Adelaide Bot. Gard. 1(2): 127-130 (1977) A NATURALLY OCCURRING PUTATIVE INTERSPECIFIC HYBRID IN EREMOPHILA (MYOPORACEAE) R. J. Chinnock State Herbarium, Botanic Gardens, North Terrace, Adelaide, South Australia 5000 and P. Hudson 13 James Street, Whyalla Norrie, South Australia 5608 Abstract A naturally occurring putative hybrid betweenEremophila oppositifoliaR.Br. andE. scoparia (R.Br.) F.Muell. was found at Whyalla, South Australia. The hybrid is morphologically intermediate in most characters between the two species and has a much increased pollen sterility. Illustrations, and a tabulated comparison, of the more important vegetative, floral and fruit features are provided for the hybrid and its parents. Introduction In June 1976, when assisting in the erection of a fence to enclose the newly established fauna park just west of Whyalla, one of the authors (P. H.) noted an Eremophila close to the western fenceline. The solitary plant was growing in association with Eremophila scoparia ( R. Br.) F. Muell. and E. oppositifolia R.Br. var. oppositifolia in an open Acacia sowdenii woodland on red sandy clay loam. Other common shrubs included A triplex vesicaria Hew. ex Benth.

  • Flowers, Posts and Plates of Dirk Hartog Island
    Flowers, Posts and Plates of Dirk Hartog Island Lesley Brooker FLOWERS POSTS AND PLATES January 2020 Home Flowers, Posts and Plates of Dirk Hartog Island Lesley Brooker For the latest revision go to https://lesmikebrooker.com.au/Dirk-Hartog-Island.php Please direct feedback to Lesley Brooker at [email protected] Home INTRODUCTION This document is in two parts:- Part 1 — FLOWERS is an interactive reference to some of the flora of Dirk Hartog Island. Plants are arranged alphabetically within families. Hyperlinks are provided for quick access to historical material found on-line. Attention is drawn (in the green boxes below the species accounts) to some features which may help identification or may interest the reader, but these are by no means diagnostic. Where technical terms are used, these are explained in parenthesis. The ultimate on-line authority on the Western Australian flora is FloraBase. It provides the most up-to-date nomenclature, details of subspecies, flowering periods and distribution maps. Please use this guide in conjunction with FloraBase. Part 2 — POSTS AND PLATES provides short historical accounts of some the people involved in erecting and removing posts and plates on Dirk Hartog Island between 1616 and 1907, and those who may have collected plants on the island during their visit. Home FLOWERS PHOTOGRAPHS REFERENCES BIRD LIST Home Flower Photos The plants are presented in alphabetical order within plant families - this is so that plants that are closely related to one another will be grouped together on nearby pages. All of the family names and genus names are given at the top of each page and are also listed in an index.
