Gum Trees Talk Notes
Australian Plants Society NORTH SHORE GROUP Eucalyptus, Angophora, Corymbia FAMILY MYRTACEAE GUM TREES OF THE KU-RING-GAI WILDFLOWER GARDEN Did you know that: • The fossil evidence for the first known Gum Tree was from the Tertiary 35-40 million years ago. • Myrtaceae is a very large family of over 140 genera and 3000 species of evergreen trees and shrubs. • There are over 900 species of Gum Trees in the Family Myrtaceae in Australia. • In the KWG, the Gum Trees are represented in the 3 genera: Eucalyptus, Angophora & Corymbia. • The name Eucalyptus is derived from the Greek eu = well and kalyptos = covered. BRIEF HISTORY E. obliqua The 18th &19th centuries were periods of extensive land exploration in Australia. Enormous numbers of specimens of native flora were collected and ended up in England. The first recorded scientific collection of Australian flora was made by Joseph Banks and Daniel Solander, during Sir James Cook’s 1st voyage to Botany Bay in April 1770. From 1800-1810, George Caley collected widely in N.S.W with exceptional skill and knowledge in his observations, superb preservation of plant specimens, extensive records and fluent expression in written records. It is a great pity that his findings were not published and he didn’t receive the recognition he deserved. The identification and classification of the Australian genus Eucalyptus began in 1788 when the French botanist Charles L’Heritier de Brutelle named a specimen in the British Museum London, Eucalyptus obliqua. This specimen was collected by botanist David Nelson on Captain Cook’s ill- fated third expedition in 1777 to Adventure Bay on Tasmania’s Bruny Is. -

Australian Natural Product Research
AUSTRALIAN NATURAL PRODUCT RESEARCH J. R. PRICE Chtmzical Research Laboratories, C.S.I.R.O., Melbourne, Australia At a meeting of this kind, a considerable proportion of the papers delivered will inevitably be concerned with work carried out in the host country. I have assumed, therefore, that the purpose of the Organizing Committee in inviting me to speak to you about Australian natural product chemistry was to provide a framework for the picture which thesepaperswill present. To do this it will be necessary forme to tell you a little about the historical background. We are told that, in 1788, the first year ofEuropean settlement in Australia, the essential oil of Eucalyptus piperita was distilled and used medicinally as a substitute for oil of peppermint. But it seems unlikely that the enterprise shown by those early settlers had any significant inftuence on the utilization or study of the country's plant products1 • It was not until 1852 that the distillation of essential oils was investigated seriously, and was later placed on a commercial basis, by a man named J oseph Bosisto, who set up a still, only a few miles from here, outside Melbourne. I t is not clear whether the credit for this action is due solely to Bosisto, because at about the same time a second, and very significant, character appeared on the scene. This was Ferdinand von Mueller, a German from Rostock, who became Government Botanist ofVictoria in 1853 and made a magnificant contribu tion to the botanical exploration of Australia and to the systematic study and description of the Australian ftora. -

The 1770 Landscape of Botany Bay, the Plants Collected by Banks and Solander and Rehabilitation of Natural Vegetation at Kurnell

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. -
26 Extreme Trees Pub 2020
Publication WSFNR-20-22C April 2020 Extreme Trees: Tallest, Biggest, Oldest Dr. Kim D. Coder, Professor of Tree Biology & Health Care / University Hill Fellow University of Georgia Warnell School of Forestry & Natural Resources Trees have a long relationship with people. They are both utility and amenity. Trees can evoke awe, mysticism, and reverence. Trees represent great public and private values. Trees most noticed and celebrated by people and communities are the one-tenth of one-percent of trees which approach the limits of their maximum size, reach, extent, and age. These singular, historic, culturally significant, and massive extreme trees become symbols and icons of life on Earth, and our role model in environmental stewardship and sustainability. What Is A Tree? Figure 1 is a conglomeration of definitions and concepts about trees from legal and word definitions in North America. For example, 20 percent of all definitions specifically state a tree is a plant. Concentrated in 63% of all descriptors for trees are four terms: plant, woody, single stem, and tall. If broad stem diameter, branching, and perennial growth habit concepts are added, 87% of all the descriptors are represented. At its most basic level, defining a tree is not species based, but is a structural definition. A tree is represented by a type of plant architecture recognizable by non-technical people. The most basic concepts for defining a tree are — a large, tall, woody, perennial plant with a single, unbranched, erect, self-supporting stem holding an elevated and distinct crown of branches, and which is greater than 10 feet in height and greater than 3 inches in diameter. -

SAIVILTEL JAYLOR Cocaamoe, 'Kuhia Khxn 1788-1850 This title may appear to indicate a somewhat more specialized held of science than those treated in some other chapters of this publication, but it may be justified in a centenary volume of the Royal Society of New South Wales, with its implications of the history of both the Society in particular, and of Australian science in general. Firstly, natural plant products, amongst which are included volatile or essential oils \\ ere among the first objects of enquiry by the more educated and speculative minds of the first European settlement at Port Jackson ; an enquiry which grew both with the geographical advance of colonization, and, with the efflux of time, with increase of scientific knowledge. Secondly, it was through the Royal 5ocietv of New South Wales that there was made public over the years a very considerable corpus of new knowledge on this subject; in the Societvs .lonrnal there are recorded over ioo papers in the field. Thirdly, as a result of these researches, organic chemists the world over have been given access to a number of unusual and mt crest ing chemical cOOl- pounds from thu Australian flora, which have initiated or given stimulus to nlanv research proj ects l"inally, a practical outcome of these investigations has been the establishment of an industry which for over a century has provided both local employment and export earnings for the nation. -
