  • Nuytsia the Journal of the Western Australian Herbarium 24: 103–108 Published Online 3 July 2014
    S.J. Dillon, Grevillea saxicola (Proteaceae), a new species from the Pilbara 103 Nuytsia The journal of the Western Australian Herbarium 24: 103–108 Published online 3 July 2014 Grevillea saxicola (Proteaceae), a new species from the Pilbara of Western Australia Steven J. Dillon Western Australian Herbarium, Department of Parks and Wildlife, Locked Bag 104, Bentley Delivery Centre, Western Australia 6983 Email: [email protected] Abstract Dillon, S.J. Grevillea saxicola (Proteaceae), a new species from the Pilbara of Western Australia. Nuytsia 24: 103–108 (2014). A new species of Grevillea R.Br. ex Knight, G. saxicola S.J.Dillon, is described. An amendment to an existing key of Grevillea is provided to include the new taxon, which has conservation priority. Introduction Grevillea R.Br. ex Knight is the third largest genus in Western Australia with 348 taxa, 14 of which occur in the Pilbara region of Western Australia. The last revision of the genus was by Makinson (2000) and since that time a further c. 20 taxa have been added to the census of Western Australian plants (Western Australian Herbarium 1998–). Close examination of several Grevillea collections from the southern Pilbara revealed a distinct new taxon that had been previously ascribed to either G. nematophylla F.Muell. or G. berryana Ewart & Jean White. This finding was supported by more recent collections and this new species is described here as G. saxicola S.J.Dillon. Methods Descriptions and measurements are based on dried herbarium specimens held at the Western Australian Herbarium. When possible, up to five flowers were re-hydrated from each specimen for floral examination.

Plants are arranged alphabetically within families. Hyperlinks are provided for quick access to historical material found on-line. Attention is drawn (in the green boxes below the species accounts) to some features which may help identification or may interest the reader, but these are by no means diagnostic. Where technical terms are used, these are explained in parenthesis. The ultimate on-line authority on the Western Australian flora is FloraBase. It provides the most up-to-date nomenclature, details of subspecies, flowering periods and distribution maps. Please use this guide in conjunction with FloraBase. Part 2 — POSTS AND PLATES provides short historical accounts of some the people involved in erecting and removing posts and plates on Dirk Hartog Island between 1616 and 1907, and those who may have collected plants on the island during their visit. Home FLOWERS PHOTOGRAPHS REFERENCES BIRD LIST Home Flower Photos The plants are presented in alphabetical order within plant families - this is so that plants that are closely related to one another will be grouped together on nearby pages. All of the family names and genus names are given at the top of each page and are also listed in an index.

  • A Targeted Flora Survey of the Naturebank Envelope in Millstream Chichester National Park
    A TARGETED FLORA SURVEY OF THE NATUREBANK ENVELOPE IN MILLSTREAM CHICHESTER NATIONAL PARK Submitted by Robert Davis and John Huisman Western Australian Herbarium, Science and Conservation Division, Department of Parks and Wildlife To Tourism section Parks and Visitor Services Department of Parks and Wildlife And Pilbara Region Department of Parks and Wildlife April 2017 Summary A flora survey was undertaken in the Naturebank envelope at Palm Pool in Millstream Chichester National Park, Western Australia, in order to identify vascular plant species in the project area and to highlight any of conservation significance. The survey was conducted over two days in March 2017 in good seasonal conditions and encompassed the area surrounding Palm Pool and associated river and access envelopes. A total of 110 taxa were recorded, including four conservation-listed taxa: Livistona alfredii (P4), Goodenia nuda (P4), Pentalepis trichodesmoides subsp. hispida (P2) and Teucrium pilbaranum (P2). Introduction The flora survey outlined herein has been undertaken in response to a proposed Naturebank ecotourism development in Millstream Chichester National Park. This ecologically and culturally significant park, which is dominated by the rugged Chichester Range, is located in the Pilbara bioregion of Western Australia, some 150 kilometres by road south-east of Karratha. The northern aspect of the Fortescue River at Palm Pool had been identified as a suitable site for the proposed development. The footprint measures at 107ha with a 4.84km boundary. The Palm Pool development envelope (Figures 1, 2) occurs in the Chichester IBRA subregion (Department of the Environment, Water, Heritage and the Arts 2013) and sits on an elevated plain, with undulating, rocky hills adjoining the riparian zone of the Fortescue River.

    Yeelirrie Uranium Project Public Environmental Review Section Nine: Environmental Factors from one or more localities but do not meet adequacy of survey requirements and appear to be under immediate threat from known threatening processes. Priority Two: Poorly-known taxa. Taxa that are known from one or a few collections or sight records, some of which are on lands not under imminent threat of habitat destruction or degradation (e.g. national parks, conservation parks, nature reserves, State forest, vacant Crown land, water reserves, etc.). Taxa may be included if they are comparatively well known from one or more localities but do not meet adequacy of survey requirements and appear to be under threat from known threatening processes. Priority Three: Poorly-known taxa. Taxa that are known from collections or sight records from several localities not under imminent threat, or from few but widespread localities with either large population size or significant remaining areas of apparently suitable habitat, much of it not under imminent threat. Taxa may be included if they are comparatively well known from several localities but do not meet adequacy of survey requirements and known threatening processes exist that could affect them. Priority Four: Rare, Near Threatened and other taxa in need of monitoring. (a) Rare: Taxa that are considered to have been adequately surveyed, or for which sufficient knowledge is available, and that are considered not currently threatened or in need of special protection, but could be if present circumstances change. These taxa are usually represented on conservation lands; (b) Near Threatened: Taxa that are considered to have been adequately surveyed and that do not qualify for Conservation Dependent, but that are close to qualifying for Vulnerable; (c) Other: Taxa that have been removed from the list of threatened species during the past five years for reasons other than taxonomy.
