Rye, An expanded circumscription and new classification ofRinzia (Chamelaucieae) 39 Nuytsia The journal of the Western Australian Herbarium 28: 39–93 Published online 20 January 2017 An expanded circumscription and new infrageneric classification of Rinzia (Myrtaceae: Chamelaucieae) Barbara L. Rye Western Australian Herbarium, Department of Parks and Wildlife, Locked Bag 104, Bentley Delivery Centre, Western Australia 6983 Abstract Rye, B.L. An expanded circumscription and new infrageneric classification of Rinzia (Myrtaceae: Chamelaucieae). Nuytsia 28: 39–93 (2017). The circumscription of Rinzia Schauer (Myrtaceae tribe Chamelaucieae DC.) is enlarged to encompass species with varied stamen arrangement, filament width and seed morphology. This revision of Rinzia s. lat. is based on both morphological and molecular evidence, and establishes five sections within the genus,Discolora Rye, Mesostemon Rye, Polyandra Rye, Semasperma Rye and the typical section. All sections occur in Western Australia, with three of them endemic to the south-west, while sect. Polyandra also occurs in central Australia and sect. Semasperma also occurs in south-eastern Australia. Three new combinations are made for species previously included within Baeckea L., and the new name R. orientalis Rye is published for B. crassifolia Lindl. Baeckea crassifolia var. icosandra F.Muell. ex Benth. is raised to species rank as R. icosandra (F.Muell. ex Benth.) Rye. The other new combinations are R. ericaea (F.Muell. ex Benth.) Rye and R. polystemonea (F.Muell.) Rye. Four new Western Australian species are described as R. fimbriolata Rye & Trudgen, R. medifila Rye, R. torquata Rye & Trudgen and R. triplex Rye & Trudgen, and a new subspecies from Kangaroo Island, South Australia, as R. -

More than a century passed before another key to the Australian genera appeared (Johnson & Briggs 1983), this time with 75 genera and 11 informal groups that were intended to be equivalent to tribes. In 2005 a new formal classification for the Myrtaceae (Wilsonet al. 2005) increased the number of tribes recognised in Australia to 151, but this paper did not include any keys. Approximately 85 Australian genera are now recognised, including 30 endemic to Western Australia. Ten tribes are represented in Western Australia and, since mid 2009, 54 genera have been listed for the State on FloraBase (Western Australian Herbarium 1998–). -

Biodiversity Summary: Rangelands, Western Australia
Biodiversity Summary for NRM Regions Guide to Users Background What is the summary for and where does it come from? This summary has been produced by the Department of Sustainability, Environment, Water, Population and Communities (SEWPC) for the Natural Resource Management Spatial Information System. It highlights important elements of the biodiversity of the region in two ways: • Listing species which may be significant for management because they are found only in the region, mainly in the region, or they have a conservation status such as endangered or vulnerable. • Comparing the region to other parts of Australia in terms of the composition and distribution of its species, to suggest components of its biodiversity which may be nationally significant. The summary was produced using the Australian 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.

Flora and fauna assessment for the Calingiri to Wubin study areas Prepared for Muchea to Wubin Integrated Project Team (Main Roads WA, Jacobs and Arup) Appendix 6 Key to determining presence of the EPBC Act listed TEC Eucalypt woodlands of the Western Australian Wheatbelt Description based on Department of the Environment (2015a): The Eucalypt woodlands of the Western Australian Wheatbelt TEC is composed of eucalypt woodlands dominated by a complex mosaic of eucalypt species with a single tree or mallet form over an understorey that is highly variable in structure and composition. A mallet habit refers to a eucalypt with a single, slender trunk and steep- angled branches that give rise to a dense crown. Many eucalypt species are considered iconic within the Wheatbelt landscape, for example, Eucalyptus salmonophloia (salmon gum), E. loxophleba subsp. loxophleba (York gum), Eucalyptus rudis subsp. rudis, E. salubris (gimlet), E. wandoo (wandoo) and the mallet group of species. Associated species may include Acacia acuminata (jam), Corymbia calophylla (marri) and Eucalyptus marginata (jarrah). The understorey structures are often bare to sparse, herbaceous, shrub of heath, chenopod-dominated, thickets (Melaleuca spp.) and saline areas with Tecticornia spp. The main diagnostic features include location, minimum crown cover of the tree canopy of 10% in a mature woodland, presence of key species and a minimum condition according to scale of Keighery (1994) that depends on size of a patch, weed cover and presence of mature trees. A patch is defined as a discrete and mostly continuous area of the ecological community and may include small-scale variations and disturbances, such as tracks or breaks, watercourses/drainage lines or localised changes in vegetation that do not act as a permanent barrier or significantly alter its overall functionality. -

Enekbatus, a New Western Australian Genus of Myrtaceae with a Multi-Locular Indehiscent Fruit
M.E.Nuytsia Trudgen 20: 229–259 & B.L. (2010) Rye. Enekbatus, a new Western Australian genus of Myrtaceae 229 Enekbatus, a new Western Australian genus of Myrtaceae with a multi-locular indehiscent fruit Malcolm. E. Trudgen & Barbara L. Rye Western Australian Herbarium, Department of Environment and Conservation, Locked Bag 104, Bentley Delivery Centre, Western Australia 6983 Abstract Trudgen, M.E. & Rye, B.L. Enekbatus, a new Western Australian genus of Myrtaceae with a multi-locular indehiscent fruit. Nuytsia 20: 229–259 (2010). A new myrtaceous genus endemic to south-western Australia is described as Enekbatus Trudgen & Rye. It is related to Rinzia Schauer and several other genera, all of which have an unmodified anther type, a multi-locular ovary and reniform seeds. However, the indehiscent fruit of the new genus separates it from the other members of this group. Ten species are recognised here; of these seven are newly described as Enekbatus bounites Trudgen & Rye, E. cristatus, E. dualis, E. eremaeus, E. longistylus, E. planifolius and E. sessilis. The new combinations Enekbatus cryptandroides (F.Muell.) Trudgen & Rye, E. clavifolius (S.Moore) Trudgen & Rye and E. stowardii (S.Moore) Trudgen & Rye, are made for three species that were previously included in Baeckea L. s. lat. This revision includes a key to the species, distribution maps and illustrations. Introduction A new myrtaceous genus, Enekbatus, is described here to recognise the morphological isolation of a group of species that are all endemic to the south-west of Western Australia. The distribution of the new genus extends from north of Geraldton to south of Merredin and inland to the western part of the Great Victoria Desert. -
