Photographs by Stuart Hanna, EnviTE NSW Compiled by Julie Reid, EnviTE NSW Environmental Training and Employment Inc. (EnviTE N.S.W.) 2 Report on Vegetation and Land Management in Maguires Creek Catchment. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This report has been prepared for Richmond Landcare Inc (RLI), Ballina Shire Council (BSC) and landcare groups in the Maguires Creek catchment to facilitate community involvement in natural resource management. The Australian Government Envirofund provided the funding for the project. The document will broadly assess the state of existing vegetation, identify relevant land managers and determine priority zones for restoration projects to establish corridor connections. Connections will enhance the longer-term health and viability of remnant vegetation and dependent fauna communities by increasing vegetated area and connectivity. This report will be a beneficial resource to encourage a community- directed commitment to vegetation management and assist in bringing interested parties together to develop an integrated strategic approach to restoration works throughout the catchment. -

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.

AUSTRALIAN ORCHID NAME INDEX (27/4/2006) by Mark A. Clements and David L. Jones Centre for Plant Biodiversity Research/Australian National Herbarium GPO Box 1600 Canberra ACT 2601 Australia Corresponding author: [email protected] INTRODUCTION The Australian Orchid Name Index (AONI) provides the currently accepted scientific names, together with their synonyms, of all Australian orchids including those in external territories. The appropriate scientific name for each orchid taxon is based on data published in the scientific or historical literature, and/or from study of the relevant type specimens or illustrations and study of taxa as herbarium specimens, in the field or in the living state. Structure of the index: Genera and species are listed alphabetically. Accepted names for taxa are in bold, followed by the author(s), place and date of publication, details of the type(s), including where it is held and assessment of its status. The institution(s) where type specimen(s) are housed are recorded using the international codes for Herbaria (Appendix 1) as listed in Holmgren et al’s Index Herbariorum (1981) continuously updated, see [http://sciweb.nybg.org/science2/IndexHerbariorum.asp]. Citation of authors follows Brummit & Powell (1992) Authors of Plant Names; for book abbreviations, the standard is Taxonomic Literature, 2nd edn. (Stafleu & Cowan 1976-88; supplements, 1992-2000); and periodicals are abbreviated according to B-P-H/S (Bridson, 1992) [http://www.ipni.org/index.html]. Synonyms are provided with relevant information on place of publication and details of the type(s). They are indented and listed in chronological order under the accepted taxon name. -

CAMERON The Lewis B. and Dorothy Cullman Program for Molecular Systematics Studies, The New York Botanical Garden, Bronx, New York 10458-5126, USA ([email protected]) ABSTRACT Parsimony analyses of DNA sequences from the plastid genes atpB and rbcL were completed for 173 species of Orchidaceae (representing 150 different genera) and nine genera from outgroup families in Asparagales. The atpB tree topology is similar to the rbcL tree, although the atpB data contain less homoplasy and provide greater jackknife support than rbcL alone. In combination, the two-gene tree recovers five monophyletic clades corresponding to subfamilies within Orchidaceae, and fully resolves them with moderate to high jackknife support as follows: Epidendroideae are sister to Orchidoideae, followed by Cypripedioideae, then Vanilloideae, and with Apostasioideae sister to the entire family. -

Duck Creek Reserve 2003
Duck Creek Vegetation Restoration Plan 2003 Jen Ford Produced by on behalf of Ballina Shire Council, Big Scrub Rainforest Landcare Group and D & C Woodhead by Environmental Training and Employment Inc. EnviTE NSW Duck Creek Vegetation Restoration Plan EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This vegetation restoration plan covers an area of Big Scrub rainforest and the surrounding land, including a substantial strip of riparian vegetation, on Duck Creek, near Alstonville in Northern New South Wales. Environmental Training and Employment Inc. (EnviTE NSW) was commissioned by Ballina Shire Council, the Big Scrub Rainforest Landcare Group and Duncan & Caroline Woodhead to prepare this plan. The plan concentrates on the land owned by the Woodhead’s and an adjacent parcel of land owned by Ballina Shire Council. The total area of the land included in this plan covers 18.5 hectares with 17.9 hectares of that area being on private land. Both properties are listed as 1(b) – Rural Secondary Agricultural Land under Ballina Council’s Local Environment Plan. It should be noted that only a small part of the much larger rainforest remnant that runs along the Duck Creek Valley has been studied. In order that the regeneration be fully effective further studies above and below this area need to be examined. The restoration plan aims to facilitate an increase in the resilience and regenerative capacity of the entire site providing a suitable habitat for the conservation and movement of flora and fauna. Over 220 native flora species were identified of which five are listed as Rare or Threatened Australian Plants (R.O.T.A.P) and of these, three are listed as ‘Vunerable’ under the N.S.W Threatened Species Conservation Act 1995.
