Australian Orchidaceae: Genera and Species (12/1/2004)
AUSTRALIAN ORCHID NAME INDEX (21/1/2008) by Mark A. Clements Centre for Plant Biodiversity Research/Australian National Herbarium GPO Box 1600 Canberra ACT 2601 Australia Corresponding author: [email protected] INTRODUCTION The Australian Orchid Name Index (AONI) provides the currently accepted scientific names, together with their synonyms, of all Australian orchids including those in external territories. The appropriate scientific name for each orchid taxon is based on data published in the scientific or historical literature, and/or from study of the relevant type specimens or illustrations and study of taxa as herbarium specimens, in the field or in the living state. Structure of the index: Genera and species are listed alphabetically. Accepted names for taxa are in bold, followed by the author(s), place and date of publication, details of the type(s), including where it is held and assessment of its status. The institution(s) where type specimen(s) are housed are recorded using the international codes for Herbaria (Appendix 1) as listed in Holmgren et al’s Index Herbariorum (1981) continuously updated, see [http://sciweb.nybg.org/science2/IndexHerbariorum.asp]. Citation of authors follows Brummit & Powell (1992) Authors of Plant Names; for book abbreviations, the standard is Taxonomic Literature, 2nd edn. (Stafleu & Cowan 1976-88; supplements, 1992-2000); and periodicals are abbreviated according to B-P- H/S (Bridson, 1992) [http://www.ipni.org/index.html]. Synonyms are provided with relevant information on place of publication and details of the type(s). They are indented and listed in chronological order under the accepted taxon name. Synonyms are also cross-referenced under genus. -

Colourful Spider-Orchid (Caladenia Sp. Aff. Colorata)
Action State ment Flora and Fauna Guarantee Act 1988 No. 245 Colourful Spider-orchid Caladenia sp. aff. colorata (Lower Glenelg River) This revised Action Statement is based on the Recovery Plan prepared for this species by DSE under contract to the Commonwealth Department of the Environment, Water, Heritage and the Arts. Description The Colourful Spider-orchid (Caladenia sp. aff. colorata (Lower Glenelg River) sensu Ross & Walsh (2003)) is an unnamed taxon within the Caladenia patersonii complex, within which there is continuing taxonomic revision. Jeanes and Backhouse (2000) describe C. sp. aff. colorata (Lower Glenelg River) as a terrestrial, deciduous herb which grows to approximately 30 cm tall, with one or two flowers that vary from cream-green with reddish streaks to wholly reddish in colour. The labellum is red with dark red marginal teeth. The tepals are up to 35 mm long and have tapering, filamentous tips. Flowering occurs in September and October. Distribution The Colourful Spider-orchid is endemic to Victoria, where it occurs in the Naracoorte Coastal Plain bioregion (Environment Australia 2000). The historical distribution of this species is unknown, but it is likely to have occurred in similar vegetation in southwest Victoria and southeast South Australia prior to land clearing for agriculture, viticulture and forestry. Distribution in Victoria (Flora Information System DSE 2007) Abundance The Colourful Spider-orchid is known from one wild population containing approximately 150 individuals. behaviour and climatic conditions.

Flowering Times of Tasmanian Orchids: a Practical Guide for Field Botanists
Flowering Times of Tasmanian Orchids: A Practical Guide for Field Botanists 0 Flowering Times of Tasmanian Orchids: A Practical Guide for Field Botanists FOREWORD This document fills a significant gap in the Tasmanian orchid literature. Given the inherent difficulties in locating and surveying orchids in their natural habitat, an accurate guide to their flowering times will be an invaluable tool to field botanists, consultants and orchid enthusiasts alike. Flowering Times of Tasmanian Orchids: A Practical Guide for Field Botanists has been developed by Tasmania’s leading orchid experts, drawing collectively on many decades of field experience. The result is the most comprehensive State reference on orchid flowering available. By virtue of its ease of use, accessibility and identification of accurate windows for locating our often-cryptic orchids, it will actually assist in conservation by enabling land managers and consultants to more easily comply with the survey requirements of a range of land-use planning processes. The use of this guide will enhance efforts to locate new populations and increase our understanding of the distribution of orchid species. The Threatened Species Section commends this guide and strongly recommends its use as a reference whenever surveys for orchids are undertaken.
