Burdekin, Queensland 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. The list summarises the input data, so errors in the data received would be reflected in this document. • The scientific names and taxonomic concepts used in this report reflect an ANHAT view of the data and not necessarily that found in government censuses, databases or other authoritative lists.

Transnordestina s.n., 44036-900, Feira de Santana, Bahia, Brazil 3Fazenda Rio do Negro, Entre Rios, Bahia, Brazil Abstract The monospecific genus Discyphus, previously considered a member of Spiranthinae (Orchidoideae: Cranichideae), displays both vegetative and floral morphological peculiarities that are out of place in that subtribe. These include a single, sessile, cordate leaf that clasps the base of the inflorescence and lies flat on the substrate, petals that are long-decurrent on the column, labellum margins free from sides of the column and a column provided with two separate, cup-shaped stigmatic areas. Because of its morphological uniqueness, the phylogenetic relationships of Discyphus have been considered obscure. In this study, we analyse nucleotide sequences of plastid and nuclear DNA under maximum parsimony

NlLSSON Abstract A series of corrections and additions are given to the World Catalogue of Dytiscidae (Coleoptera) recently published as Volume 3 of the World Catalogue of Insect Series (NlLSSON 2001). A type species is selected of Badynectus SEIDLITZ, 1872. The preoccupied name Hydroporus trimaculatus THEOBALD, 1937, is replaced with Hydroporus theobaldi nomen novum. The number of recent species of the family Dytiscidae is now 3810. Key words: Coleoptera, Dytiscidae, world, catalogue, replacement name, type species, corrections, additions. Introduction My World Catalogue of the beetle family Dytiscidae (NlLSSON 2001) was published on November 22 and included names published up to September 30 the same year. It is my intention to publish regular up-dates of the catalogue based on more recent publications and continuous search for over-looked sources of information. I also want to correct the errors found in the published version of the catalogue so far.

Abstract Bacteria has a important role on mechanism nutrition and energy on ecosystem. The research was conducted September 2016 – July 2017. This purpose research was to determine a various food type on gastropods in mangrove ecosystem. The relationship between gastropod and mangrove productivity using Correspondence Analysis (CA). the sediment was taken with depth ± 10 cm and leaf litter was taken a litter trap 1 m x 1 m. The result showed that based on a chain food cycle that happened in mangrove ecosystem and tropic level. Gastropod T. telescopium choosed a food on mangrove sediment.

Box 230, BABINDA 4861 Phone: 0740 671 577 Newsletter 53 December 2005 MAJORS MOUNTAIN - A WALK TO PARADISE FOR A NATIVE ORCHID GROWER t~r; I1 -&d by Mark Nowochatko In Mid August 2005 the Atherton Tablelands Branch of SGAP conducted a field day at Major's Mountain, just east of Ravenshoe on the Evelyn Tableland in North Queensland. A group of 20 plus diehard SGAP enthusiasts met at the trailhead and undertook the walk of approximately 3 km one way. With the first 2.1 km easy going, the balance is a strenuous climb to an elevation of around 1,100 metres. II I1 Moving from the main track to the Major's Mountain goat trail, the orchids started with a Plectorrhiza tridentata and several Bulbophyllurns. Shortly after the steep climbing starts the orchid zone is reached. The pace slowed considerably as everyone explored this wonderful orchid habitat, and the difficulty of the walk faded away. Dendrobium adae in bloom greeted the walkers; some flowers with a significant amount of red on the back of the tepals caught the interest of several people. Amongst the orchids in bloom visible at eye level was Sarcochilusfalcatus. The plants are small with flowers nearly as large as the plants. A stunning Sarcochilus borealis (olivaceous) on a tree trunk barely 100 mm off the ground tested the determination of several photographers. (Mind you the ground was sloping up at over 50°.*) Several plants of Taeniophyllum were found carrying seed pods, but without the flowers positive identification of the species was not possible.

(Malvaceae) is described below as part of a large revision of the Australian components of H. sect. Bombicella DC. Restricted to Katjarra (the Carnarvon Range), part of the Birriliburu Indigenous Protected Area some 160 km north-north-west of Wiluna, this species was first collected in 1998 but only recognised as distinctive in 2012 when it was added to Western Australia’s vascular plant census under the name H. sp. Carnarvon (S. van Leeuwen 5110) by Johan Hurter (Parker & Biggs 2013). It was subsequently recollected during regional surveys in August 2012 and May 2013 by Gibson et al. (2014), who astutely collected ample herbarium samples along with detailed habitat notes and photographs. Examination of this material, along with specimens from all Australian members of sect. Bombicella, has confirmed that it is morphologically distinct, with its novel status further supported by a preliminary molecular phylogeny of the Australian Hibiscus (McLay, in prep.).
