Many ofthe annualspecies are small and inconspicuous,as well asbeing absent altogether forpartofeach year,sotendto bepoorly collected. SincethePerthregional florawas completed,eight additional annual specieshave been recordedin that region. In maly ofthe perennialspecies, maximum fruitsethasbeenreducedto oneor twonuts per spikelet, and vegetativespread by rhizomesis ofgreat importance.Annual speciesneed to producea good seed crop eachyear to ensurefuture generationsand almost invariably producelarger numbersofnuts per spikeletor condensedspike. Sinceftuitingquickly follows flowering in annuals,flowering andfruiting generally occur in the samemonths. The flowering and fruiting periods given here apply only to specimenscollected in the study area,as do any measurementsand other descriptions. Distributionpatt€rns and new records Most speciesof Cyperaceaehave wide distributions,often extending to otherstates ofAustralia andoverseas. The annual species occur mainly in seasonallydamp habitats, including the margins of watercouses,low-lying flats and rock crevices.Ofthe 48 namednative species included here, 13 are endemicto thesouth-west and one to thePilbara area ofWestern Australia. Five species (Fim brrsD,/is ammobia,Fuirena incrassatd,F. nudiJlora,Isolepis australiensis and. Schoenus centralis) arcknown from lessthan five localitiesin this Statebut havebeen collected more frequently from otherparts of Austlalia,while the remaining species have beenwidely collected both in WesternAustraliaand outside theState. The Western Australian distributions ofall thespecies are shown in Figuresl-18, with each symbolindicating thepresence ofthe taxon in aquarterdegree latitude by quarterdegree longitude area. Thenumber ofnamed annual species recorded for WesternAustralia since the publication ofthe censusand its mostrecent supplement (Green 1985, 1988) has increased by seven. Curation ofthe PERTH collectionby KarenWilson has led to the additionofthe two nativespecies Fzirena incrassata and, Isolepisaustraliensr's and the introduced species 1solepis llystlr. A furtherfour species,named since thelast supplement ofthe census,are Fln bristylissimulans (LaIz 1990), Sc hoenus badius, S. plumosus andS. variicellae (Rye 1997). Onespecies previously recorded (Wilson l98l ) for WestemAustralia,butnow excluded, is 1solepis platycarpa(5.T. Blake)Soj6k. This speciesoccurs in SouthAustralia, New SouthWales, Victoria, Tasmaniaand New Zealand, andmightproveto be more widespread, but there are cunentlyno specimens knownto havebeen collected from WesternAustralia. Thedescriptions given for all theannual species included in "Floraofthe Perth Region" (Rye 1987) areaccurate except that the one given under the name ,Sc&oenus odontocarpus actually applies to the new speciesS. variicellae. At the time the flora treatmentwas prepared,no specimensof true S. odontocdrpusfrom the Perthregion had been seen, but somehave since been incorporated in the collectionat PERTH. Othernewly recordednative species for the regionarc Isolepiscongrua, L hookeriena,Schoenus humilis, S. plumosus, S. sp.Bullsbrook (J.J. Alford9l1) andS. sp.Waroona (G.J.Keighery 12235).

(National Herbarium of New South Wales, Royal Botanic Gardens, Sydney, New South Wales, Australia) 1981. The genus Scirpus sens. lat. (Cyperaceae) in Australia. Telopea 2 (2): 153-172.—All Australian species (both native and naturalized) that were formerly referred toScirpus sens. lat. are placed in the segregate generaBolboschoenus (3 spp.), Hymenochaeta (1 sp.), Isolepis (28 spp.), Schoenoplectus (11 spp.), Scirpus sens, strict. (1 sp.), or are referred to other genera (Cyperus sens, lat., C. hanuilosus; and Lipocarpha, L. microcephala). New combinations are made for Isolepis humillima, /. montivaga, I. oldfieldiana, I. producta, I. setiformis, /. stclkita, I. tasmanica, I. victoriensis and I. wakefieldiana. Keys are provided to genera and species. INTRODUCTION Scirpus has been circumscribed in a broad sense in all Australian and many other Floras, even though it has been regarded as heterogeneous by recent authors (e.g., Kern 1974). Raynal (1973) describedScirpus as “manifestement un genre residu”, composed of all the elements left in the subfamily Cyperoideae after the most strikingly different elements had been separated as genera. This is an apt description. In this paper, the species ofScirpus sens.

  • Species List
    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.

Precedenti asserzioni sulla spontaneita’ di Cladium mariscus e Cyperus michelianus vengono qui con- siderate erronee e attribuibili a C. jamaicense e C. pygmaeus. Kyllinga brevifolia viene citata per la prima volta per Gran Canaria. Viene discussa inoltre la identita’ di Fimbristylis ferruginea per Gran Canaria.
