The Xanthorrhoeaceae has the largest representation with 10 genera and 99 species. Most are endemic with a few species of Lomandra and Romnalda extending to neighbouring islands. The family includes the spectacular blackboys and grass-trees. The Iridaceae is largely represented by naturalised species with 52 of the 78 species being introduced. Many of the introductions are ornamentals and several have become serious weeds. Patersonia is the largest genus with all 17 species endemic. Some of these are cultivated as ornamentals. The Dioscoreaccae is a family of economic significance, particularly in the old world tropics where some species are cultivated or collected for their tubers and bulbils. In Australia there are 5 species, one of which is a recent introduction. The endemic and native species, commonly known as yams, are traditionally eaten by the Aborigines. -
C. E. H. Ostenfelds's Western Australian Plants in the Herbarium
C. E. H. OSTENFELD'S WESTERN AUSTRALIAN PLANTS IN THE HERBARIUM, NATIONAL BOTANIC GARDENS, GLASNEVIN. E. CHARLES NELSON and MARY J. P. SCANNELL National Botanic Gardens, Glasnevin, Dublin 9, Ireland. Glasra 2: 1–24. publication date 5. v. 1978 ABSTRACT Carl Ostenfeld, a Danish botanist, made a large collection of plants in Western Australia in 1914. A partial set of his specimens is housed in the National Botanic Gardens, Glasnevin (DBN); the specimens are catalogued and important specimens, including isotypes, are noted. INTRODUCTION In 1922, the National Museum (of Science and Art), Dublin purchased a partial set of Ostenfeld's collection of Western Australian plants (Plantae ex Australia occidentali). The collection of about 670 numbers was registered under number 448, but was not then incorporated in the museum herbarium. After the amalgamation of the National Museum herbarium and the National Botanic Gardens' herbarium in 1970 at Glasnevin, the material was mounted and in 1976 it was incorporated in the herbarium (DBN) (see Taxon 1970). The appended catalogue of the material was made prior to incorporation. C. E. H. OSTENFELD-BIOGRAPHICAL NOTES Carl Emll Hansen Ostenfeld was born in 1873 in Randers, Denmark, and graduated from the University of Copenhagen. He was Keeper of the Botanical Museum, Copenhagen, from 1900 until 1918 when he became Professor of Botany at the Royal Veterinary and Agricultural University, Copenhagen. In 1923 he was appointed Professor of Botany at the University of Copenhagen and thus also Director of the Botanical Garden, Copenhagen (Olrik 1974, Skovsted 1974, Hansen 1974). Ostenfeld died in 1931. In 1914, Ostenfeld was invited to visit Australia by the British Association for the Advancement of Science, to take part in the annual meetings which were held in the capital cities of the different Australian states. -

A phylogenetic analysis of monocots and related dicots was conducted, using a four-gene matrix consisting of two genes from the plastid genome (matK and rbcL) and two from the mitochondrial genome (atpA/atp1 and cob). The taxon sample includes 101 monocots and 36 dicots, and all four genes were sampled for all 137 taxa. Jackknife support was assessed for clades resolved by the four-gene analysis, and compared to support for the same clades by each of the four three-gene subset matrices, in order to quantify the degree to which each gene contributed to or detracted from support for each clade. -

Reinstatement of Burchardia congesta (Colchicaceae). Nuytsia 15(3): 347–353 (2005). Burchardia R. Br. is an endemic Australian genus of five species in the Colchicaceae. Burchardia umbellata R. Br. is a widespread taxon occurring disjunctly in temperate Eastern Australia and in south-west Western Australia. Studies on the morphology, ecology and anatomy of the Western and Eastern populations have shown marked discontinuities in character sets, leading to the recognition that each area is a seperate taxon. The name B. congesta Lindl. is re-instated for the Western populations and the name B. umbellata restricted to the Eastern populations. Introduction Burchardia R. Br. is an endemic Australian genus of Colchicaceae. -

Calectasia Cyanea (Blue Tinsel Lily) Listing Advice
Advice to the Minister for the Environment and Heritage from the Threatened Species Scientific Committee (TSSC) on Amendments to the list of Threatened Species under the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999 (EPBC Act) 1. Scientific name (common name) Calectasia cyanea (Blue Tinsel Lily) 2. Description The Blue Tinsel Lily is a woody perennial herb that grows up to 60cm high and 30cm wide. The flowering season occurs from June to October and the prominent flowers are blue and purple, with red and yellow anthers (the pollen bearing part of the flower). The species reproduces by seed germination after fires. 3. National Context The Blue Tinsel Lily is endemic to Western Australia. It is currently known from only one locality within Torndirrup National Park south of Albany, in southwestern Western Australia. The species is currently listed as rare under the Western Australian Wildlife Conservation Act 1950 and is managed as ‘critically endangered’ (according to IUCN criteria) by the Western Australian Government. 4. How judged by TSSC in relation to the EPBC Act criteria. TSSC judges the species to be eligible for listing as critically endangered under the EPBC Act. The justification against the criteria is as follows: Criterion 1 – It has undergone, is suspected to have undergone or is likely to undergo in the immediate future a very severe, severe or substantial reduction in numbers. The Blue Tinsel Lily was previously thought to be widespread throughout southwest Western Australia, however this was due to misidentification with a similar species, Calectasia narragera. It has now been established that the true Blue Tinsel Lily is known from only one locality within Torndirrup National Park, south of Albany (CALM 2005). -
