Studies in the Genus Acacia (Mimosaccae),1 Studiesin the genusAcacia (Mimosaceae)-8 A revisionof the Uninerves-Triangulares,in part (the tetramerousspecies) By B. R. Maslin Abstract A taxonon,ic revision of parl of Acacia Series Urr'fte/yeris presented. Includedare those species with 4-merousflowers and triangular-shapedphyllodes. The seventeenspecies comprising this group are endemicto south-westWestern Australia. Eight new speciesand one new variety are descrlbe A. delphina sp. !9y., ,4./i/tolea sp. nov. (syn. A. decipiensaluct.), A. phaeocalyxsp. no\., A, phlebopetalasp. nov., A. phlebopetalavar. pube:cens var. nov., A. pycnocephala sp. nov., ,4. tobinae sp. noy., A. Mmitrullata sp. nov. and A. Lliginosasp. lroy. A new name, A, chtl'stcephala,is gilen to the taxon A. biflora var. airca E, Pritzel. Three names previously in common use have been relegatedto syn- onymy'.A. cuneataBenth.and A. decipiens(C. Koen.) R.Bt. are no.\'/A. tunca,a (Burm.f.) Hort. ex Hoffmannseggwhile,4. l'errlcosaW. V. Fitzg. is A. i crossam Hook. Keys io speciesand varietiesare provided,all taxa are illustratedand their distributionmapped. Introduction The presentrevision is basedon Bentham's 1864and 1875treatments of "UnineNes-Triangulares" the (see below) but treats only those specieswith 4-merousflowers. Thus only Western Australian ta\a are considered. The speciesincluded by Bentham but excluded here are A. acqnthocladaF. Muell., A. bidentata Benth., l. dilatata Benth. a\d. A. gunnii Benth. (syn A. yomeri- .formis A. Cunn. ex Benth.). Three speciesand two varieties described since 1875 are included here, viz. A. inops Maidet et Blakely, A. mooreena W. Y. Fitzg., A. yernicosaW. Y. Fitzg. (: A. inuassata Hook.), l. bifiora var. aurea E. Pritzel (: A. chrysocephsldnom. et stat. nov.) and A. horridula rar. hastul- stoides E. Prttzel ( A. uliginosasp. no\.). ln addition. eighr new specie' and one new variety are described. The terminologyused to describeplant communitiesis that presentedby Aplin (1976). This is a slightly modified versionof the systemproposed by Specht(1970). All illustrations appearing in this work have been drawn from pressed herbanum specrmens. Only a selectionof specimensis cited under each taxon. A list of the numbered specimensseen is given at the end of this paper. Some of the un- numbered specimensseen are cited in the text. Historical perspective Benthan (1841) described lhe Triangularcs as one of the eleven major subdivisions of his SeriesPiyl/odineae and incltded specieswith both uninerved and plurinerved phyllodes. Meisner (1844 and 1848).Bentham (1855) and Mueller (1859) later describednew taxa which were referred to the Trians;lare;. In 1864 Bentham reconsidered his earlier classification of Acaciq. 1n this work he raised the SeriesPhyllodineae to the rank of Division and at the same time divided the species previously included in the Triangulares among the 266 L9Z 'DSoutS!lt't pLvtoJolln.!l!Luas 'DlDLldaJouzId k, V V'oppr,tJotl t, zr^ sercadspelalel ,{lssolcJnoJ ur:ncco sepol1,{qd elEllnrlrules (surSreu I?rxeq" pue Jerxep"eql qtoq uo polSu€eje ,{eqtl"ql ldocxe etu"s oqt er" sepolJr(rldel?ltnrl) ^luo urSrtur eql uo pe13ur 'sseq letxepe 'e]surrunre putt oqt e^oqe scu"lsrp elrlos t? olpplru aq1 ,4\oleqlsepEoJq eJBqcrq^\ sepollfqd o1 perlddr sr al"llnllruros ruJs] oql 'uorlrppe uI (tf6l) '1, l, proJp€l{ ur ue,tr8 srurel oql pasn e^eq I olqrssod ererlrl6 sedeqs eseql eqtJJSopol {3olouru:a1 psqsrTq"lseSursn ut osuE ueUo serllllcurp'IJloorru^sP 'pecnpold srql Jo esneJeg lrrleurru,{se ,{te^ eje q.tg,r elllos ol? sod€r{s 'seprs Jo 8ur{re,r ,{1epru $rql oqt Jo elnls^Jnc pue ql8ue1e^rt?ler eql ur secue -reJIp ol enp lnq JBIn8ueulsr odrqs crseqoqJ sdrlolSqnsol1'. .^arDf8uo!.tJ -sa,t.lautuneql epr^rpol pesnsJalJe.r"{c eqlJo euo sr eclrqsepo11,{q4 l€drJuud 'V ( 1 arn8tg ur peleJlsnJlrer? ,{\oleq ue,rr8 surrel eq1 Jo IuBt\) :sapo llqJ 'lue8und ssol.lo orolu eq u?J sos"qluetsrs;ed eql aDulqorv pue Dlolddoqalqd tr uI lue8und ere ,{3111e.rerl,$ sua8ta,ttp y uetJo pu? xllwoaoqd y roj ldecxe sesEqpeue{crrll pu€ eBurul"l slrou€os e,\€rl selndllseseqJ seqcue.rq3uno,( aql uo sepoll,{qdtsoLu ss"q oql lp lueseJdsr 'ou!4dpp Jo selndrlsgo -rrrd z ,, solurleulosp\rB Da.totjq J roj tdecxg :safd!$ t 'sepo11,4qdsnorqrlS e,r.uq,{11ensn sarceds eqt 'D.to4[!q Jo :lsereqJ Jrlcco op slenpr^rpursno;q213 auos V ]oJ leurJou oJu sopoll,{qd,tureq q8noqllv sepoll,{qd,{rr"q ^lluelsrsuocqtr,{\ uox"t .(luo orll st su saqnd Je^ DpD(lo(plL!(l oDo)l/ fJrcr] ol snoJq€I8 uo.rJ ,t.r"A Jo freq s^B,ulereqlle e.re"xel reqto orll ur soqJuslq eqJ- xilDoaDqd ur punoJ osle 's€qcuerq f fll€tuJoLr€r? ,{eql q8noqllu snorqelS ,{lluolsrsuoJs1z\ Da,lottll V {lug (688 d '9161 urlse1,1),{lsnor^erd pessnrsrp oeaq s?q ereq pesn ,{3o1o -ulurJot runlueunpur eqJ "x"t et"rlueJelllp ol ,{lln3sseccns,fte,r pe,{olduraeq uEcSuue^or Jo ed,{1eq1 rou srr?qJo ecuesqEJo oJuasordeq} roqlreN sepol 1,(qd snorqelS pup soqJu"rq ,{req e,teq sercedseql Jo lsolN :unltuawnpLq Z 'tq8req ur ru g 7 Surqcre;'dno.r8 cql sreqLueu lssll"l oql ete Dw)untt pLtEoanlltl Dt)D)/ uotle]r?a^ Jo V 'sdou|v pelurcoss"eql ur polSu?luo,rol3 serurteuos Jo esorJtuuqt tsnqol erou Sureq q8noqqe 'qcrq,tr soqJuttq :lJalo qll,r sqnJrls uE Dsout8tln y pu?

The phyllodes have a principal nerve that extends from the pulvinus (which is normally rather obscure) to the normally pungent apical mucro. Often a less obvious secondary nerve extends towards the gland from near the base of the pdncipal nerve. A gland occurs at the apex of an angle on the adaxial margin of the phyllode. That portion of the adaxial margin between the gland and the pulvinus is termed the adaxial proximal margin while the portion between tho gland and the apical mucro is termed the adaxial distal margin. The abaxial margin is the side below the principal nerve between the pulvinus and the mucro. 5. Inflorescences: Inflorescence charactem are very useful in distinguishing species within the Uninert,es-Triqngulares. The most impoftant character is the number of flowers per head, but other useful characters include peduncle length, bud shape and petal nervature. The majority of species have simple (i.e. not compound) inflorescences which are normally solitary at the nodes along the upper branches. Only the two closely related taxa, A. littorea and A. truncata, have racemose in- florescences. Here the raceme axis is very reduced. 692 'sdnoJ8 lnoJ ur peur€luocen safip&uo!,tJ-sauauunaW Sursr-rdLuors:rc:ds ua:tu:nrs aLlI .a ernBrJur (;lerrieuu_Lei8erppjruiserii eJEsdrLlsuorlpliJ JgrJedsJ:lul ,{qsarpnts 3ur;paor petrurl 'qd Jles,{Lu pueleutnD Aq-sJlpnls -uJllod ru_o4pJ^rJep ecuepl/\e Surlroddns qlr,r\ ,{SoJorldJo[u e^rlereoujoJuo AJI?dlJuudpeqsrtq"lse eJ? sorlruuE sorcods .dnoJ8cttrlouoxel IBJnlEu" 1ou flurcgec or" eJeqpeugep se sioln8uutj-saatauun e\II saraF8uBlrl-saraulun oql ulqlpi sdlqsuouBlau ueqlrap"orq ,tllqarts Suroq eape relno rqt prurlrql ^',".0""" Jil"Ul,",i^ltffi sp00soql uae,rleq popeJluoo (,{loJeqJo) lou or€ tegl sur8nru qlh{ puB Jnoloc 'el€Irls-uou 'sp::s IcBIq^of u,{\o-rq rq} re^o pesrEr^ltqSrls ^luo .pe^rnJ YI '3uo1qo 'l€U ,{ytq8rls ,{l.rorreu ere treq sauun8tl:q1 sdnorh alz.rung .y pue Drcbftq^'V polElal ,{[osolc eql srrJrds asoq] srpnlrur dnor8qns puocos 'onoJd Jo er{J -olnpr.t.toqD|JD)V eqt ur JnJJo llE ed,{t :un8el srqt 3urssos.odserrads aql uortdf,JxJ euo qllr\[ sur8nru peuelcnl]-uou qlr^\ pue \xlloJoaDqd Z) 'JlEuls .rnoloJ.ur u,$oJq-peJ ,(lesg ,{11eu1pn1r8uo1.spees eql uee^\leqpelc"Jl 'spuJ -uoJ (AFJEq Jo) tou gloq le peJedq ,aloJol .pe^lnc ere qcrq,Lrserun8el olrtcuqsrp-,fual e,\er{dno€qns lsJUorllJo sJequou eql .(^\oteq eos)selnql:11e IectSolor{droru uorte-roprsuoc uE uro:j p-qsljqefe sdrio:B iioqr

  • Integrated Approach to Nitrogen Fixing Tree Germplasm Development
    INTEGRATED APPROACH TO NITROGEN FIXING TREE GERMPLASM DEVELOPMENT JAKE HALLIDAY' ABSTRACT - The performance of nitrogen fixing trees introduced to new environments depends on proper reconstitution of the symbiotic associatioi on which the trees rely for their nutrition. Thus selection strategies employed to identify adapted g.rmplasm for particular sites must provide for three-way selection of seed, rhiobia and mycorrhizae. Selected lines must then be multiplied before they can be deployed in varying types of development programs. Speciai problems are faced in accomplishing these ends with virtually all nitrogen fixing tr-es. Results and experiences are described which emphasize the importance of parallel selection of plant germplasm and Rhizobiurn strains. '.n the case of VA mycorrhizae, effective symbioses can occur without specific inoculation. Methods for selecting and multiplying trees and their microsymbionts on a large scale are described and discussed. Index terms: mycorrhiza technology, Rhizobium technology, nitrogen fixing trees, plant selection, seed technology.

  • Version 2 Targeted Threatened Flora Search Proposed Demonstration Trail Mount Clarence Albany
    Unit 5A 209 Chester Pass Road Albany WA 6330 9842 1575 [email protected] ABN 48 138 824 272 Job Ref: COA011 7th December 2016 Sandra Maciejewski Reserves Officer City of Albany PO Box 484 Albany WA 6331 Updated Report – Version 2 Targeted Threatened Flora Search Proposed Demonstration Trail Mount Clarence Albany Dear Sandra, On the 26th October 2016 Botanists/Ecologist, Karlene Bain and Bianca Theyer (Bio Diverse Solutions) undertook a targeted linear threatened flora search of 840m for a proposed mountain bike alignment at Mount Clarence, City of Albany (refer to Attachment A for the survey area). This survey was required as there was potential for threatened flora to be present within the subject area and there is proposed clearing of native vegetation as part of the proposed bike trail. The scope of work included: Undertake Targeted Flora Survey across subject site through linear sampling (10m buffer) in vegetation types present and mapping of boundaries of vegetation; Undertake any identification of any flora species, including herbarium identification if required; GPS and map any populations of Threatened Species (if applicable); and Prepare brief report on findings as per appropriate government agency legislation and guidelines. It is noted this survey was undertaken during the spring flowering period. The threatened flora search of the linear bike trail found that the Mount Clarence reserve is a diverse habitat with four vegetation types mapped, being: 1. Granite outcrop and fringing Taxandria shrub land; 2. Tall Gastrolobium shrub land; 3. Open Jarrah/ Marri woodland; and 4. Coastal heath. In November 2016 an occurrence of Stylidium falcatum (P1) was found (5 plants) on laterite soils associated with a cleared alignment for a powerline, on the edge of the jarrah/ marri ecotype.

  • Landcorp Denmark East Development Precinct Flora and Fauna Survey
    LandCorp Denmark East Development Precinct Flora and Fauna Survey October 2016 Executive summary Introduction Through the Royalties for Regions “Growing our South” initiative, the Shire of Denmark has received funding to provide a second crossing of the Denmark River, to upgrade approximately 6.5 km of local roads and to support the delivery of an industrial estate adjacent to McIntosh Road. GHD Pty Ltd (GHD) was commissioned by LandCorp to undertake a biological assessment of the project survey area. The purpose of the assessment was to identify and describe flora, vegetation and fauna within the survey area. The outcomes of the assessment will be used in the environmental assessment and approvals process and will identify the possible need for, and scope of, further field investigations will inform environmental impact assessment of the road upgrades. The survey area is approximately 68.5 ha in area and includes a broad area of land between Scotsdale Road and the Denmark River and the road reserve and adjacent land along East River Road and McIntosh Road between the Denmark Mt Barker Road and South Western Highway. A 200 m section north and south along the Denmark Mt Barker Road from East River Road was also surveyed. The biological assessment involved a desktop review and three separate field surveys, including a winter flora and fauna survey, spring flora and fauna survey and spring nocturnal fauna survey. Fauna surveys also included the use of movement sensitive cameras in key locations. Key biological aspects The key biological aspects and constraints identified for the survey area are summarised in the following table.

  • Species List
    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.
