Jervis Bay Territory Page 1 of 50 21-Jan-11 Species List for NRM Region (Blank), Jervis Bay Territory
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. All species names have been confirmed as valid species names, but it is not possible to confirm all species locations. -

Ecology of Pyrmont Peninsula 1788 - 2008
Transformations: Ecology of Pyrmont peninsula 1788 - 2008 John Broadbent Transformations: Ecology of Pyrmont peninsula 1788 - 2008 John Broadbent Sydney, 2010. Ecology of Pyrmont peninsula iii Executive summary City Council’s ‘Sustainable Sydney 2030’ initiative ‘is a vision for the sustainable development of the City for the next 20 years and beyond’. It has a largely anthropocentric basis, that is ‘viewing and interpreting everything in terms of human experience and values’(Macquarie Dictionary, 2005). The perspective taken here is that Council’s initiative, vital though it is, should be underpinned by an ecocentric ethic to succeed. This latter was defined by Aldo Leopold in 1949, 60 years ago, as ‘a philosophy that recognizes[sic] that the ecosphere, rather than any individual organism[notably humans] is the source and support of all life and as such advises a holistic and eco-centric approach to government, industry, and individual’(http://dictionary.babylon.com). Some relevant considerations are set out in Part 1: General Introduction. In this report, Pyrmont peninsula - that is the communities of Pyrmont and Ultimo – is considered as a microcosm of the City of Sydney, indeed of urban areas globally. An extensive series of early views of the peninsula are presented to help the reader better visualise this place as it was early in European settlement (Part 2: Early views of Pyrmont peninsula). The physical geography of Pyrmont peninsula has been transformed since European settlement, and Part 3: Physical geography of Pyrmont peninsula describes the geology, soils, topography, shoreline and drainage as they would most likely have appeared to the first Europeans to set foot there. -
Nomen Novum), Preferred a Spelling, It Is a Case Touching the What Ticklish Question of Defining More Exactly Is a Different Name in the Nomenclatural
The genus Lagenophora (Compositae) Angel+L. Cabrera Museo de la Plata, Argentina The under the genus Lagenophora was first described by Cassini name Lagenifera (in Bull. Soc. Philomat. 12, 1816, 199) withthe following diagnosis: la tribus le calendula ‘Ce genre, de des astérées, comprend magellanicá, Willd. et le bellis la stipitata, Labill. Son principal caractère reside dans cypsèle lagéniforme, com- au en col primée, prolongée sommet un qui ne porte point d’aigrette. Les fleurons sont mâles’. Two in the he the years later, same periodical (1818, p. 34) changed name Lagenifera without comment into Lagenophora, the latter being simply the latinized Greek equivalent of authors have the Lagenifera. Later unanimously accepted name Lagenophora, although Davis pointed out that Lagenifera has priority. Only recently Backer & Bakhuizen van Brink have the den Jr (Flora of Java 2, 1965, 381) accepted name Lagenifera, pointing that this the that be out is legitimate generic name, adding Lagenophora is to treated as an etymological variant. This would imply that under Lagenifera no new combinations are necessary. it is Cassini in Though perfectly true that 1818 not intended to give a new name but latinized Greek border (nomen novum), preferred a spelling, it is a case touching the what ticklish question of defining more exactly is a different name in the nomenclatural sense. and To settle this, to preserve customary usage, Bullock has recently proposed (Taxon the and is here 15, 1966, 75 —76) to conserve the name, at least spelling Lagenophora this adhered to. Davis in As to typification 1950 proposed as the type species Bellis stipitata Labill. -

The new combination Solenogyne christensenii (Petrie) de Lange, Jian Wang ter & Barkla comb. nov. is validated for a New Zealand species originally published as Abrotanella christensenii Petrie. The species is described, illustrated and differentiated from similar and related taxa. The species is seriously threatened, being known with certainty only from the South Island of New Zealand where there is one extant population in Otago, though the species was also known historically from the type locality, Hanmer Plain, North Canterbury.

Phylogenetic relationships in Lagenophora were inferred using nuclear and plastid DNA regions. Reconstruction of spatio-temporal evolution was estimated using parsimony, Bayesian inference and likelihood methods, a Bayesian relaxed molecular clock and ancestral area and habitat reconstruc- tions. Our results support a narrow taxonomic concept of Lagenophora including only a core group of species with one clade diversifying in New Zealand and another in South America. The split between the New Zealand and South American Lagenophora dates from 11.2 Mya [6.1–17.4 95% highest posterior density (HPD)]. -
On the Ecology, Distribution and Conservation Status of Vittadinia Blackii (Asteraceae) in Australia
SHORT COMMUNICATION On the ecology, distribution and conservation status of Vittadinia blackii (Asteraceae) in Australia I.R.K. Sluiter and K.R Sluiter1 Centre for Environmental Management, School of Science and Engineering, University of Ballarat, Mt. Helen, VIC 3353, AUSTRALIA 1Mallee Catchment Management Authority, Mildura, VIC 3500, AUSTRALIA Abstract: Distribution records of Vittadinia blackii (family Asteraceae) across southern Australia show the species has a strong and moderately common presence across a broad range of climate zones and sites in South Australia, but a much more restricted occurrence in other mainland state’s. Using the IUCN criteria, adopted by the separate state regulatory authorities vested with listing threatened species, Vittadinia blackii is considered to be not threatened in South Australia, but endangered in Western Australia, Victoria and New South Wales. Cunninghamia (2011) 12(1): 1–5 Introduction southern and central Australia (Burbidge 1982). Two other closely related genera, Eurybiopsis and Camptacra, are found Vittadinia blackii N. Burb. (family Asteraceae) is a in northern Australia (Burbidge 1982). Detailed accounts of compact perennial sub-shrub growing to approximately the ecology and/or seed biology of representatives of the 20–40cm high (Burbidge 1969) (Figure 1). It is readily genus are restricted to Vittadinia muelleri (Willis & Groves distinguishable in the field from other taxa within the 1991; Trémont 1995) and Vittadinia cuneata (Facelli et al. genus by its narrow, dark green grooved leaves (the only 2005). In a study of the phenology of six understorey herbs species with similar leaf type – Vittadinia muelleri – occurs in the dry sub-humid climates of Tasmania and the eastern Australian mainland from East Gippsland in Victoria through New South Wales into southern Queensland, with no over-lapping range with Vittadinia blackii).
