  • Gum Trees Talk Notes
    Australian Plants Society NORTH SHORE GROUP Eucalyptus, Angophora, Corymbia FAMILY MYRTACEAE GUM TREES OF THE KU-RING-GAI WILDFLOWER GARDEN Did you know that: • The fossil evidence for the first known Gum Tree was from the Tertiary 35-40 million years ago. • Myrtaceae is a very large family of over 140 genera and 3000 species of evergreen trees and shrubs. • There are over 900 species of Gum Trees in the Family Myrtaceae in Australia. • In the KWG, the Gum Trees are represented in the 3 genera: Eucalyptus, Angophora & Corymbia. • The name Eucalyptus is derived from the Greek eu = well and kalyptos = covered. BRIEF HISTORY E. obliqua The 18th &19th centuries were periods of extensive land exploration in Australia. Enormous numbers of specimens of native flora were collected and ended up in England. The first recorded scientific collection of Australian flora was made by Joseph Banks and Daniel Solander, during Sir James Cook’s 1st voyage to Botany Bay in April 1770. From 1800-1810, George Caley collected widely in N.S.W with exceptional skill and knowledge in his observations, superb preservation of plant specimens, extensive records and fluent expression in written records. It is a great pity that his findings were not published and he didn’t receive the recognition he deserved. The identification and classification of the Australian genus Eucalyptus began in 1788 when the French botanist Charles L’Heritier de Brutelle named a specimen in the British Museum London, Eucalyptus obliqua. This specimen was collected by botanist David Nelson on Captain Cook’s ill- fated third expedition in 1777 to Adventure Bay on Tasmania’s Bruny Is.

  • Hawkesbury-Nepean, New South Wales
    Biodiversity Summary for NRM Regions Guide to Users Background What is the summary for and where does it come from? This summary has been produced by the Department of Sustainability, Environment, Water, Population and Communities (SEWPC) for the Natural Resource Management Spatial Information System. It highlights important elements of the biodiversity of the region in two ways: • Listing species which may be significant for management because they are found only in the region, mainly in the region, or they have a conservation status such as endangered or vulnerable. • Comparing the region to other parts of Australia in terms of the composition and distribution of its species, to suggest components of its biodiversity which may be nationally significant. The summary was produced using the Australian 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. Limitations • ANHAT currently contains information on the distribution of over 30,000 Australian taxa. This includes all mammals, birds, reptiles, frogs and fish, 137 families of vascular plants (over 15,000 species) and a range of invertebrate groups. The list of families covered in ANHAT is shown in Appendix 1. Groups notnot yet yet covered covered in inANHAT ANHAT are are not not included included in the in the summary. • The data used for this summary come from authoritative sources, but they are not perfect.
