Introduction Calyptochloa C.E.Hubb., an endemic of axillary spikelets may be produced in the Australian genus, is placed in the subfamily absence of terminal inflorescences. Webster Panicoideae Link, tribe Paniceae R.Br. This (1987) stated that the CL spikelets occur tribe is characterised by the spikelets having singly or in pairs but we have not observed a pair of dimorphic florets with the lower paired spikelets in any specimens at BRI, often incomplete, male or sterile, and falling including those cited by Webster (1987), until entire, the upper fertile, and by the relative we examined the type specimen for one of the induration of the glumes and lemmas (Clayton new species described herein (Calyptochloa & Renvoize 1986; Kellogg & Campbell 1987). johnsoniana E.J.Thomps. & B.K.Simon). In Calyptochloa is amphigamous by having two Calyptochloa, the CL spikelets are obligately types of inflorescences, viz. in terminal and self-fertilised and never open. Plants of axillary positions. The terminal inflorescence Calyptochloa retain the CL spikelets for a few (Connor 1979), is a spike-like raceme with months enclosed in the leaf sheaths before chasmogamous (CH) pedicillate spikelets disarticulation at the culm nodes or at the leaf that open at maturity and thereby potentially sheath bases which then fall at maturity with cross-fertilise. Conversely, the axillary subsequent dispersal of the caryopses. inflorescence usually consists of a single Calyptochloa has remained a monotypic sessile cleistogamous (enclosed self-fertilising genus since description with only C. gracillima flowers) (CL) spikelet which is hidden within C.E.Hubb. recognised until now (Hubbard semi-woody to woody leaf sheaths at each of 1933b; Tothill & Hacker 1983). The genus is several nodes along the culm. In the summer characterised by the perennial mat-forming wet season, the axillary spikelets are produced growth habit and the fertile leaf sheaths at nodes with the terminal inflorescence which enclose the CL spikelets. Clifford & above. At other times of the year, these chains Ludlow (1972) differentiated Calyptochloa from other Queensland grass genera in their Accepted for publication 20 August 2012 key using “stems disarticulating at the nodes at maturity” and “prostrate to creeping” habit. Thompson & Simon, Calyptochloa 635 The genus is both clonal (stoloniferous) and CH spikelets (Campbell et al. 1983) include cleistogamous, a rare combination in grasses the following: (Campbell et al. 1983). a) reduced CL inflorescence size, usually one Cleistochloa C.E.Hubb.

Dimorphochloa CH caryopses when present. S.T.Blake (Blake 1941; Simon et al. 2010), Campbell et al. (1983) provided a detailed which is also an Australian CL panicoid classification of CL species comprising genus, was correctly omitted from Connor’s four types based on factors that relate to (1981) list taking into account that this genus prevention of the spikelets from opening had not been synonymised with Cleistochloa including leaf sheath, spikelet parts or the soil (Clayton & Renvoize 1986; Webster 1987) conditions. Campbell et al. (1983) classified at the time. Although Dimorphochloa has Calyptochloa and Cleistochloa as type II amphigamous inflorescences it differs from where fertilisation occurs in spikelets hidden these other genera in terms of the CL spikelets in the lowermost sheaths and this type is as follows: similar to the CH spikelets, usually associated with major inflorescence located apically on branchlets below the and spikelet differentiation. Chase (1908) terminal inflorescences, and not hidden in referred to these clandestine CL spikelets at the leaf sheaths at anthesis. Amphicarpum or near the ground as cleistogenes. However, Kunth, another CL panicoid genus from Calyptochloa and Cleistochloa have CL eastern North America, was also omitted spikelets enclosed in the sheaths in upper from Connor’s (1981) list. Amphicarpum has axils at fertilisation and the upper floret has amphigamous inflorescences and dimorphic modifications including revolute lemma and spikelets but differs by the subterranean CL palea, and lodicules are absent, which prevent spikelets (rhizanthogenes) which are borne at the floret from opening.

  • Grass Genera in Townsville
    Grass Genera in Townsville Nanette B. Hooker Photographs by Chris Gardiner SCHOOL OF MARINE and TROPICAL BIOLOGY JAMES COOK UNIVERSITY TOWNSVILLE QUEENSLAND James Cook University 2012 GRASSES OF THE TOWNSVILLE AREA Welcome to the grasses of the Townsville area. The genera covered in this treatment are those found in the lowland areas around Townsville as far north as Bluewater, south to Alligator Creek and west to the base of Hervey’s Range. Most of these genera will also be found in neighbouring areas although some genera not included may occur in specific habitats. The aim of this book is to provide a description of the grass genera as well as a list of species. The grasses belong to a very widespread and large family called the Poaceae. The original family name Gramineae is used in some publications, in Australia the preferred family name is Poaceae. It is one of the largest flowering plant families of the world, comprising more than 700 genera, and more than 10,000 species. In Australia there are over 1300 species including non-native grasses. In the Townsville area there are more than 220 grass species. The grasses have highly modified flowers arranged in a variety of ways. Because they are highly modified and specialized, there are also many new terms used to describe the various features. Hence there is a lot of terminology that chiefly applies to grasses, but some terms are used also in the sedge family. The basic unit of the grass inflorescence (The flowering part) is the spikelet. The spikelet consists of 1-2 basal glumes (bracts at the base) that subtend 1-many florets or flowers.

Postgraduate Scholarship. iii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS My time in the Taxonomy Unit has been a happy one: I could not have asked for better supervision for my project or for a more congenial atmosphere in which to work. To Dr. Paul Hattersley, for his help, advice, encouragement and friendship, I owe a lot more than can be said in just a few words: but, Paul, thanks very much! To Mr. Les Watson I owe as much for his own support and guidance, and for many discussions on things often psittacaceous as well as graminaceous! Dr. Nancy Stone was a kind teacher in many days of enzyme assays and Chris Frylink a great help and friend both in and out of the lab •• Further thanks go to Mike Lazarides (Australian National Herbarium, c.s.I.R.O.) for identifying many grass specimens and for unpublished data on infrageneric groups in Eragrostis; Dr.

  • The Vegetation of Granitic Outcrop Communities on the New England Batholith of Eastern Australia
    547 The vegetation of granitic outcrop communities on the New England Batholith of eastern Australia John T. Hunter and Peter J. Clarke Hunter, John T. and Clarke, Peter J. (Division of Botany, University of New England, Armidale, NSW 2350) 1998. The vegetation of granitic outcrop communities on the New England Batholith of eastern Australia. Cunninghamia 5 (3): 547–618. The vegetation of 22 areas of granitic outcrops on the New England Batholith has been surveyed using semi-quantitative quadrat sampling. In total 399 0.1 ha quadrats were placed on 216 outcrops. Twenty-eight plant communities in nine major groups and an additional unsurveyed community are circumscribed. A high number of nationally rare or threatened taxa, many of which are restricted to outcrop areas, have been found in these communities along with many taxa of special note. Previous studies have over-emphasised structure which can vary considerably with negligible floristic change. Suggestions are made on potential areas for reservation. Introduction Studies concentrating on the vegetation of granitic outcrops have been undertaken throughout the world (e.g. Whitehouse 1933; Oosting & Anderson 1937; McVaugh 1943; Keever et al. 1951; Keever 1957; Hambler 1964; Murdy et al. 1970; Sharitz & McCormick 1973; Rundel 1975; Shure & Fagsdale 1977; Wyatt 1977; Phillips 1981; Phillips 1982; Wyatt 1981; Baskin & Baskin 1982; Walters 1982; Burbanck & Phillips 1983; Wyatt 1984a, b; Uno & Collins 1987; Baskin & Baskin 1988; Houle & Phillips 1988; Houle & Phillips 1989a, b; Houle 1990; Porembski et al. 1994; Ibisch et al. 1995; Porembski 1995; Porembski et al. 1996).

  • Lose the Plot: Cost-Effective Survey of the Peak Range, Central Queensland
    Lose the plot: cost-effective survey of the Peak Range, central Queensland. Don W. Butlera and Rod J. Fensham Queensland Herbarium, Environmental Protection Agency, Mt Coot-tha Botanic Gardens, Mt Coot-tha Road, Toowong, QLD, 4066 AUSTRALIA. aCorresponding author, email: [email protected] Abstract: The Peak Range (22˚ 28’ S; 147˚ 53’ E) is an archipelago of rocky peaks set in grassy basalt rolling-plains, east of Clermont in central Queensland. This report describes the flora and vegetation based on surveys of 26 peaks. The survey recorded all plant species encountered on traverses of distinct habitat zones, which included the ‘matrix’ adjacent to each peak. The method involved effort comparable to a general flora survey but provided sufficient information to also describe floristic association among peaks, broad habitat types, and contrast vegetation on the peaks with the surrounding landscape matrix. The flora of the Peak Range includes at least 507 native vascular plant species, representing 84 plant families. Exotic species are relatively few, with 36 species recorded, but can be quite prominent in some situations. The most abundant exotic plants are the grass Melinis repens and the forb Bidens bipinnata. Plant distribution patterns among peaks suggest three primary groups related to position within the range and geology. The Peak Range makes a substantial contribution to the botanical diversity of its region and harbours several endemic plants among a flora clearly distinct from that of the surrounding terrain. The distinctiveness of the range’s flora is due to two habitat components: dry rainforest patches reliant upon fire protection afforded by cliffs and scree, and; rocky summits and hillsides supporting xeric shrublands.
