Most of this area is covered with native vegetation, which will need to be cleared to facilitate development. The City has prepared this Level 2 Flora and Vegetation Survey to support any future federal and / or state environmental impact assessment processes. The findings of the Level 2 Spring Flora and Vegetation Survey, conducted during September and October 2014, are summarised as follows: • No Declared Rare Flora Species listed under Section 23 F of the Western Australian Wildlife Conservation Act 1950 or Priority flora species as listed by the Department of Parks and Wildlife (DPaW) were found within the survey area. • No flora protected under the Commonwealth Environmental Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999 (EPBC Act) were recorded within the survey area. • Key flora species that may provide habitat for threatened species of black cockatoo protected under the EPBC Act were identified within the survey area. Key flora for the black cockatoos include: Jarrah ( Eucalyptus marginata ), Banksia attenuata and Woody Pear ( Xylomelum occidentale ). • Vegetation within the survey area may provide limited habitat for threatened Western Ringtail possums protected under the EPBC Act, for example via provision of denning or alternative foraging habitat. • The survey area is identified as occurring within the Karrakatta Complex

  • Waterloo Urban and Industrial Expansion Flora and Fauna Survey
    Shire of Dardanup Waterloo Urban and Industrial Expansion Flora and Fauna Survey March 2015 Executive summary This report is subject to, and must be read in conjunction with, the limitations set out in Section 1.4 and the assumptions and qualifications contained throughout the Report. The Greater Bunbury Strategy and Structure Plan identified a potential significant urban expansion area located to the east of the Eaton locality and an industrial expansion area in Waterloo, in the Shire of Dardanup. The Shire of Dardanup (the Shire) and the Department of Planning have commenced preparation of District Structure Plans (DSP) for the urban expansion area and the industrial expansion area. The DSP will be informed by several technical studies including flora and fauna surveys. The Shire has commissioned GHD Pty Ltd (GHD) to undertake a flora and fauna survey and reporting for the Project. The Project Area is situated in the locality of Waterloo in the Shire of Dardanup. The Project Area includes the urban development area to the north of the South- west Highway (SWH) and the industrial development area to the south of the SWH. GHD undertook a desktop assessment of the Project Area and a flora and fauna field assessment with the first phase conducted from 13 to 14 August, 2014 and the second phase conducted from 29 to 31 October 2014. The purpose of this assessment was to identify the parts of the Project Area that have high, moderate and low ecological values so that the Shire can develop the DSP in consideration of these ecological values. This assessment identified the biological features of the Project Area and the key results are as follows.

Florian Wagner iv Abstract Plant systematics, the study of taxonomy, phylogeny and evolutionary processes in plants has undergone considerable progress in the last decades. The application of modern molecular approaches and DNA-sequencing techniques in the field has led to an improved inventory of biodiversity and a better understanding of evolutionary processes shaping the biological diversity on our planet. The increased availability of molecular and genomic data has particularly facilitated the investigation of shallowly diverged and taxonomically complex taxon-groups, which is challenging due to minor morphological differences, low genetic differentiation and/or hybridization among taxa. The present thesis investigates species delimitation, hybridization and polyploidization in the recently diverged genera Leucanthemum Mill. and Rhodanthemum B.H.

  • 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.

  • Molecular Phylogeny, Radiation Patterns and Evolution of Life-History Traits in Ursinia (Anthemideae, Asteraceae)
    Molecular Phylogeny, Radiation Patterns and Evolution of Life-History Traits in Ursinia (Anthemideae, Asteraceae) by Nonkululeko Swelankomo A thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science at Stellenbosch University Department of Botany and Zoology Faculty of Science Supervisor: Prof. Ladislav Mucina Co-supervisor: Prof. Dirk U. Bellstedt December 2008 2 Declaration By submitting this dissertation electronically, I declare that the entirety of the work contained therein is my own, original work, that I am the owner of the copyright thereof (unless to the extent explicitly stated otherwise) and that I have not previously in its entirety or in part submitted it for obtaining any qualification. Date: Desember, 2008 Copyright © 2008 Stellenbosch University All rights reserved 3 Abstract Sequence data from the Internal Transcribed Spacer (ITS) of the nuclear ribosomal DNA were used to study the phylogenetic relationships in the genus Ursinia Gaertn. (Asteraceae, Anthemideae) in the southern African region. Closely related genera, i.e. Cotula L., Osteospermum L. and Agoseris Raf., were used as outgroups. The study also included maximum parsimony and principal component analyses. The taxa within the genus Ursinia had previously been classified into two subgenera, Ursinia and Sphenogyne R.Br., mainly on the basis of distinct cypsela characters. The maximum parsimony, principal component and the phylogenetic analyses revealed two subgenera, corresponding to the existing subgeneric classification. Principal component analysis shows that the pappus, the number of pappus bristles and the colour of the cypsela are the most informative characters. However, the low number of phylogenetically informative characters of the ITS sequences, the poor resolution in the consensus tree, and low branch support values indicate that the ITS data contain weak phylogenetic signals.
