The facts contained in Scott's paper are of value at the present time to those in search of information concerning the early history of the south-western portion of Tasmania, and as in years to come information may be desired concerning the condition of the south-western regi-on half a century after Scott's account was written, the writer desires to place on record certain brief general obser­ vations concerning this interesting area. The remarks made in the present instance are the out­ come of two brief visits to this area. In January, 1926, I visited the South Coast as far as New Harbour in my own yacht Telopea. Again, in January, 1927, at the kind invi­ tation of Mr. M. R. Freney, I visited the S-outh C-oast and Port Davey in the ketch Len'IUL (S. Purdon, Skipper). Messrs. P. B. Nye and F.

  • Natural Resource Management 26 Natural Resource Management
    25 NATURAL RESOURCE MANAGEMENT 26 NATURAL RESOURCE MANAGEMENT Background The Draft Huon Valley Natural Resource Management Strategy provides the source of most of the relatively brief descriptions contained within this section. The issues identifi ed here generally correlate with those identifi ed within the Draft NRM Strategy. The Draft NRM strategy addresses the broad range of natural resources and their management needs. The aim of the document is to “provide a comprehensive and action-oriented framework for sustainably managing, protecting and conserving the natural resources of the Huon Valley”. Like the regional NRM process, it does not regulate or control natural resource use in itself, but seeks to provide for or promote more coordinated and informed processes in order to achieve enhanced NRM outcomes. It frequently identifi es that the planning scheme is a critical factor in effectively managing and protecting natural resources. These natural resources are not only very important community assets but have an inherent value that warrants protection when considering prospective development proposals. Maintaining the quality of the municipal area’s natural resources is an essential requirement if the social, cultural and economic welfare of the area’s population is to be maintained over the longer term. Covering a total area of about 5,200 square kilometres, the municipal area is a region of immense cultural and natural diversity. This diverse landscape is characterised by settlements nestled among the partially cleared rolling hills of the eastern valleys and along the spectacular coastline and waterways of the Huon Estuary and the D’Entrecasteaux Channel. These are in turn set against the backdrop of extensive areas of native forest, striking mountain ranges and the South West Wilderness Area.

  • Overview of Tasmania's Offshore Islands and Their Role in Nature
    Papers and Proceedings of the Royal Society of Tasmania, Volume 154, 2020 83 OVERVIEW OF TASMANIA’S OFFSHORE ISLANDS AND THEIR ROLE IN NATURE CONSERVATION by Sally L. Bryant and Stephen Harris (with one text-figure, two tables, eight plates and two appendices) Bryant, S.L. & Harris, S. 2020 (9:xii): Overview of Tasmania’s offshore islands and their role in nature conservation.Papers and Proceedings of the Royal Society of Tasmania 154: 83–106. https://doi.org/10.26749/rstpp.154.83 ISSN: 0080–4703. Tasmanian Land Conservancy, PO Box 2112, Lower Sandy Bay, Tasmania 7005, Australia (SLB*); Department of Archaeology and Natural History, College of Asia and the Pacific, Australian National University, Canberra, ACT 2601 (SH). *Author for correspondence: Email: [email protected] Since the 1970s, knowledge of Tasmania’s offshore islands has expanded greatly due to an increase in systematic and regional surveys, the continuation of several long-term monitoring programs and the improved delivery of pest management and translocation programs. However, many islands remain data-poor especially for invertebrate fauna, and non-vascular flora, and information sources are dispersed across numerous platforms. While more than 90% of Tasmania’s offshore islands are statutory reserves, many are impacted by a range of disturbances, particularly invasive species with no decision-making framework in place to prioritise their management. This paper synthesises the significant contribution offshore islands make to Tasmania’s land-based natural assets and identifies gaps and deficiencies hampering their protection. A continuing focus on detailed gap-filling surveys aided by partnership restoration programs and collaborative national forums must be strengthened if we are to capitalise on the conservation benefits islands provide in the face of rapidly changing environmental conditions and pressure for future use.

School of Plant Science and Cooperative Research Centre for Forestry, University of Tasmania, Private Bag 55, Hobart, Tasmania 7001, Australia (BMP, GEMcK). *Author for correspondence. Email: [email protected] Eucalyptus cordata subsp. quadrangulosa is described to accommodate western populations of the species, and differs from the typical subspecies most conspicuously in the quadrangular branchlets, and also in the larger and more pointed juvenile leaves, the more flattened peduncles, the larger bi-ribbed flower buds, and the larger fruits. The quadrangular branchlets of the new subspecies are unique in E. ser. Orbiculares. The new subspecies occurs to the west of, and largely disjunct from, eastern E. cordata, and tends to occupy cooler and wet- ter sites. Some morphologically and geographically intermediate populations are known. Both subspecies of E. cordata are of restricted distribution and are known from relatively few, disjunct and generally numerically small populations, and as such are under threat from various natural and human-induced influences.

Its purpose was to 1903.

  • South East Cape Walk
    Proposal: South East Cape Walk Proponent / s Mr Ian Johnstone The Maria Island Walk Location Southwest National Park Description of proposal The South East Cape Walk proposal would give visitors the opportunity to walk to the tip of Australia’s southern most accessible point in the rugged South West National Park in the company and care of two professional walking guides. This overnight walk would start from Australia’s southernmost car park at Recherché Bay and involve walking along the renowned South Coast Track before heading off to South East Cape, following an existing route. The project would involve constructing an environmentally sensitive hut for overnight accommodation for the walkers. The hut, which would have a small environmental footprint and be located discreetly from view of other park users would be built in accordance with the requirements of the current Tasmanian Wilderness World Heritage Area (TWWHA) Management Plan. The hut would allow visitors to split the 10-12 hour return journey across two days with an overnight stay, within the National park. Guests could join the experience in Hobart or with pickups in the Huon Valley or they could meet the party at Recherché bay. It would be fully inclusive of transport, basic walking gear, park entry fees, food and accommodation and is designed to cater for small groups and two guides per trip. The proposal seeks to enhance Tasmania’s global reputation of providing outstanding tourism experiences in its wilderness areas and it will also raise the profile and visitation of the Huon Valley and Far South regions. It would also help develop South East Cape into one of Australia’s popular “must-do” trips for the touring visitor in the same way other extremities of the continent such as Cape York (north), Cape Byron (east) and Shark Bay (west) are viewed.
