Darwinia Hortiorum (Myrtaceae: Chamelaucieae), a New Species from the Darling Range, Western Australia
K.R.Nuytsia Thiele, 20: 277–281 Darwinia (2010) hortiorum (Myrtaceae: Chamelaucieae), a new species 277 Darwinia hortiorum (Myrtaceae: Chamelaucieae), a new species from the Darling Range, Western Australia Kevin R. Thiele Western Australian Herbarium, Department of Environment and Conservation, Locked Bag 104, Bentley Delivery Centre, Western Australia 6983 Email: [email protected] Abstract Thiele, K.R. Darwinia hortiorum (Myrtaceae: Chamelaucieae), a new species from the Darling Range, Western Australia. Nuytsia 20: 277–281 (2010). The distinctive, new, rare species Darwinia hortiorum is described, illustrated and discussed. Uniquely in the genus it has strongly curved- zygomorphic flowers with the sigmoid styles arranged so that they group towards the centre of the head-like inflorescences. Introduction Darwinia Rudge comprises c. 90 species, mostly from the south-west of Western Australia with c. 15 species in New South Wales, Victoria and South Australia. Phylogenetic analyses (M. Barrett, unpublished) have shown that the genus is polyphyletic, with distinct eastern and western Australian clades. Along with the related genera Actinodium Schauer, Chamelaucium Desf., Homoranthus A.Cunn. ex Schauer and Pileanthus Labill., the Darwinia clades are nested in a paraphyletic Verticordia DC. Many undescribed species of Darwinia are known in Western Australia, and these are being progressively described (Rye 1983; Marchant & Keighery 1980; Marchant 1984; Keighery & Marchant 2002; Keighery 2009). A significant number of taxa in the genus are narrowly endemic or rare and are of high conservation significance. Although taxonomic reassignment of the Western Australian species of Darwinia may be required in the future, resolving the status of these undescribed species and describing them under their current genus helps provide information for conservation assessments and survey. -

Bindaring Park Bassendean - Fauna Assessment
Bindaring Park Bassendean - Fauna Assessment Wetland habitat within Bindaring Park study area (Rob Browne-Cooper) Prepared for: Coterra Environment Level 3, 25 Prowse Street, WEST PERTH, WA 6005 Prepared by: Robert Browne-Cooper and Mike Bamford M.J. & A.R. Bamford Consulting Ecologists 23 Plover Way KINGSLEY WA 6026 6th April 2017 Bindaring Park - Fauna Assessment Summary Bamford Consulting Ecologists was commissioned by Coterra Environment to conduct a Level 1 fauna assessment (desktop review and site inspection) of Bindaring Park in Bassendean (the study area). The fauna survey is required to provide information on the ecological values for the Town of Bassendean’s Stage 2 Bindaring Wetland Concept Plan Development. This plan include developing design options (within wetland area) to enhance ecological values and habitat. The purpose of this report is to provide information on the fauna values of the habitat, particularly for significant species, and an overview of the ecological function of the site within the local and regional context. This assessment focuses on vertebrate fauna associated with the wetland and surrounding parkland vegetation within the study area, with consideration for connectivity with the Swan River. An emphasis is placed on locally-occurring conservation significant species and their habitat. Relevant species include Carnaby’s Black-Cockatoo, Forest Red-tailed Black-Cockatoo, and other local native species such as the Water Rat or Rakali. The fauna investigations were based on a desktop assessment and a field survey conducted in February 2017. The desktop study identified 180 vertebrate fauna species as potentially occurring in the Bindaring Park study area (see Table 3 and Appendix 5): five fish, 6 frogs, 20 reptiles, 134 birds, 8 native and 7 introduced mammals.
