These functions are supported by existing services and infrastructure. All this occurs within a landscape framework. It is recognised that the landscape development of the site is a significant factor in establishing a distinct character that reflects the overall development philosophy and objectives as described in the Masterplan. The landscape masterplan prepared by Greening Australia in 2005 established a landscape approach ‘that incorporates and builds on the strengths of the Rapid Creek catchment’s unique plant communities that include riparian monsoon forest, eucalypt woodland, melaleuca swamps and wetlands”. The resultant landscape deliberately introduces international and national visitors to the beauty and diversity of the Top End environment and associated flora. In order to provide clear direction to future works within the precinct, it has been recognised that a ‘kit of part’ comprising distinct landscape treatments is required. -
BIODIVERSITY CONSERVATION on the TIWI ISLANDS, NORTHERN TERRITORY: Part 1. Environments and Plants
BIODIVERSITY CONSERVATION ON THE TIWI ISLANDS, NORTHERN TERRITORY: Part 1. Environments and plants Report prepared by John Woinarski, Kym Brennan, Ian Cowie, Raelee Kerrigan and Craig Hempel. Darwin, August 2003 Cover photo: Tall forests dominated by Darwin stringybark Eucalyptus tetrodonta, Darwin woollybutt E. miniata and Melville Island Bloodwood Corymbia nesophila are the principal landscape element across the Tiwi islands (photo: Craig Hempel). i SUMMARY The Tiwi Islands comprise two of Australia’s largest offshore islands - Bathurst (with an area of 1693 km 2) and Melville (5788 km 2) Islands. These are Aboriginal lands lying about 20 km to the north of Darwin, Northern Territory. The islands are of generally low relief with relatively simple geological patterning. They have the highest rainfall in the Northern Territory (to about 2000 mm annual average rainfall in the far north-west of Melville and north of Bathurst). The human population of about 2000 people lives mainly in the three towns of Nguiu, Milakapati and Pirlangimpi. Tall forests dominated by Eucalyptus miniata, E. tetrodonta, and Corymbia nesophila cover about 75% of the island area. These include the best developed eucalypt forests in the Northern Territory. The Tiwi Islands also include nearly 1300 rainforest patches, with floristic composition in many of these patches distinct from that of the Northern Territory mainland. Although the total extent of rainforest on the Tiwi Islands is small (around 160 km 2 ), at an NT level this makes up an unusually high proportion of the landscape and comprises between 6 and 15% of the total NT rainforest extent. The Tiwi Islands also include nearly 200 km 2 of “treeless plains”, a vegetation type largely restricted to these islands. -

Roe River Rainforest Swamp
Assemblages of Roe River rainforest swamp TEC Description The known occurrence of the community is located within the Roe River area of the Prince Regent National Park in the northern Kimberley. The rainforest canopy is 16 m high. Tree species include Aglaia elaeagnoidea (priyangu), Alphitonia excelsa (red ash) (priority 2), Alstonia actinophylla (white cheesewood), Antidesma ghaesembilla (yangu), Bombax ceiba (kapok tree), Carallia brachiata , Cryptocarya cunninghamii , Ficus hispida , Lophostemon grandiflorus , Melaleuca viridiflora (broadleaf paperbark), Melastoma affine , Memecylon pauciflorum , Nauclea orientalis (Leichardt pine), Monoon australe , Sersalisia sericea (nangi), Syzygium angophoroides , Syzygium forte subsp. potamophilum , Timonius timon , Trema tomentosa and Vitex acuminata . The camaenid land snail assemblages in rainforest communities of the Kimberley Region can be used to distinguish patches from similar rainforest communities elsewhere in northern Australia. The community was originally described in McKenzie N.L., Johnston R.B. and Kendrick P.G. (eds) (1991) “Kimberley rainforests of Australia” (Surrey Beatty & Sons, Chipping Norton, NSW, in association with the Department of Conservation and Land Management and Department of Arts, Heritage and Environment, Canberra). Distribution Department of Biodiversity, Conservation and Attractions (DBCA Region): Kimberley DBCA District: East Kimberley Local Government Authority: Shire of Wyndham-East Kimberley Habitat Requirements The rainforest patch occurs on a spring-fed swamp on a small floodplain behind a tidal mudflat at the mouth of a sandstone valley in the estuary of the Roe River. It occurs in a very high rainfall area, experiencing 1200 mm annual rainfall. The lithology is alluvium (soils left by flowing water) deposited in the Quaternary (from 2.588 million years ago to the present) and King Leopold Sandstone/Hart dolerite. -

Trees or erect shrubs, dioecious; indumentum of simple hairs. Leaves alternate, eglandular; stipules small; petiole usually short; leaf blade simple, margin entire, venation pinnate. Inflorescences axillary, sometimes apparently terminal, or cauline, spikes or ra- cemes, sometimes much branched. Male flowers: calyx 3–5(–8)-lobed, cup-shaped, lobes imbricate; petals absent; disk extrastaminal, annular or cushion-shaped (enclosing bases of stamens and pistillode), or consisting of free lobes; stamens (1–)3–5(– 7), inserted inside/within disk or sinus of disk lobes, incurved in bud, afterward straight; filaments longer than sepals; anthers 2- locular, connectives U-shaped; thecae separate from each other, resembling swollen ends of U, raised at anthesis, dehiscing longitudinally; pistillode usually present. Female flowers: sepals as in male; disk annular surrounding ovary, entire; ovary longer than sepals, usually 1-locular; ovules 2 per locule, pendent; styles 2–4, short, terminal to lateral, apex usually bifid. Fruit a drupe, ovoid, ellipsoid, or lens-shaped, with many areoles when dry, crowned with persistent styles, usually 1-seeded. Seeds small, endosperm fleshy, cotyledon flattened and broad. x = 13. About 100 species: mainly the tropics and subtropics of Asia but also in Africa (8 species), the Pacific islands (5–8 species), and Australia (5–7 species); 11 species (two endemic) in China. Material of species no. 11, Antidesma hontaushanense, described from Taiwan (Lan Yu), has not been seen and the available description is too poor to include this taxon within the key to species.
