Targeted flora survey – Trieste Project 15. 4.3. Priority Two Flora Three priority two flora species, as listed by the WAH (1998- ), were recorded within the Trieste 3D Seismic Project area (Figure 4.3). Brief descriptions of these species are provided below. 4.3.1. Persoonia filiformis (P2) - PROTEACEAE Persoonia filiformis is an erect to spreading lignotuberous shrub to 40 cm tall. It flowers from November to December and often occurs on sand over laterite (Plate 3a; WAH 1998- ). One-hundred and fifty-four plants were recorded scattered in heathland in the UCL. Persoonia filiformis was not recorded in any of the surveyed private properties. 4.3.2. Stylidium pseudocaespitosum (P2) - STYLIDIACEAE Stylidium pseudocaespitosum is a rosetted perennial herb with tufted leaves, to 30 cm tall. It flowers from September to November and occurs on sand over laterite, or on breakaways and hill slopes (Plate 3b; WAH 1998- ). Small populations of Stylidium pseudocaespitosum were recorded scattered in heathland, open woodland or isolated trees over open heathland in the central-northern UCL area. Usually less than five plants were recorded at a location. Stylidium pseudocaespitosum was not recorded in any of the surveyed private properties. 4.3.3. Micromyrtus uniovulum (P2) - MYRTACEAE Micromyrtus uniovulum is a low and spreading shrub to 40 cm tall. It flowers from September to November and often occurs on lateritic rises in sandy soil over laterite (Rye 2002). The specimen collected was from a known historic record south of Sundalara Road (PERTH 07305826; WAH 1998- ) and no plants were recorded along the Source or Receiver lines within the Trieste 3D Seismic Project. Furthermore, M. uniovulum was not included in any impact calculations or any subsequent sections in this report. a b Plate 3: Priority two inflorescences and habit. a Persoonia filiformis; and b Stylidium pseudocaespitosum. 330000 335000 340000 345000 6735000 6735000 ") ")") ")")")") ")")")") ")")") ")") ")")") ") ")") ") ") ") ") ")") ")")") ") ") ") ") ")")") ")") ") ")") ") ") ")")")") ")") ") 6730000 ") 6730000 ") ")")") ") ") ")")")") ") ")")") ")")")")")")") ")") ") ") ") ") ")")")")")")") ")") ") ") ") ")") ") EP 320 R5 ")") 6725000 6725000 R 25495 6720000 6720000 6715000 6715000 Priority 2 Flora ") Micromyrtus uniovulum ") Persoonia filiformis ") Stylidium pseudocaespitosum 330000 335000 340000 345000 Legend 0 0.75 1.5km Figure: Trieste 3D Seismic Project Exploration Permit EP320 Treiste 3D Seismic Survey Source Lines DBCA Estate Scale: 1:75,000 28 Central Road, Kalamunda WA 6076 ~ Tel: 9257 1625 ~ Fax: 9257 1640 MGA94 (Zone 50) Receiver Lines Author: E M Mattiske MCPL Ref: LEP1701 CAD Ref: a2505R004_03 Priority 2 Flora Locations ± Drawn: CAD Resources ~ www.cadresources.com.au Imagery: Landgate (Nov 2016) Date: Dec 2017 Rev: B A3 Tel: (08) 9246 3242 ~ Fax (08) 9246 3202 4.3 Targeted flora survey – Trieste Project 17. 4.4. Priority Three Flora Eleven priority three flora species, as listed by the WAH (1998- ), were recorded within the Trieste 3D Seismic Project area (Figure 4.4). Brief descriptions of these species are provided below. 4.4.1. Grevillea biformis subsp. cymbiformis (P3) - PROTEACEAE Grevillea biformis subsp. cymbiformis is a shrub to 1.5 m tall. It flowers between January to March, or August to December (WAH 1998- ). A single plant was recorded along a Receiver line in the central- eastern portion of the UCL. Grevillea biformis subsp. cymbiformis was not recorded in any of the surveyed private properties. 4.4.2. Guichenotia alba (P3) - MALVACEAE Guichenotia alba is a slender, lax, few-branched shrub to 45 cm tall. It flowers from July to August and occurs on sandy clay or gravelly soils, on low-lying flats and depressions which are winter-wet (Plate 4a; Keighery 1998; WAH 1998- ). Seventy-five plants were recorded at four populations in the central- and south-western UCL area. Guichenotia alba was not recorded in any of the surveyed private properties. 4.4.3. Hemiandra sp. Eneabba (H. Demarz 3687) (P3) - LAMIACEAE Hemiandra sp. Eneabba (H. Demarz 3687) is a straggly, erect shrub to 90 cm tall. It flowers between November and February and often occurs on sand (WAH 1998- ). Two-hundred and forty-three plants were recorded scattered in low numbers in the UCL, mostly in the south-west area and the south. Hemiandra sp. Eneabba (H. Demarz 3687) was not recorded in any of the surveyed private properties. 4.4.4. Hypocalymma gardneri (P3) - MYRTACEAE Hypocalymma gardneri is a shrub to 30 cm tall. It flowers between August and September and often occurs on sand or laterite on sandplains, upper slopes and heathland (Plate 4b; WAH 1998- ). Hypocalymma gardneri was recorded in the UCL at four locations, each of a single plant. 4.4.5. Mesomelaena stygia subsp. deflexa (P3) - CYPERACEAE Mesomelaena stygia subsp. deflexa is a tufted, perennial sedge to 50 cm tall. It flowers from March to October and occurs on a variety of soils in heathland (Plate 4d; Wilson 1981; WAH 1998- ). Mesomelaena stygia subsp. deflexa was often recorded in dense numbers on the cream-yellow sands on undulating plains associated with open heathland in the Trieste 3D Seismic Project area. It was not recorded in any of the surveyed private properties. The single historic record from Robb Road in the UCL was relocated, and the population numbers expanded. 4.4.6. Persoonia rudis (P3) - PROTEACEAE Persoonia rudis is an erect, often spreading shrub to 1 m tall. It flowers from September to December (January) and often occurs on sand over laterite (Plate 4e; WAH 1998- ). It was recorded mostly in the central and south-western areas of the UCL as scattered plants (1-2 plants at each location) in heathland. 4.4.7. Stylidium drummondianum (P3) - STYLIDIACEAE Stylidium drummondianum is a rosetted perennial herb to 20 cm tall. It flowers from August to October and often occurs on lateritic ridges and slopes with gravelly skeletal soils (Plate 4g; WAH 1998- ). It was recorded from the central-western lateritic ridges (west of Robb Road) and north-eastern lateritic ridges Targeted flora survey – Trieste Project 18. in the UCL, and the lateritic ridges in the Brickley’s and Morgan’s private properties. Stylidium drummondianum was often recorded in similar habitat to the threatened orchids, therefore a lesser impact is expected due to the deviations around the ridges and hand deployment along Receiver lines. 4.4.8. Stylidium torticarpum (P3) - STYLIDIACEAE Stylidium torticarpum is a caespitose perennial herb with tufted leaves, growing to 27 cm tall. It flowers from September to November and often occurs on sandy clay soils on winter-wet creek margins, adjacent watersheds and depressions or beneath breakaways (Plate 4h; Lowrie and Kenneally 1997; WAH 1998- ). Stylidium torticarpum was recorded in the damper areas or depressions between lateritic ridges in the south-east UCL as well as the creekline in the north-east UCL. 4.4.9. Synaphea oulopha (P3) - PROTEACEAE Synaphea oulopha is a compact shrub to 20 cm tall. It flowers from July to October and often occurs on lateritic breakaways and rises (Plate 4c; WAH 1998- ). Twenty-five plants of Synaphea oulopha were recorded in a confined area (90 x 20 m) in the south-west UCL along a Source line. 4.4.10. Verticordia luteola var. luteola (P3) - MYRTACEAE Verticordia luteola var. luteola is a slender shrub to 1.4 m tall. It flowers from November to December and often occurs on sand over gravel on flats (Plate 4f; WAH 1998- ). A single plant was recorded along a Source line just off Robb Road in the UCL. 4.4.11. Verticordia densiflora var. roseostella (P3) - MYRTACEAE Verticordia densiflora var. roseostella is an open shrub to 1.3 m tall. It flowers from September to December and often occurs on sandy gravelly soils (Plate 4i; WAH 1998- ). Seventy-eight plants were recorded as a single population along a Receiver line in the Mallee Tree Farm private property. Verticordia densiflora var. roseostella was not recorded in the UCL.

Banksia vincentia (Proteaceae), a new species known from fourteen plants from south-eastern New South Wales, Australia MARGARET L. STIMPSON1, JEREMY J. BRUHL1 & PETER H. WESTON2 1 Botany, School of Environmental and Rural Science, University of New England, Armidale NSW 2351 Australia Corresponding Author Email: [email protected] 2 National Herbarium of New South Wales, Royal Botanic Garden Sydney, Mrs Macquaries Road, Sydney, NSW 2000, Australia Abstract Possession of hooked, distinctively discolorous styles, a broadly flabellate common bract subtending each flower pair, and a lignotuber place a putative new species, Banksia sp. Jervis Bay, in the B. spinulosa complex. Phenetic analysis of individuals from all named taxa in the B. spinulosa complex, including B. sp. Jervis Bay, based on leaf, floral, seed and bract characters support recognition of this species, which is described here as Banksia vincentia M.L.Stimpson & P.H.Weston. Known only from fourteen individuals, B. vincentia is distinguished by its semi-prostrate habit, with basally prostrate, distally ascending branches from the lignotuber, and distinctive perianth colouring. Its geographical location and ecological niche also separate it from its most similar congeners. Introduction The Banksia spinulosa complex has a complicated taxonomic history (Table 1). Smith (1793) first described and named B. spinulosa Sm., and subsequent botanists named two close relatives, B. collina R.Br. and B.

Crous Decem ber 1999 Stellenbosch University https://scholar.sun.ac.za DECLARATION 1, the undersigned, hereby declare that the work contained in this thesis is my own original work and has not previously in its entirety or in part been submitted at any university for a degree. SIGNATURE: DATE: Stellenbosch University https://scholar.sun.ac.za PATHOGENS ASSOCIATED WITH DISEASES OF PROTEA, LEUCOSPERMUM ANDLEUCADENDRONSPP. SUMMARY The manuscript consists of six chapters that represent research on different diseases and records of new diseases of the Proteaceae world-wide. The fungal descriptions presented in this thesis are not effectively published, and will thus be formally published elsewhere in scientific journals. Chapter one is a review that gives a detailed description of the major fungal pathogens of the genera Protea, Leucospermum and Leucadendron, as reported up to 1996. The pathogens are grouped according to the diseases they cause on roots, leaves, stems and flowers, as well as the canker causing fungi. In chapter two, several new fungi occurring on leaves of Pro tea, Leucospermum, Telopea and Brabejum collected from South Africa, Australia or New Zealand are described. The following fungi are described: Cladophialophora proteae, Coniolhyrium nitidae, Coniothyrium proteae, Coniolhyrium leucospermi,Harknessia leucospermi, Septoria prolearum and Mycosphaerella telopeae spp. nov. Furthermore, two Phylloslicla spp., telopeae and owaniana are also redecribed. The taxonomy of the Eisinoe spp.

    HAIRY PHALANX GREVILLEA (Grevillea dryandroides subsp. hirsuta) RECOVERY PLAN Department of Conservation and Land Management Kensington Recovery Plan for Grevillea dryandroides subsp. hirsuta FOREWORD Interim Recovery Plans (IRPs) are developed within the framework laid down in Department of Conservation and Land Management (CALM) [now Department of Environment and Conservation (DEC)] Policy Statements Nos. 44 and 50. Note: the Department of CALM formally became the Department of Environment and Conservation (DEC) in July 2006. DEC will continue to adhere to these Policy Statements until they are revised and reissued. IRPs outline the recovery actions that are required to urgently address those threatening processes most affecting the ongoing survival of threatened taxa or ecological communities, and begin the recovery process. DEC is committed to ensuring that Threatened taxa are conserved through the preparation and implementation of Recovery Plans (RPs) or IRPs, and by ensuring that conservation action commences as soon as possible and, in the case of Critically Endangered (CR) taxa, always within one year of endorsement of that rank by the Minister. This Interim Recovery Plan will operate from May 2006 to April 2011 but will remain in force until withdrawn or replaced. It is intended that, if the taxon is still ranked Vulnerable, this IRP will be reviewed after five years and the need for a full recovery plan assessed. This IRP was given regional approval on 13 February, 2006 and was approved by the Director of Nature Conservation on 22 February, 2006. The provision of funds and personnel identified in this Interim Recovery Plan is dependent on budgetary and other constraints affecting DEC, as well as the need to address other priorities.
