While phyltode nerve number and inflorescenceform are useful charactersfor recognizing ,,uninerves-Racemosae"species these are not completelyreliable charactersfor ascribingtaxa to this (artificial) group. For example, A. difformis R. Baker has 2 longitudinal nerveson each face of its "Acaciq phyllodes yet its inflorescence and carpological characterssuggest its inclusion in the microbotrya Group"; similarly, A. binen'ata DC. and A. wardellii Tind have Prominently 2- or 3-nervedphyllodes but are clearly relatedto A. bancrofrii (l-nerved phyllodes)which is placed in the "Acacia microbotrya Group" (seenotes below underA. brumalis sp.nov). There are also a number oftaxa, especiallyftom southwestwestern Austxalia,with 2 nervesalong the (often thickened)upper margin of the phyllodes, thus making a total of 5 nervesper phyllode (2 along the upper margins, I on each face and I along the lower margin); thesetaxa uncommonly have racemoseinflotescences (e.g. A. scleroclada sp. nov. below). Similarly there are some caseswhere species with simple "Acaciq inflorescencesare closely related to racemosetaxa, e g. A synchronicia Maslin in the victoriae cfor]p,, (Maslin 1992). The length of the raceme varies considerablybut within section Phyllodineae thereseems to be a significanttaxonomic discontinuity between those taxa having very reducedracemes (the axesgenerally not aboveabout I mm long and supportingI or 2 heads)and those having more elongatedracemes with more numerousheads. A recent study by Brain and Maslin (in prep.) using serologicaldata suggeststhat specieswith very reducedracemes are most closely related io non-ru""-or" speciesand that there is little or no relationshipbetween this combined group and the ,,Uninerves-Racemosae",These relationshipsbased on biochemical data wele an unexpected result ofthe Brain and Maslin study,however, ifthey arecoroborated by other evidencethen a major rearrangementof the classificationof sectionPhyllodineae will be needed.

  • Assessment of Dalwallinu Shire Wattles Considered Prospective for Human Food
    Assessment of Dalwallinu Shire Wattles considered prospective for human food A Report Produced For The Shire of Dalwallinu By Bruce Maslin and Jordan Reid December 2008 1 2 Assessment of Dalwallinu Shire Wattles considered prospective for human food By Bruce Maslin & Jordan Reid Western Australian Herbarium, Department of Environment and Conservation, Kensington, W.A. Preamble Following a request from Mr Robert Nixon, President of the Dalwallinu Shire Council, and a meeting with Shire Councillors McFarlane, Carter, Dinnie and Sanderson, CEO Crispin and Brent Parkinson, we undertook a quick assessment of the Acacia flora of the Dalwallinu Shire with a view to identifying those species that might have potential for cultivation as a source of commercial quantities of seed for human consumption. The work was conducted between 2-5 December 2008. Introduction There are about 80 different Acacia (Wattle) species that occur in the Shire of Dalwallinu. Ten of these species were included in Edible Wattle Seeds of Southern Australia (Maslin et al. 1998) as having some potential for development as new crop plants as a source of seed for human consumption. From the outset it is recommended that readers familiarize themselves with Maslin et al. (1998) and Simpson & Chudleigh (2001) because these two works provide much valuable information relevant to the domestication of Acacia as human food crop in low rainfall areas. Little or no attempt has been made here to reproduce the information contained in these works (we have simply focused on identifying those species in the Dalwallinu Shire that we consider as prospective for development as new seed crops).

  • MVG 16 Acacia Shrublands DRAFT
    MVG 16 - ACACIA SHRUBLANDS Acacia hillii, Tanami Desert, NT (Photo: D. Keith) Overview The overstorey of MVG 16 is dominated by multi-stemmed acacia shrubs. The most widespread species is Acacia aneura (mulga). Mulga vegetation takes on a variety of structural expressions and is consequently classified partly within MVG 16 where the overstorey is dominated by multi-stemmed shrubs, partly within MVG 6 in accordance with the Kyoto Protocol definition of forest cover in Australia (trees > 2 m tall and crown cover > 20%, foliage projective cover > 10%); and partly within MVG 13 where the woody dominants are predominantly single-stemmed, but with crown cover less than 20%. Occurs where annual rainfall is below 250mm in southern Australia and below 350mm in northern Australia (Hodgkinson 2002; Foulkes et al. 2014). Species composition varies along rainfall gradients, with substrate and rainfall seasonality (Beadle 1981; Johnson and Burrows 1994). Transitions into MVG 13 Acacia woodlands with higher rainfall and varying soil types. Is most commonly found on red earth soils (Hodgkinson 2002).

  • Post-Fire Recovery of Woody Plants in the New England Tableland Bioregion
    Post-fire recovery of woody plants in the New England Tableland Bioregion Peter J. ClarkeA, Kirsten J. E. Knox, Monica L. Campbell and Lachlan M. Copeland Botany, School of Environmental and Rural Sciences, University of New England, Armidale, NSW 2351, AUSTRALIA. ACorresponding author; email: [email protected] Abstract: The resprouting response of plant species to fire is a key life history trait that has profound effects on post-fire population dynamics and community composition. This study documents the post-fire response (resprouting and maturation times) of woody species in six contrasting formations in the New England Tableland Bioregion of eastern Australia. Rainforest had the highest proportion of resprouting woody taxa and rocky outcrops had the lowest. Surprisingly, no significant difference in the median maturation length was found among habitats, but the communities varied in the range of maturation times. Within these communities, seedlings of species killed by fire, mature faster than seedlings of species that resprout. The slowest maturing species were those that have canopy held seed banks and were killed by fire, and these were used as indicator species to examine fire immaturity risk. Finally, we examine whether current fire management immaturity thresholds appear to be appropriate for these communities and find they need to be amended.

The management body intending to nominate a site for inclusion in the East Asian - Australasian Flyway Site Network is requested to complete a Site Information Sheet. The Site Information Sheet will provide the basic information of the site and detail how the site meets the criteria for inclusion in the Flyway Site Network. When there is a new nomination or an SIS update, the following sections with an asterisk (*), from Questions 1-14 and Question 30, must be filled or updated at least so that it can justify the international importance of the habitat for migratory waterbirds. 2. The Site Information Sheet is based on the Ramsar Information Sheet. If the site proposed for the Flyway Site Network is an existing Ramsar site then the documentation process can be simplified. 3. Once completed, the Site Information Sheet (and accompanying map(s)) should be submitted to the Flyway Partnership Secretariat. Compilers should provide an electronic (MS Word) copy of the Information Sheet and, where possible, digital versions (e.g. shapefile) of all maps. -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

  • Synoptic Overview of Exotic Acacia, Senegalia and Vachellia (Caesalpinioideae, Mimosoid Clade, Fabaceae) in Egypt
    plants Article Synoptic Overview of Exotic Acacia, Senegalia and Vachellia (Caesalpinioideae, Mimosoid Clade, Fabaceae) in Egypt Rania A. Hassan * and Rim S. Hamdy Botany and Microbiology Department, Faculty of Science, Cairo University, Giza 12613, Egypt; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Abstract: For the first time, an updated checklist of Acacia, Senegalia and Vachellia species in Egypt is provided, focusing on the exotic species. Taking into consideration the retypification of genus Acacia ratified at the Melbourne International Botanical Congress (IBC, 2011), a process of reclassification has taken place worldwide in recent years. The review of Acacia and its segregates in Egypt became necessary in light of the available information cited in classical works during the last century. In Egypt, various taxa formerly placed in Acacia s.l., have been transferred to Acacia s.s., Acaciella, Senegalia, Parasenegalia and Vachellia. The present study is a contribution towards clarifying the nomenclatural status of all recorded species of Acacia and its segregate genera. This study recorded 144 taxa (125 species and 19 infraspecific taxa). Only 14 taxa (four species and 10 infraspecific taxa) are indigenous to Egypt (included now under Senegalia and Vachellia). The other 130 taxa had been introduced to Egypt during the last century. Out of the 130 taxa, 79 taxa have been recorded in literature. The focus of this study is the remaining 51 exotic taxa that have been traced as living species in Egyptian gardens or as herbarium specimens in Egyptian herbaria. The studied exotic taxa are accommodated under Acacia s.s. (24 taxa), Senegalia (14 taxa) and Vachellia (13 taxa).
