  • Changes for Rainforest Trees and Shrubs (2006, 2009)
    Changes for Rainforest Trees and Shrubs (2006, 2009) Comment on the genera Syzygium, Anetholea, Waterhousea and Acmena There is continued debate amongst botanists as to whether the genera Anetholea, Waterhousea and Acmena should be included in the mega-genus Syzygium. In this publication we have included these three genera in Syzygium; however, many botanists do not think that on present knowledge this position should be continued. Therefore it is suggested that the species be retained in their separate genera, i.e., Anetholea anisata, Waterhousea floribunda and Acmena hemilampra, Acmena ingens and Acmena smithii. Previous names are listed below for users who wish to continue using the separate genera. Note, all names are valid, therefore until there is consensus amongst botanists and State Herbaria either of the names for a taxon can be used. Name changes etc. Page 24: Add: WTRf for Pararchidendron pruinosum Page 31: Name change: Zieria species ‘Brolga Park’ now Zieria bifida Page 33: Name change: Zieria species ‘Binjour’ now Zieria vagans Pages 30, 52 & 95; Add: Springbrook to distribution for Alloxylon pinnatum Page 34: Add: CTRf for Acradenia euodiiformis Page 36: Name change: Erythrina species ‘Croftby’ now Erythrina numerosa Page 45: Spelling correction: Mackinlaya macrosciadea Pages 53 & 69: Name change: Senna odorata now Senna barronfieldii Pages 89, 91 & 115: Name change: Hymenanthera dentata now Melicytus dentatus Page 121: Callistemon salignus has been included in the genus Melaleuca (as Melaleuca saligna), however, this change has not been accepted by all botanists. Therefore, continue to use the name Callistemon salignus and include Melaleuca saligna as a synonym until the position of the species is clarified and its position more widely accepted by botanists.

  • Vegetation and Floristics of Kwiambal
    351 Vegetation and floristics of Kwiambal National Park and surrounds, Ashford, New South Wales John T. Hunter, Jennifer Kingston and Peter Croft John T. Hunter1, Jennifer Kingston2 and Peter Croft2 (175 Kendall Rd, Invergowrie, NSW 2350, 2Glen Innes District National Parks and Wildlife Service, Glen Innes, NSW 2370) 1999. Vegetation and floristics of Kwiambal National Park and surrounds, Ashford, New South Wales. Cunninghamia 6(2): 351–378 The vegetation of Kwiambal National Park and surrounds, 30 km north-west of Ashford (29°07'S, 150°58'E) in the Inverell Shire on the North Western Slopes, is described. Eight plant communities are defined based on flexible UPGMA analysis of relative abundance scores of vascular plant taxa. These communities are mapped based on ground truthing, air photo interpretation and geological substrate. All communities are of woodland structure and most are dominated by Callitris glaucophylla, Eucalyptus melanophloia and Eucalyptus dealbata. Communities are: 1) Mixed Stand Woodland (Dry Rainforest), 2) Granite Woodland, 3) Metasediment Woodland, 4) Riverine, 5) Metabasalt Woodland, 6) Granite Open Woodland, 7) Limestone Woodland, and 8) Alluvial Woodland. Many of the taxa (407 species were recorded) show phytogeographic affinities with western south-east Queensland flora. This is also true of the communities defined. Five ROTAP listed species have been found in the Park: Acacia williamsiana, Astrotricha roddii, Euphorbia sarcostemmoides, Olearia gravis and Thesium australe, three of these are listed on the NSW Threatened Species Conservation Act (1995). Another ten taxa are considered to be at their geographic limit or disjunct in their distribution. 17% are exotic in origin. Introduction Kwiambal National Park is approximately 130 km north-west of Glen Innes and 30 km north-west of Ashford (29°07'S, 150°58'E) in the Shire of Inverell on the North Western Slopes of NSW (Fig.

  • Species Selection Guidelines Tree Species Selection
    Species selection guidelines Tree species selection This section of the plan provides guidance around the selection of species for use as street trees in the Sunshine Coast Council area and includes region-wide street tree palettes for specific functions and settings. More specific guidance on signature and natural character palettes and lists of trees suitable for use in residential streets for each of the region's 27 Local plan areas are contained within Part B – Street tree strategies of the plan. Street tree palettes will be periodically reviewed as an outcome of street tree trials, the development of new species varieties and cultivars, or the advent of new pest or disease threats that may alter the performance and reliability of currently listed species. The plan is to be used in association with the Sunshine Coast Council Open Space Landscape Infrastructure Manual where guidance for tree stock selection (in line with AS 2303–2018 Tree stock for landscape use) and tree planting and maintenance specifications can be found. For standard advanced tree planting detail, maintenance specifications and guidelines for the selection of tree stock see also the Sunshine Coast Open Space Landscape Infrastructure Manual – Embellishments – Planting Landscape). The manual's Plant Index contains a comprehensive list of all plant species deemed suitable for cultivation in Sunshine Coast amenity landscapes. For specific species information including expected dimensions and preferred growing conditions see Palettes – Planting – Planting index). 94 Sunshine Coast Street Tree Master Plan 2018 Part A Tree nomenclature Strategic outcomes The names of trees in this document follow the • Trees are selected by suitably qualified and International code of botanical nomenclature experienced practitioners (2012) with genus and species given, followed • Tree selection is locally responsive and by the plant's common name.
