England Tableland Bioregion
    Post-fire recovery of woody plants in the New England Tableland Bioregion Peter J. ClarkeA, Kirsten J. E. Knox, Monica L. Campbell and Lachlan M. Copeland Botany, School of Environmental and Rural Sciences, University of New England, Armidale, NSW 2351, AUSTRALIA. ACorresponding author; email: [email protected] Abstract: The resprouting response of plant species to fire is a key life history trait that has profound effects on post-fire population dynamics and community composition. This study documents the post-fire response (resprouting and maturation times) of woody species in six contrasting formations in the New England Tableland Bioregion of eastern Australia. Rainforest had the highest proportion of resprouting woody taxa and rocky outcrops had the lowest. Surprisingly, no significant difference in the median maturation length was found among habitats, but the communities varied in the range of maturation times. Within these communities, seedlings of species killed by fire, mature faster than seedlings of species that resprout. The slowest maturing species were those that have canopy held seed banks and were killed by fire, and these were used as indicator species to examine fire immaturity risk. Finally, we examine whether current fire management immaturity thresholds appear to be appropriate for these communities and find they need to be amended. Cunninghamia (2009) 11(2): 221–239 Introduction Maturation times of new recruits for those plants killed by fire is also a critical biological variable in the context of fire Fire is a pervasive ecological factor that influences the regimes because this time sets the lower limit for fire intervals evolution, distribution and abundance of woody plants that can cause local population decline or extirpation (Keith (Whelan 1995; Bond & van Wilgen 1996; Bradstock et al.

McGann) August 2002 © J.T.Hunter 2002 75 Kendall Rd, Invergowrie NSW, 2350 Ph. & Fax: (02) 6775 2452 Email: [email protected] A Report to the New South Wales National Parks and Wildlife Service i Vegetation of Ironbark & Bornhardtia Summary The vegetation of Ironbark Nature Reserve and the Bornhardtia Voluntary Conservation Area is described and mapped (scale 1:25 000). Eleven communities are defined based on classification (Kulczynski association) with further sub-assemblages described. These eleven communities were mapped based on ground truthing, air photo interpretation and landform. One community is listed as Endangered on state and federal acts (TSC & EPB&C Acts), three are considered here to be vulnerable and all others are considered to be poorly or inadequately reserved across their range. Most communities are of woodland and open forest structure. The communities show considerable variation and intergrade along common boundaries and in particular on intermediate soil types. Drainage, Easting, Soil Depth, Physiography and protection from the North were the major correlative influences on community distribution, however Northing and Rock Type were also strongly correlated. A total of 477 vascular plant taxa were found from 93 families and 269 genera. At least 39 species are considered of significance, 30 are of regional significance and a further nine are of state or national significance. Two species are listed on the TSC Act, one as Endangered and one as Vulnerable nine are RoTAP listed species or are listed under this criteria in other publications.

  • Chapter 1. Introduction 7 ------~
    CHAPTER 1. INTRODUCTION 1.1 INTRODUCTION The practice of large-scale clearing of vegetation to provide for a burgeoning global human population, has instigated extensive scientific interest aimed at disentangling the consequent effects imposed on communities, populations and individual species. The term most commonly used to describe the physical alteration of landscapes that undergo thi process is "fragmentation". Fragmentation is broadly defined as "the subdivision of originally continuous habitats into smaller more isolated patches" (Aguilar & Galetto 2004) and variations on that theIne (Jennersten 1988; Young et of. 1996; Nason & Hamrick 1997; Warburton et of. 2000; Jacquemyn et of. 2002). Many components of the landscape and ecological processes can be affected by fragmentation. For example, changes in water regime, radiation, and wind within the altered landscape can have diverse effects on local biota (Saunders et of. 1991) including the response of pollinators to altered habitat quantity and quality (Aizen et of. 2002). Since overall species richness and abundance can be negatively affected (Jennersten 1988), the maintenance of complex interactions paramount to ecosystem function are likely to be affected also. Indeed Bond (1994) conveys the possibility of a cascade of extinctions should these intricate interactions be compromised by, among other threats, human-induced habitat alteration. The decimation and/or fragmentation of habitats is one of the leading threats to biodiversity and biodiversity loss in turn, may compromise ecosystem function (Steffan-Dewenter & Tschamtke 1999; Harris & Johnson 2004). In light of this (and the generally held belief that habitat loss and landscape fragmentation are crucial factors in driving a global mass extinction event), it is not surprising that fragmentation oriented research is considered to be of high priority (McGarigal & Cushman 2002; Rossetto 2006).
