    DOI: 10.18195/issn.0313-122x.78(2).2015.485-513 Records of the Western Australian Museum, Supplement 78: 485–513 (2015). The riparian fl ora and plant communities of the Pilbara region of Western Australia M.N. Lyons Department of Parks and Wildlife, Science and Conservation Division, Kieran McNamara Conservation Science Centre, Locked Bag 104, Bentley Delivery Centre, Western Australia 6983, Australia. Email: [email protected] Abstract – A survey of riparian fl ora and plant communities was undertaken at 98 wetlands and rivers in the Pilbara region of Western Australia. Sampling was quadrat-based, with fl oristics, surface soils and wetland attributes recorded. Selected sites captured the full range of Pilbara wetland types including springs, river pools, claypans, salt marshes and rock pools. A total of 455 taxa was recorded from the survey sites, representing ca. 25% of the known fl ora of the Pilbara bioregion. The fl ora is dominated by taxa with Eremaean and tropical affi nities, with only six taxa endemic in the region. Of recorded taxa known from four or fewer bioregions, most are shared with the adjacent Carnarvon and Gascoyne bioregions rather than the adjoining internally draining deserts. Sixteen taxa of conservation signifi cance were documented, with claypans, the Fortescue Marsh, and Millstream and Karijini National Park sites dominating occurrences of rare species. Eight major groups were defi ned by classifying wetlands in terms of species presence/absence data. Floristic patterning was strongly aligned with the major wetland types (geomorphic/hydrological) used in the primary sampling stratifi cation. A combination of wetland morphology/hydrological setting, site edaphic attributes and distance to the coast were dominant variables related to riparian fl oristic composition.

  • Gunnado Farm Bioblitz Results Compressed
    FINAL REPORT This project is supported byNACC NRM, Geraldton Streetwork Aboriginal Corporation through funding from the Australian Government’s National Landcare Program and the Western Australian Government's State NRM Program Gunnado Farm BioBlitz Drawing Inspiration From Nature The sun was shining and the wildflowers were blooming when more than 50 people joined the Gunnado BioBlitz – many were local Geraldton residents, but many also travelled up from Perth for the event. The 2018 Gunnado BioBlitz was hosted by the Northern Agricultural Catchments Council and Geraldton Streetwork Aboriginal Corporation at Gunado Farm near Walkaway. The Gunnado BioBlitz was a community project aimed at bringing together professional and amateur ecologists – and those interested in learning more about their natural environment. It involved collecting data on as many species, from as many different taxonomic groups as possible over a 24-hour time period. The event was opened with a heartfelt Welcome to Country was given from Wajarri Amangu man David Ronan – encouraging everyone to explore the local area, while also caring for the Country that has provided us with so much. Participants then moved into four main groups led by ‘eco-gurus’, with participants swapping between sessions and locations according to their skills or interests during the weekend. • Flora – Joshua Foster from Earth Stewardship • Birds – Janet Newell and Jan Checker from BirdLife Midwest-Geraldton • Critters – Joe Tonga from Natsync Environmental • Fauna Trapping – Anthony Desmond from Department of Biodiversity, Conservation and Attractions (with support from volunteer extraordinaire Corin Desmond) Twenty Elliott traps were set for the one night using universal bait (a smelly mixture of sardines, oats and peanut butter) and were set on Saturday morning and checked and pulled in on both Saturday afternoon and Sunday morning.

  • Part 1 Plant Communities of the NSW Western Plains
    383 New South Wales Vegetation Classification and Assessment: Part 1 Plant communities of the NSW Western Plains J.S. Benson*, C.B. Allen*, C. Togher** and J. Lemmon*** *Science and Public Programs, Royal Botanic Gardens and Domain Trust, Sydney, NSW 2000, AUSTRALIA. ** GIS Section NSW Department of Environment & Conservation, PO Box 1967 Hurstville, NSW 2220; ***Environment & Development Department, Wollongong City Council, Locked Bag 8821, South Coast Mail Centre, NSW 2521. Corresponding author email: [email protected] Abstract: For the Western Plains of New South Wales, 213 plant communities are classified and described and their protected area and threat status assessed. The communities are listed on the NSW Vegetation Classification and Assessment database (NSWVCA). The full description of the communities is placed on an accompanying CD together with a read-only version of the NSWVCA database. The NSW Western Plains is 45.5 million hectares in size and covers 57% of NSW. The vegetation descriptions are based on over 250 published and unpublished vegetation surveys and maps produced over the last 50 years (listed in a bibliography), rapid field checks and the expert knowledge on the vegetation. The 213 communities occur over eight Australian bioregions and eight NSW Catchment Management Authority areas. As of December 2005, 3.7% of the Western Plains was protected in 83 protected areas comprising 62 public conservation reserves and 21 secure property agreements. Only one of the eight bioregions has greater than 10% of its area represented in protected areas. 31 or 15% of the communities are not recorded from protected areas. 136 or 64% have less than 5% of their pre-European extent in protected areas.

    NANYA STATION, WESTERN NEW SOUTH WALES VEGETATION, FLORA AND FAUNA Prepared by Martin E. Westbrooke, Centre for Environmental Management, University of Ballarat Nanya Station, owned and managed by the University of Ballarat was purchased with assistance from the Department of Environment and Heritage. Ongoing management is supported by the Lower Murray Darling Catchment Management Authority FOREWORD 1 FOREWORD This booklet has been prepared as an introduction for visitors to Nanya. Nanya is managed for conservation, research and teaching and affords protection to highly significant environments including two endangered communities and seventeen endangered or vulnerable species. On your visit, please respect these values. NANYA STATION Nanya Station is located in the Scotia country of far western New South Wales and consists of the Nanya Western Lands Pastoral Lease 3281 – Perpetual Leasehold Lot 1244 in Deposited Plan 762778, Parish of Winnebaga, County of Tara. Nanya Homestead complex 2 BACKGROUND The Scotia region has one of the shortest stock grazing histories of western NSW. Along with five other properties, Nanya was created as a pastoral lease in 1927. Previously the area was part of the large Lake Victoria lease and stock grazing occurred only in wet years (Withers 1989). The original lease was taken up by Gordon Cummings in 1927. He first dug a dam near the southeast corner of the property. A larger ground tank and homestead at the site of the present complex was later established. An area around the homestead was cleared and cropped to provide feed for the horses used in digging the earth tanks. The ruins of the original building are located between the shearing shed and Homestead Tank.

SPOT5 imagery was used to map 340 wetlands across the Pilliga Outwash. A total of 240 plots within 31 wetlands explored composition and species richness in relation to water depth and wetland size. The predominant community described is the species-rich herbfield of shallow basin wetlands, along with the structurally distinct but the less common sedgeland/herbfield of the deeper ‘tank’ wetlands and a single wetland with a floristically depauperate Diplachne fusca wet grassland. A total of 131 taxa were recorded including three species listed under the NSW Threatened Species Conservation Act (1995): Eriocaulon australasicum, Lepidium monoplocoides and Myriophyllum implicatum. New records for an additional six taxa were recorded for the North Western Plains. 11% of taxa were exotic in origin.

Jensen ex Reveal, 1996 Classe: Rosopsida Batsch, 1788 Sottoclasse: Asteridae Takht., 1967 Superordine: Asteranae Takht., 1967 Ordine: Asterales Lindl., 1833 Famiglia: Asteraceae Dumort., 1822 Le Asteraceae Dumortier, 1822, molto conosciute anche come Compositae , sono una vasta famiglia di piante dicotiledoni dell’ordine Asterales . Rappresenta la famiglia di spermatofite con il più elevato numero di specie. Le asteracee sono piante di solito erbacee con infiorescenza che è normalmente un capolino composto di singoli fiori che possono essere tutti tubulosi (es. Conyza ) oppure tutti forniti di una linguetta detta ligula (es. Taraxacum ) o, infine, essere tubulosi al centro e ligulati alla periferia (es. margherita). La famiglia è diffusa in tutto il mondo, ad eccezione dell’Antartide, ed è particolarmente rappresentate nelle regioni aride tropicali e subtropicali ( Artemisia ), nelle regioni mediterranee, nel Messico, nella regione del Capo in Sud-Africa e concorre alla formazione di foreste e praterie dell’Africa, del sud-America e dell’Australia. Le Asteraceae sono una delle famiglie più grandi delle Angiosperme e comprendono piante alimentari, produttrici

  • Plant Life of Western Australia
    CHAPTER 4 ECOLOGICAL CHARACTER The ecological character of the Eremaean vegetation differs very little in its more important features from the nature of the xeromorphic forms of the Southwest Province. In accordance with the uniformity of the environment it does not show any of the rich grading of the south west. However, to compensate for this deficiency the constitutional characters of the elements attain a greater freedom. To what extent finer details and pecu- larities of the Eremean vegetation result from this is uncertain at present. For, despite the work of Spencer Moore and my own discoveries, most of the Eremean investigation still lies in the future. This is especially so since the dissimilarity between successive years requires a long period of observation before adequate satisfactory information is obtained. a. Lifeforms As an area of highly developed xeromorphism the Western Australian Eremaea represents to a high degree the well-known contrast between a groundwater flora and a rain flora. The groundwater [perennial] flora as already mentioned exhibits a clear preference for the region south of 0o S. We meet tree-like growths, particularly Eucalyptus and Casuarina there, whilst further north they are only found in specially favourable spots. Details will be given in the description of the formations. In general, woody growths are represented by shrubs. In comparison with the Southwest Province there is a marked diminution in the small shrubs which only remain on the sand in very extreme xeromorphic form. They depend on the uncertain help of the winter rain for the complete wakening of their functions. Very often they exhibit the signs of hard seasons - withered branches and flower buds and fruit dried up before ever becoming ripe.

  • Forest Structure and Composition Changes in a Tropical Montane
    AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Theresa Ramona Arechiga for the degree of Master of Science in Forest Resources presented on January 2, 2014. Title: Forest Structure and Composition Changes in a Tropical Montane Cloud Forest Surrounding an Illegal Village in Bale Mountains National Park: Anthropogenic Disturbance along Forest Resource Trails and Implications for Conservation and Management Strategies Abstract approved: John D. Bailey Bale Mountains National Park (BMNP) is currently considered the most important conservation area in Ethiopia. BMNP was established over forty years ago to protect Ethiopian endemic fauna and to preserve an array of habitat types including Afroalpine, Afromontane, and the second largest natural humid forest (Harenna forest) left in Ethiopia. In the 1980’s and 1990’s assertions of a potential seasonal tropical montane cloud forest were made concerning areas in the upper Harenna forest. Despite these claims no additional evidence or research has been provided to verify the presence of a tropical montane cloud forest. Since the initial claims BMNP has faced increasing human and livestock population growth throughout the park including the elevation belt believed to contain the tropical montane cloud forest. This observational study was undertaken in Rira, the largest permanent village in the 2700 m to 3200 m above sea level belt. There were two goals to this research: one, to document rainfall amounts, temperature averages, and provide evidence of forest structure and characteristics consistent with tropical montane cloud forests; second, to identify the strongest detectible gradients affecting current forest structure and composition of herbaceous, shrub, and tree communities. A stationary weather station was installed at BMNP Subheadquarters at 2800 m to collect pertinent weather data.
