Box 563, Bairnsdale , Vic 3875 The Clematis Page 4 OMEO CAMP - 2-5 December 2016 By Margaret Regan Most of the Field Nats stayed in the Omeo Caravan Park, situated on the banks of Livingstone Creek. The area must have been settled dec- ades ago, as there are many enormous trees. Some of these were Cottonwood or Necklace Poplar (Populus deltoides). Our attention was drawn to these trees in particular by the snowy carpet beneath them. The Cottonwood is a North American hardwood tree which can grow to 40m. The trees are single-sex with the flowers in catkins produced in early spring. After pollination, the female catkins produce small seeds attached to white cotton-like strands. These were what were carpeting the ground. Friday After lunch at the camp we headed up to the famous Knocker Track, reached from the Omeo Valley Road, after crossing the Mitta Mitta Riv- er. We stopped at the track’s junction with Burnside Track. The strangely-named Knocker Track derived its origin from the early days when it was the main road north of Omeo, and coaches with horses were the means of transport. Because of the steepness of the road, the hors- es would get “knocked up”. It is also believed that travelling back down the slope, the driver would throw out an attached log, which would act like a “sea anchor”. Much of this area was burnt in the extensive 2003 alpine fires. Now the vegetation has recovered and many plants were flowering. Some of the overhead trees were Broad-leaved Peppermint (Eucalyptus dives) with rough peppermint-type bark and scent- ed leaves; and Candlebark (E. rubida), a gum whose bark is reddish brown for much of the year, shedding to expose white new bark. Orchids were Slender Onion-orchid (Microtis parviflora) with up to 80 tiny green flowers; scented brownish Highland Leek-orchid (Prasophyllum sp.aff. odoratum 11) which has up to 40 upside-down flowers, each with a long white frilled labellum; blue Spotted Sun-orchid (Thelymitra ixioides) whose dorsal sepal and petals have darker blue spots; and Cinnamon Bells (Gastrodia sesamoides) whose flowers are brown with white insides and a three-lobed mobile yellow labellum. There were even more, with yellow and brown Tiger Orchid (Diuris sulphurea); pos- sibly Mountain Golden Moths (D. monticola); white Musky Caladenia (Caladenia moschata) which has several musk-scented white flowers and a labellum with marginal teeth ; and two spider-orchids Clubbed or Plain-lip Spider-orchid (C. clavigera) whose broad burgundy labellum has yellow-green edges; and tiny Brown-clubbed Green-comb or Small Green-comb Spider-orchid (C. parva) whose white labellum has green lateral lobes and a burgundy apex. We searched along a dryish creek area and found the enormous green and white striped Sickle Greenhood (Pterostylis falcata), one of the largest greenhoods, with a hood to 40mm; but not its hybrid with Leafy Greenhood (P. cucullata) - Enigmatic Greenhood (P. x aenigma) which has only been found along 100m of this sub-alpine creek at Hinnomunjie. We found neither Leafy Greenhood nor Enigmatic Green- hood. This site was devastated by storms after the 2003 fires, and sand and silt was washed into the area, which was then invaded by weeds. The rare hybrid was not seen on previous excursions in 2007 and 2012. An interesting banksia here was Mountain Banksia (Banksia canei) which only grows to 2.5m and is found on rocky sites above 900m in sub- alpine areas. The specific name honours a Victorian nurseryman, Bill Cane, who first recognized that it might be a new species.

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.

Mycosphere 10(1), 310–489, Doi 10.5943/mycosphere/10/1/7 Abstract Leotiomycetes is regarded as the inoperculate class of discomycetes within the phylum Ascomycota. Taxa are mainly characterized by asci with a simple pore blueing in Melzer’s reagent, although some taxa have lost this character. The monophyly of this class has been verified in several recent molecular studies. However, circumscription of the orders, families and generic level delimitation are still unsettled. This paper provides a modified backbone tree for the class Leotiomycetes based on phylogenetic analysis of combined ITS, LSU, SSU, TEF, and RPB2 loci. In the phylogenetic analysis, Leotiomycetes separates into 19 clades, which can be recognized as orders and order-level clades.

  • Rare Or Threatened Vascular Plant Species of Wollemi National Park, Central Eastern New South Wales
    Rare or threatened vascular plant species of Wollemi National Park, central eastern New South Wales. Stephen A.J. Bell Eastcoast Flora Survey PO Box 216 Kotara Fair, NSW 2289, AUSTRALIA Abstract: Wollemi National Park (c. 32o 20’– 33o 30’S, 150o– 151oE), approximately 100 km north-west of Sydney, conserves over 500 000 ha of the Triassic sandstone environments of the Central Coast and Tablelands of New South Wales, and occupies approximately 25% of the Sydney Basin biogeographical region. 94 taxa of conservation signiicance have been recorded and Wollemi is recognised as an important reservoir of rare and uncommon plant taxa, conserving more than 20% of all listed threatened species for the Central Coast, Central Tablelands and Central Western Slopes botanical divisions. For a land area occupying only 0.05% of these divisions, Wollemi is of paramount importance in regional conservation. Surveys within Wollemi National Park over the last decade have recorded several new populations of signiicant vascular plant species, including some sizeable range extensions. This paper summarises the current status of all rare or threatened taxa, describes habitat and associated species for many of these and proposes IUCN (2001) codes for all, as well as suggesting revisions to current conservation risk codes for some species. For Wollemi National Park 37 species are currently listed as Endangered (15 species) or Vulnerable (22 species) under the New South Wales Threatened Species Conservation Act 1995. An additional 50 species are currently listed as nationally rare under the Briggs and Leigh (1996) classiication, or have been suggested as such by various workers. Seven species are awaiting further taxonomic investigation, including Eucalyptus sp.

  • Phylogeny, Character Evolution and the Systematics of Psilochilus (Triphoreae)
    THE PRIMITIVE EPIDENDROIDEAE (ORCHIDACEAE): PHYLOGENY, CHARACTER EVOLUTION AND THE SYSTEMATICS OF PSILOCHILUS (TRIPHOREAE) A Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for The Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of the Ohio State University By Erik Paul Rothacker, M.Sc. ***** The Ohio State University 2007 Doctoral Dissertation Committee: Approved by Dr. John V. Freudenstein, Adviser Dr. John Wenzel ________________________________ Dr. Andrea Wolfe Adviser Evolution, Ecology and Organismal Biology Graduate Program COPYRIGHT ERIK PAUL ROTHACKER 2007 ABSTRACT Considering the significance of the basal Epidendroideae in understanding patterns of morphological evolution within the subfamily, it is surprising that no fully resolved hypothesis of historical relationships has been presented for these orchids. This is the first study to improve both taxon and character sampling. The phylogenetic study of the basal Epidendroideae consisted of two components, molecular and morphological. A molecular phylogeny using three loci representing each of the plant genomes including gap characters is presented for the basal Epidendroideae. Here we find Neottieae sister to Palmorchis at the base of the Epidendroideae, followed by Triphoreae. Tropidieae and Sobralieae form a clade, however the relationship between these, Nervilieae and the advanced Epidendroids has not been resolved. A morphological matrix of 40 taxa and 30 characters was constructed and a phylogenetic analysis was performed. The results support many of the traditional views of tribal composition, but do not fully resolve relationships among many of the tribes. A robust hypothesis of relationships is presented based on the results of a total evidence analysis using three molecular loci, gap characters and morphology. Palmorchis is placed at the base of the tree, sister to Neottieae, followed successively by Triphoreae sister to Epipogium, then Sobralieae.
