Strathalbyn Mining Lease Flora Assessment EXECUTIVE SUMMARY An ecological assessment was undertaken for a low-lying seasonal wetland basin south of the Alexandrina Council sewage ponds in Strathalbyn, South Australia. The area is considerably degraded by weeds, feral animals and previous human impacts such as stockpiling soils and changes to natural water flows. There are some small areas containing remnant vegetation which are currently providing moderate level habitat to a number of local native fauna species. Four vegetation types were described for the area: 1 = Exotic herbland +/- Atriplex semibaccata (Berry Saltbush), Suaeda australis (Austral Seablite), Tecticornia pergranulata ssp. pergranulata (Black-headed Samphire) 2 = Muehlenbeckia florulenta (Lignum) Tall Shrubland 3 = Council revegetation area 4 = Stockpile site. None of the vegetation associations recorded within the project areas are listed under the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999 (EPBC Act), or the state’s Provisional List of Threatened Ecosystems of South Australia (DEH, in progress). A total of 28 native flora species and 33 exotic species were recorded during the field survey of the project area (14 of these are planted native species). None of the remnant species are of conservation significance under the EPBC Act, or under the National Parks and Wildlife Act 1972 . The Protected Matters Search identified 16 threatened species, 10 migratory species, one wetland of national significance and two nationally threatened ecological communities protected under the EPBC Act. None of the threatened ecological communities were detected and the subject site is ‘upstream’ from Coorong and Lakes Alexandrina and Albert Wetlands of International Significance wetland. Ten nationally listed flora species highlighted by the Protected Matters Search were not detected on site and are regarded as unlikely to occur, particularly given the high level of weed invasion across the site. However Arachnorchis colorata (Painted Spider-orchid) records are less than 10 km from the project area and the species would have been inconspicuous during the field survey. Therefore the species cannot be considered unlikely to occur. Only one of the nationally listed bird species, Merops ornatus (Rainbow Bee-eater), is considered a possible visitor to the site. The BDBSA records identified five nationally listed flora species, 24 state listed flora species and 27 threatened native fauna species as having records within 10 km of the survey area. No national or state listed species were recorded within the survey area, however there are four species of orchids which would not be conspicuous during the survey period. Eucalyptus fasciculosa (Pink Gum) has previously been recorded adjacent to the site and is therefore the likelihood of occurrence is listed as ‘possible’, iii Strathalbyn Mining Lease Flora Assessment despite not being observed within any of the mapped vegetation associations. No threatened fauna species were detected within the primary survey area. Most of those species where the likelihood of occurrence is considered ‘possible’ have either been recorded at the site previously or are known to utilise large mature eucalypts and woodland vegetation which is adjacent the project area. The clearance associated with the periodic inundation is not considered to impact upon any of the threatened species highlighted within this search. Under the Native Vegetation Act 1991 , the proposal is considered likely to have an adverse impact upon some native vegetation species and therefore an appropriate Significant Environmental Benefit (SEB) has been calculated to offset the proposed clearance. This can be achieved as a set aside area of land, or a payment into the Native Vegetation Fund for the management of native vegetation that results in a net gain for the environment. The land management amount has been calculated at 3.44 ha and the equivalent monetary amount is $27,362.16. iv Strathalbyn Mining Lease Flora Assessment Table of Contents 1 INTRODUCTION ................................................................................................................. 1 1.1 Objectives .............................................................................................................................. 1 2 COMPLIANCE AND LEGISLATIVE SUMMARY .............................................................. 2 2.1 Native Vegetation Act 1991 ................................................................................................... 2 2.2 National Parks and Wildlife Act 1972 .................................................................................... 2 2.3 Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999 ......................................... 3 3 BACKGROUND INFORMATION ....................................................................................... 4 3.1 Site details ............................................................................................................................. 4 3.2 Environmental setting ............................................................................................................ 7 3.2.1 Interim Biogeographical Regionalisation of Australia zones and remnancy ............ 7 3.2.2 Climate ...................................................................................................................... 8 4 METHODS ........................................................................................................................... 9 4.1 Database searches ................................................................................................................ 9 4.2 Field survey ........................................................................................................................... 9 4.2.1 Vegetation associations, habitats and condition ....................................................... 9 4.2.2 Fauna ...................................................................................................................... 10 4.3 Survey limitations ................................................................................................................. 10 5 RESULTS .......................................................................................................................... 12 5.1.1 Threatened flora species ........................................................................................ 13 5.1.2 Threatened and migratory fauna species ............................................................... 14 5.1.3 Threatened ecological communities ....................................................................... 16 5.1.4 Wetland of international significance (RAMSAR) ................................................... 17 5.2 Biological Database of South Australia (BDBSA) search .................................................... 17 5.2.1 Threatened flora species ........................................................................................ 17 5.2.2 Threatened fauna species ...................................................................................... 18 5.3 Field survey ......................................................................................................................... 21 5.3.1 Flora species........................................................................................................... 21 5.3.2 Vegetation associations .......................................................................................... 21 5.3.3 Threatened ecological communities ....................................................................... 25 5.3.4 Important weed species .......................................................................................... 26 5.3.5 Fauna species......................................................................................................... 28 6 DISCUSSION ...................................................................................................................

Copying of any part of this thesis is prohibited for two years from the date this statement was signed; after that time limited copying is permitted in accordance with the Copyright Act 1968. Karen A. Johnson iii iv Abstract Relationships between plants and their pollinators are thought to have played a major role in the morphological diversification of angiosperms. The epacrids (subfamily Styphelioideae) comprise more than 550 species of woody plants ranging from small prostrate shrubs to temperate rainforest emergents. Their range extends from SE Asia through Oceania to Tierra del Fuego with their highest diversity in Australia. The overall aim of the thesis is to determine the relationships between epacrid floral features and potential pollinators, and assess the evolutionary status of any pollination syndromes. The main hypotheses were that flower characteristics relate to pollinators in predictable ways; and that there is convergent evolution in the development of pollination syndromes.

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.
