Doley2 1State Herbarium of South Australia, Hackney Road, Adelaide, South Australia 5000 2‘Koobabbie’, Waddy Forest, Western Australia 6515 Email: [email protected] Abstract Chinnock, R.J. & Doley, A.B. Eremophila koobabbiensis (Scrophulariaceae), a new, rare species from the wheatbelt of Western Australia. Nuytsia 21(4): 157–162 (2011). Eremophila koobabbiensis Chinnock, sp.nov., is described and illustrated. This rare species is known only from one area north of Moora and its conservation is discussed. It is also established in cultivation and its long-term survival is assured. Introduction When the monograph of Eremophila and allied genera was published (Chinnock 2007) one of the authors of this paper (RJC) was aware of a number of undescribed species in Western Australia that had been seen in the field or had been isolated from existing herbarium collections but were either inadequate for the preparation of accounts for publication, or were discovered too late to be included in the monograph. Andrew Brown (Department of Environment and Conservation, Western Australia) also drew attention to other new species of which he was aware. Since the publication of the monograph, two new taxa, E. grandiflora A.P.Br. & B.Buirchell and E. densifolia F.Muell. subsp. erecta A.P.Br. & B.Buirchell have been published (Brown & Buirchell 2007). In this paper a new and rare species is described and illustrated.

    Conservation Science W. Aust. 7 (2) : 391–412 (2009) Flora and vegetation of the banded iron formations of the Yilgarn Craton: Herbert Lukin Ridge (Wiluna) ADRIENNE S. MARKEY AND STEVEN J. DILLON Science Division, Department of Environment and Conservation, Wildlife Research Centre, PO Box 51, Wanneroo WA 6946. Email: [email protected] ABSTRACT A quadrat-based survey was undertaken on the flora and plant communities associated with the Herbert Lukin Ridge, which is a series of low hills of banded iron formation within the Joyners Find greenstone belt, in the Murchison region of Western Australia. The Herbert Lukin Ridge are is located on a pastoral lease, and mining and exploration tenements covering the entire extent. A total of 191 taxa (species, subspecies, varieties and forms) and 10 hybrids were recorded. Nine taxa of conservation significance were found, seven of these were new records for the area and three of these were notable (> 100 km) range extensions. Significant range extensions (> 200 km) are reported for four taxa not listed as being of conservation significance. One regional endemic was identified for the study area, and one putative new taxon was found. Two species are recommended for an upgrading of their conservation status. Six community types were resolved from classification analysis of floristic composition from 50 sites, covering much of the extent of this greenstone belt. Floristic communities are strongly associated with geomorphology and soil chemistry, with the greatest distinction being between upland and outwash communities. None of the described communities are represented on conservation estate. At present, mineral exploration and mining appear to pose the greatest potential threats to these particular communities.

  • Charles Weldon (De Burgh) Birch (Count Zelling), an Unassuming Botanical and Zoological Collector in Central and North-Eastern Queensland
    North Queensland Naturalist 46 (2016) Charles Weldon (de Burgh) Birch (Count Zelling), an unassuming botanical and zoological collector in central and north-eastern Queensland John Leslie DoweA AAustralian Tropical Herbarium, James Cook University, Smithfield, Qld 4878, Australia Email: [email protected] Abstract Charles Weldon (de Burgh) Birch (Count Zelling) (1821-94) was an amateur botanical and zoological collector active in central and north-eastern Queensland 1852-93. He was the embodiment of the wandering naturalist, but as with most amateur collectors he remained on the fringe of ‘official’ science. Birch’s first documented zoological collections were land and freshwater shells collected in 1857 at the Namoi River. He went on to collect freshwater invertebrates, fishes, insects, gastropods and later reptiles, a total of at least 60 specimens which were mainly sent to the Australian Museum and later the Queensland Museum. His first documented botanical collection, a Nymphaea sp. from Thomson River, was made in 1870, and was collected with the encouragement of Baron Ferdinand von Mueller, Victorian Government Botanist, and the most eminent Australian botanist of the nineteenth century. About 760 botanical specimens collected by Birch are extant, most of which are in the Herbarium of the Royal Botanic Gardens Melbourne. A significant early influence on Birch’s later activities was Samuel Stutchbury, New South Wales Government Geological Surveyor to whom Birch acted as assistant 1852-55 and for whom he anonymously collected palaeontological, mineralogical and zoological specimens as part of his field-work duties. In 1870, Birch became involved in the search for the lost explorer Ludwig Leichhardt, and was commissioned by the Ladies’ Search Committee to undertake an expedition to investigate a possible survivor of Leichhardt’s missing party living in the Thomson/Diamantina Rivers area.
