Kwongan & Wandoo Trip Report 2017 KWONGAN & WANDOO TRIP REPORT 2017 Kingia australis, Stirling Range 1 Day 1 11 Sept – King’s Park & Wireless Hill Everyone had decided to fly into Australia a few days early to get over jet lag and have a look around the local area so rather than meeting at the airport we had an extra day to enjoy. This began in the pleasant environs of King’s Park a combination of a well maintained botanic garden with some superb displays of native plants as well as a large tract of native bushland. We spent our time in the latter to familiarise ourselves with the flora we were to experience during the tour. There were the first of many wonderful Anigozanthus manglesii with their unique green ‘kangaroo paws’ on bright red stems. Also common were fine stands of apricot-coloured Diuris corymbosa, though some seemed feisty enough to be considered Diuris magnifica (size seems the only distinction between these two). And these mingled with the pink heads of Sowerbaea laxiflora, various Conostylis, the viola relative Hybanthus calycina, flowery bushes of Hypocalymma robustum, the Running Postman Kennedia prostrata with large red, claw-like flowers and creamy floweredHakea prostrata. The showy orchid Caladenia flava was sprinkled throughout and as we wandered more orchids turned up with a few deep red-lipped Carousel Spider Orchids Caladenia arenicola and delicate pink Caladenia latifolia. Other areas of bushland held much the same and despite the odd shower we had an enjoyable walk. After lunch at the visitor centre we drove the short distance to Wireless Hill where the bushland was even more interesting. A scrambling plant of Thysanotus patersonii was beset with mauve, fringed flowers and there were the first of many orchids with Caladenia arenicola growing with C. longicauda. Here too were more superb stands of Anigozanthus manglesii but this time joined by its smaller, fiery-coloured cousin A. humilis and various colour variants were on show from yellow to near red. Looking carefully, we found many more orchids with the delightful Dancing Spider Orchid Caladenia discoidea with its fringed lip, stands of Lyperanthus serratus and more fine groups of Caladenia arenicola. Scattered across the area were a good number of the native cycad Macrozamia fraseri and we found both male and female flowering cones. Throughout the bush had been the tall pink Gladiolus caryophyllaceus, a South African invader, which lovely though it was it was being pulled up in large numbers to control its spread. A final treat was a perfect flower of Banksia grandis, with a tall cylinder of yellow flowers amongst coarsely pinnate leaves. 2 Anigozanthus manglesii Day 2 12 Sept – Enneaba via Phoebe Reserve Leaving the city, we picked up necessary food supplies and then headed north along the Brand Highway. The vegetation began to change with ever increasing amounts of Banksia and then after an hour or so extensive tracts of low kwongan heath. We stopped at the Phoebe Reserve a florally diverse area with varied habitats. Around the car park and seasonally wet flats were hundreds of rich blue Chamaescilla corymbosa mixed with even more pink-infused Buchardia multiflora and bushes of Acacia lasiocarpa/ pulchella smothered in yellow flower balls. Searching among the flats we soon found a rich assortment of orchids with the ruby-lipped Blushing Spider Orchid Caladenia lorea, delicate white C. dimidia, a few delicate yellow Bee Orchids Diuris decrementa/ septrionalis, and another Diuris sp. The soft yellow of Caladenia flava was abundant throughout the walk in almost all habitats. Walking on and we found the first Blue China Orchid Cyanicula gemmata and then in clearings among the trees were lovely drifts of the everlasting daisy Rhodanthe chlorocephala. There was little else in this area of eucalpyt woodland until we found the related Rhodanthe manglesii (with amplexicaul leaves) However, crossing a bridge we entered kwongan heath with Caladenia vulgaris on the fringes of this and then dense stands of a Hakea lissocarpha(?). Although the season seemed a little later than normal here we still found a steady stream of new plants. Also throughout the sandy ground were countless rosettes of Drosera erythrorhiza and the scrambling stems of D. pallida with whorls of little round leaves. The shrub diversity is very high in kwongan and we saw a beautiful Isopogon linearis with turbans of pink flowers, electric blue Lechenaultia biflora, a stag’s-horn leaved Synaphaea sp, Calectasia narragara and sprawling plants of Thomasia macrocalyx with many nodding pale pink flowers. Reaching a stonier ridge, the flora changed again with increasing numbers of Asteroloma microdonta beset with dozens of bright translucent red berry-like flowers. It’s cousin A. xerophyllum was not far away and this had similar-shaped flowers except they were white with a whorl of furry petals at the mouth. Standard kwongan shrubs such as Gastrolobium polystachyum began to appear, this one the source of the powerful poison 1080, used extensively in Australia to control foxes. Some attractive domes of Conostylis canteriata were seen, one of at least three species found here (C. aculeata and teretifolia were the others) and then as we descended the slope Jan spotted the first Purple Enamel Orchid Elythranthera brunonis a stunning little plant, the shiny perianth with deep purple-red spots on the reverse. Several more were seen as we walked onto the car passing more spider orchids and clumps of Anigozanthus humilis breaking into flower. 3 Rhodanthe chlorocephala Driving on we stopped for some fine stands of Lechanaultia biflora growing in heath (which was quite different again) with the pretty scarlet-flowered Drosera barbigera. and blue Conospermum nervosum. The silvery plumes of Conospermum unilaterale became more common along the roadside before we stopped by a recent burn to have a look. Here there was a bush of Verticordia grandis with spikes of bright red fimbriate margined flowers, a typical feature of this showy genus. The landscape was thick with flowering bushes of Hibbertia sp, whilst Scaveola phlebopetala spread across the ground with deep purple flowers. The occasional bush of Lambertia multiflora and pendant flowered Diploaena ferruginea was found and there were many of an attractive silver- leaved shrub Verreauxia reinwardtii and the vigorous scrambling stems of Kennedia prostrata. Time was moving on and it would have been easy to stop a dozen times, the heaths here are so fascinating, but we had to cover some ground. We passed an area with hundreds of flowering Banksia prionotes, (one for another day), and instead pressed onto to try and find the Queen of Sheba. This is the regions iconic orchid and though normally finished flowering by now, this year was late and we stood a chance. However, when we eventually reached the exact site there was no queen. There was instead the pendulous stemmed Darwinia neildiana, an interesting plant in its own right. It was worth a try. The good news was that on reaching our accommodation we were told they knew of a place with flowering ‘queens’ so tomorrow we could try again. Dinner was in the home of our hosts and very convivial it was too especially when Sandra produced the baby Western Grey Kangaroo she was nursing to many an ooh and ahh! Day 3 13 Sept – Mount Leseuer The kangaroos were performing first thing with a cute joey bouncing around and the adults lounging in the sun after a feed. A good flowery day began with a large ‘everlasting’ daisy Xerochrysum sp (syn. Helichrysum bracteatum) beside the road. Pushing onto the Mount Leseuer national park we stopped first for some very pretty fringe lilies with both the smaller Thysanotus patersonii draped over a bush and the larger flowered T. manglesianus. The former proved to be very common and was seen throughout the day among shrubs, even dangling from grass trees. A little further on and there was a diverse shrubby area by the car park with Lasiopetalum drummondii, Calothamnus quadrifidus coming into flower, the peculiar trailing 4 Elythranthera brunonis Darwinia virescens, pinkish-lilac spikes of Philotheca spicata, orange Lambertia multiflora, and some very nice Isopogon linearis. Related Isopogon dubius was very common just a few hundred metres along with large flowering bushes of this and the superb grey ‘stag’s-horn foliage of Daviesia epiphyllum. Then it was the turn of the ‘dusty’ reddish bells of Blancoa canescens the flowers coated in loose indumentum. Alongside these was a Calytrix and climbing stems of Drosera pallida as well as a decent cone-spike of Banksia menziesii. And the last batch before lunch included good spikes of Pityrodia bartlingii on tall stems and the pretty turbans of white bristles on Conothamnus trinervis. A quick lunch and we were off on our walk to into the low hills of the park, with the vegetation regularly changing as the soil shifted from rocky to sandy or the aspect altered or who knows what, it is after a biological hotspot within a biological hotspot and this was bourne out. Not far into the walk and we entered a wonderful flowering shrub-flanked section and for the next few hundred metres were surrounded by flowers. There was a fine collection of pendulous pink Thomasia grandiflora, yellow Synaphaea sp, orange Gastrolobium sp, blue Conospermum nervosum, and the creamy ‘rasta-topped’ Petrophile linearis. Best of all though was the lovely Hakea neurophylla a plant that had it all with attractive translucent-veined grey foliage, a good upright habit and pretty pink or pinkish white flowers that were deliciously scented of sweet raspberries, the perfume wafting through the air all along the path. Other delights followed as we gained a bit of height and walked around the other side of the slope where bushy Dryandra sclerophylla was common and a dainty Tetratheca sp grew on the rocky ground near stands of pale-barked Eucalyptus drummondii, the interesting twisted boughs framing the kwongan-clad ‘mountain’ slopes beyond (for WA this was a significant change in altitude).

  • 1 a Survey of the Flora of Remnants Within the Waddy
    1 A SURVEY OF THE FLORA OF REMNANTS WITHIN THE WADDY FOREST LAND CONSERVATION DISTRICT Stephen Davies and Phil Ladd for the Waddy Forest Land Conservation District Committee March 2000 2 CONTENTS INTRODUCTION 1 METHODS 3 RESULTS 4 DISCUSSION 56 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS 59 REFERENCES 60 Appendix 1 - Composite plant list 60 Appendix 2 - Plants found outside the sample sites 67 Appendix 3 - Composite bird list 67 3 INTRODUCTION The Waddy Forest Land Conservation District is about 41,000 hectares and contains 23 substantial land holdings. In 1999 the District received a grant from the National Heritage Trust to survey the flora of its remnant vegetation. Much of this is on private property and the District Committee selected thirty three plots of remnant bushland on private farms to be included in flora survey. The present report is based on visits to these thirty three remnants that lie on 14 of the 23 farms in the district. The surveys are intended to provide information about the biodiversity of the various remnants with the aim of establishing the priority for preservation, by fencing, of the remnants and to determine the value of linking some of them by the planting of corridors of vegetation. At each site the local landholder(s) joined the survey and provided invaluable background information about the history of the remnants. The vegetation of this part of the northern wheatbelt is known to be very diverse. The Marchagee Nature Reserve, lying north west of the District, was surveyed between 1975 and 1977 (Dell et al. 1979). The area was covered by Beard in his vegetation mapping project (Beard 1976), and part of the south of the District was covered in a report on Koobabbie Farm in 1990 (Davies 1990).

  • Fire Impacts on Restored Shrublands Following Mining for Heavy Minerals Near Eneabba, Southwestern Australia
    Department of Environmental Biology Fire impacts on restored shrublands following mining for heavy minerals near Eneabba, southwestern Australia Dulana Nilupul Herath This thesis is presented for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy of Curtin University of Technology September 2008 DECLARATION To the best of my knowledge and belief this thesis contains no material previously published by any other person except where due acknowledgment has been made. This thesis contains no material which has been accepted for the award of any other degree or diploma in any university. Signature: …………………………………………. Date: ………………………... i ABSTRACT Following mineral-sand mining in the northern sandplains near Eneabba, southwestern Australia, rehabilitation managers have the difficult task of restoring shrubland communities of exceptional plant species richness. Management aims to restore a fully functional and self-sustaining shrubland community with similar vegetation and resilience properties to that of the surrounding natural vegetation. This thesis examines the performance of the restoration program by Iluka Resources Ltd. (and their predecessors) by comparing current vegetation properties and their response to fires on previously mined land versus the surrounding natural shrubland. As biomass accumulates post-restoration, fires will return as a natural disturbance factor and, as a result, a desirable measure of restoration success might include the ability of the postmined lands to recover from disturbance. Pre-burnt plant species diversity, composition, structure and key functional attributes in four mined sites rehabilitated 8 (R8) to 24 (R24) years ago were compared with those of surrounding natural areas classified on the basis of substrate type (low and high sand dunes, shallow sand swales, sand over laterite and sand over limestone).

  • State-Wide Seed Conservation Strategy for Threatened Species, Threatened Communities and Biodiversity Hotspots
    State-wide seed conservation strategy for threatened species, threatened communities and biodiversity hotspots Project 033146a Final Report South Coast Natural Resource Management Inc. and Australian Government Natural Heritage Trust July 2008 Prepared by Anne Cochrane Threatened Flora Seed Centre Department of Environment and Conservation Western Australian Herbarium Kensington Western Australia 6983 Summary In 2005 the South Coast Natural Resource Management Inc. secured regional competitive component funding from the Australian Government’s Natural Heritage Trust for a three-year project for the Western Australian Department of Environment and Conservation (DEC) to coordinate seed conservation activities for listed threatened species and ecological communities and for Commonwealth identified national biodiversity hotspots in Western Australia (Project 033146). This project implemented an integrated and consistent approach to collecting seeds of threatened and other flora across all regions in Western Australia. The project expanded existing seed conservation activities thereby contributing to Western Australian plant conservation and recovery programs. The primary goal of the project was to increase the level of protection of native flora by obtaining seeds for long term conservation of 300 species. The project was successful and 571 collections were made. The project achieved its goals by using existing skills, data, centralised seed banking facilities and international partnerships that the DEC’s Threatened Flora Seed Centre already had in place. In addition to storage of seeds at the Threatened Flora Seed Centre, 199 duplicate samples were dispatched under a global seed conservation partnership to the Millennium Seed Bank in the UK for further safe-keeping. Herbarium voucher specimens for each collection have been lodged with the State herbarium in Perth, Western Australia.

  • Marchagee Nature Reserve B.G
    11 VEGETATION OF MARCHAGEE NATURE RESERVE B.G. MUIR General Marchagee Nature Reserve lies within the Irwin district of the South Western Botanical Province of Gardner and Bennetts (1956). Vegetation of the Marchagee Vegetation System has been discussed by Beard (1976a,b). Beard maps the vegeta­ tion of Marchagee Reserve as 'scrub heath on sandplain' with a belt of 'teatree thicket and samphire' on its north-eastern side. Abbreviated vegetation descriptions are presented in Appendix 1 and sample loca­ tions are illustrated on Map 1. Full descriptions of the vegetation following the format presented in Muir (1977) are available on request from the Librarian. Species found at some locations are listed in Appendix 2 and families of plants in Appendix 3. Methodology The vegetation of Marchagee Nature Reserve was mapped at Level 1 on the reliability scale set out in Muir (ibid). Each vegetation formation discernible on the air photographs was examined on the ground; at least one location was described in detail within each major association using the classification shown in Table 1 and discussed in detail in Muir (ibid); and a soil profile was described for each major association. Level 1 locations shown on Map 1 represent 'sample areas' where the vegetation was examined in detail. The following prefix numbers of the locations represent basic formation types. 2. = Mallee formations 3. = Shrubland formations 4. = Heath formations 7. = Salt complex 8. = Other The methods used in classifying formations, coding vegetation, preparing plant lists, classifying litter and describing soils are those of Muir (ibid). In addition to the soil characteristics dealt with on other reserves, total soluble salts were also measured on Marchagee Reserve.

Butcher, Kunzea dracopetrensis (Myrtaceae), an uncommon new species 117 Nuytsia The journal of the Western Australian Herbarium 31: 117–123 Published online 2 June 2020 Kunzea dracopetrensis (Myrtaceae: Leptospermeae), an uncommon new species from Western Australia’s south-eastern wheatbelt Ryonen Butcher Western Australian Herbarium, Biodiversity and Conservation Science, Department of Biodiversity, Conservation and Attractions, Locked Bag 104, Bentley Delivery Centre, Western Australia 6983 Email: [email protected] SHORT COMMUNICATION Many new species discovered by botanists in Western Australia are not recognised as different in the field but from within an herbarium’s existing collection during the curation or study of specimens. Kunzea dracopetrensis R.Butcher, the new species described herein, is one such species. It was identified as new during curation of the Western Australian Herbarium’s Kunzea Rchb. collection while expediting the publication of three new Threatened taxa from the Ravensthorpe region (Toelken & Craig 2007) as part of the Western Australian Government’s Saving Our Species special edition of Nuytsia (Vol. 17). Two distinctive and morphologically congruent specimens (A.M. Coates 3107; K. Kershaw KK 2184) were identified from two nearby localities within Dragon Rocks Nature Reserve, c. 35 km north of Newdegate in the south-eastern wheatbelt region; one specimen was retrieved from within the extensive K. preissiana Schauer collection, while the other had been recognised as unusual and languished in the “Kunzea sp.” folder. The phrase name K. sp. Dragon Rocks (K. Kershaw KK 2184) was subsequently erected on Western Australia’s vascular plant census, and the taxon added to the State’s conservation list.
