The pandemic has made essential self distancing and quarantining to arrest the spread of the Corona virus. As a result, most APS activities have been shelved for the time being. Being in isolation at home has been a mixed blessing. -

Final Report to Australian Flora Foundation October 2008
1 Do heat and smoke affect the permeability of the Grevillea seed coat to large molecular weight compounds? Flowers and ripening fruits of Grevillea linearifolia Final Report to Australian Flora Foundation October 2008 Publication from Grant: Briggs, Candida L., Morris, E. Charles. (2008) Seed-coat dormancy in Grevillea linearifolia: little change in permeability to an apoplastic tracer after treatment with smoke and heat. Annals of Botany 101: 623 – 632. 2 Abstract Seeds of east Australian Grevillea species germinate in response to fire-related cues such as heat and smoke. The seed coat is responsible for dormancy in G. linearifolia: a possible dormancy mechanism is the existence of barriers to diffusion of large molecular weight compounds in the seed coat. Such internal barriers are known to be involved in the dormancy of fire-responsive seeds overseas eg Emmenanthe pendulioflora, and the permeability of these barriers is altered by smoke. This model was tested for G. linearifolia by investigating the permeability of the seed coat to diffusion of large molecular weight compounds, and whether this changed after exposure to fire cues. The germination characteristics of seeds to heat, smoke, and combined exposure was tested. The penetration of the dye Lucifer Yellow into intact seeds was examined after 24 and 48 hours of exposure, and the penetration of the dye from the inside of the seed coat outwards was examined after 24 hours. Histochemical staining with Nile Red and Acridine Orange was used to locate cuticles, suberin and lignin. About one-fifth of untreated seeds germinated; both heat by itself, and smoke by itself, increased germination; greatest germination (up to 80%) was observed after treatment with both fire cues. -

Jervis Bay Territory Page 1 of 50 21-Jan-11 Species List for NRM Region (Blank), Jervis Bay Territory
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. -

Rare Or Threatened Vascular Plant Species of Wollemi National Park, Central Eastern New South Wales
Rare or threatened vascular plant species of Wollemi National Park, central eastern New South Wales. Stephen A.J. Bell Eastcoast Flora Survey PO Box 216 Kotara Fair, NSW 2289, AUSTRALIA Abstract: Wollemi National Park (c. 32o 20’– 33o 30’S, 150o– 151oE), approximately 100 km north-west of Sydney, conserves over 500 000 ha of the Triassic sandstone environments of the Central Coast and Tablelands of New South Wales, and occupies approximately 25% of the Sydney Basin biogeographical region. 94 taxa of conservation signiicance have been recorded and Wollemi is recognised as an important reservoir of rare and uncommon plant taxa, conserving more than 20% of all listed threatened species for the Central Coast, Central Tablelands and Central Western Slopes botanical divisions. For a land area occupying only 0.05% of these divisions, Wollemi is of paramount importance in regional conservation. Surveys within Wollemi National Park over the last decade have recorded several new populations of signiicant vascular plant species, including some sizeable range extensions. This paper summarises the current status of all rare or threatened taxa, describes habitat and associated species for many of these and proposes IUCN (2001) codes for all, as well as suggesting revisions to current conservation risk codes for some species. For Wollemi National Park 37 species are currently listed as Endangered (15 species) or Vulnerable (22 species) under the New South Wales Threatened Species Conservation Act 1995. An additional 50 species are currently listed as nationally rare under the Briggs and Leigh (1996) classiication, or have been suggested as such by various workers. Seven species are awaiting further taxonomic investigation, including Eucalyptus sp. -
