Muelleria Vol 32, 2014
Muelleria 36: 22–50 Published online in advance of the print edition, 16 March 2018. A passion for plants: The botanical contribution of collector P.J. Murphy Susan Kruss Collaborative Research Centre in Australian History, Federation University, Ballarat, Victoria. email: [email protected] Abstract Introduction ‘Collector: Murphy, P.J.’ listed on the The contribution of women to Australian botany has not yet been fully online Australasian Virtual Herbarium, explored. Pat Murphy’s contribution was significant both in her local area collected plant specimens from and through the 1138 specimens she collected that are now held at the the early 1980s to 2006. Fifteen specimens were sent to the National National Herbarium, Royal Botanic Gardens Victoria (MEL). Pat’s story Herbarium of Victoria during her extends the history of collectors and collecting beyond the colonial era lifetime, and the remaining collection into the twentieth and twenty-first centuries, a period as yet only lightly of 1123 specimens was donated to touched on in the history of botany. One advantage of examining a more the Herbarium in 2007. Who was P.J. recent collector is the availability of people who knew Pat and whose Murphy, why did she collect, and what can be discovered by examining memories of her can be accessed through oral history interviews. The Field her collection of specimens? Much Naturalists’ Club of Ballarat (FNCB) provided the context for Pat’s learning of the information in this article is about botany and her involvement in collecting (Fig. 1a,b). I was able to derived from the minutes of the Field Naturalists’ Club of Ballarat (FNCB) and from interviews with her husband, Bill Murphy, and members of FNCB. -
Ecology of Pyrmont Peninsula 1788 - 2008
Transformations: Ecology of Pyrmont peninsula 1788 - 2008 John Broadbent Transformations: Ecology of Pyrmont peninsula 1788 - 2008 John Broadbent Sydney, 2010. Ecology of Pyrmont peninsula iii Executive summary City Council’s ‘Sustainable Sydney 2030’ initiative ‘is a vision for the sustainable development of the City for the next 20 years and beyond’. It has a largely anthropocentric basis, that is ‘viewing and interpreting everything in terms of human experience and values’(Macquarie Dictionary, 2005). The perspective taken here is that Council’s initiative, vital though it is, should be underpinned by an ecocentric ethic to succeed. This latter was defined by Aldo Leopold in 1949, 60 years ago, as ‘a philosophy that recognizes[sic] that the ecosphere, rather than any individual organism[notably humans] is the source and support of all life and as such advises a holistic and eco-centric approach to government, industry, and individual’(http://dictionary.babylon.com). Some relevant considerations are set out in Part 1: General Introduction. In this report, Pyrmont peninsula - that is the communities of Pyrmont and Ultimo – is considered as a microcosm of the City of Sydney, indeed of urban areas globally. An extensive series of early views of the peninsula are presented to help the reader better visualise this place as it was early in European settlement (Part 2: Early views of Pyrmont peninsula). The physical geography of Pyrmont peninsula has been transformed since European settlement, and Part 3: Physical geography of Pyrmont peninsula describes the geology, soils, topography, shoreline and drainage as they would most likely have appeared to the first Europeans to set foot there. -

The 28 study of EVEs, coined paleovirology, provides important insights into virus evolution. The 29 Caulimoviridae is the most common group of EVEs in plants, although their presence has often been 30 overlooked in plant genome studies. -

I attended a fern botanising course in the Cairngorms in Scotland a few years ago and there learnt the immeasurable educational value of seeing plants in their natural habitat. As my Horticultural career progressed, my focus turned more towards Tropical plants and I became employed at the glasshouses in Kew Gardens. At this point, the world of Tropical ferns was opened up to me and a whole new phase of my long-standing interest was born. It therefore seemed natural to apply for a travel bursary to see Tropical ferns in-situ, and take the opportunity to delve more deeply into the entire world of Pteridophytes. Pteridophytes of all shapes and sizes form a significant part of the flora in ecosystems all over the world, and can be found from sea level to high mountains. There are considered to be roughly 13,000 species of fern today, and despite lacking flowers, the diversity of their appearance is astonishing. -

Resource Use by the Eastern Grey Kangaroo and the Black Wallaby in a Managed Remnant Woodland Community
Resource Use by the Eastern Grey Kangaroo and the Black Wallaby in a Managed Remnant Woodland Community Ferdinand (Fred). G. de Munk BSc. (Hons). MSc. Dip.Ed (Melb) G.Dip.Ed.Admin. (Deakin) A Thesis Presented for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy School of Ecology and Environment Deakin University June 1999 CANDIDATES CERTIFICATION The work in this thesis is solely the work of the candidate except for the following: The histological preparation of plant specimens for the reference herbarium was done by Ms. Carole Hair of RMIT. Honours and third year students from RMIT Environmental Science assisted in the collection of faecal pellets and biomass material from the Coranderrk Reserve. Assistance with the identification of vascular plants was provided by the horticulture department staff of the Healesville Sanctuary. No material in this thesis has been accepted for a degree or a diploma by any other institution. This thesis may be made available for consultation, loan and limited copying in accordance with the Copyright Act 1968. The author verifies that the thesis does not contain more than 100,000 words. PLAIN LANGUAGE SUMMARY This work studies the interactions and relationships that exist between Eastern Grey Kangaroos and Black Wallabies in their utilisation of spatial and trophic resources in a managed remnant woodland community. The thesis provides a closer understanding of the way in which these species impact upon their habitats. The Coranderrk Reserve, near Healesville in eastern Victoria, Australia was the study site. A floristic analysis of the communities of the study site was conducted. This consisted of plant biomass measurements, estimates of plant abundance and cover determinations. -
