Conservation Advice for the Karst Springs and Associated Alkaline Fens of the Naracoorte Coastal Plain Bioregion
The Threatened Species Scientific Committee provided their advice to the Minister on 31 July 2020. The Minister approved this Conservation Advice on 3 December 2020 and agreed that no recovery plan is required at this time. Conservation Advice1 for the Karst springs and associated alkaline fens of the Naracoorte Coastal Plain Bioregion This document combines the approved conservation advice and listing assessment for the threatened ecological community. It provides a foundation for conservation action and further planning. Karst springs and alkaline fens, Ewen Ponds © Copyright, Anthony Hoffman Conservation Status The Karst springs and associated alkaline fens of the Naracoorte Coastal Bioregion is listed in the Endangered category of the threatened ecological communities list under the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999 (EPBC Act). The ecological community was assessed by the Threatened Species Scientific Committee, who found it to be eligible for listing as Endangered and recommended that a recovery plan is not required at this time. The Committee’s assessment and recommendations are at Section 6. The Committee’s assessment of the eligibility against each of the listing criteria is: Criterion 1: Vulnerable Criterion 2: Endangered Criterion 3: Insufficient data Criterion 4: Endangered Criterion 5: Insufficient data Criterion 6: Insufficient data The main factors that make the threatened ecological community eligible for listing in the Endangered category are its historic losses to drainage, clearing and resulting fragmentation, and ongoing threats to its integrity and function, particularly from hydrological changes. The Karst springs and associated alkaline fens of the Naracoorte Coastal Plain Bioregion occurs within country (the traditional lands) of the Boandik and the Gunditjmara peoples.

AUSTRALIAN ORCHID NAME INDEX (27/4/2006) by Mark A. Clements
AUSTRALIAN ORCHID NAME INDEX (27/4/2006) by Mark A. Clements and David L. Jones Centre for Plant Biodiversity Research/Australian National Herbarium GPO Box 1600 Canberra ACT 2601 Australia Corresponding author: [email protected] INTRODUCTION The Australian Orchid Name Index (AONI) provides the currently accepted scientific names, together with their synonyms, of all Australian orchids including those in external territories. The appropriate scientific name for each orchid taxon is based on data published in the scientific or historical literature, and/or from study of the relevant type specimens or illustrations and study of taxa as herbarium specimens, in the field or in the living state. Structure of the index: Genera and species are listed alphabetically. Accepted names for taxa are in bold, followed by the author(s), place and date of publication, details of the type(s), including where it is held and assessment of its status. The institution(s) where type specimen(s) are housed are recorded using the international codes for Herbaria (Appendix 1) as listed in Holmgren et al’s Index Herbariorum (1981) continuously updated, see [http://sciweb.nybg.org/science2/IndexHerbariorum.asp]. Citation of authors follows Brummit & Powell (1992) Authors of Plant Names; for book abbreviations, the standard is Taxonomic Literature, 2nd edn. (Stafleu & Cowan 1976-88; supplements, 1992-2000); and periodicals are abbreviated according to B-P-H/S (Bridson, 1992) [http://www.ipni.org/index.html]. Synonyms are provided with relevant information on place of publication and details of the type(s). They are indented and listed in chronological order under the accepted taxon name.

Colourful Spider-Orchid (Caladenia Sp. Aff. Colorata)
Action State ment Flora and Fauna Guarantee Act 1988 No. 245 Colourful Spider-orchid Caladenia sp. aff. colorata (Lower Glenelg River) This revised Action Statement is based on the Recovery Plan prepared for this species by DSE under contract to the Commonwealth Department of the Environment, Water, Heritage and the Arts. Description The Colourful Spider-orchid (Caladenia sp. aff. colorata (Lower Glenelg River) sensu Ross & Walsh (2003)) is an unnamed taxon within the Caladenia patersonii complex, within which there is continuing taxonomic revision. Jeanes and Backhouse (2000) describe C. sp. aff. colorata (Lower Glenelg River) as a terrestrial, deciduous herb which grows to approximately 30 cm tall, with one or two flowers that vary from cream-green with reddish streaks to wholly reddish in colour. The labellum is red with dark red marginal teeth. The tepals are up to 35 mm long and have tapering, filamentous tips. Flowering occurs in September and October. Distribution The Colourful Spider-orchid is endemic to Victoria, where it occurs in the Naracoorte Coastal Plain bioregion (Environment Australia 2000). The historical distribution of this species is unknown, but it is likely to have occurred in similar vegetation in southwest Victoria and southeast South Australia prior to land clearing for agriculture, viticulture and forestry. Distribution in Victoria (Flora Information System DSE 2007) Abundance The Colourful Spider-orchid is known from one wild population containing approximately 150 individuals. behaviour and climatic conditions.
