Banksia vincentia (Proteaceae), a new species known from fourteen plants from south-eastern New South Wales, Australia MARGARET L. STIMPSON1, JEREMY J. BRUHL1 & PETER H. WESTON2 1 Botany, School of Environmental and Rural Science, University of New England, Armidale NSW 2351 Australia Corresponding Author Email: [email protected] 2 National Herbarium of New South Wales, Royal Botanic Garden Sydney, Mrs Macquaries Road, Sydney, NSW 2000, Australia Abstract Possession of hooked, distinctively discolorous styles, a broadly flabellate common bract subtending each flower pair, and a lignotuber place a putative new species, Banksia sp. Jervis Bay, in the B. spinulosa complex. Phenetic analysis of individuals from all named taxa in the B. spinulosa complex, including B. sp. Jervis Bay, based on leaf, floral, seed and bract characters support recognition of this species, which is described here as Banksia vincentia M.L.Stimpson & P.H.Weston. Known only from fourteen individuals, B. vincentia is distinguished by its semi-prostrate habit, with basally prostrate, distally ascending branches from the lignotuber, and distinctive perianth colouring. Its geographical location and ecological niche also separate it from its most similar congeners. Introduction The Banksia spinulosa complex has a complicated taxonomic history (Table 1). Smith (1793) first described and named B. spinulosa Sm., and subsequent botanists named two close relatives, B. collina R.Br. and B.

  • Preliminary Report on Conospermum (Proteaceae)
    preliminary Report on COnO~pexnI~m(Proteaceae) Ref. Program Resources PO 590383 (Aug 25-Sep 25, 1992) ~ichardW. Spjut, Director & Plant Explorer World Botanical Associates Ground and aerial reconnaissance has been conducted of the coastal areas of Western ~ustraliafrom Perth north to Kalbarri to assess the available biomass of Conospermum stoechadis, C. incurvum, and closely related species; additionally, samples of these species have been obtained for quantitative analysis of conocurvone--an active chemical within the plant species that may have potential for treating AIDS. An estimated 1.1 million kg of root of C. stoechadis is available in the Kalbarri region and more than 2 million kg of root of C. incurvum occurs within 50 square km just north of Eneabba. several other promising areas have been noted from aerial reconnaissance, but the plants have yet to checked by ground survey. The southeastern part of Western Australia has not yet been surveyed where other closely-related species occur, particularly C. distichum, C. floribundum, C. filifolium. ~hirty-three samples of Conospermum spp. have been obtained of C. incurvum, C. stoechadis, and also from variants of C. triplinervium. Planning in Perth The first week was spent obtaining photocopies of locality data on herbarium records from PERTH (herbarium name indicated in Index Herbariorum) and entering these data into a database. species filed alphabetically in the herbarium from A-G were photographed before Neville Marchant, Acting Senior Botanist in charge for Jim Armstrong who has taken on another position under the Executive ~irector(Syd shea), complained about taking proprietary information. Photographing was actually done with permission from other staff at the herbarium; however,.this complaint and recognition of my visit led to further meetings with my partner, Ross smith, Jim Armstrong and our (WBA) attorney to work out a satisfactory agreement between CALM and WBA.

Lizeth Swart Thesis presented in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Agriculture at the University of Stellenbosch Supervisor: Prof. P. W. Crous Decem ber 1999 Stellenbosch University https://scholar.sun.ac.za DECLARATION 1, the undersigned, hereby declare that the work contained in this thesis is my own original work and has not previously in its entirety or in part been submitted at any university for a degree. SIGNATURE: DATE: Stellenbosch University https://scholar.sun.ac.za PATHOGENS ASSOCIATED WITH DISEASES OF PROTEA, LEUCOSPERMUM ANDLEUCADENDRONSPP. SUMMARY The manuscript consists of six chapters that represent research on different diseases and records of new diseases of the Proteaceae world-wide. The fungal descriptions presented in this thesis are not effectively published, and will thus be formally published elsewhere in scientific journals. Chapter one is a review that gives a detailed description of the major fungal pathogens of the genera Protea, Leucospermum and Leucadendron, as reported up to 1996. The pathogens are grouped according to the diseases they cause on roots, leaves, stems and flowers, as well as the canker causing fungi. In chapter two, several new fungi occurring on leaves of Pro tea, Leucospermum, Telopea and Brabejum collected from South Africa, Australia or New Zealand are described. The following fungi are described: Cladophialophora proteae, Coniolhyrium nitidae, Coniothyrium proteae, Coniolhyrium leucospermi,Harknessia leucospermi, Septoria prolearum and Mycosphaerella telopeae spp. nov. Furthermore, two Phylloslicla spp., telopeae and owaniana are also redecribed. The taxonomy of the Eisinoe spp.

  • Nutrient Deficiency Symptoms in Plants (DPI Vic)
    April, 1995 Nutrient deficiency symptoms of AG0257 plants ISSN 1329-8062 David Beardsell, Knoxfield Plants must absorb certain elements to live and grow. Carbon (C), hydrogen (H), and oxygen (O) are the elements supplied from air and water. The growing media generally supplies the remaining nutrients required for plant growth. The major elements or macronutrients required by the plant are nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), potassium (K), calcium (Ca), magnesium (Mg), and sulphur (S). The minor elements, trace elements or micronutrients necessary for healthy plant production are molybdenum (Mo), copper (Cu), zinc (Zn), manganese (Mn), boron (B), iron (Fe), and chlorine (Cl). Deficiencies or imbalances in supply of these essential elements can cause growth reductions, and in more severe cases visual symptoms are expressed in leaves and flowers. Nitrogen deficiency (N) Nitrogen is required by plants in higher concentrations than any of the other elements, except potassium in certain instances. Plants grown without nitrogen grow very slowly. Plants are stunted and show a general yellowing of the foliage. The symptoms of nitrogen deficiency will first occur in the older leaves. The leaves turn from a pale green Figure 1. Symptoms of nitrogen deficiency include stunted plant colour to a yellow and eventually leaf drop occurs. The growth.

Boronia and Allied Genera Study Group Newsletter Contents 1 Responses from Regions concerning growing Boronias 2 Diana’s Bath and ‘That’ Crowea 3 Allied Genera - Asterolasia 4 Purchasing Boronias 1 ISSN1035-7394 Number 2 June 2014 Growing Boronias A couple of responses were received to the survey in the last newsletter. I look forward to receiving further responses from other States and locations. Margaret Lee writes of growing Boronia megastigma on a commercial scale in the Adelaide Hills on the eastern slopes of Mount Lofty. The plants are growing in well drained loam over acid clay on an east facing slope and are sheltered from strong winds by an adjacent plantation of Waratah and surrounding Eucalyptus obliqua. The location reproduces the Mediterranean climate favoured by B. megastigma in its natural environment with winter rainfall of 600mm. Drip irrigation is used to prevent the soil drying out during long dry spells in summer. Drip irrigation is probably critical in plant survival avoiding excessive moisture whilst preventing desiccation as the location experiences maximum temperatures of 40 ˚ C and occasional frosts down to -5 ˚ C. Margaret is planning to grow another western species B. heterophylla which she has observed growing in the foothills south of Adelaide. Jan Sked writes from south east Queensland that her garden is heavily shaded with poorly draining soil and is more suited to rainforest plants. Nevertheless, she has grown B. rismarinifolia and B. keysii in pots. Jan reports that nine species of boronia grow within the Moreton District, bounded by Coolangatta, Noosa and Toowoomba.

  • State-Wide Seed Conservation Strategy for Threatened Species, Threatened Communities and Biodiversity Hotspots
    State-wide seed conservation strategy for threatened species, threatened communities and biodiversity hotspots Project 033146a Final Report South Coast Natural Resource Management Inc. and Australian Government Natural Heritage Trust July 2008 Prepared by Anne Cochrane Threatened Flora Seed Centre Department of Environment and Conservation Western Australian Herbarium Kensington Western Australia 6983 Summary In 2005 the South Coast Natural Resource Management Inc. secured regional competitive component funding from the Australian Government’s Natural Heritage Trust for a three-year project for the Western Australian Department of Environment and Conservation (DEC) to coordinate seed conservation activities for listed threatened species and ecological communities and for Commonwealth identified national biodiversity hotspots in Western Australia (Project 033146). This project implemented an integrated and consistent approach to collecting seeds of threatened and other flora across all regions in Western Australia. The project expanded existing seed conservation activities thereby contributing to Western Australian plant conservation and recovery programs. The primary goal of the project was to increase the level of protection of native flora by obtaining seeds for long term conservation of 300 species. The project was successful and 571 collections were made. The project achieved its goals by using existing skills, data, centralised seed banking facilities and international partnerships that the DEC’s Threatened Flora Seed Centre already had in place. In addition to storage of seeds at the Threatened Flora Seed Centre, 199 duplicate samples were dispatched under a global seed conservation partnership to the Millennium Seed Bank in the UK for further safe-keeping. Herbarium voucher specimens for each collection have been lodged with the State herbarium in Perth, Western Australia.
