    Statement of Management Intent Macquarie Pass State Conservation Area 1. Introduction This statement outlines the main values, issues, management directions and priorities of the National Parks and Wildlife Service (NPWS) for managing Macquarie Pass State Conservation Area (SCA). This statement, together with relevant NPWS policies, will guide the management of the SCA until a plan of management has been prepared in accordance with the National Parks and Wildlife Act 1974 (NPW Act). The NPWS Managing Parks Prior to Plan of Management Policy states that parks and reserves without a plan of management are to be managed in a manner consistent with the intent of the NPW Act and the ‘precautionary principle’ (see Principle 15). 2.

    1 Conservation Assessment of Pomaderris walshii Eren Delgado1 and Tony D. Auld1 February 2018 1, Science Division, NSW Office of Environment and Heritage Pomaderris walshii J.C. Millott & K.L. McDougall (Rhamnaceae) Distribution: Endemic to NSW Current EPBC Act Status: Not listed Current NSW BC Act Status: Critically Endangered Proposed change for alignment: List on EPBC as Critically Endangered Conservation Advice: Pomaderris walshii (Carrington Falls Pomaderris) Summary of Conservation Assessment Pomaderris walshii was found to be eligible for listing as Critically Endangered under Criteria B1+B2ab(iii)(iv)(v); C2a(i); and D. The main reasons for this species being eligible are: i) the species has a very restricted geographic range, with both the extent of occurrence (EOO) and the area of occupancy (AOO) being 8 km2; ii) it is currently known from only 38 mature individuals in the Upper Catchment of the Kangaroo River in NSW; iii) the extent and quality of habitat is threatened by change in land-use at the private tenure sites and also likely by climate change as the area is highly dependent on orographic rainfall; iv) a continuing decline in the number of populations and the number of mature individuals. One site on private land had a reduction of 23 plants from 2003 to 2015 due to habitat degradation, and now has only 7 known individuals There is flood damage to the known habitat area while an adverse fire regime may represent a threat, as may genetic consequences of a small population size (seed set is very poor). Description and Taxonomy The NSW Scientific Committee (2007) states that “Pomaderris walshii J.C.

  • Budawangia* an E-Newsletter for All Those Interested in the Native Plants of the Nsw South Coast
    BUDAWANGIA* AN E-NEWSLETTER FOR ALL THOSE INTERESTED IN THE NATIVE PLANTS OF THE NSW SOUTH COAST Contact: Dr Kevin Mills – [email protected] No. 32 - November 2014 Aims: To connect those interested in the native flora of the NSW South Coast, to share up to date information on the flora of the region and to broaden the appreciation of the region’s native plants. Editorial There are so many rainforest trees that many people find it difficult to accurately identify individual species based on leaves alone. This is true of the trees in the laurel family (Lauraceae). This edition contains a piece on identifying the local species based on leaf characteristics. Also included, is a note on a new record of a small rainforest tree found at Minnamurra Rainforest. This edition includes a new mystery weed, a piece on the Giant Pepper Vine of the local rainforests and wetland plant No. 8. Once again, the Illawarra Flame Trees Brachychiton acerifolius are flowering well in the region. Blotches of red appeared along the escarpment and in the rainforest remnants around Kiama early in the month. The common name flame tree is well deserved, as the bright red colour of thousands of flowers really does look like a tree in flame; this is heightened by the fact that the trees are usually leafless at this time. The genus Brachychiton is derived from brachys for short and chiton, a coat of mail, in allusion to the bristly coasting around the seeds in this genus. The species name acerifolius is in reference to the leaves that at times look like those in the deciduous maple tree genus Acer.
