Photographer: Jacqui Geux CURRENT CONSERVATION STATUS 2018 | Threatened – Nationally Critical DISTRIBUTION Indigenous. New Zealand: North Island (Bay of Plenty, Orokawa Bay). Common in Australia HABITAT Open coastal forest amongst grasses and boulders FLOWERING February THREATS Flower, Aongatete, Bay of Plenty. Photographer: Jacqui Geux Unknown. First collected from New Zealand in 1906 but those gatherings were misidentified as V. plebeia, it was subsequently rediscovered at the same location in 2010. However, a full survey for the species was not then made, and the identity of the gathering (and those made in 1906) was only confirmed in 2013. For these reasons the species is provisionally assigned ‘Data Deficient’ status. This threat status will need to be formally ratified by the New Zealand Vascular Plant Threat Listing panel. ETYMOLOGY veronica: Named after Saint Veronica, who gave Jesus her veil to wipe his brow as he carried the cross through Jerusalem, perhaps because the common name of this plant is ‘speedwell’. The name Veronica is often believed to derive from the Latin vera ‘truth’ and iconica ‘image’, but it is actually derived from the Macedonian name Berenice which means ‘bearer of victory’. calycina: From the Greek kalux (in Latin calyx) ‘case of a bud’ or ‘husk’, meaning having a persistent or well developed calyx MORE INFORMATION https://www.nzpcn.org.nz/flora/species/veronica-calycina/.

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.

  • Native Vascular Plant Taxa SWAFR
    SWAFR - IBRA - Native Vascular Plant Taxa Paul Gioia, Science and Conservation Division, Department of Parks and Wildlife Report generated on 22/06/2016 11:08:17 AM This analysis uses a pro tem definition of the SWAFR that served to define the study area. It was based on the collection of IBRA 6.1 bioregions most closely approximating the original definition of the Southwest Province by Beard (1980). Data for this report were derived from a snapshot taken from WAHERB on 18/05/2015 for Gioia & Hopper (2016) paper. Criteria for data extraction and analysis were: 1. All vascular plants 2. Species-rank names where the typical subspecies also existed were renamed to the typical subspecies to avoid counting duplicate taxa 3. Native vascular taxa with current names Note: 1. This report contains information generated from intersecting the supplied polygon layer LOCAL_SWFIBR with the point species occurrence layer WAHERB_FILT_NATIVE. 2. Endemism is calculated based on the records available to this analysis and is not necessarily authoritative.

    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.

    NEW ZEALAND THREAT CLASSIFICATION SERIES 22 Conservation status of New Zealand indigenous vascular plants, 2017 Peter J. de Lange, Jeremy R. Rolfe, John W. Barkla, Shannel P. Courtney, Paul D. Champion, Leon R. Perrie, Sarah M. Beadel, Kerry A. Ford, Ilse Breitwieser, Ines Schönberger, Rowan Hindmarsh-Walls, Peter B. Heenan and Kate Ladley Cover: Ramarama (Lophomyrtus bullata, Myrtaceae) is expected to be severely affected by myrtle rust Austropuccinia( psidii) over the coming years. Because of this, it and all other indigenous myrtle species have been designated as Threatened in this assessment. Some of them, including ramarama, have been placed in the worst Threatened category of Nationally Critical. Photo: Jeremy Rolfe. New Zealand Threat Classification Series is a scientific monograph series presenting publications related to the New Zealand Threat Classification System (NZTCS). Most will be lists providing NZTCS status of members of a plant or animal group (e.g. algae, birds, spiders), each assessed once every 5 years. After each five-year cycle there will be a report analysing and summarising trends across all groups for that listing cycle. From time to time the manual that defines the categories, criteria and process for the NZTCS will be reviewed. Publications in this series are considered part of the formal international scientific literature. This report is available from the departmental website in pdf form. Titles are listed in our catalogue on the website, refer www.doc.govt.nz under Publications, then Series. © Copyright May 2018, New Zealand Department of Conservation ISSN 2324–1713 (web PDF) ISBN 978–1–98–85146147–1 (web PDF) This report was prepared for publication by the Publishing Team; editing and layout by Lynette Clelland.

  • An Inventory of the Vascular Flora of the Anglesea and Aireys Inlet Area
    An inventory of the vascular flora of the Anglesea and Aireys Inlet area, extending to Torquay on Tertiary and Quaternary sediments, eastern Otway Plain Bioregion, Victoria Geoff W. Carr, Ecology Australia Pty Ltd., 88 B Station Street, Fairfield, Vic 3078 ([email protected]) Version 4, 3 September 2017 Introduction This inventory of the vascular flora of the Anglesea-Aireys Inlet area, extending to Torquay in the eastern Otway Plain Bioregion, was commenced about 10 years ago. Only the vascular flora is dealt with because the non-vascular flora is poorly documented, that is surveyed and collected. Similarly the fungi have been neglected. The purposes of the inventory are to: • compile as complete a list of the indigenous and exotic flora as possible, updated as appropriate when additional taxa are recorded • document and highlight the extraordinary species richness of the indigenous flora; there are for example 124 indigenous orchid species (Orchidaceae) which comprises 31% of the Victorian orchid flora (VicFlora; Backhouse, Kosky, Rouse and Turner 2016; Forster and McDonald 2009) and 71 indigenous sedge species (Cyperaceae) comprising 40% of the family in Victoria (see VicFlora). Statistics for the flora are given in Table 1 • provide a checklist of species/taxa as an aid for plant identification in vegetation survey and quadrat data collection in the region covered • provide a checklist of environmental weed species of management concern, or potential management concern, in the region • highlight the local and regional endemism in the flora, as well as the suite of species or taxa that are as yet undescribed (mostly recognised as a result of the taxonomic research undertaken by G.
