  • Bossiaea Ensata
    Bossiaea ensata Family: Fabaceae subfamily Faboideae Distribution: Woodland and open forest in south-east Queensland, eastern New South Wales and north-east Victoria. Common Sword bossiaea. Name: Derivation of Bossiaea... After Boissieu de la Martinière, a physician Name: and plant collector who participated in the expedition of Jean-Francois de La Perouse in 1785. ensata... From Latin ensatus, sword-like, referring to the flattened stems of this species. Conservation Not considered to be at risk in the wild. Status: General Description: Bossiaea is a genus of about 50 species all of which occur naturally only in Australia. They are found in all States and are small to medium shrubs. Bossiaea ensata Photo: Brian Walters Bossiaea ensata is a small shrub, often with a low, spreading habit and only rarely reaching about 1 metre high. It is generally leafless and has flattened, winged stems whose function takes the place of leaves (the leaves are actually reduced to small scales along the flattened stems). The stems are usually 3 to 10 mm in width (which distinguishes B.ensata from the similar B.scolopendria, which has winged stems up to 15 mm wide). True leaves are sometimes seen near the base of the plant or on juvenile stems - these true leaves are small and oval shaped. The flowers are yellow with a red centre and have the typical "pea" shape consisting of 4 petals; the "standard", the "keel" and two "wings", as shown in the diagram. They occur in the leaf "scales" in late spring and summer and are about 10-15 mm long.

A REVISION OF THE GENUS TEMPLETONIA R.Br. (PAPILIONACEAE) by J. H. Ross* ABSTRACT The endemic Australian genus Templetonia is revised. Eleven species are recognized and the uncertainty concerning the application of the name T. sulcata (Meissn.) Benth. is discussed. This discussion includes the selection ol a lectotype for Bossiaea rossii F. Muell., a possible synonym. Descriptions, a key to the identification of species, illustrations, and distribution maps are provided, together with notes on ecology and relationships. Two previous papers describing T. incana (.Muelleria 4: 247-249 (1980)) and T. negketa (loc. cit. 390-393 (1981)) should be used in conjunction with the present revision. INTRODUCTION Templetonia, a small genus of 1 1 species described by R. Brown in Ait. f Hort. , Kew. ed. 2, 4: 269 (1812), was named in honour of the Irish botanist John Templeton (1776-1825) ot Orange Grove, Belfast.

  • Flowers, Posts and Plates of Dirk Hartog Island
    Flowers, Posts and Plates of Dirk Hartog Island Lesley Brooker FLOWERS POSTS AND PLATES January 2020 Home Flowers, Posts and Plates of Dirk Hartog Island Lesley Brooker For the latest revision go to https://lesmikebrooker.com.au/Dirk-Hartog-Island.php Please direct feedback to Lesley Brooker at [email protected] Home INTRODUCTION This document is in two parts:- Part 1 — FLOWERS is an interactive reference to some of the flora of Dirk Hartog Island. Plants are arranged alphabetically within families. Hyperlinks are provided for quick access to historical material found on-line. Attention is drawn (in the green boxes below the species accounts) to some features which may help identification or may interest the reader, but these are by no means diagnostic. Where technical terms are used, these are explained in parenthesis. The ultimate on-line authority on the Western Australian flora is FloraBase. It provides the most up-to-date nomenclature, details of subspecies, flowering periods and distribution maps. Please use this guide in conjunction with FloraBase. Part 2 — POSTS AND PLATES provides short historical accounts of some the people involved in erecting and removing posts and plates on Dirk Hartog Island between 1616 and 1907, and those who may have collected plants on the island during their visit. Home FLOWERS PHOTOGRAPHS REFERENCES BIRD LIST Home Flower Photos The plants are presented in alphabetical order within plant families - this is so that plants that are closely related to one another will be grouped together on nearby pages. All of the family names and genus names are given at the top of each page and are also listed in an index.

  • Native Pea Plants Walkabout KWG
    Native Pea Plants Walkabout KWG standard (petal) wing wing (petal) (petal) keel (2 petals) Pea plants and wattles (botanically, members of the Fabaceae family) both possess root nodules containing nitrogen-fixing bacteria and have pods as their fruit. We classify the pea plants as Fabaceae, Subfamily Faboideae, the wattles as Fabaceae, Subfamily Mimosoideae. Many native pea plants grow in Ku-ring-gai Wildflower Garden, most of them with yellow–coloured flowers. Take a walk through the garden and see if you can find them. To help with their identification pictures of these species are shown below and underneath each picture a few key features are noted. Fuller descriptions of these plants can be found on Australian Plants Society – North Shore Group Blandfordia website: https://austplants.com.au/North-Shore/ in “Notes” on the Walks & Talks page. Excellent pictures can be found on the Hornsby Library website: www.hornsby.nsw.gov.au/library under: eLibrary, Learning and Research, Hornsby Herbarium.

  • Progress in the Recovery of the Flora of Treeless Subalpine Vegetation in Kosciuszko National Park After the 2003 Fires
    Cunninghamia 8(4): 2004 Walsh & McDougall, Post-fire recovery of high mountain flora and vegetation 439 Progress in the recovery of the flora of treeless subalpine vegetation in Kosciuszko National Park after the 2003 fires Neville G. Walsh1 and Keith L. McDougall2 1National Herbarium of Victoria, Birdwood Avenue, South Yarra, Vic. 3141; 2NSW Department of Environment and Conservation, PO Box 2115, Queanbeyan, NSW AUSTRALIA 2620. Abstract: The fires of January 2003 burnt much of the treeless high mountain country of Victoria, New South Wales and the Australian Capital Territory, and were the first extensive conflagration of this area since 1939. For this reason there are remarkably few studies of the response of alpine plants and vegetation to fire. A flora survey of treeless subalpine vegetation in the Kosciuszko area in late 2002 sampled 215 sites. Of the 119 sites that were burnt, 60 were relocated and re-sampled in late 2003 to assess the mode and extent of regeneration in a range of treeless plant communities. Twenty-four species (including 3 exotics) were recorded only in the pre-fire sampling. Fifty species (including 18 exotics) were recorded only in the post-fire sampling. One species, Chenopodium erosum, had not previously been recorded in Kosciuszko National Park, and is believed to be the first native chenopod recorded in alpine vegetation in Australia. There was no significant difference in mean number of species per quadrat between pre-fire and post-fire quadrats. The average number of weeds per quadrat was, however, significantly greater post-fire. Most of this difference was attributable to the significantly greater number of weeds per quadrat in bog vegetation after the fire.

Their descriptions provide us with the earliest written accounts of the appearance of these areas before European-imposed stock grazing, vegetation clearance and altered fire regimes transformed these landscapes.
