  • Acacia Siculiformis
    Threatened Species Link www.tas.gov.au SPECIES MANAGEMENT PROFILE Acacia siculiformis dagger wattle Group: Magnoliophyta (flowering plants), Magnoliopsida (dicots), Fabales, Fabaceae Status: Threatened Species Protection Act 1995: rare Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999: Not listed Endemic Found in Tasmania and elsewhere Status: Acacia siculiformis (dagger wattle) is a shrub which in Tasmania occurs near watercourses and in dry, rocky situations within sclerophyll forest. It mostly occurs in a band from the centre of the State to the East Coast but unvouchered records from the north east require verification. About 30 subpopulations have been recorded though fewer than 20 are supported by herbarium specimens. Available data suggests that subpopulations are small, with the total number of plants likely to be considerably fewer than 5,000 with an area of occupancy less than 5 ha, putting the species at risk from inadvertent or chance events. Other threats include dam construction, and while forestry operations may result in minor losses, the associated disturbance may trigger recruitment from soil-stored seed. The species would benefit from management of cumulative losses, and disturbance that allows recruitment leading to supplementation of the soil seed store. No species management profile is currently available for this species. Check the Further Information section on this page and any relevant Activity Advice.​ Key Points Important: Is this species in your area? Do you need a permit? Ensure you’ve covered all the issues by checking the Planning Ahead page. Important: Different threatened species may have different requirements. For any activity you are considering, read the Activity Advice pages for background information and important advice about managing around the needs of multiple threatened species.

  • Chapter 5. Australian Capital Territory
    5. Australian Capital Territory Introduction Mark Lintermans, Environment ACT The Australian Capital Territory (ACT) is the smallest of Australia’s States and Territories (235,600 ha) but has a diverse range of aquatic habitats ranging from small subalpine bogs to the larger riverine systems such as the Murrumbidgee River. However the geographic location and altitude of the ACT preclude some wetland types which are common in other States and the Northern Territory. For example the inland location of the ACT means that there are no marine, estuarine or brackish wetlands. Similarly, with the location of the ACT in the south-eastern highlands, large lowland floodplain systems are also absent. The first substantial review of aquatic ecosystems in the ACT was conducted by Hogg and Wicks (1989). This review dealt mainly with lotic systems and did not attempt to cover the high altitude wetlands such as fens and bogs. Subsequently Evans and Keenan (1993) reviewed the published and unpublished literature on high altitude wetlands in the ACT. The ACT is located within two biogeographic regions defined by Thackway and Cresswell (1995) as the Australian Alps, and the South Eastern Highlands, with the majority of its important wetlands being found in the Australian Alps bioregion. Most of the significant high altitude wetlands of the ACT are located in the Cotter and Gudgenby River catchments. The Cotter River catchment lies between the Brindabella Range in the west, the Bimberi and Scabby Ranges in the south and the Cotter/Gudgenby divide in the east. The tops of these ranges form the western and southern borders of the ACT.

  • ACT, Australian Capital Territory
    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.

Indeed over recent months members of CBC have been involved in carrying out repairs to Boltons Hill Hut. At its last meeting the KHA addressed a couple of matters which are likely to be of interest to our membership. The Association's membership decided to award three life memberships in recognition of the work and support provided by three members all od whom also belong to our club. On behalf of the Club. I would like to congratulate Reet Vallak and Bob and Sybil Story - it is great to see such labours recognised. On another matter, the KHA is to work with the ACT Parks and Conservation Service in maintaining a number of huts in the Namadgi National Park- As a starting point, the Association is conducting three maintenance weekends on Frank's Hut just of the Old Boboyan Road. The scheduled weekends are: 21" 22nd of May. 18-19th of June and 2-3rd of July.

DEPARTMENT OP THE INTEKIOR, UNITED STATES GEOLOGICAL SURVEY, Washington, D. C. , March 9, 190Jh SIR: I have the honor to transmit herewith, for publication as a bulletin, a gazetteer of West Virginia! Very respectfully, HENRY GANNETT, Geogwvpher. Hon. CHARLES D. WALCOTT, Director United States Geological Survey. 3 A GAZETTEER OF WEST VIRGINIA. HENRY GANNETT. DESCRIPTION OF THE STATE. The State of West Virginia was cut off from Virginia during the civil war and was admitted to the Union on June 19, 1863. As orig­ inally constituted it consisted of 48 counties; subsequently, in 1866, it was enlarged by the addition -of two counties, Berkeley and Jeffer­ son, which were also detached from Virginia. The boundaries of the State are in the highest degree irregular. Starting at Potomac River at Harpers Ferry,' the line follows the south bank of the Potomac to the Fairfax Stone, which was set to mark the headwaters of the North Branch of Potomac River; from this stone the line runs due north to Mason and Dixon's line, i. e., the southern boundary of Pennsylvania; thence it follows this line west to the southwest corner of that State, in approximate latitude 39° 43i' and longitude 80° 31', and from that corner north along the western boundary of Pennsylvania until the line intersects Ohio River; from this point the boundary runs southwest down the Ohio, on the northwestern bank, to the mouth of Big Sandy River.
