The pandemic has made essential self distancing and quarantining to arrest the spread of the Corona virus. As a result, most APS activities have been shelved for the time being. Being in isolation at home has been a mixed blessing.

    AUSTRALIAN NATIVE PLANTS SOCIETY AUSTRALIA HAKEA STUDY GROUP NEWSLETTER No. 65 OCTOBER 2017 ISSN0727- 7008 Leader: Paul Kennedy 210 Aireys Street Elliminyt Vic. 3250 E mail [email protected] Tel. 03-52315569 Dear members. We have had a very cold winter and now as spring emerges the cold remains with very wet conditions. Oh how I long for some warm sunshine to brighten our day. However the Hakeas have stood up to the cold weather very well and many have now flowered. Rainfall in August was 30mm but in the first 6 days of September another 56mm was recorded making the soil very moist indeed. The rain kept falling in September with 150mm recorded. Fortunately my drainage work of spoon drains and deeper drains with slotted pipe with blue metal cover on top shed a lot of water straight into the Council drains. Most of the Hakeas like well drained conditions, so building up beds and getting rid of excess water will help in making them survive. The collection here now stands at 162 species out of a possible 169. Seed of some of the remaining species hopefully will arrive here before Christmas so that I can propagate them over summer. Wanderings. Barbara and I spent most of June and July in northern NSW and Queensland to escape the cold conditions down here. I did look around for Hakeas and visited some members’ gardens. Just to the east of Cann River I found Hakea decurrens ssp. physocarpa, Hakea ulicina and Hakea teretifolia ssp. hirsuta all growing on the edge of a swamp.

  • Post-Fire Recovery of Woody Plants in the New England Tableland Bioregion
    Post-fire recovery of woody plants in the New England Tableland Bioregion Peter J. ClarkeA, Kirsten J. E. Knox, Monica L. Campbell and Lachlan M. Copeland Botany, School of Environmental and Rural Sciences, University of New England, Armidale, NSW 2351, AUSTRALIA. ACorresponding author; email: [email protected] Abstract: The resprouting response of plant species to fire is a key life history trait that has profound effects on post-fire population dynamics and community composition. This study documents the post-fire response (resprouting and maturation times) of woody species in six contrasting formations in the New England Tableland Bioregion of eastern Australia. Rainforest had the highest proportion of resprouting woody taxa and rocky outcrops had the lowest. Surprisingly, no significant difference in the median maturation length was found among habitats, but the communities varied in the range of maturation times. Within these communities, seedlings of species killed by fire, mature faster than seedlings of species that resprout. The slowest maturing species were those that have canopy held seed banks and were killed by fire, and these were used as indicator species to examine fire immaturity risk. Finally, we examine whether current fire management immaturity thresholds appear to be appropriate for these communities and find they need to be amended. Cunninghamia (2009) 11(2): 221–239 Introduction Maturation times of new recruits for those plants killed by fire is also a critical biological variable in the context of fire Fire is a pervasive ecological factor that influences the regimes because this time sets the lower limit for fire intervals evolution, distribution and abundance of woody plants that can cause local population decline or extirpation (Keith (Whelan 1995; Bond & van Wilgen 1996; Bradstock et al.

  • Natural Versus Supplemental Diets in Possums
    Natural versus Supplemental diets in possums Michelle Thomas Animalia Wildlife Shelter [email protected] 0435822699 When I first started caring for wildlife 20 years ago I started with possums. I made every possible mistake, many of which I attributed to deficient diet and lack of knowledge. My first advice on what possums ate came from a zoo who told me to feed fruit & vegetables, peppermint gum and bottlebrush. This did not seem logical, however, and I puzzled over why we should feed fruit and vegetables to native animals when such foods were not available to them in the wild or their natural habitat across the country. I bumbled along offering rose petals, geraniums, oak , willow and liquid amber leaf , none of it remotely native. By this stage the brushtail and ringtail possums in my care had been tried and tested on broccoli, cauliflower, peas, capsicum, apple, pear, watermelon, cantaloupe, sweet potato, beans, cucumber, cooked carrot, pasta, pine nuts, sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, peanut butter, button mushroom, banana, assorted stone fruits, peanuts, almonds, pine nuts, cashews, figs, cooked chicken breast, steak/chop bones with meat scraps left on, soft boiled eggs, cooked basmati rice and peanut butter or jam sandwiches. Only the best quality was given, however, the cost to provide so many possums with all of the aforementioned foods was astronomical and just when I thought I had the recipe right gastro intestinal tract (GIT) problems would arise. After attending a workshop conducted by Dr Anne Fowler in which she asked carers in attendance “why we were not feeding a more natural diet” I decided to take up the challenge; no longer would my ringtails, brushtails and gliders see anything remotely supplemental.

  • Lomatia Arborescens - Tree Lomatia
    Lomatia arborescens - Tree Lomatia Plants that only grow in nature at high elevation always intrigue me as most of the time they grow quite well when planted at lower elevations. This one is confined in nature to above 1000 meters and yet it grows quite happily on my river flat. Lomatia belongs to the Proteaceae family making them first cousins to things like Grevillea and although not as showy as Grevillea they do have a subtle uniqueness that helps them stand out. The name Lomatia is derived from the Greek word lomation meaning a small fringe referring to the winged seed and arborescens is a Latin word meaning becoming tree like. In nature this one can grow up to 25 metres tall with a stem diameter of around 50cm. The furthest south that it occurs is recorded as Mt Allyn (Bald Knob) but I have actually recorded it in the lower part of Masseys Creek State Forest. So far I have only planted one out on my riverbank and I am surprised as to how well it is growing, slow yes but getting bigger every year despite heatwaves and very little water in dry times. It usually flowers in January and is covered in native bees with the seed fully ripe about May. The flowers have a subtle scent and while not showy have a uniqueness all their own and flowering in January is quite a bonus so far as I and the bees are concerned anyway. There are several other species of Lomatia but only one other variety is tree like and that is Lomatia fraseri, the Silky Lomatia that occurs from the Otway Ranges in Victoria to the New England Range escarpment at Main Range in Queensland and west to Mt Kaputar National Park.

Hunter School of Human & Environmental Studies, University of New England NSW 2351, AUSTRALIA Email: [email protected] Abstract: The vegetation of Basket Swamp National Park (2820 ha), 30 km north east of Tenterfield (28°54’S, 152°09’E) in the Tenterfield Shire, in the Northern Tablelands Bioregion NSW, is described. Seven vegetation communities are mapped based on survey of plots, subsequent ground-truthing, air photo interpretation and substrate. Communities described are: (1) Eucalyptus campanulata (Blackbutt) – Eucalyptus cameronii (Diehard Stringybark) Open Forests, (2) Eucalyptus campanulata (Blackbutt) – Eucalyptus cameronii (Diehard Stringybark) Grassy Open Forests, (3) Leptospermum trinervium (Tea-tree) – Leptospermum polygalifolium subsp. transmontanum (Creek Tea-tree) Riparian Scrub, (4) Leptospermum trinervium (Tea-tree) – Kunzea obovata (Pink Kunzea) – Leptospermum novae-angliae (New England Tea-tree) Heaths & Shrublands, (5) Ceratopetalum apetalum (Coachwood) – Lophostemon confertus (Brush Box) Closed Forest, (6) Eucalyptus obliqua (Messmate) – Eucalyptus campanulata (Blackbutt) Tall Open Forests, and (7) Baeckea omissa (Baeckea) – Baloskion stenocoleum (Sedge) Heathy Sedgelands. All but two communities (3 & 7) were considered adequately reserved locally, no listed endangered or vulnerable commu- nities were found. Thirty-six taxa were considered to be of conservation significance of which two are listed as vulnerable on Schedule 2 of the NSW TSC Act. A further nine have been reported under the RoTAP criteria. Cunninghamia (2004) 8(4): 453–466 Introduction Basket Swamp National Park is located approximately 30 km north east of Tenterfield and 10 km west of the Mount Lindsay Highway (28°54’S, 152°09’E) (Fig.
