Executive Summary This report provides an overview of the conservation status of roadside remnant vegetation in the Shire of Kalamunda. The report primarily gives detailed results of the roadside vegetation survey and is accompanied by management recommendations. It also describes the natural environment in Kalamunda, legislative considerations and threats to conservation values. Aware of the need to conserve roadside remnants, the Shire of Kalamunda liaised with the Roadside Conservation Committee (RCC) to survey roadsides in the Shire. Surveys to assess the conservation values of roadside remnant vegetation were conducted between May 2013 and February 2015. Over 220km of the Shire’s rural roadsides and roadsides adjoining bushland (including national parks, nature reserves & shire reserves) were assessed by the RCC for their conservation status, and maps were produced via a Geographic Information System (GIS). Roadside locations of six nominated weeds (African lovegrass, eastern states wattles, fleabane, plantain, tagasaste and Victorian teatree) were also recorded and mapped. The results of the survey indicated that 42% of the roadsides

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.

    Cunninghamia Date of Publication: February 2020 A journal of plant ecology for eastern Australia ISSN 0727- 9620 (print) • ISSN 2200 - 405X (Online) The Australian paintings of Marianne North, 1880–1881: landscapes ‘doomed shortly to disappear’ John Leslie Dowe Australian Tropical Herbarium, James Cook University, Smithfield, Qld 4878 AUSTRALIA. [email protected] Abstract: The 80 paintings of Australian flora, fauna and landscapes by English artist Marianne North (1830-1890), completed during her travels in 1880–1881, provide a record of the Australian environment rarely presented by artists at that time. In the words of her mentor Sir Joseph Dalton Hooker, director of Kew Gardens, North’s objective was to capture landscapes that were ‘doomed shortly to disappear before the axe and the forest fires, the plough and the flock, or the ever advancing settler or colonist’. In addition to her paintings, North wrote books recollecting her travels, in which she presented her observations and explained the relevance of her paintings, within the principles of a ‘Darwinian vision,’ and inevitable and rapid environmental change. By examining her paintings and writings together, North’s works provide a documented narrative of the state of the Australian environment in the late nineteenth- century, filtered through the themes of personal botanical discovery, colonial expansion and British imperialism.

  • Native Pea Plants Walkabout KWG
    Native Pea Plants Walkabout KWG standard (petal) wing wing (petal) (petal) keel (2 petals) Pea plants and wattles (botanically, members of the Fabaceae family) both possess root nodules containing nitrogen-fixing bacteria and have pods as their fruit. We classify the pea plants as Fabaceae, Subfamily Faboideae, the wattles as Fabaceae, Subfamily Mimosoideae. Many native pea plants grow in Ku-ring-gai Wildflower Garden, most of them with yellow–coloured flowers. Take a walk through the garden and see if you can find them. To help with their identification pictures of these species are shown below and underneath each picture a few key features are noted. Fuller descriptions of these plants can be found on Australian Plants Society – North Shore Group Blandfordia website: https://austplants.com.au/North-Shore/ in “Notes” on the Walks & Talks page. Excellent pictures can be found on the Hornsby Library website: www.hornsby.nsw.gov.au/library under: eLibrary, Learning and Research, Hornsby Herbarium.

We compared floral presentation, pollen-pistil interactions, pollination ecology, and interspecific hybridization in two populations of T. macrophylla where its flowering periods overlapped with T. antennifera (Tenterden) and T. crinita (Lesmurdie) respectively. Pollen-pistil interactions were studied using glasshouse collections of T. crinita and T. macrophylla at KPBG. The number of flowers per inflorescence in T. macrophylla varied significantly between sites. Climatic conditions influenced flower opening and closing regimes differently in T. crinita vs. T. macrophylla. While all three Thelymitra species opened on warm, sunny mornings and closed by late afternoon, T. crinita at Lesmurdie was significantly more likely to open its perianth segments on cool days compared to the co-blooming, sympatric flowers of T. macrophylla. The floral lifespans of individual flowers of T. macrophylla and T. crinita were reduced significantly following application of Thelymitra pollen onto the stigmatic surface but were not reduced by pollinarium removal. Flowers of both species were self-compatible but neither species self-pollinated mechanically (autogamy).

  • Eucalyptus Balanites Interim Recovery Plan 2004-2009
    WA INTERIM RECOVERY PLAN NO. 182 CADDA ROAD MALLEE (EUCALYPTUS BALANITES) RECOVERY PLAN Department of Environment and Conservation Species and Communities Branch (SCB) Kensington Recovery Plan for Eucalyptus balanites FOREWORD Interim Recovery Plans (IRPs) are developed within the framework laid down in Department of Conservation and Land Management (CALM) [now Department of Environment and Conservation (DEC)] Policy Statements Nos. 44 and 50. IRPs outline the recovery actions that are required to urgently address those threatening processes most affecting the ongoing survival of threatened taxa or ecological communities, and begin the recovery process. DEC is committed to ensuring that Critically Endangered taxa are conserved through the preparation and implementation of Recovery Plans or Interim Recovery Plans and by ensuring that conservation action commences as soon as possible and always within one year of endorsement of that rank by the Minister. This Interim Recovery Plan will operate from May 2004 to April 2009 but will remain in force until withdrawn or replaced. It is intended that, if the taxon is still ranked Critically Endangered, this IRP will be reviewed after five years and the need for a full recovery plan assessed. This IRP was given regional approval on 30 August, 2004 and was approved by the Director of Nature Conservation on 24 September, 2004. The provision of funds and personnel identified in this Interim Recovery Plan is dependent on budgetary and other constraints affecting DEC, as well as the need to address other priorities. This IRP was prepared with financial support from the Australian Government to be adopted as a National Recovery Plan under the provisions of the Commonwealth Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999 (EPBC Act).
