1 a Survey of the Flora of Remnants Within the Waddy
1 A SURVEY OF THE FLORA OF REMNANTS WITHIN THE WADDY FOREST LAND CONSERVATION DISTRICT Stephen Davies and Phil Ladd for the Waddy Forest Land Conservation District Committee March 2000 2 CONTENTS INTRODUCTION 1 METHODS 3 RESULTS 4 DISCUSSION 56 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS 59 REFERENCES 60 Appendix 1 - Composite plant list 60 Appendix 2 - Plants found outside the sample sites 67 Appendix 3 - Composite bird list 67 3 INTRODUCTION The Waddy Forest Land Conservation District is about 41,000 hectares and contains 23 substantial land holdings. In 1999 the District received a grant from the National Heritage Trust to survey the flora of its remnant vegetation. Much of this is on private property and the District Committee selected thirty three plots of remnant bushland on private farms to be included in flora survey. The present report is based on visits to these thirty three remnants that lie on 14 of the 23 farms in the district. The surveys are intended to provide information about the biodiversity of the various remnants with the aim of establishing the priority for preservation, by fencing, of the remnants and to determine the value of linking some of them by the planting of corridors of vegetation. At each site the local landholder(s) joined the survey and provided invaluable background information about the history of the remnants. The vegetation of this part of the northern wheatbelt is known to be very diverse. The Marchagee Nature Reserve, lying north west of the District, was surveyed between 1975 and 1977 (Dell et al. 1979). The area was covered by Beard in his vegetation mapping project (Beard 1976), and part of the south of the District was covered in a report on Koobabbie Farm in 1990 (Davies 1990). -

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. -

Native Vascular Plant Taxa SWAFR
SWAFR - IBRA - Native Vascular Plant Taxa Paul Gioia, Science and Conservation Division, Department of Parks and Wildlife Report generated on 22/06/2016 11:08:17 AM This analysis uses a pro tem definition of the SWAFR that served to define the study area. It was based on the collection of IBRA 6.1 bioregions most closely approximating the original definition of the Southwest Province by Beard (1980). Data for this report were derived from a snapshot taken from WAHERB on 18/05/2015 for Gioia & Hopper (2016) paper. Criteria for data extraction and analysis were: 1. All vascular plants 2. Species-rank names where the typical subspecies also existed were renamed to the typical subspecies to avoid counting duplicate taxa 3. Native vascular taxa with current names Note: 1. This report contains information generated from intersecting the supplied polygon layer LOCAL_SWFIBR with the point species occurrence layer WAHERB_FILT_NATIVE. 2. Endemism is calculated based on the records available to this analysis and is not necessarily authoritative.

Phylogenetic Distribution and Evolution of Mycorrhizas in Land Plants

Western Pipeline Desktop Assessment
FI Joint-Venture Pty Ltd Yogi - Magnetite Project Yogi Western Pipeline Desktop Assessment April 2020 Executive summary FI Joint Venture (FIJV) proposes to construct and operate a magnetite iron ore project located approximately 250 kilometres (km) east-northeast of Geraldton and 15 km northeast of Yalgoo in the Mid-West, Western Australia (WA). The Yogi Magnetite Mine project (the Proposal) will also require the construction of a magnetite slurry pipeline, a water pipeline from the mine site to Geraldton Port, a return water pipeline, and a gas supply pipeline from the Dampier to Bunbury Natural Gas (DBNG) Pipeline network. GHD Pty Ltd (GHD) was commissioned by FIJV to undertake a desktop assessment of the western portion of the pipeline development envelope. This desktop assessment will be used to inform the environmental assessment and approvals process. The Pipeline Development Envelope (PDE) encompasses the western portion of the total proposed pipeline area and broadly follows the Mt Magnet Road extending from the Geraldton port eastwards to Pindar. The study area was defined for the desktop assessment based searches and includes a 40 km buffer of the PDE. Database searches identified two federally listed TECs potentially occurring within the study area: Subtropical and Temperate Coastal Saltmarsh, and Eucalypt Woodlands of the Western Australian Wheatbelt (DAWE 2020). The DBCA TEC and PEC database search identified an additional two PECs and/or their buffers occurring within the study area: Plant assemblages of the Moresby Range system and Coastal sands dominated by Acacia rosterllifera, Eucalyptus oraria and Eucalyptus obtusiflora (Geraldton area). No TECs/PECs intersect the PDE.
