  • Local Native Plant Species for Superb Fairy-Wren Habitat
    Suggested local native plant species for Superb Fairy-wren habitat Extract from the report, Superb Fairy-Wren Habitat in Glebe and Forest Lodge, S. Stevens, The Glebe Society, Sydney, 2008. The plants listed are thought to have been indigenous to inner-western Sydney prior to white settlement. Emphasis in this list is on plants that should be fairly easily obtainable, but a few that may be difficult to obtain at present, such as Epacrids and some Peas, and plants such as Epacrids have traditionally been difficult to propagate, have been included to indicate the variety of plants that are suitable for Superb Fairy-wren habitat, and with a view that these plant species may be available in the future. Indeed, highlighting them as suitable small bird habitat may influence some nurseries to add them to their stocklists.

    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.

  • Labiatae) in South-Eastern Australia
    319 Contributions to the systematics of Prostanthera (Labiatae) in south-eastern Australia Barry J. Conn Abstract Conn, B.J. (Royal Botanic Gardens, Mrs Macquaries Road, Sydney NSW 2000, Australia) 1997. Contributions to the systematics of Prostanthera (Labiatae) in south-eastern Australia. Telopea 7(4): 319–332. Prostanthera cuneata is regarded as endemic to mainland Australia, with the type material based on cultivated material grown in Formosa garden, Tasmania. The new species Prostanthera galbraithiae B.J.Conn is here formally described. A morphological re-evaluation of Prostanthera melissifolia concludes that this species is endemic to Victoria. Prostanthera melissifolia sensu Conn, from the Northern Tablelands of New South Wales, is P. caerulea R.Br., and Prostanthera sp. aff. melissifolia sensu Beauglehole, from East Gippsland (Victoria), probably is P. incisa R.Br. (s. lat.). A full description, habitat notes, distribution map and illustration of each of the first three species are provided. Introduction This paper presents the conclusions of revisionary studies into the genus Prostanthera section Prostanthera, arising particularly from work towards the preparation of an account of the genus for the forthcoming Flora of Victoria, volume 4. Terminology follows Conn (1984), except inflorescence terminology as modified by Conn (1995). Distribution information for Victoria follows Conn (1993). 1. Distribution of Prostanthera cuneata Benth. Previously, Prostanthera cuneata has been regarded as occurring in New South Wales, Tasmania and Victoria. Although the type specimen of this species (Gunn 725, 7 Dec. 1842) is stated to have been collected from the ‘South Esk’ River, south of Launceston in Tasmania, Buchanan (1988, 1990) states that Gunn actually collected from ‘Formosa’ garden, on the estate of W.E.

  • Action Statement
    Action Statement Flora and Fauna Guarantee Act 1998 No. 2 31 Wellington Mint-bush Prosthanthera galbraithiae This Action Statement is based on a draft Recovery Plan prepared for this species by DSE under contract to the Australian Government Department of the Environment, Water, Heritage and the Arts. Description Wellington Mint-bush (Prostanthera galbraithiae ) is an erect or spreading shrub, 0.3–2 m tall (Walsh & Entwisle 1999). Young branches have a square- shaped cross-section, and are densely hairy between two faint lateral-running ridges and on nodes; the rest of the branch is hairless (Walsh & Entwisle 1999). The leaves are stalkless, arise in opposite pairs and have a slight aroma when crushed (Walsh & Entwisle 1999). They are linear, narrowly ovate or oblong, ~15 x 2 mm, mid green and mostly hairless (Walsh & Entwisle 1999). Flowers appear from September through to November, and are generally deep mauve to purple with deep mauve to purple spots in the throat. Distribution in Victoria The two upper petals form a hood and the three (Flora Information System DSE 2007) lower petals form a fan shape. The petals are 7 - 10 mm long; the middle petal of the lower three, however, is broader and longer than each of the two upper petals (Walsh & Entwisle 1999). The stamens have anthers which lack a basal appendage. The surrounding calyx is divided into two lips, the upper lip (curved backwards) grows to 5.5 mm in length. Eight to 24 flowers appear in a leafy, branched inflorescence that may be branched or unbranched. Distribution Abundance Wellington Mint-bush is restricted to the Holey It is estimated that over 1000 individuals exist in Plains State Park in the Gippsland Plains in Victoria 13 populations.

We discuss the landscapes of Botany Bay and particularly of the historic landing place at Kurnell (lat 34˚ 00’ S, long 151˚ 13’ E) (about 16 km south of central Sydney), as described in the journals of Lieutenant James Cook and Joseph Banks on the Endeavour voyage in 1770. We list 132 plant species that were collected at Botany Bay by Banks and Daniel Solander, the first scientific collections of Australian flora. The list is based on a critical assessment of unpublished lists compiled by authors who had access to the collection of the British Museum (now Natural History Museum), together with species from material at National Herbarium of New South Wales that has not been previously available. The list includes Bidens pilosa which has been previously regarded as an introduced species. In 1770 the Europeans set foot on Aboriginal land of the Dharawal people. Since that time the landscape has been altered in response to a succession of different land-uses; farming and grazing, commemorative tree planting, parkland planting, and pleasure ground and tourist visitation.

  • A Regional Examination of the Mistletoe Host Species Inventory
    354 Cunninghamia 8(3): 2004 Downey, Examination of the mistletoe host inventory A regional examination of the mistletoe host species inventory Paul Owen Downey Centre for Plant Biodiversity Research, CSIRO Plant Industry, GPO Box 1600, Canberra, ACT 2601, AUSTRALIA. Present Address Institute of Conservation Biology, School of Biological Sciences, University of Wollongong, Wollongong, NSW 2522 AUSTRALIA. [email protected] Abstract: Downey (1998) collated an inventory of mistletoe host species based on herbaria records for every aerial mistletoe species (families Loranthaceae and Viscaceae) in Australia. In this paper the representative nature of those host lists is examined in an extensive field survey of mistletoes and their host species in south-eastern New South Wales (including Australian Capital Territory). Four new host species not in the 1998 inventory, and eight new mistletoe-host combinations (i.e. a previously recorded host but not for that particular mistletoe species) were collected. These new records were distributed throughout the survey area. Interestingly, these new host-mistletoe combinations were for mistletoe species that were well represented in the national inventory (i.e. with many herbarium collections and numerous host species). The initial inventory was incomplete, at least for south-eastern New South Wales, indicating the need for (i) more targeted surveys similar to this one, and/or (ii) regular updates of the host inventory based on voucher specimens. A possible reasons why information on host-mistletoe combinations is incomplete may be that such combinations may be dynamic (i.e. mistletoe species may be expanding their suite of potential hosts, either fortuitously or as result of evolutionary pressures).

Their garden comprises three and a half acres of Australian plants in a setting inspired by open grassy woodlands. Those who attended a previous meeting at Glendeuart will notice significant developments including terraced landscaping and dry stone walling to accommodate a growing collection of Grevilleas and other Australian plants. Grevillea arenaria identifying features Photo by Mark Noake Australian Plant Society South East NSW Newsletter 120 July 2016 Page 1 An introductory talk will include a short tour of our Southeast Group’s website, showing how to easily access a wealth of information. Then follows a simple explanation of the plant features used by botanists when identifying Grevilleas, which will be illustrated with lots of images and no exams. Carolyn and Mark’s inspiration for growing Grevillea species as found in the wild and the fun to be had trying to protect rare and endangered plants will be discussed. Support will be sought on dealing with their inability to walk past a “different” plant in a nursery without purchasing it.
