Acacia mearnsii is the most widespread and important weed but also forms the basis of an important industry. A. dealbata, and to a lesser extent A. decurrens are also problems. All belong to the Section Botrycephalae of the sub-genus Heterophyllum. Short term control is achieved locally by removing plants, and by using herbicides, but seed-feeding control agents may provide an acceptable solution in the long term. Larvae of Bruchophagus acaciae (Cameron) (Hymenoptera: Eurytomidae) develop in the seeds of acacias. It was described from New Zealand, but is an Australian species. We explore whether B. acaciae has a role as a con- trol agent for acacias in South Africa. Seed was collected from 28 Australian species of Acacia growing in New Zealand. Attack was restricted to four of the seven species with- in the Section Botrycephalae, and two cases of attack on Acacia rubida (Section Phyllodineae; n=9). Apart from a wasp reared from one seed, A.

  • The Golden Wattle Bud Galling Wasp
    The Golden Wattle A natural enemy of GOLDEN Bud Galling Wasp WATTLE (Acacia pycnantha) (Trichilogaster sp.) in South Africa 13 DOSSIERS ON BIOLOGICAL CONTROL AGENTS AVAILABLE TO AID ALIEN PLANT CONTROL Description The bud-galling wasp on golden wattle superficially resembles its counterpart on long-leaved wattle, however, in this species the females are more uniformly yellow-brown in colour and have dark brown eyes. Life Cycle The life cycle of the bud-galling wasp on golden wattle is very similar to that of the long-leaved wattle bud-galling wasp. Adult females live for only 3-4 days laying large numbers of eggs in the newly-developed flower buds, and occasionally in vegetative buds, of golden wattle. The eggs hatch in May and chemicals secreted by the young grubs induce bud galling. The grubs live and feed entirely within the galls, pupating when the galls are at their largest. Adults emerge and are active, laying eggs in early summer (November - December). Feeding Damage Galls on golden wattle are usually symmetrically round and born on Adult female gall wasp stalks, making them quite distinct in appearance when compared to those on long-leaved wattle which are more asymmetrical and are tightly attached to the stems of their host plant. The tiny lumps on the surface of the galls are the remains of the undeveloped flowers. Branches that are galled do not produce seeds. Impact on Golden Wattle The introduction of the bud-galling wasp onto golden wattle has been at the most opportune time. The weed still has a limited distribution and has only formed dense stands in a few localities.

  • Golden Wattle - Acacia Pycnantha
    Golden Wattle - Acacia pycnantha Discription Where golden wattle has become naturalised beyond its native range in Australia, it is most frequently found growing along roadsides and in nearby woodlands. In Tasmania it grows in sandy coastal sites and in drier areas in the north-east of the state. Uses Traditional - Women would collect seed pods from the trees when ripe, separate seed, parch by a fire, pound and ground into a flour. Mix water with flour to make a dough. Place in fire coals/ash to get a Damper. Green pods fully formed were also lightly roasted and seed eaten. Common - By roasting the raw wattle seed until it pops, similar to pop corn. This new unique flavor has many uses, coffee-like beverages (caffeine free), essences, beer, baking, confectionery, dairy, sweets, confectionry and marinades. Grow your own If you would like to grow your own at home they are available from a range of stockist listed below https://www.stateflora.sa.gov.au/home http://www.provenance.net.au/index.html Fun Fact Ruby Salt Bush Enchylaena tomentosa Discription Ruby Saltbush is a low shrub growing under a meter tall. Most varieties act as ground covers and can mat out and cover an area 1m wide. It has small, fleshy, cylindrical leaves which represent a succulent. The leaves are mid- green to grey and covered in fine hairs. Flowering on and off throughout the year, with the flowers being very small and quite insignificant. However, these small flowers develop into succulent, berry like edible fruits. Uses Traditional - Ruby Saltbush is a quaint succulent bearing small berries with a crisp, salty-sweet flavour.

  • Synoptic Overview of Exotic Acacia, Senegalia and Vachellia (Caesalpinioideae, Mimosoid Clade, Fabaceae) in Egypt
    plants Article Synoptic Overview of Exotic Acacia, Senegalia and Vachellia (Caesalpinioideae, Mimosoid Clade, Fabaceae) in Egypt Rania A. Hassan * and Rim S. Hamdy Botany and Microbiology Department, Faculty of Science, Cairo University, Giza 12613, Egypt; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Abstract: For the first time, an updated checklist of Acacia, Senegalia and Vachellia species in Egypt is provided, focusing on the exotic species. Taking into consideration the retypification of genus Acacia ratified at the Melbourne International Botanical Congress (IBC, 2011), a process of reclassification has taken place worldwide in recent years. The review of Acacia and its segregates in Egypt became necessary in light of the available information cited in classical works during the last century. In Egypt, various taxa formerly placed in Acacia s.l., have been transferred to Acacia s.s., Acaciella, Senegalia, Parasenegalia and Vachellia. The present study is a contribution towards clarifying the nomenclatural status of all recorded species of Acacia and its segregate genera. This study recorded 144 taxa (125 species and 19 infraspecific taxa). Only 14 taxa (four species and 10 infraspecific taxa) are indigenous to Egypt (included now under Senegalia and Vachellia). The other 130 taxa had been introduced to Egypt during the last century. Out of the 130 taxa, 79 taxa have been recorded in literature. The focus of this study is the remaining 51 exotic taxa that have been traced as living species in Egyptian gardens or as herbarium specimens in Egyptian herbaria. The studied exotic taxa are accommodated under Acacia s.s. (24 taxa), Senegalia (14 taxa) and Vachellia (13 taxa).

  • Warrandyte's Wattles the Flowers of Warrandyte's Wattles Vary in Colour from Creamy-Yellow to Deep Gold
    Warrandyte's Wattles The flowers of Warrandyte's wattles vary in colour from creamy-yellow to deep gold. Only two species have true adult leaves (Black Wattle and Silver Wattle). A ll others develop phyllodes; flattened leaf-stalks that look like and function like leaves. Most flower from late winter to spring. They can be found in a wide range of vegetation communities, from the riverbanks to the ridges. Several other species of wattle from other parts of Australia grow in the Warrandyte bush. These are garden Gold-dust Wattle Acacia acinacea escapes that have become environmental BlackWattle Acacia mearnsii weeds.You can help prevent their spread by only planting wattles indigenous to our area. Gold-dust Wattle Acacia acinacea Open spreading shrub to 1.5m. July-Oct. Small ovate to oblong phyllodes on arching branches, profuse flowers along stems. Thin-leaf Wattle Acacia aculeatissima Prostrate or low sprawling shrub to 30cm. Thin-leafWattle Acacia aculeatissima June-Dec. Prickly phyllodes usually point down stems at odd angles, flowers along stems. Silver Wattle Acacia dealbata Tree to 15m.July-Nov. Blueish-green ferny leaves, dense flower sprays followed by purplish seed pods. B la c k w o o d Acacia melanoxylon Spreading Wattle Acacia genistifolia Open erect shrub to 2.5m.Aug-Oct. and occasionally in autumn Silver W attle Acacia dealbata Long narrow prickly phyllodes, pale flowers along stems. Lightwood Acacia implexa Small tree to 8m. Dec-Mar. Long dark green sickle-shaped phyllodes, flowers in sprays, develops corky bark with age. BlackWattle Acacia mearnsii Tree to 10m. Sept-Dec.
