  • History and Management of Culham Inlet, a Coastal Salt Lake in South-Western Australia
    JournalJournal of ofthe the Royal Royal Society Society of Westernof Western Australia, Australia, 80(4), 80:239-247, December 1997 1997 History and management of Culham Inlet, a coastal salt lake in south-western Australia E P Hodgkin 86 Adelma Road, Dalkeith, WA 6009 email: [email protected] Manuscript received August 1996; accepted May 1997. Abstract When Culham Inlet was first flooded by the Holocene rise in sea level it was an estuary, but in historic times it has been a salt lake closed by a high sea bar. It is in an area of low rainfall and episodic river flow and sometimes all water is lost by evaporation to below sea level. With above average rainfall in 1989 and 1992, high water levels in the Inlet flooded farm paddocks and threatened to break the bar and a road along it from Hopetoun to the Fitzgerald River National Park. In 1993 the bar was breached to release flood water, and the Inlet was briefly an estuary. Engineering measures designed to restore road access and prevent flooding are examined for their potential to restore the Inlet to its pre-1993 condition of a productive ecosystem. Recent clearing in the catchments of Culham Inlet and nearby estuaries in the south coast low rainfall area has increased river flow to them and appears to have caused their bars to break more frequently. Introduction (Fig 2) that is only known to have broken naturally once, In historic times Culham Inlet has been a coastal in 1849. The bar was broken artificially in 1920, but for lagoon on a semi-arid part of the south coast of Western over 70 years since then the Inlet has absorbed river flow Australia (Fig 1), separated from the sea by a high bar without the bar breaking, until 1993.

  • The Genus Egernia (Lacertilia, Scincidae) in Western Australia
    Rec. West. Aust. Mus., 1978,6 (2) THE GENUS EGERNIA (LACERTILIA, SCINCIDAE) IN WESTERN AUSTRALIA G.M. STORR* [Received 27 October 1976. Accepted 5 May 1977. Published 30 June 1978.] ABSTRACT The 17 species and subspecies of Egernia occurring in Western Australia are described and keyed, viz. E. depressa (Giinther), E. stokesii stokesii (Gray), E. stokesii aethiops nov., E. stokesii badia nov., E. kingii (Gray) [syn. E. nitida (Gray)], E. napoleonis (Gray) [E. nitida of authors, not Gray], E. carinata H.M. Smith, E. formosa Fry, E. douglasi Glauert, E. luctuosa (Peters) [syn. E. lauta DeVis], E. pilbarensis nov., E. pulchrapulchra Werner, E. pulchra longicauda Ford, E. multiscutata bos Storr, E. inornata Rosen, E. striata Sternfeld, E. kintorei Stirling & Zietz. A lectotype is designated for Tropidolopisma dumerilii Dumeril & Bibron [= E. kingii]. The Victorian representative of E. luctuosa is described as a new species, E. coventryi. INTRODUCTION This paper brings up to date an earlier revision of the Egernia whitii group (Storr, 1968) and deals for the first time since Mitchell (1950) with the other western members of the genus. It is based on specimens in the Western Australian Museum (registered numbers cited without prefix). I have also used some specimens in the National Museum of Victoria (numbers prefixed with NMV), Australian Museum (AM), Queensland Museum (QM), collec­ tion of the British Joint Services Expedition to Central Australia (JSE), and British Museum (Natural History), for the loan of which I am indebted to Mr A.J.

  • South Coast Region Regional Management Plan
    SOUTH COAST REGION REGIONAL MANAGEMENT PLAN 1992 - 2002 MANAGEMENT PLAN NO. 24 Department of Conservation and Land Management for the National Parks and Nature Conservation Authority and the Lands and Forest Commission Western Australia PREFACE Regional management plans are prepared by the Department of Conservation and Land Management on behalf of the Lands and Forest Commission and the National Parks and Nature Conservation Authority. These two bodies submit the plans for final approval and modification, if required, by the Minister for the Environment. Regional plans are to be prepared for each of the 10 regions administered by the Department of Conservation and Land Management (CALM). This plan for the South Coast Region covers all lands and waters in the Region vested under the CALM Act, together with wildlife responsibilities included in the Wildlife Conservation Act. In addition to the Regional Plan, more detailed management plans will be prepared for certain critical management issues, (the most serious of which is the spread of dieback disease in the Region); particular high value or high conflict areas, (such as some national parks); or for certain exploited or endangered species, (such as kangaroos and the Noisy Scrub-bird). These plans will provide more detailed information and guidance for management staff. The time frame for this Regional Plan is ten years, although review and restatement of some policies may be necessary during this period. Implementation will take place progressively over this period and there will be continuing opportunity for public comment. This management plan was submitted by the Department of Conservation and Land Management and adopted by the Lands and Forest Commission on 12 June 1991 and the National Parks and Nature Conservation Authority on 19 July 1991 and approved by the Minister for the Environment on 23 December 1991.

  • (Centrolepidaceae) in Australia
    J. Adelaide Bot. Gard. 15(1): 1-63 (1992) A TAXONOMIC REVISION OF CENTROLEPIS (CENTROLEPIDACEAE) IN AUSTRALIA D. A. Cooke Animal and Plant Control Commission of South Australia GPO Box 1671, Adelaide, South Australia 5001 Abstract Centrdepis in Australia is revised and twenty species are recognised. This revision is based on morphological features that are discussed in relation to the biology of the genus. One new species, C. curta, and a new subspecies, C. strigosa subsp. rupestris, are described and illustrated. The new combinations C. monogyna subsp. paludicola and C. strigosa subsp. pulvinata are made. Introduction Centrolepis is a genus of small annual and perennial monocots. It forms, with Aphelia and Gaimardia, the minor family Centrolepidaceae. The family has its main centre of diversity in Australia with 29 species; a few occur in New Zealand, south-eastern Asia and South America. The close affinity of the Centrolepidaceae to the Restionaceae, and its remoteness from the two genera segregated by Hamann (1976) as the Hydatellaceae, are widely recognised in contemporary systems of classification (Cronquist, 1981; Dahlgren & Clifford, 1982; Takhtajan, 1980). Taxonomic history The genus first became known from material of the near-coastal species sent to Europe by the early botanist-explorers and collectors. In 1770 Banks and Solander on the Endeavour collected specimens of Centrolepis, now referred to C. banksii and C. exserta, that they tentatively labelled as species of Schoenus (Cyperaceae). Labillardière (1804) based the new genus Centrolepis, which he placed under Monandria Monogynia in the Linnaean system, on a Tasmanian specimen. Robert Brown (1810), using Banks' and Solander's material and his own collections from the voyage of the Investigator around Australia in 1801-4, drafted manuscript epithets for a further twelve Centrolepis species.

    FITZGERALD BIOSPHERE RECOVERY PLAN A landscape approach to threatened species and ecological communities for recovery and biodiversity conservation South Coast Region Department of Environment and Conservation This Fitzgerald Biosphere Recovery Plan has been prepared by Janet Newell, Sarah Comer and Deon Utber for the Western Australian Department of Environment and Conservation. This Plan should be cited as follows: Department of Environment and Conservation, (2012). Fitzgerald Biosphere Recovery Plan: A Landscape Approach to Threatened Species and Ecological Communities Recovery and Biodiversity Conservation, Western Australian Department of Environment and Conservation, Albany. Cover photos: top left – Eucalyptus nutans (Sarah Barrett) top middle – Western Ground Parrot (Brent Barrett) top right – Eucalyptus burdettiana (Sarah Barrett) bottom – Fitzgerald River National Park (Sarah Comer) Department of Environment and Conservation South Coast Region 120 Albany Highway Albany WA 6330. FORWARD This Fitzgerald Biosphere Recovery Plan constitutes the formal national regional recovery plan for 11 flora species and provides recovery guidance for the remaining species and ecological communities largely endemic to the Fitzgerald Biosphere on the south coast of Western Australia that are listed under the Commonwealth Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999 (EPBC Act). The Fitzgerald River National Park (FRNP) was designated a Biosphere Reserve under the UNESCO Man and the Biosphere (MAB) Programme in 1978, and is recognised for its relatively pristine state and high biological diversity, especially its flora. For the purpose of this plan, the term ‘Fitzgerald Biosphere’ or ‘Biosphere’ refers to the combination of the core Biosphere area as recognised by MAB and the buffer and transition zones as defined by catchment boundaries as shown in figure 1.
