  • Onslow Metals Turtle and Range Deposits Level 1 Flora Survey June
    Onslow Metals Turtle and Range Deposits Level 1 Flora Survey June 2011 Dr. Belinda Newman (Author) Newman Environmental 130 Riverview Ave South Guildford WA, 6055 Ph: 0433768578 ABN: 85 437 176 819 Email: [email protected] This page has been left intentionally blank Executive Summary Onslow Metals propose to conduct drilling and exploration activities and activate a quarry over the Turtle and Range tenements, approximately 80km south of Onslow. A reconnaissance survey and level one flora report were prepared for the site. The site has had some historic drilling and exploration activities, resulting in localised vegetation disturbance. Turtle Deposit tenement is 50ha in size and Range tenement is 120ha in size. The area that Onslow Metals will potentially disturb is approximately 15ha. Searches of the DEC databases revealed that two Priority flora were known to occur within the vicinity of the site. Neither of these species was observed during the reconnaissance survey. Following a review of other surveys within the area, and the habitat preferences of these two species, it was deemed that these species do not occur on the Onslow Metals tenements. The vegetation at the site ranges in condition from Good to Poor condition. Vegetation which is in Good condition has the potential to deteriorate over time with two introduced species recorded for the site having a „high‟ rating as an environmental weed. The site does not contain any Threatened or Priority Ecological Communities and the vegetation units are well represented in a regional context. As there are no Threatened or Priority flora, the vegetation and flora of the site has no conservation significance.

Family Fabaceae Distribution Occurs in the Pilbara region of north-western W.A. where it is known from a single collection along the railway access rd between Tom Price and Karratha. Description Resinous shrub to 4 m high. Bark red ‘Minni Ritchi’. Branchlets hirtellous. Stipules persistent, triangular, c. 1 mm long, scarious, brown. Phyllodes linear-oblanceolate, narrowed to a fine, brown, subulate, innocuous point 1–1.5 mm long, upper margin clearly broader than lower margin, 4–8 cm long, 3–4 mm wide, not rigid, ±straight, sparsely hirtellous; longitudinal nerves numerous with central one most evident, minor nerves often longitudinally anastomosing. Inflorescences simple; peduncles 15–30 mm long, hirtellous; spikes 10–15 mm long. Flowers 5-merous; calyx dissected for about ½ its length into oblong lobes. Pods (immature) narrowly oblong, flat, 2–6 cm long, c. 8 mm wide, mostly straight, sometimes twisted in the longitudinal plane, obscurely reticulate, with dense, short, soft, straight, white hairs; marginal nerves thickened. Seeds (immature) oblique. Habitat Grows in skeletal soil along a drainage line among low rocky hills. Specimens W.A.: between Tom Price and Karratha along railway access track, E.Thoma 853 (PERTH). Notes The putative hybrid status of this entity is suggested by field observations and from a critical examination of herbarium material. It is intermediate between the two parents in phyllode width.

The recognition of sign such as tracks, scats, diggings or burrows is widely used to detect rare or elusive species. We describe the type of sign that can be used to confirm the presence of the greater bilby (Macrotis lagotis)in comparison with sign that should be used only to flag potential presence. Clear track imprints of the front and hind feet, diggings at the base of plants to extract root-dwelling larvae, and scats commonly found at diggings can be used individually, or in combination, to verify presence, whereas track gait pattern, diggings in the open, and burrows should be used to flag potential bilby activity but not to verify presence. A protocol to assess potential activity and verify bilby presence is provided. We provide advice on the application of a plot-based technique to systematically search for sign and produce data for the estimation of regional occupancy.

  • A Targeted Flora Survey of the Naturebank Envelope in Millstream Chichester National Park
    A TARGETED FLORA SURVEY OF THE NATUREBANK ENVELOPE IN MILLSTREAM CHICHESTER NATIONAL PARK Submitted by Robert Davis and John Huisman Western Australian Herbarium, Science and Conservation Division, Department of Parks and Wildlife To Tourism section Parks and Visitor Services Department of Parks and Wildlife And Pilbara Region Department of Parks and Wildlife April 2017 Summary A flora survey was undertaken in the Naturebank envelope at Palm Pool in Millstream Chichester National Park, Western Australia, in order to identify vascular plant species in the project area and to highlight any of conservation significance. The survey was conducted over two days in March 2017 in good seasonal conditions and encompassed the area surrounding Palm Pool and associated river and access envelopes. A total of 110 taxa were recorded, including four conservation-listed taxa: Livistona alfredii (P4), Goodenia nuda (P4), Pentalepis trichodesmoides subsp. hispida (P2) and Teucrium pilbaranum (P2). Introduction The flora survey outlined herein has been undertaken in response to a proposed Naturebank ecotourism development in Millstream Chichester National Park. This ecologically and culturally significant park, which is dominated by the rugged Chichester Range, is located in the Pilbara bioregion of Western Australia, some 150 kilometres by road south-east of Karratha. The northern aspect of the Fortescue River at Palm Pool had been identified as a suitable site for the proposed development. The footprint measures at 107ha with a 4.84km boundary. The Palm Pool development envelope (Figures 1, 2) occurs in the Chichester IBRA subregion (Department of the Environment, Water, Heritage and the Arts 2013) and sits on an elevated plain, with undulating, rocky hills adjoining the riparian zone of the Fortescue River.

    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.
