Approved Conservation Advice for Dendrobium Nindii This Conservation Advice was approved by the Minister / Delegate of the Minister on: 1/10/2008 Approved Conservation Advice (s266B of the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999) Approved Conservation Advice for Dendrobium nindii This Conservation Advice has been developed based on the best available information at the time this Conservation Advice was approved; this includes existing plans, records or management prescriptions for this species. Description Dendrobium nindii, Family Orchidaceae, also known as the Blue Antler Orchid or Blue Orchid, is an epiphytic antler orchid with stiffly erect, cylindrical, ribbed, dark brownish to blackish pseudobulbs that are leafy in the upper half. It bears 6–22 leaves that grow 8–15 cm long. Leaves are dark green and leathery, and often concave and notched (Jones, 2006). The raceme is 20–50 cm long, carrying 8–20 flowers (Dockrill, 1992; Jones, 2006). Flowers are white, whitish or pale lilac (Dockrill, 1992), mauve or violet (Jones, 2006), with a darker labellum (lip) (Dockrill, 1992; Jones, 2006). Sepals and petals are fleshy, spreading and twisted. The lateral lobes of the labellum are very large and the labellum has three dark purple ridges. Flowering occurs from July to September or October (Dockrill, 1992; Jones, 2006), and flowers are long-lived (Jones, 2006). Dendrobium nindii occasionally hybridises with Dendrobium (Durabaculum) undulatum and Ceratobium dalbertisii (Dendrobium antennatum) (Jones, 2006). This species is listed under the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999 (Cwlth) (EPBC Act) as Dendrobium nindii but has recently been moved to the genus Durabaculum (Clements & Jones, 2002). This name change is followed in Jones (2006) and Clements (2008). Dendrobium nindii is considered to be a synonym of Durabaculum nindii in the Australian Plant Census (CHAH, 2008). Conservation Status Dendrobium nindii is listed as endangered. This species is eligible for listing as endangered under the EPBC Act as, prior to the commencement of the EPBC Act, it was listed as endangered under Schedule 1 of the Endangered Species Protection Act 1992 (Cwlth). The species is also listed as endangered under the Nature Conservation Act 1992 (Queensland). Distribution and Habitat Dendrobium nindii is known from the McIlwraith Range on Cape York Peninsula, south to Innisfail, Queensland and is also known to occur in New Guinea (Cribb, 1986; Dockrill, 1992; Jones, 2006). Localities include Gap Creek in the Bloomfield area, the Daintree River, Port Douglas, and the Johnstone River (Queensland Herbarium, 2008). This species occurs within the Cape York and Wet Tropics (Queensland) Natural Resource Management Regions. Dendrobium nindii occurs up to 400 m above sea level, growing on trees (including mangroves and palms) in near-coastal swamps, coastal rainforest, mangroves, and low altitude gorges and streams (Dockrill, 1992; Jones, 2006). It has been recorded in rainforest on conglomerate and granite (Queensland Herbarium, 2008). It grows with its leaves and inflorescences exposed to strong light or even direct sunlight and its roots shaded (Dockrill; 1992). The distribution of this species is not known to overlap with any EPBC Act-listed threatened ecological communities. Dendrobium nindii Conservation Advice - Page 1 of 3 This Conservation Advice was approved by the Minister / Delegate of the Minister on: 1/10/2008 Threats The main identified threats to Dendrobium nindii were clearing of coastal habitats (Jones, 1992; Jones, 2006) and illegal collection (Jones, 1992). Research Priorities Research priorities that would inform future regional and local priority actions include: • Design and implement a monitoring program or, if appropriate, support and enhance existing programs. • More precisely assess population size, distribution, ecological requirements and the relative impacts of threatening processes. • Undertake survey work in suitable habitat and potential habitat to locate any additional populations/occurrences/remnants. • Undertake seed germination trials to determine the requirements for successful establishment, including mycorrhizal association trials. • Investigate the potential and efficacy of DNA-based or other approaches for the identification of individual plants and/or populations to provide a means for detecting and prosecuting illegal collection from the wild (see for example Palsboll et al., 2006). Regional and Local Priority Actions The following regional and local priority recovery and threat abatement actions can be done to support the recovery of Dendrobium nindii. Habitat Loss, Disturbance and Modification • Monitor known populations to identify key threats. • Monitor the progress of recovery, including the effectiveness of management actions and the need to adapt them if necessary. • Identify populations of high conservation priority. • Ensure road widening and maintenance activities (or other infrastructure or development activities) involving substrate or vegetation disturbance in areas where D. nindii occurs do not adversely impact on known populations. • Design and implement a management strategy to minimise illegal collection. • Control access routes to suitably constrain public access to known sites on public land. • Suitably control and manage access on private land. • Minimise adverse impacts from land use at known sites. • Investigate formal conservation arrangements such as the use of covenants, conservation agreements or inclusion in reserve tenure. Conservation Information • Raise awareness of D. nindii within the local community. Enable Recovery of Additional Sites and/or Populations • Undertake appropriate seed and mycorrhizal fungi collection and storage. • Investigate options for linking, enhancing or establishing additional populations. • Implement national translocation protocols (Vallee et al., 2004) if establishing additional populations is considered necessary and feasible. This list does not necessarily encompass all actions that may be of benefit to D. nindii, but highlights those that are considered to be of highest priority at the time of preparing the conservation advice.

A total of 281 individuals were used to construct regional descriptions of D. kingianum and 139 individuals were measured for 19 morphological characters, and similarities and differences among specimens summarised using multivariate statistical methods. Patterns of morphological variation within D. kingianum are consistent with a single variable species that expresses clinal variation, with short-growing plants in the south and taller plants in the northern part of the distribution. The nrITS gene tree suggests two subgroups within D. kingianum subsp. kingianum, one comprising northern, the other southern individuals, which may overlap in the vicinity of Dorrigo, New South Wales.

  • BAB II TINJAUAN PUSTAKA 2.1 Landasan Teori 2.1.1 Tinjauan
    8 BAB II TINJAUAN PUSTAKA 2.1 Landasan Teori 2.1.1 Tinjauan Umum Anggrek Anggrek adalah nama umum tumbuhan yang termasuk keluarga Orchidaceae, salah satu keluarga tumbuhan terbesar di dunia. Anggota keluarga anggrek tersebar di berbagai belahan dunia, kecuali di Antartika dan daerah gurun di Eurasia. Indonesia sendiri merupakan negara yang kaya akan tumbuhan anggrek. Di Indonesia anggrek banyak terdapat di Jawa Barat, Jawa Tengah, Sumatra, dan Irian Jaya (Rahmatia & Pitriana, 2007). Indonesia terkenal sebagai negara yang memiliki banyak spesies anggrek alam. Diperkirakan setengah dari spesies ini terdapat di Papua, sedangkan 2.000 spesies lainnya terdapat di Kalimantan dan sisanya tersebar di pulau-pulau lain di Indonesia (Lubis, 2010). Anggrek termasuk keluarga besar dari kelompok (subdivisi) tanaman berbunga atau berbiji tertutup (angiospermae), kelas tanaman berbiji tunggal (monocotyledone), ordo Orchidales, dan famili Orchidaceae (anggrek-anggrekan). Anggrek memiliki bunga yang indah dengan warna, bentuk dan corak yang beragam, serta dapat bertahan lama menyebabkan tanaman ini memiliki nilai ekonomis yang tinggi. Pesona bunganya yang indah merupakan daya tarik yang paling memikat (Syukur et al., 2012). Bagian-bagian tubuh anggrek terdiri dari akar, batang, daun, bunga, dan buah (Yusuf, 2012). Pada umumnya anggrek memiliki tipe tumbuh yang berbeda- 9 beda, diantaranya terestrial, epifit dan saprofit. Di samping itu apabila dilihat dari aspek cara tumbuhnya dibagi menjadi dua, yaitu simpodial dan monopodial. Beberapa genus yang termasuk ke dalam Famili Orchidaceae, yaitu Genus Dendrobium, Genus Vanda, Genus Phalaenopsis, Ganus Arachnis, Genus Spathoglottis, Genus Paphiopedilum, dan sebagainya. 2.1.1.1 Genus Dendrobium Dendrobium adalah jenis anggrek tropis yang memiliki sekitar 1.200 spesies. Anggrek dendrobium banyak dijumpai di daerah Asia Tenggara seperti Indonesia, Filipina, Thailand, Vietnam, dan Malaysia.
