  • Approved Conservation Advice for Acacia Constablei (Narrabarba Wattle)
    This Conservation Advice was approved by the Minister on 29 Apr 2014 Approved Conservation Advice for Acacia constablei (Narrabarba Wattle) (s266B of the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999) This Conservation Advice has been developed based on the best available information at the time this Conservation Advice was approved; this includes existing plans, records or management prescriptions for this species. Description Acacia constablei, Family Mimosaceae, also known as the Narrabarba Wattle, is an erect or spreading shrub or small tree with bipinnate leaves comprising 6–15 pairs of pinnae each with 9–30 pairs of pinnules (leaflets) 1.5–2.5 mm long and <1 mm wide (Harden, 2001). The pale yellow to white/cream flower heads are globular and 5–7 mm diameter (Harden, 2001). Individuals are mostly from 1 to 3 m high but can grow to 7 m in sheltered situations (Orchard and Wilson, 2001). Conservation Status Narrabarba Wattle is listed as vulnerable. This species is eligible for listing as vulnerable under the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999 (Cwlth) (EPBC Act) as, prior to the commencement of the EPBC Act, it was listed as vulnerable under Schedule 1 of the Endangered Species Protection Act 1992 (Cwlth). The Narrabarba Wattle is also listed as vulnerable under the Threatened Species Conservation Act 1995 (NSW). Distribution and Habitat Narrabarba Wattle has a geographic range of about 3 km (Briggs and Leigh, 1990) and is restricted to the Narrabarba area, on the far south coast of New South Wales (Tindale, 1980; Briggs and Leigh, 1990; Harden, 1991; Tame, 1992; Orchard and Wilson, 2001; NSW NPWS, 2003).

  • South West Queensland QLD Page 1 of 89 21-Jan-11 Species List for NRM Region South West Queensland, Queensland
    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.

B. poiciloptilus is a large, stocky, thick-necked heron-like bird with camouflage-like plumage growing up to 66-76 cm with a wingspan of 1050-1180 cm and feeds on freshwater crustacean, fish, insects, snakes, leaves and fruit. N. oxleyana is light brown to olive coloured freshwater fish with mottling and three to four patchy, dark brown bars extending from head to tail and a whitish belly growing up to 35-60 mm. This is a mobile species that is often observed individually or in pairs and sometimes in small groups but does not form schools and feed on aquatic insects and their larvae (Allen, 1989; McDowall, 1996). E. leuraensis is an insectivorous, medium-sized lizard growing to approximately 20 cm in length. This species has a relatively dark brown/black body when compared to other Eulamprus spp. Also has narrow yellow/bronze to white stripes along its length to beginning of the tail and continuing along the tail as a series of spots (LeBreton, 1996; Cogger, 2000).

Morton ([email protected]) Academic editor: S. Razafimandimbison | Received 6 August 2014 | Accepted 3 December 2014 | Published 13 January 2015 Citation: Morton CM (2015) Phylogenetic relationships of Zieria (Rutaceae) inferred from chloroplast, nuclear, and morphological data. PhytoKeys 44: 15–38. doi: 10.3897/phytokeys.44.8393 Abstract Zieria Sm. (Rutaceae, Boronieae) is predominantly native to eastern Australia except for one species, which is endemic to New Caledonia. For this study, sequence data of two non-coding chloroplast regions (trnL- trnF, and rpl32-trnL), one nuclear region (ITS region) and various morphological characters, based on Armstrong’s (2002) taxonomic revision of Zieria, from 32 of the 42 described species of Zieria were selected to study the phylogenetic relationships within this genus. Zieria was supported as a monophyletic group in both independent and combined analyses herein (vs. Armstrong). On the basis of Armstrong’s (2002) non- molecular phylogenetic study, six major taxon groups were defined forZieria . The Maximum-parsimony and the Bayesian analyses of the combined morphological and molecular datasets indicate a lack of sup- port for any of these six major taxon groups.
