  • Grass Genera in Townsville
    Grass Genera in Townsville Nanette B. Hooker Photographs by Chris Gardiner SCHOOL OF MARINE and TROPICAL BIOLOGY JAMES COOK UNIVERSITY TOWNSVILLE QUEENSLAND James Cook University 2012 GRASSES OF THE TOWNSVILLE AREA Welcome to the grasses of the Townsville area. The genera covered in this treatment are those found in the lowland areas around Townsville as far north as Bluewater, south to Alligator Creek and west to the base of Hervey’s Range. Most of these genera will also be found in neighbouring areas although some genera not included may occur in specific habitats. The aim of this book is to provide a description of the grass genera as well as a list of species. The grasses belong to a very widespread and large family called the Poaceae. The original family name Gramineae is used in some publications, in Australia the preferred family name is Poaceae. It is one of the largest flowering plant families of the world, comprising more than 700 genera, and more than 10,000 species. In Australia there are over 1300 species including non-native grasses. In the Townsville area there are more than 220 grass species. The grasses have highly modified flowers arranged in a variety of ways. Because they are highly modified and specialized, there are also many new terms used to describe the various features. Hence there is a lot of terminology that chiefly applies to grasses, but some terms are used also in the sedge family. The basic unit of the grass inflorescence (The flowering part) is the spikelet. The spikelet consists of 1-2 basal glumes (bracts at the base) that subtend 1-many florets or flowers.

  • Jervis Bay Territory Page 1 of 50 21-Jan-11 Species List for NRM Region (Blank), Jervis Bay Territory
    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.

The calendar says the end of September, but it is blowing and snowing outside so it doesn’t feel quite like spring yet (or then again, maybe we should expect this in Hobart in Septem- ber!) Roll on warm sunny days and spring flowers! News from the Nursery This is the main propagation time in the nursery. In July, we start doing hundreds of punnets of cuttings, with the plant material largely coming from stock plants within the nursery. The cuttings then sit in a greenhouse for a few weeks or longer developing roots before being potted up into 75 round tubes and shifted out into a shade house to harden off. They are then moved out into our open storage area, and then finally into sales. In September we start on growing plants from seed. We either collect the seed ourselves from plants in the nursery or in the bush, or use a commercial seed collecting agency. After the seeds germinate the new plants are pricked out into square tubes, and then go through the same hardening off process as the cutting grown material. We are slowly making a few changes around the nursery – nothing major, but we’re developing new areas to make finding plants easier.

Membres du jury Professeur Bill Shipley Directeur de recherche Professeur Vincent Maire Évaluateur externe Université de Québec à Trois-Rivières Professeur Mark Vellend Évaluateur interne Professeur Dominique Gravel Président-rapporteur SOMMAIRE L’assemblage des espèces (leurs présences/absence) dans une communauté naturelle est la conséquence de plusieurs mécanismes de filtrage réalisés par l'environnement. Parmi ces filtres, le filtre abiotique sélectionne les espèces capables de tolérer les conditions environnementales locales. La variation de la disponibilité de l'eau dans le sol est l'un des principaux gradients environnementaux selon lesquels les espèces végétales sont différemment réparties. Considérant l’hypothèse que les traits fonctionnels et leurs relations sont hiérarchisées, les préférences d’habitat des espèces le long de gradients environnementaux devraient être déterminées par une combinaison de traits physiologiques et morpho-anatomiques hiérarchisés. Au cours de ce doctorat, mon objectif général est d'identifier les traits fonctionnels morphologiques,

  • Ecology, Habitat and Growth
    Technical Article No. 7.1 - ecology, habitat and growth INTRODUCTION Spinifex (Spinifex sericeus R.Br.) is the major Spinifex often occurs with other indigenous sand indigenous sand dune grass that occurs on binding species on the foredune including pingao foredunes throughout most of the North Island (Ficinia spiralis), nihinihi (sand convolvulus, and the upper part of the South Island. Sometimes Calystegia soldanella), and hinarepe (sand referred to as silvery sand grass, or kowhangatara, tussock, Poa billardierei). it is the dominant sand binding plant on the seaward face of the foredune where its long trailing runners and vigorous growth make it an ideal sand dune stabiliser. In many North Island dunes, spinifex forms a near continuous colony for long stretches of sandy coastline. Technical Handbook Section 7: Native vegetation on foredunes Technical habitat and growth 7.1 Spinifex - ecoloogy, Article No. 7.1 - Spinifex - ecology, habitat and growth PLANT DESCRIPTION Spinifex is a stout perennial grass with strong on both surfaces (McDonald, 1983). At intervals of creeping runners or stolons. Leaves are usually 10-15 cm, new nodes are formed from which roots 5-10 mm wide and up to 38 cm long (Craig, 1984). emerge, take root and eventually a discrete plant The stolons can be up to 20 m long with internodes will form where there is sufficient space that is up to 38 cm long. Each node produces adventitious independent of the original stolon (Hesp, 1982). roots and upright, silvery green leaves that are hairy Vigorous spinifex on a foredune showing the upright silvery green leaves and long creeping runners or stolons that spread rapidly to occupy bare sand.

  • Flora of Stockton/Port Hunter Sandy Foreshores
    Flora of the Stockton and Port Hunter sandy foreshores with comments on fifteen notable introduced species. Petrus C. Heyligers CSIRO Sustainable Ecosystems, Queensland Biosciences Precinct, 306 Carmody Road, St. Lucia, Queensland 4067, AUSTRALIA. [email protected] Abstract: Between 1993 and 2005 I investigated the introduced plant species on the Newcastle foreshores at Stockton and Macquaries Pier (lat 32º 56’ S, long 151º 47’ E). At North Stockton in a rehabilitated area, cleared of *Chrysanthemoides monilifera subsp. rotundata, and planted with *Ammophila arenaria interspersed with native shrubs, mainly Acacia longifolia subsp. sophorae and Leptospermum laevigatum, is a rich lora of introduced species of which *Panicum racemosum and *Cyperus conglomeratus have gradually become dominant in the groundcover. Notwithstanding continuing maintenance, *Chrysanthemoides monilifera subsp. rotundata has re-established among the native shrubs, and together with Acacia longifolia subsp. sophorae, is important in sand stabilisation along the seaward edge of the dune terrace. The foredune of Little Park Beach, just inside the Northern Breakwater, is dominated by Spinifex sericeus and backed by Acacia longifolia subsp. sophorae-*Chrysanthemoides monilifera subsp. rotundata shrubbery. In places the shrubbery has given way to introduced species such as *Oenothera drummondii, *Tetragonia decumbens and especially *Heterotheca grandilora. At Macquaries Pier *Chrysanthemoides monilifera subsp. rotundata forms an almost continuous fringe between the rocks that protect the pier against heavy southerlies. However, its presence on adjacent Nobbys Beach is localised and the general aspect of this beach is no different from any other along the coast as it is dominated by Spinifex sericeus. Many foreign plant species occur around the sandy foreshores at Port Hunter.
