  • South West Queensland QLD Page 1 of 89 21-Jan-11 Species List for NRM Region South West Queensland, Queensland
    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.

  • A Regional Examination of the Mistletoe Host Species Inventory
    354 Cunninghamia 8(3): 2004 Downey, Examination of the mistletoe host inventory A regional examination of the mistletoe host species inventory Paul Owen Downey Centre for Plant Biodiversity Research, CSIRO Plant Industry, GPO Box 1600, Canberra, ACT 2601, AUSTRALIA. Present Address Institute of Conservation Biology, School of Biological Sciences, University of Wollongong, Wollongong, NSW 2522 AUSTRALIA. [email protected] Abstract: Downey (1998) collated an inventory of mistletoe host species based on herbaria records for every aerial mistletoe species (families Loranthaceae and Viscaceae) in Australia. In this paper the representative nature of those host lists is examined in an extensive field survey of mistletoes and their host species in south-eastern New South Wales (including Australian Capital Territory). Four new host species not in the 1998 inventory, and eight new mistletoe-host combinations (i.e. a previously recorded host but not for that particular mistletoe species) were collected. These new records were distributed throughout the survey area. Interestingly, these new host-mistletoe combinations were for mistletoe species that were well represented in the national inventory (i.e. with many herbarium collections and numerous host species). The initial inventory was incomplete, at least for south-eastern New South Wales, indicating the need for (i) more targeted surveys similar to this one, and/or (ii) regular updates of the host inventory based on voucher specimens. A possible reasons why information on host-mistletoe combinations is incomplete may be that such combinations may be dynamic (i.e. mistletoe species may be expanding their suite of potential hosts, either fortuitously or as result of evolutionary pressures).

  • Methods to Manage Mistletoe
    Methods to Manage Mistletoe A Landholder’s Guide © Southern New England Landcare Armidale, July 2008. Acknowledgements This booklet is a product of the Methods to Manage Mistletoe Project initiated and run by numerous landholders from the Southern New England region. Thank you to Dr Ajoy Kumar Kar for preparing the contents of this booklet, and Kàren Forge–Zirkler for facilitating the project steering committee. Associate Professor Nick Reid and Mr Jim Fittler (University of New England), and Mr Mark Allen assisted the landholder group undertake the project and the research therein, and their knowledge and experience is gratefully acknowledged. Meat & Livestock Australia are gratefully acknowledged for their Producer Initiated Research and Development funding (Project N10), which allowed the project to take place. Thanks go to the Border Rivers Gwydir Catchment Management Authority for funding to produce this booklet, and to Mr Greg Steenbeeke for providing advice regarding Native Vegetation legislation. Cover photo by Jan Gaudron. Layout & design by Kàren Forge–Zirkler. Disclaimers Although various chemical products and methods are mentioned in this publication, this should not be taken as an endorsement. Note that the Native Vegetation Act 2003 in NSW does not allow the removal of mistletoes as a permitted activity, since all mistletoes in NSW are native plants. Mistletoes are also a vital resource for several threatened species in certain parts of the state. Therefore wilful damage of mistletoes may also contravene the Threatened Species Conservation Act 1997. Landowners in NSW are advised to consult their local CMA, and if necessary, seek legal advice, when planning vegetation interventions involving mistletoe on their farms.
