Land Unit Master Land Unit Information Sheet Land system name: Northern Plateau Land unit: NP3 General description This land unit represents the lower slopes in a landscape of the gentle rises. Thick, sandy loam topsoils are common, resulting from the deposition of sheet wash off adjacent slopes, and the natural process of soil profile development. The subsoils are usually a compact yellowish, faintly mottled clay, that is, yellow Chromosols. The dominant vegetation is a mid-tall woodland of Eucalyptus melanophloia (silver-leaved ironbark), together with some E. brownii (Reid River box) and an occasional Corymbia dallachiana (ghost gum) The proportions of each change with variations in soil type, but the ironbark becomes dominant on soils with better drainage. Acacia coriacea (desert oak) and Carissa ovata (currant bush) dominate the shrub layer, and Triodia pungens (gummy spinifex), and Themeda triandra (kangaroo grass) the dominant grasses. Regional ecosystem 10.5.5 is predominant.

  • BIODIVERSITY CONSERVATION on the TIWI ISLANDS, NORTHERN TERRITORY: Part 1. Environments and Plants
    BIODIVERSITY CONSERVATION ON THE TIWI ISLANDS, NORTHERN TERRITORY: Part 1. Environments and plants Report prepared by John Woinarski, Kym Brennan, Ian Cowie, Raelee Kerrigan and Craig Hempel. Darwin, August 2003 Cover photo: Tall forests dominated by Darwin stringybark Eucalyptus tetrodonta, Darwin woollybutt E. miniata and Melville Island Bloodwood Corymbia nesophila are the principal landscape element across the Tiwi islands (photo: Craig Hempel). i SUMMARY The Tiwi Islands comprise two of Australia’s largest offshore islands - Bathurst (with an area of 1693 km 2) and Melville (5788 km 2) Islands. These are Aboriginal lands lying about 20 km to the north of Darwin, Northern Territory. The islands are of generally low relief with relatively simple geological patterning. They have the highest rainfall in the Northern Territory (to about 2000 mm annual average rainfall in the far north-west of Melville and north of Bathurst). The human population of about 2000 people lives mainly in the three towns of Nguiu, Milakapati and Pirlangimpi. Tall forests dominated by Eucalyptus miniata, E. tetrodonta, and Corymbia nesophila cover about 75% of the island area. These include the best developed eucalypt forests in the Northern Territory. The Tiwi Islands also include nearly 1300 rainforest patches, with floristic composition in many of these patches distinct from that of the Northern Territory mainland. Although the total extent of rainforest on the Tiwi Islands is small (around 160 km 2 ), at an NT level this makes up an unusually high proportion of the landscape and comprises between 6 and 15% of the total NT rainforest extent. The Tiwi Islands also include nearly 200 km 2 of “treeless plains”, a vegetation type largely restricted to these islands.

  • Regional Ecosystem Technical Descriptions for Einasleigh Uplands
    Department of Science, Information Technology, Innovation and the Arts Regional Ecosystem Technical Descriptions Technical descriptions provide a detailed description of the full range in structure and floristic composition of regional ecosystems (e.g. 9.10.3) and their component vegetation communities (e.g. 9.10.3a, 9.10.3b). The descriptions are compiled using site survey data from the Queensland Herbarium’s CORVEG database. Distribution maps, representative images (if available) and the pre-clearing and remnant area (hectares) of each vegetation community derived from the regional ecosystem mapping (spatial) data are included. The technical descriptions should be used in conjunction with the fields from the regional ecosystem description database (REDD) for a full description of the regional ecosystem. Quantitative site data from relatively undisturbed sites are extracted from CORVEG and summarized to provide information specific to each vegetation community. Technical descriptions include the attributes: tree canopy height and cover and native plant species composition of the predominant layer, which are used to assess the remnant status of vegetation under the Vegetation Management Act 1999. However, as technical descriptions reflect the full range in structure and floristic composition across the climatic, natural disturbance and geographic range of the regional ecosystem, local reference sites should be used where possible (Neldner et al. 2012 section 3.3.1). The technical descriptions are subject to review and are updated as additional

  • Search for Earthworms on the Maret Islands
    1 12/2/2008 Search for earthworms.doc Earthworms on the Maret Islands and adjacent islands, north- west Kimberley region Western Australia Allan Wills Department of Environment and Conservation, locked Bag 104 Bentley Delivery Centre 6983 Abstract The Maret Islands in the Kimberley region of north-west Western Australia are the proposed site of onshore gas processing and shipping facilities and associated accommodation and airport infrastructure. Extensive parts of the islands will be within the he proposed development footprint. Terrestrial oligochaetes (earthworms) were noted by Harvey (2002) as examples of terrestrial invertebrate fauna exhibiting short range endemism. Investigation of earthworm assemblages on the islands proceeded within the scope of two hypotheses: 1. Earthworm species distribution and diversity is structured primarily by soil type and vegetation type; 2. The same set of earthworm species occurs on the islands to be sampled. Presence/absence samples were taken broadly over North and South Maret Islands, ensuring that principal geomorphic types and each vegetation type were assessed in proportion to their representation on each island. Surface soil conditions on the islands did not appear to favour earthworms at the time of the presence/absence survey. Subsequently in late February 2007 an earthworm was collected by Inpex staff beneath a rock on the laterite plateau of South Maret Island, and further specimens were collected during pitfall trapping excavations on South Maret Island (16 and 17 March 2007) and Berthier Island (5 April 2007). This material is mostly sexually immature specimens and requires specialist examination and dissection. None of the material conforms to the only described native species from the region, Diplotrema macleayi, although the most mature specimens are consistent, on the basis of external features, with the genus Diplotrema.

  • CHAPTER 5 Molecular Genetic Diversity of E. Urophylla
    ABSTRACT PAYN, KITT GARNET. Molecular Genetic Diversity and Population Genetic Structure of the Commercially Important Tropical Forest Tree Species Eucalyptus urophylla. (Under the direction of William S. Dvorak.) Eucalyptus urophylla is an economically important plantation tree species in countries with tropical and subtropical climates. Its natural distribution is limited to a series of populations on seven islands of the Sunda archipelago in eastern Indonesia. The largest populations are found on the islands of Timor and Wetar, whereas smaller populations occur on the islands of Alor, Pantar, Lomblen, Adonara and Flores. Of concern is the depletion in the species’ genetic resource, primarily on the latter five islands, as a consequence of land conversion to agriculture. Proficient management of the E. urophylla genetic resource, with respect to both conservation and breeding programs, requires a good understanding of the level of genetic diversity and population genetic structure across the species’ native range. This may be achieved through the application of DNA marker techniques that measure genetic diversity at different levels (e.g. organellar vs. nuclear, or genome-wide vs. gene locus). Historical events such as range expansion and genetic bottlenecks can leave an imprint on contemporary levels of genetic diversity. Therefore, the geographical distribution of chloroplast DNA sequence variation in E. urophylla was studied to gain insight into its historical seed migration routes along the island archipelago. Chloroplast DNA sequence data were obtained from 198 plants broadly representing the native range of the species. Twenty haplotypes were identified. A moderate to high level of chloroplast genetic differentiation (GST = 0.581, NST = 0.724) and significant phylogeographic structure (NST > GST; P < 0.01) were observed, suggesting low levels of recurrent seed-mediated gene flow among the islands.
