The pandemic has made essential self distancing and quarantining to arrest the spread of the Corona virus. As a result, most APS activities have been shelved for the time being. Being in isolation at home has been a mixed blessing.

  • 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.

  • FINAL REPORT 2019 Canna Reserve
    FINAL REPORT 2019 Canna Reserve This project was supported by NACC NRM and the Shire of Morawa through funding from the Australian Government’s National Landcare Program Canna Reserve BioBlitz 2019 Weaving and wonder in the wilderness! The weather may have been hot and dry, but that didn’t stop everyone having fun and learning about the rich biodiversity and conservation value of the wonderful Canna Reserve during the highly successful 2019 BioBlitz. On the 14 - 15 September 2019, NACC NRM together with support from Department of Biodiversity Conservation and Attractions and the Shire of Morawa, hosted their third BioBlitz at the Canna Reserve in the Shire of Morawa. Fifty professional biologists and citizen scientists attended the event with people travelling from near and far including Morawa, Perenjori, Geraldton and Perth. After an introduction and Acknowledgement of Country from organisers Jessica Stingemore and Jarna Kendle, the BioBlitz kicked off with participants separating into four teams and heading out to explore Canna Reserve with the goal of identifying as many plants, birds, invertebrates, and vertebrates as possible in a 24 hr period. David Knowles of Spineless Wonders led the invertebrate survey with assistance from, OAM recipient Allen Sundholm, Jenny Borger of Jenny Borger Botanical Consultancy led the plant team, BirdLife Midwest member Alice Bishop guided the bird survey team and David Pongracz from Department of Biodiversity Conservation and Attractions ran the vertebrate surveys with assistance from volunteer Corin Desmond. The BioBlitz got off to a great start identifying 80 plant species during the first survey with many more species to come and even a new orchid find for the reserve.

  • Iron-Grass Natural Temperate Grassland Nationally Listed As Critically Endangered
    Department for Environment and Heritage Iron-grass Natural Temperate Grassland nationally listed as Critically Endangered Iron-grass Natural Temperate Grassland, Mokota Conservation Park (Photograph by Tim Bond) Description The Iron-grass Natural Temperate Grassland of South Australia is a grassland dominated by Iron- grasses (Lomandra multiflora ssp. dura and/or Lomandra effusa), with tussock-forming (clumping) grasses, low shrubs and a range of other native plants in the ground layer. Trees and tall shrubs are generally absent or very sparse (less than 10% cover). Distribution Iron-grass Grasslands are unique to South Australia. Their main distribution is on the slopes and hills of the Mount Lofty Ranges, west of the River Murray and throughout the Mid North (see adjacent map). Patches also occur on the eastern side of the River Murray near Tailem Bend, and may occur along the Hummocks Range north of the Gulf St Vincent. Conservation Status The Iron-grass Natural Temperate Grassland of South Australia is nationally listed as a critically endangered ecological community under the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Your comments are valued. Conservation Act 1999. To provide comments or information in the Major threats to this community include development of the recovery plan for this clearance and fragmentation, inappropriate ecological community, please contact: grazing regimes, and weed invasion.

    November 2009 161 Distribution and Habitats of the Thick-Billed Grasswren Amytornis textilis, subspecies myall ANDREW BLACK, GRAHAM CARPENTER AND LYNN PEDLER Abstract and Mason 1999). The last named is known from a restricted area of the eastern Gawler The Thick-billed Grasswren Amytornis textilis, Ranges and adjacent plains of north eastern Eyre subspecies myall, occurs in semi-arid South Peninsula. Two intriguing outlying specimens Australia, between Whyalla and the Gawler Ranges. that most closely match A. t. myall were taken Its distribution is largely unchanged since its by R. C. Chandler in 1909 between Barton and discovery in August 1902. Its present status in the Bates in the Yellabinna region, over 400 km to Yellabinna region, where it was recorded once in the west, but they have not been reported from 1909, is unknown. Searches in 2006 were successful that region since (Black 2004). Another outlying at 76% of 62 located sites of previous records. The report from southern Eyre Peninsula (Hall 1910) main habitats of A. t. myall are Blackbush low is considered doubtful (Schodde 1982). shrubland (40% of sites), Australian Boxthorn low shrubland (21%) and Western Myall low woodland (19%) along drainage lines, with a mean shrub The habitats of A. textilis are chenopod and cover of 30.6%. Other semi-arid low woodlands other arid shrublands, particularly where and shrublands are also frequented, even low rocky larger and denser shrubs and vegetative hills if shrub cover is sufficient. The total cover debris provide shelter down to ground level of Blackbush, Australian Boxthorn, other spiny (Schodde 1982; Brooker 2000; Higgins, Peter shrubs, Ruby Saltbush and taller shrubs (>75 cm and Steele 2001).
