The area surveyed by field work during 1995, 1996, 1997 and 1999 covers about 181,723 km2 and includes the following 1:250,000 scale map sheets: the entire Balfour Downs, Marble Bar, Nullagine, Robertson, Roy Hill, Pt Hedland and Yarrie sheets, most of the Mt Bruce, Newman, Pyramid and Yarraloola sheets and small parts of the Collier, Dampier, Mandora, Onslow, Roebourne, Turee Creek and Wyloo sheets. Seven towns fall within the area, namely Pt Hedland in the north, Onslow and Pannawonica to the west, Wittenoom in the centre, Marble Bar and Nullagine in the centre east and Newman in the south-east. Several major river catchments occur in the survey area including the De Grey, Turner and Yule in the north, and the Fortescue and Robe in the west. All rivers are ephemeral and flow generally north-west to the Indian Ocean. 2. Pastoralism is the most extensive land use in the area. Forty-four pastoral leases fall wholly or partly within the survey area and collectively occupy about 105,240 km2 (58% of the area). Areas set aside for nature conservation at the time of survey covered approximately 16,629 km2 (9% of the area) consisting of the Karijini and Millstream-Chichester National Parks, the Mungaroona Range and Cane River Nature Reserves and the Meentheena pastoral lease which has been purchased by the Department of Conservation and Land Management (CALM), destocked and is to be incorporated into the conservation estate. The Aboriginal reserves of Abydos, Jigalong, Woodstock and Yandeyarra, and the special lease for Aboriginal use, Callawa, occupy about 9,740 km2 (5% of the area). Mining is an important land use which is largely confined to ironstone ranges and greenstone belts throughout the survey area. There are also large tracts of unallocated Crown land which account for about 48,840 km2 (27% of the area). The remaining 1% of the survey area is made up of town commons and various reserves. 3. This report provides a regional inventory and descriptive reference of land resources to accompany a land system map. The report includes reviews of background information such as land use history, climate, geology and hydrogeology, and declared plants and animals. Detailed accounts are then provided of survey methodology, geomorphology, soils, vegetation, site type ecology, land systems and resource condition (in terms of pastoral impact) of the survey area. A comprehensive plant species list is supplied as an appendix. 4. Resource condition statements are provided for the whole survey area, for each land system and for the major ecological site types. These are derived from 12,445 visual traverse assessments, which are shown on the accompanying land system map. Severely degraded and eroded areas have been mapped. 5. The report deals specifically with resource description and assessment, recognising the widespread impact of pastoralism on resources in the process. A companion report1 focusing on pastoral

    Outline of Angiosperm Phylogeny

    Outline of angiosperm phylogeny: orders, families, and representative genera with emphasis on Oregon native plants Priscilla Spears December 2013 The following listing gives an introduction to the phylogenetic classification of the flowering plants that has emerged in recent decades, and which is based on nucleic acid sequences as well as morphological and developmental data. This listing emphasizes temperate families of the Northern Hemisphere and is meant as an overview with examples of Oregon native plants. It includes many exotic genera that are grown in Oregon as ornamentals plus other plants of interest worldwide. The genera that are Oregon natives are printed in a blue font. Genera that are exotics are shown in black, however genera in blue may also contain non-native species. Names separated by a slash are alternatives or else the nomenclature is in flux. When several genera have the same common name, the names are separated by commas. The order of the family names is from the linear listing of families in the APG III report. For further information, see the references on the last page.

Acacia longifolia is an aggressive invader worldwide. This species was brought to Portugal by the forestry services and is now found throughout the country with very strong ecological and social impacts. Al- though several ecological and physiological studies have been carried out, molecular studies in this species are sparse. Particularly, genetic variability evaluation in invasive ranges clearly deserves more attention. The aim of this study was to evaluate the genetic diversity and the genetic differentiation among populations of the alien in- vasive A. longifolia under different Mediterranean conditions. For that we studied three sandy dune populations along the Portuguese coast: Osso da Baleia (mesomediterranean), Pinheiro da Cruz and Vila Nova de Milfontes (termomediterranean). All sampled acacia plants were located underneath a pine forest, with the exception of the latter case study, where we also sampled in a diversified habitat conditions associated with the margins of agriculture fields.

Three Beard Vegetation Associations are located within the application areas (Shepherd et al., 2001): • Beard Vegetation Association 18: Low woodland; mulga ( Acacia aneura ); • Beard Vegetation Association 29: Sparse low woodland; mulga, discontinuous in scattered groups; and • Beard Vegetation Association 82: Hummock grasslands, low tree steppe; snappy gum over Triodia wiseana . Mattiske Consulting (2008) has conducted a flora and vegetation survey over an area that included the application areas. The survey was conducted in April and May 2008 following favourable seasonal rainfall (Mattiske Consulting, 2008). Mattiske Consulting (2008) has recorded 25 vegetation units within the vegetation survey area with the following 11 being likely to be impacted by the proposed clearing: Flowlines (Creeklines and Drainage Areas): C2) Low woodland of Eucalyptus xerothermica, Eucalyptus victrix over Acacia citrinoviridis and Acacia maitlandii, Gossypium australe, Melaleuca lasiandra, Petalostylis labicheoides, Rulingia luteiflora over Triodia epactia, Chrysopogon fallax and Triodia pungens on minor creeklines with sandy soils.

Canberra, Australia. i STATEMENT This thesis describes my own work which included collaboration with Dr N .. E. Stone (Taxonomy Unit, R .. S ..

Lazarides (Australian National Herbarium, c .. s .. r .. R ..

Postgraduate Scholarship. iii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS My time in the Taxonomy Unit has been a happy one: I could not have asked for better supervision for my project or for a more congenial atmosphere in which to work. To Dr. Paul Hattersley, for his help, advice, encouragement and friendship, I owe a lot more than can be said in just a few words: but, Paul, thanks very much! To Mr. Les Watson I owe as much for his own support and guidance, and for many discussions on things often psittacaceous as well as graminaceous! Dr. Nancy Stone was a kind teacher in many days of enzyme assays and Chris Frylink a great help and friend both in and out of the lab •• Further thanks go to Mike Lazarides (Australian National Herbarium, c.s.I.R.O.) for identifying many grass specimens and for unpublished data on infrageneric groups in Eragrostis; Dr.

    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.
