The Vegetation of the Western Blue OTHER MAP FEATURES MAP UNIT 49 ROCK OUTCROP Exposed rock includes rock outcrops, rock plates, cliff lines, landslips and riverbeds. MAP UNIT 59 NON NATIVE VEGETATION PLANTATION The study area includes significant areas of Pinus radiata plantations in State Forests such as Gurnang, Newnes and Lidsdale. MAP UNIT 60 NON NATIVE VEGETATION OTHER EXOTICS Smaller areas of exotic species have been mapped. These include Willows (Salix spp.), Blackberry, Poplars etc. MAP UNIT 61 UNCLASSIFIED VEGETATION Small patches of native vegetation less than one hectare in size remain unclassified. These small and isolated stands were originally outside of the mapping threshold but have been included for completeness. Site based investigations will clarify the appropriate map unit allocation. MAP UNIT 62 CLEARED AND SEVERELY DISTURBED Removal of native vegetation cover has occurred mainly over the higher fertility soil classifications and those of lower slope or more suitable land classes throughout the majority of the study area. Agricultural activities and softwood plantation forestry past and present account for the bulk of this disturbance however dwellings are also common in the townships of Glen Davis, Glen Alice, Wallerawang – Lidsdale, Lithgow and in a very limited area at Jenolan Caves. The feature code tables in Appendix B and C can be used to identify the nature of cleared or modified lands. These include features such as pastures and paddocks, transmission lines, roads, former cleared areas, residential areas etc. Severely disturbed lands are patches of native vegetation that retain less than three percent canopy cover. These are widely spaced isolated paddock trees. MAP UNIT 63 OTHER MAPPING Other Mapping refers to similarly scaled vegetation mapping available over the Gardens of Stone National Park. 176 The Vegetation of the Western Blue Mountains SPECIES INDEX The following species list is taken from only the descriptions and species listed is the text of the community profiles.

  • A Preliminary Survey of Foliar Sclerenchyma in Neotropical Loranthaceae
    BLUMEA 50: 323–355 Published on 14 July 2005 http://dx.doi.org/10.3767/000651905X623012 A PRELIMINARY SURVEY OF FOLIAR SCLERENCHYMA IN NEOTROPICAL LORANTHACEAE J. KUIJT & D. LYE Department of Biology, University of Victoria, Victoria, BC V8W 3N5, Canada SUMMARY The foliar sclerenchyma of all genera of neotropical Loranthaceae is surveyed by means of cleared leaves, using selected species. Three general categories of sclerenchyma are recognized. Fibers may form discontinuous or continuous bundles associated with veins or, more rarely, occur as individual cells. Sclereids, often of the astrosclereid type, are present in varying concentrations, or may be absent. Cristarque cells are very common, and occasionally extremely abundant, but are lacking in several genera. The survey includes information on terminal tracheids which are almost invariably present. Attention is drawn to the systematic significance of sclerenchyma where warranted. Key words: Neotropical Loranthaceae, cristarque cells, fibers, sclereids, terminal tracheids. INTRODUCTION The Loranthaceae of the New World form an assemblage distinct from those of the Old World, none of the genera of either region occurring in both. In fact, even the re- lationships of genera from one hemisphere to the other have remained enigmatic. The solitary exception to this pattern is the trio of monotypic, undoubtedly primitive genera Atkinsonia, Nuytsia, and Gaiadendron, the first two of which are narrow endemics in eastern and western Australia, respectively, while the last genus ranges from Bolivia mostly through the Andes north to Costa Rica and Nicaragua. Within the neotropical assemblage of genera, relationships are frequently also uncer- tain. There is general agreement on some generic affinities: for example, Dendropemon and Phthirusa, and Aetanthus and Psittacanthus, form two such closely related pairs of genera.

  • 1965) 278-307 Haustorium, (Loranthaceae
    Acta Botanica Neerlandica 14 (1965) 278-307 On the Nature and Action of the Santalalean Haustorium, as exemplified by Phthirusa and Antidaphne (Loranthaceae) Job Kuijt {Department of Botany, University of British Columbia, Vancouver, Canada) (received June 30th, 1965) Abstract The original intent ofthe present study was an inquiry into the architecture of the secondary haustoria of the mistletoes Antidaphne viscoidea and Phthirusa pyrifolia, each representing one of the two subfamilies ofLoranthaceae. In the course of this study it fundamental has become clear that there are similarities uniting the haustoria of the entire order, Santalales. The needfor integration of all knowledge of Santalalean haustoria became the work and more pressing as proceeded has culminatedin this article form. in its present This work, then, represents an integrated review of the structure mechanism of Santalalean and haustoria, introduced by anaccount of the haustoria of Phthirusa and Antidaphne. Phthirusa and Antidaphne the The mistletoe haustorium of temperate zones is a direct out- growth of the radicular apex of the seedling. Even such complex those of absorptive systems as Arceuthobium, Phrygilanthus aphyllus, and some species of Phoradendron can be traced back to their origin from the apical meristem of the primary root. In a large numberof tropical and some subtropical Loranthaceae, however, secondary roots are formed from the base of the plant or from branches. Such roots are known as the the epicortical roots, and follow branches of host, producing secon- dary haustoria at irregular intervals. Secondary haustoria, partly their limited have received little through geographic occurrence, attention from anatomists.

It completes the NSWVCA coverage for the Border Rivers-Gwydir and Namoi CMA areas and records plant communities in the Central West and Hunter–Central Rivers CMA areas. In total, 585 plant communities are now classified in the NSWVCA covering 11.5 of the 18 Bioregions in NSW (78% of the State). Of these 226 communities are in the NSW Western Plains and 416 are in the NSW Western Slopes. 315 plant communities are classified in the BBS, NAN and west-NET Bioregions including 267 new descriptions since Version 2 was published in 2008. Descriptions of the 315 communities are provided in a 919 page report on the DVD accompanying this paper along with updated reports on other inland NSW bioregions and nine Catchment Management Authority areas fully or partly classified in the NSWVCA to date.

  • Eocene Loranthaceae Pollen Pushes Back Divergence Ages for Major Splits in the Family
    Eocene Loranthaceae pollen pushes back divergence ages for major splits in the family Friðgeir Grı´msson1,*, Paschalia Kapli2, Christa-Charlotte Hofmann1, Reinhard Zetter1 and Guido W. Grimm1,3,* 1 Department of Palaeontology, University of Vienna, Wien, Austria 2 The Exelixis Lab, Scientific Computing Group, Heidelberg Institute for Theoretical Studies, Heidelberg, Germany 3 Orle´ans, France * These authors contributed equally to this work. ABSTRACT Background: We revisit the palaeopalynological record of Loranthaceae, using pollen ornamentation to discriminate lineages and to test molecular dating estimates for the diversification of major lineages. Methods: Fossil Loranthaceae pollen from the Eocene and Oligocene are analysed and documented using scanning-electron microscopy. These fossils were associated with molecular-defined clades and used as minimum age constraints for Bayesian node dating using different topological scenarios. Results: The fossil Loranthaceae pollen document the presence of at least one extant root-parasitic lineage (Nuytsieae) and two currently aerial parasitic lineages (Psittacanthinae and Loranthinae) by the end of the Eocene in the Northern Hemisphere. Phases of increased lineage diversification (late Eocene, middle Miocene) coincide with global warm phases. Discussion: With the generation of molecular data becoming easier and less expensive every day, neontological research should re-focus on conserved 16 December 2016 Submitted morphologies that can be traced through the fossil record. The pollen, representing Accepted 4May2017 Published 7 June 2017 the male gametophytic generation of plants and often a taxonomic indicator, can be such a tracer. Analogously, palaeontological research should put more effort Corresponding authors Friðgeir Grı´msson, into diagnosing Cenozoic fossils with the aim of including them into modern [email protected] systematic frameworks.

  • Micrthe Vegetation of the Western
    MU 30 EXPOSED BLUE MOUNTAINS SYDNEY PEPPERMINT – SILVERTOP ASH SHRUBBY WOODLAND CORRESPONDING CLASSIFICATIONS Regional: DSF136 Blue Mountains Ridgetop Forest State: Sydney Montane Dry Sclerophyll Forest Number of Sites: 11 Average number of identified native species per plot: 27.2 DESCRIPTION A very common vegetation community of the broad sandtone ridges found across extensive areas of the Blue Mountains region. This moderately tall forest of less than 20 metres in height is usually dominated by two eucalypt species E. piperata and E. sieberi. The shrub layer is typically rich in legumes, epacrids and members of the Proteaceae family. Taller shrubs such as Leptospermum and Hakea are also a distinctive component of the mid-stratum. The groundcover is typically sparse, and dominated by tough-leaved plants such as the smaller lomandras and the leafless small shrub Amperea. It grades into Map Unit 29 on the adjoining sheltered upper sandstone slopes. The community is extensively distributed to the north, south and east of the study area throughout the more elevated areas of the Blue Mountains and Wollemi reserves. It equates to the Blue Mountains Ridgetop Forest of Tindall et al. (2004) and is recognised as part of the Sydney Montane Dry Sclerophyll Forest of Keith (2004). Within the study area the unit is distributed from 700 to 1100 metres above sea level and typically receives between 700 and 1100 millimetres of precipitation per annum.
