  • Vegetation of Durokoppin and Kodj Kodjin Nature Reserves
    II VEGETATION OF DUROKOPPIN AND KODJ KODJIN NATURE RESERVES B.G. MUIR INTRODUCfION Durokoppin Reserve (DR) and Kodj Kodjin Reserve (KKR) both fall within the Avon district of the South-west Botanical Province of Gardner and Bennetts (1956) and the vegetation of the Reserves largely conforms to that generally found throughout this region. Abbreviated vegetation descriptions of DR appear in Appendix 1 and of KKR in Appendix 3. Full descriptions of the vegetation following the format presented in Muir (1977a) have been lodged in the Archives of Western Australian Museum; details are available on request from the Librarian. A description of the road verge connecting DR and KKR is given at the end of Appendix 1. Methodology The vegetation of DR and KKR was mapped at Level 2 of the reliability scale set out in Muir (1977a). Each vegetation formation discernible on the air photographs was examined on the ground; this information was then extrapolated to adjacent formations. Uncleared land contiguous to the Reserves but not included within them was mapped at formation level directly from the photographs (Level 3). Level 2 locations, shown on vegetation Maps 1 and 2 represent 'sample areas' where the vegetation was examined and described using the classifica­ tion shown in Table 1 and discussed in detail in Muir (1977a). The following prefix numbers of the locations represent basic formation types. 1 woodland formations 5 lithic complexes 2 mallee formations 6 breakaway complexes 3 shrubland formations 7 salt complexes 4 heaths 8 other Level 3 locations are shown on the maps prefixed by: W = woodland formations M = mallee formations The methods used in classifying formations, coding habitat data, preparing plant lists, classifying litter and describing soils are those of Muir (1977a).

    DRAFT 25/10/90; plant list updated Oct. 1992; notes added June 2021. PRELIMINARY REPORT ON THE CONSERVATION VALUES OF OPEN COUNTRY PADDOCK, BOOLARDY STATION Allan H. Burbidge and J.K. Rolfe INTRODUCTION Boolardy Station is situated about 150 km north of Yalgoo and 140 km west-north-west of Cue, in the Shire of Murchison, Western Australia. Open Country Paddock (about 16 000 ha) is in the south-east corner of the station, at 27o05'S, 116o50'E. The most prominent named feature is Coolamooka Hill, near the eastern boundary of the paddock. There are no conservation reserves in this region, although there are some small reserves set aside for various other purposes. Previous biological data for the station consist of broad scale vegetation mapping and land system mapping. Beard (1976) mapped the entire Murchison region at 1: 1 000 000. The Open Country Paddock area was mapped as supporting mulga woodlands and shrublands. More detailed mapping of land system units for rangeland assessment purposes has been carried out more recently at a scale of 1: 40 000 (Payne and Curry in prep.). Seven land systems were identified in open Country Paddock (Fig. 1). Apart from these studies, no detailed biological survey work appears to have been done in the area. Open Country Paddock has been only lightly grazed by domestic stock because of the presence of Kite-leaf Poison (Gastrolobium laytonii) and a lack of fresh water. Because of this and the generally good condition of the paddock and presence of a wide range of plant species, P.J.

    The Pastoral History, Biological and Cultural Signifi cance of the Scotia Country, far Western New South Wales MARTIN WESTBROOKE Centre for Environmental Management, University of Ballarat, Mt Helen, Victoria 3353 ([email protected]) Published on 28 August 2012 at http://escholarship.library.usyd.edu.au/journals/index.php/LIN Westbrooke, M. (2012). The pastoral history, biological and cultural signifi cance of the Scotia Country, far western New South Wales. Proceedings of the Linnean Society of New South Wales 134, A55-A68. The Scotia country of far western New South Wales, once part of the vast Lake Victoria lease and subsequently split into six smaller properties after WW1, has one of the shortest grazing histories in the state. The low stocking rates due to unsuitable feed provided by the mallee vegetation and limited water supplies have left native vegetation communities relatively intact and close to original condition. A natural salt lake system with rare plants and plant communities adds to the values of the area. This paper reviews the pastoral history of the area and the features which make the Scotia of outstanding conservation and cultural signifi cance. Manuscript received 19 October 2011, accepted for publication 11 January 2012. KEYWORDS: conservation, cultural, mallee, pastoral lease, plant communities, Scotia. INTRODUCTION BACKGROUND TO THE ESTABLISHMENT OF THE SCOTIA BLOCKS The Scotia country of approximately 200,000ha is located in far western New South Wales mid- The Scotia blocks (see Table 1) are located in far way between Wentworth and Broken Hill, latitude south western New South Wales to the west of the 33o43’S, longitude 143o02’E (Fig.

The programs are prepared in addition to Regional Management Plans and species' Recovery Plans to provide detailed information and guidance for the management and protection of certain threatened and Priority species within a particular area. 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 the Shire of Wongan-Ballidu and makes recommendations for research and management action necessaiy to ensure their continued survival. By ranking the Declared Rare Flora in priority order for these requirements, Depai1mental staff and resources can be allocated to plant taxa most urgently in need of attention. Priority Flora that are under consideration for declaration are dealt with to a lesser exteflt than the Declared Rare Flora.
