Il fallait que la SFO renoue avec cette traditionnelle organisation de colloques, manifestation qui a contribué à lui accorder la place prépondérante qu’elle occupe au sein des orchidophiles français et de la communauté scientifique.

  • Shrubland Association on Southern Swan Coastal Plain Ironstone (Busselton Area) (Southern Ironstone Association)
    INTERIM RECOVERY PLAN NO. 215 SHRUBLAND ASSOCIATION ON SOUTHERN SWAN COASTAL PLAIN IRONSTONE (BUSSELTON AREA) (SOUTHERN IRONSTONE ASSOCIATION) INTERIM RECOVERY PLAN 2005-2010 by Rachel Meissner and Val English Photo: Rachel Meissner March 2005 Department of Conservation and Land Management Species and Communities Branch PO Box 51, Wanneroo, WA 6946. FOREWORD Interim Recovery Plans (IRPs) are developed within the framework laid down in Department of Conservation and Land Management (CALM) Policy Statements Nos 44 and 50. IRPs outline the recovery actions that are required to urgently address those threatening processes most affecting the ongoing survival of threatened taxa or ecological communities, and begin the recovery process. CALM is committed to ensuring that Critically Endangered ecological communities are conserved through the preparation and implementation of Recovery Plans or Interim Recovery Plans and by ensuring that conservation action commences as soon as possible and always within one year of endorsement of that rank by CALM's Director of Nature Conservation. This Interim Recovery Plan replaces plan number 44 – „Shrublands on southern Swan Coastal Plain Ironstones‟, Interim Recovery Plan 1999-2002, by V. English. This Interim Recovery Plan will operate from March 2005 to February 2010 but will remain in force until withdrawn or replaced. It is intended that, if the ecological community is still ranked Critically Endangered, this IRP will be reviewed after five years and the need for a full Recovery Plan will be assessed. This IRP was given Regional approval on 21 November 2005 and was approved by the Director of Nature Conservation 13 December 2005. The allocation of staff time and provision of funds identified in this Interim Recovery Plan is dependent on budgetary and other constraints affecting CALM, as well as the need to address other priorities.

  • Translocation Proposal
    TRANSLOCATION PROPOSAL FOR THREE SPECIES FROM THE SOUTHERN IRONSTONE SHRUBLAND ASSOCIATION Butterfly Brachysema - Brachysema papilio Crisp (FABACEAE) Abba Bell - Darwinia sp. Williamson (MYRTACEAE) Laterite Petrophile - Petrophile latericola Keighery ms (PROTEACEAE) 1. SUMMARY Brachysema papilio Brachysema papilio first came to attention during the Swan Coastal Plain Surveys (Gibson et al. 1994) in 1991 and was described as a new species in 1995. B. papilio is a wiry tangled shrub to 1.5 metres tall (Crisp 1995). Adult leaves are opposite and pairs of leaves resemble butterfly wings. Inflorescences are axillary or terminal on short axillary branchlets with one or 2 opposite pairs of flowers. Flowers are cream to red in colour and are present between September and October (Brown et al. 1998). Viability of the seed ranges from 55 to 100% (A. Cochrane, pers. comm.). A small trial, where 2 out of 11 seedlings died, suggests that there may be some level of resistance to dieback in B. papilio. In the summer of 1991/1992 a wildfire burnt through half the population of B. papilio. Subsequent regeneration occurred from seed and the population numbers have recovered to around 100 in 2001. Despite extensive surveys of the southern Swan Coastal Plain between 1992 and 1994 only the original population is known. Brachysema papilio was declared as Rare Flora in 1994 and ranked as Critically Endangered in November 1998. Its ranking as critically endangered is a result of the presence of threatening processes such as changes to hydrology, disease, weeds, mineral sands exploration and inappropriate fire regimes as well as the small number of plants in a single locality.

La distribución y densidad de los individuos dentro de las poblaciones de plantas pueden afectar el éxito reproductivo de sus integrantes. Luego de describir la filogenia de las orquideas del grupo de las Caladeniideas y su biología reproductiva, evaluamos el efecto de la densidad en el éxito reproductivo de la orquídea terrestre Elythranthera brunonis, endémica de Australia del Oeste. El éxito reproductivo de esta orquídea, medido como la deposición y remoción de polinios, fue evaluado.

  • Waterloo Urban and Industrial Expansion Flora and Fauna Survey
    Shire of Dardanup Waterloo Urban and Industrial Expansion Flora and Fauna Survey March 2015 Executive summary This report is subject to, and must be read in conjunction with, the limitations set out in Section 1.4 and the assumptions and qualifications contained throughout the Report. The Greater Bunbury Strategy and Structure Plan identified a potential significant urban expansion area located to the east of the Eaton locality and an industrial expansion area in Waterloo, in the Shire of Dardanup. The Shire of Dardanup (the Shire) and the Department of Planning have commenced preparation of District Structure Plans (DSP) for the urban expansion area and the industrial expansion area. The DSP will be informed by several technical studies including flora and fauna surveys. The Shire has commissioned GHD Pty Ltd (GHD) to undertake a flora and fauna survey and reporting for the Project. The Project Area is situated in the locality of Waterloo in the Shire of Dardanup. The Project Area includes the urban development area to the north of the South- west Highway (SWH) and the industrial development area to the south of the SWH. GHD undertook a desktop assessment of the Project Area and a flora and fauna field assessment with the first phase conducted from 13 to 14 August, 2014 and the second phase conducted from 29 to 31 October 2014. The purpose of this assessment was to identify the parts of the Project Area that have high, moderate and low ecological values so that the Shire can develop the DSP in consideration of these ecological values. This assessment identified the biological features of the Project Area and the key results are as follows.
