  • 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.

  • Pollination Ecology and Evolution of Epacrids
    Pollination Ecology and Evolution of Epacrids by Karen A. Johnson BSc (Hons) Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Tasmania February 2012 ii Declaration of originality This thesis contains no material which has been accepted for the award of any other degree or diploma by the University or any other institution, except by way of background information and duly acknowledged in the thesis, and to the best of my knowledge and belief no material previously published or written by another person except where due acknowledgement is made in the text of the thesis, nor does the thesis contain any material that infringes copyright. Karen A. Johnson Statement of authority of access This thesis may be made available for copying. Copying of any part of this thesis is prohibited for two years from the date this statement was signed; after that time limited copying is permitted in accordance with the Copyright Act 1968. Karen A. Johnson iii iv Abstract Relationships between plants and their pollinators are thought to have played a major role in the morphological diversification of angiosperms. The epacrids (subfamily Styphelioideae) comprise more than 550 species of woody plants ranging from small prostrate shrubs to temperate rainforest emergents. Their range extends from SE Asia through Oceania to Tierra del Fuego with their highest diversity in Australia. The overall aim of the thesis is to determine the relationships between epacrid floral features and potential pollinators, and assess the evolutionary status of any pollination syndromes. The main hypotheses were that flower characteristics relate to pollinators in predictable ways; and that there is convergent evolution in the development of pollination syndromes.

  • Local Native Plant Species for Superb Fairy-Wren Habitat
    Suggested local native plant species for Superb Fairy-wren habitat Extract from the report, Superb Fairy-Wren Habitat in Glebe and Forest Lodge, S. Stevens, The Glebe Society, Sydney, 2008. The plants listed are thought to have been indigenous to inner-western Sydney prior to white settlement. Emphasis in this list is on plants that should be fairly easily obtainable, but a few that may be difficult to obtain at present, such as Epacrids and some Peas, and plants such as Epacrids have traditionally been difficult to propagate, have been included to indicate the variety of plants that are suitable for Superb Fairy-wren habitat, and with a view that these plant species may be available in the future. Indeed, highlighting them as suitable small bird habitat may influence some nurseries to add them to their stocklists.

Turner and Trevor J. H awkeswood Abstract: A new larval host plant, Oxylobium aciculiferum (F. Muell.) Benth. (Fabaceae), is recorded here for the Australian buprestid beetle, Melobasis cupriceps (Kirby) (Coleoptera: Buprestidae: Buprestinae). Its habitat is briefly recorded and aspects of the larval/pupal chambers are described. Oxylobium aciculiferum has not been recorded previously as a host (either larval or adult) for any other Australian Buprestidae and this is the first larval record from the genus Oxylobium. Melobasis cupriceps has been recorded previously as breeding in the branches of Acacia longifolia (Andr.) Willd. (Mimosaceae). Zusammenfassung: Der Schmetterlingsblütler Oxylobium aciculiferum (F. Muell.) Benth. ist als neue Wirtspflanze der Larven des australischen Prachtkäfers Melobasis cupriceps (Kirby) (Col.: Buprestidae) festgestellt worden. Habitat und Aspekte der Puppenwiege des Käfers werden beschrieben. Weder Oxylobium aciculiferum noch eine andere Art der Gattung Oxylobium wurde bisher als Wirtspflanze für Larven oder Imagines der Buprestidenfauna gemeldet. Die Vermehrung von M . cupriceps war bisher nur in Zweigen von Acacia longifolia (Andr.) Willd. beobachtet worden. Introduction The genus Melobasis Laporte & Gory is comprised of at least 80 species found throughout Australia and some in Papua New Guinea (Carter 1923,1929).
