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. All species names have been confirmed as valid species names, but it is not possible to confirm all species locations.

Th is review is a contribution to Melaleuca knowledge and describes fi ve important essential oil-producing species and two subspecies of Melaleuca in terms of their essential oil chemical composition, medicinal applications, and leaf morphoanatomy. Some relationships between essential oil composition of these species and important biological activities are presented. Useful parameters for the certifi cation of the essential oils are also highlighted.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This review of the environmental impacts of Myrtle Rust in Australia is accompanied by an adjunct document, Myrtle Rust in Australia – a draft Action Plan. The Action Plan was developed in 2018 in consultation with experts, stakeholders and the public. The intent of the draft Action Plan is to provide a guiding framework for a specifically environmental dimension to Australia’s response to Myrtle Rust – that is, the conservation of native biodiversity at risk.

Canberra Bird Notes
Canberra bird notes Volume 3 Number 11 July 1977 EDITORIAL As this is being read, work is already progressing on the major article for our next issue - the Bird Report, 1 July 1976 to 30 June 1977. These annual reports are the most important things we publish; we have an obligation to provide a continuing picture of the status of birds in the A.C.T. for the future. Were do we get the necessary information? Much of it is based on the regularly reported notes in the Observations Book available at all meetings. We also rely greatly on those who do regular surveys in the suburbs or elsewhere. Every member could and should add something to our knowledge in this area. Please forward results of regular observations as well as individual species notes to Grahame Clark no later than the July meeting. The Editorial In CBN vol. 3 no. 8 also refers. CBN 3 11 1 July 1977 SOME COMMENTS ON SCIENTIFIC COLLECTION H.J. Frith The title of the October 1976 meeting 'Scientific collecting - good or bad' suggests that a clear-cut answer is being sought. The subject, collecting, is very broad and one in which strong and opposing views are to be expected. I do not think a simple answer is possible to the general question but, in response to an invitation from the Editor, I provide some views that might help some people to refine their own ideas. In vol 3 no. 9 Drs Schodde and van Tets have described some of the reasons for collecting birds in taxonomic and phylogenetic studies but little has been said of the need for collected specimens in ecological research.

Street Tree Identification Manual
Randwick City Council Street Tree Identification Manual Volume 5 - Tree Species M-R Compiled by Randwick City Council’s Tree Management Officer October 2007 Foreword This manual is intended to give the reader an overview of the characteristics and cultural requirements of each of the tree species nominated in Randwick City Council’s Street Tree Masterplan. Each species is identified firstly by its Botanical name - with a phonetic spelling directly underneath – followed by the Common name in the top right hand corner of the page. Underneath the Common name are details of the tree, including the origin of the species, the season in which it flowers (if appropriate) and a general description of its mature size and overall form. A photograph of a typical example of each tree species is provided to allow readers the opportunity to get an idea of the mature dimensions and overall form of the subject tree/shrub. The size dimensions specified in the manual are the average mature sizes that could be expected of nominated tree species growing within the City of Randwick and take into account various elements such as topography, exposure to wind, soil type, depth of soil, annual rainfall, etc. A brief description of the tree’s cultural requirements and preferred planting situation is also given – with particular emphasis placed on its suitability as a street and/or park tree and whether it is suitable for planting in confined areas or under overhead powerlines. Immediately underneath this description are the designated precincts where the tree is nominated for planting within Council’s Street Tree Masterplan.

An Assessment of Melaleuca (Myrtaceae) As Invasive Species in South Africa
An assessment of Melaleuca (Myrtaceae) as invasive species in South Africa Llewellyn E. O. Jacobs Thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science at Stellenbosch University, Department of Botany and Zoology Principal supervisor: Prof. John R. Wilson Co-supervisor: Prof. David M. Richardson Faculty of Science December 2016 Declaration By submitting this thesis/dissertation electronically, I declare that the entirety of the work contained therein is my own, original work, that I am the sole author thereof (save to the extent explicitly otherwise stated), that reproduction and publication thereof by Stellenbosch University will not infringe any third party rights and that I have not previously in its entirety or in part submitted it for obtaining any qualification. Date: December 2016 Chapters 2, 3, and 4 have been published (chapter 4 is in press). Chapter 5 is presented in the style of a journal manuscript. Work on Chapter 2 was started as part of a BSc Hons project in 2012, but this was expanded and improved on as part of my MSc. More details on contributions to the thesis are provided at the start of each specific chapter. Figures and tables are inserted in the text near first referencing and are therefore not listed in the Table of Contents. This thesis contains a single bibliography to minimise duplication of referencing across the chapters. 2 Thesis outline Evaluating potentially invasive plants is an important part of invasive species management. Reports of several naturalized and invasive Melaleuca species in South Africa prompted an investigation into which species are in the country and of these which pose a risk.
