Descriptions and habitats of the 14 species currently recognised within the Melaleuca leucadendra complex Species Description and habitat M. arcana S.T.Blake Leafy shrub 0.5–15 m high, leaves short wide and almost elliptical. Flowers white in short, dense spikes. Locally common on dune slopes and moist swales between sand dunes on Cape York Peninsula. M. argentea W.Fitzg. Stocky weeping tree, 8–20 m, with papery bark and pale silver-green foliage. Flowers, pale green–yellow to cream, hanging in cylindrical spikes 5–15 cm in length. Typically found in deep sand on river banks adjacent to M. leucadendra. M. cajuputi Powell Dense, erect tree up to 35 m with papery bark and large narrowly elliptical leaves. Favours heavy clay soils of coastal plains, often inundated or tidal. M. clarksonii Barlow Short dense tree up to 10 m, with broad leaves similar to M. cajuputi. Bark hard and fissured M. dealbata S.T.Blake Large erect tree up to 25 m white–grey layered bark and large dull blue–grey foliage. Cream flowers arranged loosely in long spikes. Tolerates a wide range of soils, less often inundated, sometimes in mixed stands with M. cajuputi, or in dune swales. M. ferrugenea CravenA Tree up to 16 m, mature bark white–brown, new bark reddish, soft, papery. Leaves long and slender, white flowers in long spikes. Found in seasonally inundated habitats from coastal dunes to creek-lines and floodplains. M. fluviatilis Barlow Weeping tree up to 30 m, distinguished from M. argentea by crisped leaf hairs and darker green stamens. Habitat similarly confined to riverbanks and swamp margins. M. leucadendra (L.) L. Large erect stately tree 20–30 m, with slippery thinly papery bark. Thin light green leaves and downward hanging branchlets giving a distinctive weeping look. Loose hanging flower spikes cream–white. Prefers flood-prone sites, including the beds of seasonal rivers, river banks and freshwater swamps, sometimes in mixed stands with M. argentea and M. fluviatilis. M. nervosa (Lindl.) Cheel. Shrub or tree up to 15 m, with erect, sparse and untidy crown and layers of papery or fibrous bark. Leaves stiff and narrow, flowers variable through white, cream, yellow, green and occasionally red. Found on sandy soils, often in depressions with underlying clay. Extends into drier habitats and farther inland than other species. M. quinquenervia (Cav.) S.T.Blake Erect but spreading medium-sized tree 10–20 m (with occasional stunted forms 1–1.5 m). Thick grey–white papery bark and stiff, plastic, wide stubby leaves. Flowers white to cream in short dense spikes. Favours swamps or seasonally marshy ground within 40 km of coast, extending farther south than the other species. M. saligna Schauer Slight , pendulous paperbark up to 10 m, with narrower light green leaves and white to greenish-yellow flowers in truncated terminal or pseudo-terminal spikes M. stenostachya S.T.Blake Similar in general appearance to M. dealbata, but typically with narrower leaves, shorter height (2–15 m) and lighter white–cream flowers. Restricted to dry hills with sandy or skeletal soils. M. triumphalis Craven Small untidy shrub up to 2.5 m, fissured to hard papery bark and long shaggy branchlet hairs. Leaves narrow and flowers greenish. Restricted to rocky sandstone gorges of the Victoria River region. M. viridiflora Sol. ex Gaertn. Small untidy tree up to 10 m, with open canopy and large inflexible leaves up to 10 cm in width. Flowers from white– cream to bright green and occasionally red, held stiffly in short dense spikes. Common across large expanses of savanna with broad soil and moisture tolerances. Often occurs in mixed stands with other species, especially M. nervosa. AThis species was described subsequent to data being collected for the present study (Craven and Cowie 2013) and was not included.

  • NORTH-WEST AUSTRALIAN ROCK PAINTINGS by Agnes Susannt Schuls, Frobemus Institute
    Memoirs of the National Museum of Victoria January 1956 https://doi.org/10.24199/j.mmv.1956.20.01 NORTH-WEST AUSTRALIAN ROCK PAINTINGS By Agnes Susannt Schuls, Frobemus Institute. Frank furl. Preface The Frobenius Expedition to North-Western Australia, March-December, 1938, made a survey of a number of the picture caves and rock-shelters of the Kimberley tribes. The World War and post-war conditions have so far prevented publication, so that the account given here is the first to be presented. The extensive paintings found in rock galleries of the Kimberleys form a class of their own among the widely diffused drawings and paintings of .he Australian aborigines. Professor Elkin, who in 1928 investigated some of these galleries, was the first to realize their significance. 1 The very first discovery of representations of the human-shaped but mouthless mythic being Wond'ina was made by Sir George Grey over a century ago.- About 1900 Mr. Fred. Brockman travelled the Kimberleys and took photographs of whatever Wond'ina paintings he came across; they were published by F. M. House/' In the Northern Territory, D. S. Davidson found rock paintings to a certain extent related to the Wond'ina paintings ; in his comprehensive book on Australian aboriginal art he reproduces also some of Brockman's and Elkin's photographs. 4 Grey's much- discussed reproductions can now be compared with the recovered originals. 5 Mr. Coate's researches have widened and deepened what had already been established in substance by Professor Elkin. A different type of representations of human figures occurs in Central and Northern Kimberley.

A total of 37 fish species were recorded in the 70 sites sampled. Twenty-three of these species are freshwater fishes (i.e. they complete their life-cycle in freshwater), the remainder being of estuarine or marine origin that may spend part of their life-cycle in freshwater. The number of freshwater species in the Fitzroy River is high by Australian standards. Three of the freshwater fish species recorded ar'e currently undescribed, and two have no formal common or scientific names, but do have Aboriginal names. Where possible, the English (common), scientific and Aboriginal names for the different speCIes of the river are given. This includes the Aboriginal names of the fish for the following five languages (Bunuba, Gooniyandi, Ngarinyin, Nyikina and Walmajarri) of the Fitzroy River Valley.
