L.G. Adams was recombined at subspecies rank from showed that it matches the protologue of V. sieberiana Spreng. Adams used subspecies rank for these taxa as V. hederacea subsp. curtisiae. Field observations he regarded V. hederacea as a polymorphic complex, with evidence at the type locality in Tasmania confirm this. Viola hederacea subsp. curtisiae and of intergradation (“clinal variation”) between some of his named V. hederacea subsp. hederacea co-occur with no taxa. -

Solasodine Production from Solanum Laciniatum in the South Island of New Zealand
SOLASODINE PRODUCTION FROM SOLANUM LACINIATUM IN THE SOUTH ISLAND OF NEW ZEALAND D. J. G. Davies and J. D. Mann Crop Research Division and Applied Biochemistry Division DSIR, Lincoln, Canterbury ABSTRACT This paper reviews agronomic studies on the production of solasodine-containing leaves from Solanum laciniatum grown as an annual crop in the South Island. The best yields were below 200 kg ha-I of solasodine, and well below commercial feasibility.

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. 48 - March 2016 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 With continuing warmer oceans around Australia, El Nino has deepened during the last two months, and our dry conditions continued into mid-March when some reasonable rain finally came. We can only be thankful that the severe bushfires this season in other states have not occurred in our part of the world. Blackberry bushes were introduced for their fruit but now are regarded as noxious weeds. Many of us would remember going out in summer and collecting the fruit from thickets of Blackberry in paddocks and escarpment clearings. Native raspberries are closely related to the Blackberry, and there are four species in the region, although their fruits are not as an attractive culinary treat as the introduction. The native raspberries are the subject of the first piece in this newsletter, followed by items on a plant of the month, an eatable thistle, slime mould and a new weed for the region. The answers to last month’s challenge to identify rainforest tree bark are also provided as is a photo of a common local frog from a reader. Below is another note on a common Australian genus. Grevillea - named in 1809 after the English politician and founder of the London Horticultural Society Charles Francis Greville. -

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. -

EPPO Categorization: A1 list more photos... view more categorizations online... EU Categorization: A1 Quarantine pest (Annex II A) EPPO Code: OEMOHI Notes on taxonomy and nomenclature Lu & Wang (2005) revised the genus Oemona, which has 4 species: O. hirta, O. plicicollis, O. separata and O. simplicicollis. They provided an identification key to species and detailed descriptions. They also performed a phylogenetic analysis of all species, suggesting that O. hirta and O. plicicollis are sister species and most similar morphologically. HOSTS O. hirta is a highly polyphagous longhorn beetle. Its larvae feed on over 200 species of trees and shrubs from 63 (Lu & Wang, 2005; Wang, 2017) to 81 (EPPO, 2014) families. Its original hosts were native New Zealand plants, but it expanded its host range to many species exotic to New Zealand, ranging from major fruit, nut, forest and ornamental trees to shrubs and grapevines.

Towradgi Beach Dune Vegetation Site Plan 2018
Z18/182215 Towradgi Beach Dune Vegetation Site Plan 2018 August 2018 VERSION DATE COMMENTS REVISED BY 0.1 February 2015 Aimee Beardsmore 0.2 August 2016 New vegetation mapping and revised actions Elli Kircher 0.3 June 2017 Revised actions Martine Fraser 0.4 August 2018 Updated due to adoption of Tree and Vegetation Vandalism Martine Fraser Policy 1 August 2018 Introduction Council adopted a Wollongong Dune Management Strategy for the Patrolled Swimming Areas of 17 Beaches in March 2014. Management options were identified to address safety and recreational amenity issues, whilst also considering ecological values and the role of dunes in protection against coastal hazards. Options relating to vegetation management are management of noxious and invasive weed species and management of subspecies of Acacia longifolia (Coastal Wattle). This site plan will guide vegetation management works which will be undertaken by a number of parties including Council’s dune crew and contractors, and Dunecare volunteers. Vegetation Maps Vegetation mapping was initially undertaken at Towradgi Beach on 24 July, 4 and 11 August 2014 to inform works and provide a baseline to monitor progress. The site was divided into Bays as delineated by access paths. Each Bay was divided into patches to indicate the location and abundance of weeds and native plants. Vegetation mapping was re-done in August 2016 to update the maps to inform works given the large amount of work that has already been conducted. Management Actions and Priorities Actions have been prioritised taking into consideration the following factors: 1. The overall aim to improve sight lines for lifeguards and lifesavers, recreational amenity and site access.
