Fire and adaptive management Fire ii Growth stages and tolerable fire intervals for Victoria’s native vegetation data sets Acknowledgements Many people have contributed to this report, by providing review comment (including when requested), in fruitful discussions and instruction on a variety of issues, by providing previously written material and reports, and in other ways freely giving time and intellectual input. Because of these contributions the report is a far better summary of the current state of knowledge and management experience than it would otherwise have been. The Fire Ecology Scientific Reference Group was particularly important in providing a forum for discussion of concepts and some members meticulously reviewed earlier drafts of this report. The Fire Ecology Scientific Reference Group consists of Mike Clarke (la Trobe university), David Dunkerley (Monash university), lawrance Ferns (DSE), Gordon Friend (DSE), Richard loyn (ARI, DSE), Kevin Tolhurst (Melbourne university), Andrew Wilson (DSE) and Alan York (Melbourne university). Earlier drafts of this document were carefully reviewed by Robyn Adams (Deakin university), Andrew Blackett (DSE), Nicholas Bauer (DSE), Mike Clarke (la Trobe university), Ian lunt (Charles Sturt university), Kevin Tolhurst (Melbourne university), Neville Walsh (National herbarium of Victoria) and Andrew Wilson (DSE). Their input has been invaluable, incisive, knowledgeable and apposite. It vastly improved this document. Many other people contributed to the development of the ideas and to testing them, both conceptually and in the field. Consequently, special thanks are due to Jerry Alexander (DSE), Sue Berwick (DSE), Dan Brown (Parks Victoria), Dan Jamieson (DSE), Greg McCarthy (DSE), Andrew McMahon (Ecology Australia), Jean-Marc Porigneaux (DSE), Jill Read (Parks Victoria), Kathryn Schneider (Parks Victoria), John Stoner (Parks Victoria), Arn Tolsma (ARI, DSE) and Mike Wouters (Environment and heritage, South Australia). Finally, thanks to lawrance Ferns, Stephen Platt, Gordon Friend, Andrew Blackett and David Meagher for proof reading and editorial input, and Judy Bennett for her design work.

  • Mt Donna Buang Wingless Stonefly
    Action Statement FloraFlora and and Fauna Fauna Guarantee Guarantee Act Act 1988 1988 No. No. ### 125 Mount Donna Buang Wingless Stonefly Riekoperla darlingtoni Description and Distribution The Mount Donna Buang Wingless Stonefly, Riekoperla darlingtoni (Illies 1968) is a cryptic insect belonging to the Family Gripopterygidae in the Order Plecoptera (stoneflies). Members of this order are distinguished from other insects by their long cerci and the absence of a median tail filament. The adult Mount Donna Buang Wingless Stonefly is brown, with darker markings on the thorax (Illies 1968), and has a body length of about 12 mm, with antennae about 8 mm and cerci about 3 mm (slightly less in females) (Neumann & Morey 1984). The nymph (the sub-adult aquatic stage) resembles the adult in form, but is smaller (Neumann & Morey 1984) and has a terminal gill tuft. Aquatic immature stages and poor powers of dispersal mean that they are only found near Mount Donna Buang Wingless Stonefly freshwater. (Harvey & Yen 1989). Although adults Riekoperla darlingtoni (male) [illustration from of the majority of Australian stonefly taxa have Illies (1968)] two pairs of well-developed wings (CSIRO 1991), the ‘wings’ of this taxon are present only as tiny flaps (Illies 1968) which preclude flight and, no doubt, further limit dispersal. Despite searches of a number of mountain forest habitats in Victoria and New South Wales (Illies 1968, Hynes 1974a), the taxon is known only from the vicinity of Mount Donna Buang, near Warburton, in the Victorian Central Highlands. Since discovery of the stonefly at Mount Donna Buang in 1931, all specimens had apparently been collected within about 1km of the summit (Hynes 1974a, Neumann & Morey 1984).

ZHURBENKO1 AND YOSHIHITO OHMURA2 ABSTRACT. – Capronia thamnoliae, Cercidospora thamnoliae and Cercidospora thamnoliicola are reported new to Japan; Endococcus thamnoliae new to Papua New Guinea; Merismatium thamnoliicola new to Norway; Polycoccum vermicularium new to Argentina, Australia, Colombia, Japan, Nepal and Papua New Guinea; Sphaerellothecium thamnoliae var. taimyricum new to Nepal; S. thamnoliae var. thamnoliae new to Australia, Falkland Islands, Japan and Papua New Guinea; Sphaeropezia santessonii new to Japan; Stigmidium frigidum new to Japan; Thamnogalla crombiei new to Australia, Bhutan, India, Japan, Nepal, North Korea and Papua New Guinea. Cornutispora ciliata is newly reported from Thamnolia. Material of Polycoccum vermicularium is shown to be morphologically heterogeneous. KEYWORDS. – Biodiversity, biogeography, lichenicolous mycobiota. INTRODUCTION Thamnolia Ach. ex Shaer. (Icmadophilaceae) is among the host lichen genera with the highest diversity of known lichenicolous fungi (Diederich et al. 2018b). At least 26 species of these fungi have been documented from Thamnolia (Diederich et al. 2018a; Zhurbenko 2012, 2017; also herein). Although thamnoliicolous fungi have been specifically treated by Ihlen (1995) and Zhurbenko (2012), including an identification key presented in the latter, their distribution and frequency is still poorly known. Here we provide new distributional records, range extensions and taxonomic notes on thamnoliicolous fungi that were found in conjunction with examining material at several major herbaria. MATERIALS AND METHODS This study is based on 81 specimens of lichenicolous fungi found on Thamnolia deposited in H (33 specimens) and TNS (48 specimens).
