Rare Or Threatened Vascular Plant Species of Wollemi National Park, Central Eastern New South Wales
Rare or threatened vascular plant species of Wollemi National Park, central eastern New South Wales. Stephen A.J. Bell Eastcoast Flora Survey PO Box 216 Kotara Fair, NSW 2289, AUSTRALIA Abstract: Wollemi National Park (c. 32o 20’– 33o 30’S, 150o– 151oE), approximately 100 km north-west of Sydney, conserves over 500 000 ha of the Triassic sandstone environments of the Central Coast and Tablelands of New South Wales, and occupies approximately 25% of the Sydney Basin biogeographical region. 94 taxa of conservation signiicance have been recorded and Wollemi is recognised as an important reservoir of rare and uncommon plant taxa, conserving more than 20% of all listed threatened species for the Central Coast, Central Tablelands and Central Western Slopes botanical divisions. For a land area occupying only 0.05% of these divisions, Wollemi is of paramount importance in regional conservation. Surveys within Wollemi National Park over the last decade have recorded several new populations of signiicant vascular plant species, including some sizeable range extensions. This paper summarises the current status of all rare or threatened taxa, describes habitat and associated species for many of these and proposes IUCN (2001) codes for all, as well as suggesting revisions to current conservation risk codes for some species. For Wollemi National Park 37 species are currently listed as Endangered (15 species) or Vulnerable (22 species) under the New South Wales Threatened Species Conservation Act 1995. An additional 50 species are currently listed as nationally rare under the Briggs and Leigh (1996) classiication, or have been suggested as such by various workers. Seven species are awaiting further taxonomic investigation, including Eucalyptus sp.

MEA CULPA: My apol~gi~sonce again for a belated newsletter. This time I'll blame the weather ; a year of drought until Feb. 28th.) then a month of rain every day. As I'm not on town (reticulated) water, and my creek dried up Tor the second time in 13 years, watering involved rationing small amounts of bought (by the truckload) water to my 500-odd pots {I'm a compulsive propagator}. Then the rain brought up 2 years supply of weeds. And then I lost the first version of this 4 newsletter when my computer's hard disc died. MEMBERSHIP: I'm not sure whether some people want to be in this study group. If I do know, a tick will follow the questio mark on the line below: 9- P - - J If there is no tick, please advise if you want to be in' the group. Our financial year ends June 30th. Sub remains at $5. Next newsletter should be in early July. Welcome to new Qld. members Merv Hodqe, Albert Grilanc, Jan Glazebrook, Dennis Cox, & Joy & Fred McKew. All have joined only recently, so their subs I'll take as paid for '94-'95. BRACHYCHITON DISTRIBUTION MAPS: I have omitted these for those people who I know have copies of Guymer's article from which they were taken. t LIVING PLANT COLLECTION: As usual, a month of hot humidity killed all my Thomasias save one small-leaved species, which looks fine.

B. poiciloptilus is a large, stocky, thick-necked heron-like bird with camouflage-like plumage growing up to 66-76 cm with a wingspan of 1050-1180 cm and feeds on freshwater crustacean, fish, insects, snakes, leaves and fruit. N. oxleyana is light brown to olive coloured freshwater fish with mottling and three to four patchy, dark brown bars extending from head to tail and a whitish belly growing up to 35-60 mm. This is a mobile species that is often observed individually or in pairs and sometimes in small groups but does not form schools and feed on aquatic insects and their larvae (Allen, 1989; McDowall, 1996). E. leuraensis is an insectivorous, medium-sized lizard growing to approximately 20 cm in length. This species has a relatively dark brown/black body when compared to other Eulamprus spp. Also has narrow yellow/bronze to white stripes along its length to beginning of the tail and continuing along the tail as a series of spots (LeBreton, 1996; Cogger, 2000).

The Victorian Naturalist
J The Victorian Naturalist Volume 113(1) 199 February Club of Victoria Published by The Field Naturalists since 1884 MUSEUM OF VICTOR A 34598 From the Editors Members Observations As an introduction to his naturalist note on page 29, George Crichton had written: 'Dear Editors late years the Journal has become I Was not sure if it was of any relevance, as of ' very scientific, and ordinary nature reports or gossip of little importance We would be very sorry if members felt they could not contribute to The Victorian Naturalist, and we assure all our readers that the editors would be more than pleased to publish their nature reports or notes. We can, however, only print material that we actually receive and you are encouraged to send in your observations and notes or suggestions for topics you would like to see published. These articles would be termed Naturalist Notes - see in our editorial policy below. Editorial Policy Scope The Victorian Naturalist publishes articles on all facets of natural history. Its primary aims are to stimulate interest in natural history and to encourage the publication of arti- cles in both formal and informal styles on a wide range of natural history topics. Authors may submit the material in the following forms: Research Reports - succinct and original scientific communications. Contributions - may consist of reports, comments, observations, survey results, bib- liographies or other material relating to natural history. The scope is broad and little defined to encourage material on a wide range of topics and in a range of styles. This allows inclusion of material that makes a contribution to our knowledge of natural his- tory but for which the traditional format of scientific papers is not appropriate.

Commersonia Apella
THREATENED SPECIES SCIENTIFIC COMMITTEE Established under the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999 The Minister approved this conservation advice and included this species in the Critically Endangered category, effective from 15/02/2018 Conservation Advice Commersonia apella many-flowered commersonia Summary of assessment Conservation status Commersonia apella has been found to be eligible for listing in the Critically Endangered category, as outlined in the attached assessment. Reason for conservation assessment by the Threatened Species Scientific Committee This advice follows assessment of information provided by Western Australia as part of the Common Assessment Method process, to systematically review species that are inconsistently listed under the EPBC Act and relevant state/territory legislation or lists. More information on the Common Assessment Method is available at: http://www.environment.gov.au/biodiversity/threatened/cam The information in this assessment has been compiled by the relevant state/territory government. In adopting this assessment under the EPBC Act, this document forms the Approved Conservation Advice for this species as required under s266B of the EPBC Act. Public consultation Notice of the proposed amendment and a consultation document was made available for public comment for 31 business days between 23 February 2017 and 10 April 2017. Any comments received that were relevant to the survival of the species were considered by the Committee as part of the assessment process. Recovery plan A recovery plan for this species under the EPBC Act is not recommended, because the Approved Conservation Advice provides sufficient direction to implement priority actions and mitigate against key threats. The relevant state/territory may decide to develop a plan under its equivalent legislation.

Hakea fraseri Armidale & District Group PO Box 735 ARMIDALE NSW 2350 Volume 31 No 3 http://www.anps-armidale.org.au June - July 2010 President: Secretary: Treasurer: Maria Hitchcock Liisa Atherton Phillip Rose 6775 1139 6779 1968 6775 3767 President’s Report Hello Members, Winter has finally arrived in New England. The long dry spell was broken by a week of on and off drizzle which is always welcome as any moisture that falls now stays in the ground for most of the season. This is the time to take stock of the garden – to walk around and assess what is working well and what isn’t. The sand mulch I put down two years ago was a great benefit to the new plantings but it resulted in a massive weed problem last summer so I made the decision to cover it all with a woodchip mulch over newspaper. I don’t have the time (or the inclination) to spend hours each week weeding my large beds so hopefully this will cut down on my workload, help retain moisture in the garden and provide less competition for my plants. Pam Rooney gave an excellent presentation at our last meeting of how she and her husband John renovated a traditional and overgrown Armidale garden turning it into a beautiful collection of native plants which has become a wildlife habitat for small birds. They chopped down large hedges, rolled up metres of overgrown ivy and removed problem trees, all of which opened up the space, allowed light to fill the yard and provided opportunities to introduce outdoor settings.
