  • Waterloo Urban and Industrial Expansion Flora and Fauna Survey
    Shire of Dardanup Waterloo Urban and Industrial Expansion Flora and Fauna Survey March 2015 Executive summary This report is subject to, and must be read in conjunction with, the limitations set out in Section 1.4 and the assumptions and qualifications contained throughout the Report. The Greater Bunbury Strategy and Structure Plan identified a potential significant urban expansion area located to the east of the Eaton locality and an industrial expansion area in Waterloo, in the Shire of Dardanup. The Shire of Dardanup (the Shire) and the Department of Planning have commenced preparation of District Structure Plans (DSP) for the urban expansion area and the industrial expansion area. The DSP will be informed by several technical studies including flora and fauna surveys. The Shire has commissioned GHD Pty Ltd (GHD) to undertake a flora and fauna survey and reporting for the Project. The Project Area is situated in the locality of Waterloo in the Shire of Dardanup. The Project Area includes the urban development area to the north of the South- west Highway (SWH) and the industrial development area to the south of the SWH. GHD undertook a desktop assessment of the Project Area and a flora and fauna field assessment with the first phase conducted from 13 to 14 August, 2014 and the second phase conducted from 29 to 31 October 2014. The purpose of this assessment was to identify the parts of the Project Area that have high, moderate and low ecological values so that the Shire can develop the DSP in consideration of these ecological values. This assessment identified the biological features of the Project Area and the key results are as follows.

(Lentibulariaceae) commonly known as Golden Bladderwort Sanjeet Kumar, Sunil S Thorat, Gopinath was observed from the urban area of Manipur, North East, India, the plant was found at 780 MSL. The morphological characteristics which describe this species are discussed Mondal, PD Singh, RK Labala, LA Singh, BG together with its associated species, distribution in Imphal, Manipur and ecology. The Somkuwar, B Thongam medicinal values of the species are documented and recommended for the conservation Institute of Bioresources and Sustainable Development, Imphal, Manipur, India of this plant species in Manipur, India. Keywords: Imphal, Manipur, lentibulariaceae, utricularia Correspondence: Sanjeet Kumar, Institute of Bioresources and Sustainable Development, Imphal, Manipur, India, Email , , Received: May 07, 2018 | Published: January 07, 2019 Introduction The genus Utricularia L. represents about 38 species in India and about 2 species was earlier reported in Manipur.1 The authors found Utricularia aurea (Figure 1) in an urban area (Langol) of Imphal West, Manipur.

  • A Revision of the Genus Kunzea (Myrtaceae) I
    J. Adelaide Bot. Gard. 17: 29-106 (1996) A REVISION OF THE GENUS KUNZEA (MYRTACEAE) I. THE WESTERN AUSTRALIAN SECTION ZEA1VUK H.R. Toelken State Herbarium of South Australia, Botanic Gardens of Adelaide North Terrace, Adelaide, South Australia 5000 Abstract Within Kunzea sect. Zeanuk, 21 species in three subsections are described and accompanied by discussion on their affinities based on morphological and anatomical evidence. Numerous natural putative hybrids are briefly discussed under the taxon placed first in the hybrid formulae. The paper includes publication of (a) 16 new taxa: sect. Zeanuk, subsect. Arborescentes, subsect. Floridae, subsect. Globosae, K acuminata, K.ciliata, K. cincinnata, K clavata, K. glabrescens, K. newbeyi, K. rostrata, K similis, K. spathulata, K. ericifolia (Sm.)Rchb. ex Heynh. subsp. subulata, K. micrantha Schauer subsp. hirtiflora and subsp. petiolata, and (b) one new combination: K. micrantha Schauer subsp. oligandra (Turcz.)Toelken. Introduction Schauer(1844) distinguished seven species of Kunzea from Western Australia in the first volume on plants collected by Preiss, and described an eighth in the second volume (Schauer 1848). Bentham (1867) rearranged the species and placed most of them in his sect. Eukunzea, which largely agrees with the present sect. Zeanuk except that it is no longer considered to be the typical section of the genus, because, when Kzinzea was conserved (Toelken 1981, 1981a), K capitata, from eastern Australia, was selected as the type of the genus. Reichenbach (1828) in his original use of the genus Kunzea referred to three species. Kunzea capitata was selected as the type in preference to K ericifolia and K corifolia (now K ambigua), because it has at all stages a capitate stigma, the distinguishing character used in the original publication.
