Plants of the West Coast family: ProteaCeae Dryandra sessilis PARROT BUSH var. cygnorum (Gand.) A.S.George Flowering period: June–September. Description: Fire-sensitive (non-lignotuberous), tall shrub to small tree, 0.5–3 m high with erect, reddish stems when young and rigid, spiny leaves up to 10 cm long. Flowers in dense terminal heads on side branches, yellow. Seeds in beak- like capsules that split longitudinally to release two winged black seeds. Pollination: Open pollinated by a wide variety of insects and nectar-seeking birds. Distribution: Widespread from Geraldton to Mandurah often locally common in limestone areas and in protected dune swales where the species can form dense, almost impenetrable thickets. Propagation: Grown easily from seed sown in a free-draining seedling mix. Sow de-winged seeds direct into tubes to be used in restoration programs, burying individual seeds only as deep as the seed. Habit Uses in restoration: A species that provides a broad range of ecological services associated with the production over a long period of nectar-rich blossoms. However, it is also well known for its ability to become locally weedy if planted too densely or the site suffers repeated soil disturbance. Prefers protected areas usually in swales or in secondary stable dunes. Watchpoint: do not use prunings of this species as stabilising material since seeds released from the cut stems can germinate large numbers of seedlings. Flowers Notes: May be used as a bird-attracting species in the home garden where the plant is readily grown from seed directly planted to site. The prickly leaves may be troublesome around young children. Also known as Banksia sessilis (see nomenclatural note under Dryandra lindleyana). Flowers Distribution 120 121.

Banksia Vincentia (Proteaceae), a New Species Known from Fourteen Plants from South-Eastern New South Wales, Australia

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.

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.

This IRP results from a review of, and replaces, IRP No. 78 Adenanthos pungens subsp. effusus (Evans, Stack, Loudon, Graham and Brown 2000). This Interim Recovery Plan will operate from May 2006 to April 2011 but will remain in force until withdrawn or replaced.

Foliar Nutrient-Allocation Patterns in Banksia Attenuata and Banksia
Foliar nutrient-allocation patterns in Banksia attenuata and Banksia sessilis differing in growth rate and adaptation to low-phosphorus habitats Zhongming Han1, Jianmin Shi2, Jiayin Pang3, Li Yan4, Patrick Finnegan4, and Hans Lambers3 1Jilin Agricultural University 2Jiangxi Agricultural University 3The University of Western Australia 4University of Western Australia June 24, 2020 Abstract We compared the use of phosphorus (P) and nitrogen (N) in slow-growing Banksia attenuata (Proteaceae), which resprouts after fire and naturally occurs on deep sand, with faster-growing opportunistic B. sessilis, which is killed by fire and occurs on shallow sand over laterite or limestone. We carried out pot experiments with plants on substrates with different P availability. We measured foliar nutrient concentrations, and P allocated to major biochemical fractions. The two species had similar foliar total P concentrations, but distinct patterns of P allocation to P-containing fractions. The foliar total N concentration of B. sessilis was greater than that of B. attenuata on all substrates. The foliar total P and N concentrations in both species decreased with decreasing P availability. The relative growth rate of both species was positively correlated with both foliar nucleic acid P and total N concentrations, but there was no correlation with other P and N fractions. Faster-growing B. sessilis allocated more P to nucleic acids than B. attenuata did, but other fractions were similar. We conclude that the nutrient-allocation patterns in faster-growing opportunistic B. sessilis and slower-growing B. attenuata revealed different strategies in response to soil P availability, which matched their contrasting growth strategy. INTRODUCTION Understanding strategies of nutrient allocation and their underlying mechanisms in plants adapted to phos- phorus (P)-impoverished soils is an important topic in plant physiological ecology (Lambers et al.
