For your Diary 3 The Department of Environment and Science oversees a large Bonni’s Wallum Garden plantation area between Caboolture and Caloundra, and to the west. Due to the foresight of some far-sighted foresters back in at Nerang 4 the 1930s and 1940s, sections of native forest were set aside as More on Bonni’s Garden 5 the pine forests were established. After the Forestry Act of 1959 Vale Betty Sykes 5 was passed, there was provision for such sections to become Quote 6 "Scientific Areas", to be used for scientific purposes, other than Wallum Hotspot 6 pine plantations. Reminders 6 Being the first such area officially declared in Queensland after 1959, the Beerwah section was therefore named "Beerwah State Forest Scientific Area No. 1". Since then it has been gazetted as a National Park. It is divided into blocks of varying size, which are burnt at different intervals and times according to season and weather.

    Biodiversity Summary for NRM Regions Species List What is the summary for and where does it come from? 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 includes all mammals, birds, reptiles, frogs and fish, 137 families of vascular plants (over 15,000 species) and a range of invertebrate groups. Groups notnot yet yet covered covered in inANHAT ANHAT are notnot included included in in the the list. list. • The data used come from authoritative sources, but they are not perfect.

  • Philotheca Ericifolia (A
    NSW SCIENTIFIC COMMITTEE Philotheca ericifolia (A. Cunn. ex Endl.) Paul G. Wilson (Rutaceae) Review of Current Information in NSW June 2008 Current status: Philotheca ericifolia is currently listed as Vulnerable under the Commonwealth Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999 (EPBC Act). The NSW Scientific Committee recently determined that Philotheca ericifolia does not meet criteria for listing in NSW under the Threatened Species Conservation Act 1995 (TSC Act), based on information contained in this report and other information available for the species. Species description: Weston and Harden (2002, p. 294) describe Philotheca ericifolia as follows: “Spreading shrub 1- 2 m high; stems sparsely glandular-warty, finely pubescent. Leaves needle-like, 4-8 mm long, about 0.5 mm wide, narrow-grooved above, sparsely glandular-punctate, glabrous or sparsely and finely pubescent; petiole short, stipules small, black. Flowers 1-6 in sessile clusters; pedicels 2-5 mm long, minutely bracteolate at base. Petals elliptic, about 9 mm long, purple to pink, glandular warty, slightly white-tomentose inside and on outside except for thick glandular midrib. Stamens free; filaments pilose; anthers glabrous. Cocci erect, about 5 mm long, abruptly attenuate into a subulate pilose apex.” Taxonomy: Philotheca ericifolia was originally described under the name Eriostemon ericifolius (Bentham 1863-78). With the taxonomic review of the genera Philotheca and Eriostemon, the majority of species in the latter genus were transferred to Philotheca (Wilson 1998). The species is very similar to some forms of Philotheca salsolifolia, from which it may be distinguished apart from staminal characters by the narrow-triangular sepals. Philotheca ericifolia also has similarities with Eriostemon difformis, from which it may be distinguished by the acicular leaves (Wilson 1970).

  • The Koala Blooms Introduction Program
    The UCSC/ Koala Blooms Introduction Program and Suncrest Nurseries One of our great local treasures in Santa Cruz County is--and has been for many years--the Arboretum at the University of California, Santa Cruz. I had the pleasure in the 1970s of watching its fledgling collection of Australian plants grow from an odd menagerie under foil-covered bottles to a beautiful public garden. Within a few years it became the most extensive collection of Australian native plants outside Australia itself. The process involved tireless work by the Director, Ray Collett and an enthusiastic, at that point mostly student staff, plus generous cooperation by Rodger Elliot, one of the great plant collectors and distributors of Australia. One of the side benefits of this arrangement was that many of the acquisitions were not merely random representatives of their species, but outstanding horticultural selections. Dr. Collett was notably generous with local nurseryfolk interested in giving these plants a try, and the Arboretum became--as it remains to this day--one of the great sources for new ornamental plant material in California. There was only one thing missing from this picture: Income for the garden to pursue its work in new plant research and introductions. Individual nurseries and the Monterey Bay Chapter of the California Association of Nurseries and Garden Centers have offered significant support. But as the sheer size of the Arboretum and its projects grew, with only modest increases in funding by the University, the quest for funding became an urgent matter. One small piece of the solution was conceived jointly by Rodger Elliot and others at Koala Blooms in Australia and the staff at the Arboretum: A new introduction scheme under which some of the most promising acquisitions from Australia are offered to cooperating nurseries for propagation, and a substantial royalty is paid on each plant sold.

  • Native Plants of Sydney Harbour National Park: Historical Records and Species Lists, and Their Value for Conservation Monitoring
    Native plants of Sydney Harbour National Park: historical records and species lists, and their value for conservation monitoring Doug Benson National Herbarium of New South Wales, Royal Botanic Gardens, Mrs Macquaries Rd, Sydney 2000 AUSTRALIA [email protected] Abstract: Sydney Harbour National Park (lat 33° 53’S; long 151° 13’E), protects significant vegetation on the harbour foreshores close to Sydney City CBD; its floristic abundance and landscape beauty has been acknowledged since the writings of the First Fleet in 1788. Surprisingly, although historical plant collections were made as early as1802, and localised surveys have listed species for parts of the Park since the 1960s, a detailed survey of the flora of whole Park is still needed. This paper provides the first definitive list of the c.400 native flora species for Sydney Harbour National Park (total area 390 ha) showing occurrence on the seven terrestrial sub-regions or precincts (North Head, South Head, Dobroyd Head, Middle Head, Chowder Head, Bradleys Head and Nielsen Park). The list is based on historical species lists, records from the NSW Office of Environment and Heritage (formerly Dept of Environment, Climate Change and Water) Atlas, National Herbarium of New South Wales specimen details, and some additional fieldwork. 131 species have only been recorded from a single precinct site and many are not substantiated with a recent herbarium specimen (though there are historical specimens from the general area for many). Species reported in the sources but for which no current or historic specimen exists are listed separately as being of questionable/non-local status.

We discuss the landscapes of Botany Bay and particularly of the historic landing place at Kurnell (lat 34˚ 00’ S, long 151˚ 13’ E) (about 16 km south of central Sydney), as described in the journals of Lieutenant James Cook and Joseph Banks on the Endeavour voyage in 1770. We list 132 plant species that were collected at Botany Bay by Banks and Daniel Solander, the first scientific collections of Australian flora. The list is based on a critical assessment of unpublished lists compiled by authors who had access to the collection of the British Museum (now Natural History Museum), together with species from material at National Herbarium of New South Wales that has not been previously available. The list includes Bidens pilosa which has been previously regarded as an introduced species. In 1770 the Europeans set foot on Aboriginal land of the Dharawal people. Since that time the landscape has been altered in response to a succession of different land-uses; farming and grazing, commemorative tree planting, parkland planting, and pleasure ground and tourist visitation.
