These run from their northern sources between Cardinia Reservoir and Bunyip State Park in the Yarra Ranges (Highlands – Southern Fall Bioregion) in the north, down through to the Gippsland Plains Bioregion in the south to their common outlet at the Inlets Reserve / Dalmore outflow on Western Port. The Bunyip River / Main Drain catchment, to the east of the Cardinia Creeks catchment and historically linked with it as part of the huge Kooweerup Swamp, has similar flora, fauna and threats and lies predominantly within Cardinia Shire. Including the City of Casey and Cardinia Shire portions of both waterways and their environs and linkages (referred to as the ‘Cardinia Waterways Catchments’, CWCs, in this Plan) in the Healesville to Phillip Island Nature Link provides a greater chance of achieving ecological sustainability. The South East Urban Growth Corridor transverses the northern parts of the largely agricultural catchments in west-east orientation and the proposed new Monomeith airport is planned immediately south-east of the subject area. Standout marine and coastal features include Western Port and the associated intertidal zone (seagrasses, mangroves, saltmarshes, and coastal scrub). Wetland and waterway features include edges of the Ramsar-listed Western Port Bay, smaller wetlands and watercourses, and associated riparian and wetland vegetation communities. Terrestrial ecosystem features within the catchment are heathlands, woodlands, scrublands and forests, including remnant Cool Temperate Rainforest with relict Myrtle Beech Nothofagus cunninghamii whose lineage goes back tens of millions of years to the breakup of Gondwana. 5 Overview of the Significance of the CWCs International Significance: The whole of the 4922 South Gippsland Clyde Manks Rd Rail CWCs are internationally recognised as part of Reserve – National The Mornington Peninsula and Western Port 6781 The Inlets Reserve - National UNESCO Biosphere Reserve, one of 14 6861 Bunyip Environs - National Biosphere Reserves recognised for their 6863 Tea Tree Range - National biodiversity values in Australia and one of 631 6869 Parker Road Gembrook - National Reserves world-wide.

    Biodiversity Summary for NRM Regions Species List What is the summary for and where does it come from? This list has been produced by the Department of Sustainability, Environment, Water, Population and Communities (SEWPC) for the Natural Resource Management Spatial Information System. The list was produced using the AustralianAustralian 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. For each family of plant and animal covered by ANHAT (Appendix 1), this document gives the number of species in the country and how many of them are found in the region. It also identifies species listed as Vulnerable, Critically Endangered, Endangered or Conservation Dependent under the EPBC Act. A biodiversity summary for this region is also available. For more information please see: www.environment.gov.au/heritage/anhat/index.html 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. Groups notnot yet yet covered covered in inANHAT ANHAT are notnot included included in in the the list. list. • The data used come from authoritative sources, but they are not perfect. All species names have been confirmed as valid species names, but it is not possible to confirm all species locations.

  • An Investigation of Phyllode Variation in Acacia Verniciflua and A. Leprosa
    CSIRO PUBLISHING www.publish.csiro.au/journals/asb Australian Systematic Botany 18, 383–398 An investigation of phyllode variation in Acacia verniciflua and A. leprosa (Mimosaceae), and implications for taxonomy Stuart K. GardnerA, Daniel J. MurphyB,C, Edward NewbiginA, Andrew N. DrinnanA and Pauline Y. LadigesA ASchool of Botany, The University of Melbourne, Vic. 3010, Australia. BRoyal Botanic Gardens Melbourne, Private Bag 2000, South Yarra, Vic. 3141, Australia. CCorresponding author. Email: [email protected] Abstract. Acacia verniciflua A.Cunn. and A. leprosa Sieber ex DC. are believed to be closely related, although strict interpretation of the current sectional classification of subgenus Phyllodineae places them in separate sections based on main nerve number. Six populations, comprised of the common and the southern variants of A. verniciflua and the large phyllode variant of A. leprosa, were sampled to test the value of nerve number as a taxonomic character and the current delimitation of these geographically variable species. Morphometrics, microscopy and the AFLP technique were used to compare and contrast populations. Phyllode nerve development was investigated and the abaxial nerve was found to be homologous with the mid-rib of a simple leaf. Three taxa were differentiated, two that are consistently two-nerved and one taxon that is variably one-nerved, two-nerved or both within a single plant. The first two-nerved taxon, characterised by smaller phyllodes, matches the type specimen of A. verniciflua. The second two-nerved taxon, characterised by large phyllodes, is apparently endemic to Mt William. The third taxon, with variable main nerve number, also has large phyllodes, and combines large phyllode variant A.

This consultancy has arisen because Forestry Tasmania (Mersey District) proposes to subject BG034A to native forest silviculture. In correspondence (27 March 2007) between the Crowther family (who live immediately adjacent to the State forest) and Mr Bob Hamilton (Forestry Tasmania, Mersey District), the potential significance of this part of State forest for terrestrial native orchids was raised. Specifically, the Crowther family indicated that about 40 species of orchids have been found from within the proposed coupe area (and several more species in nearby areas), and the list provided in correspondence included three species currently listed on the Tasmanian Threatened Species Protection Act 1995. The Forest Practices Authority engaged ECOtas to determine the significance of the proposed coupe, especially in regard to the potential of the area to support species of high conservation significance (e.g. legislatively listed species, species with unusual or disjunct distributions, etc.). The report is deliberately brief and is not intended to provide recommendations or management prescriptions for threatened flora.

The calendar says the end of September, but it is blowing and snowing outside so it doesn’t feel quite like spring yet (or then again, maybe we should expect this in Hobart in Septem- ber!) Roll on warm sunny days and spring flowers! News from the Nursery This is the main propagation time in the nursery. In July, we start doing hundreds of punnets of cuttings, with the plant material largely coming from stock plants within the nursery. The cuttings then sit in a greenhouse for a few weeks or longer developing roots before being potted up into 75 round tubes and shifted out into a shade house to harden off. They are then moved out into our open storage area, and then finally into sales. In September we start on growing plants from seed. We either collect the seed ourselves from plants in the nursery or in the bush, or use a commercial seed collecting agency. After the seeds germinate the new plants are pricked out into square tubes, and then go through the same hardening off process as the cutting grown material. We are slowly making a few changes around the nursery – nothing major, but we’re developing new areas to make finding plants easier.
