There is an attractive contrast between the grey leaves of the Eremophilas and the green of the Banksia. Moderately fast growing and hardy in frosty climates like ours, the plants are growing in heavy clay soil along one edge of our natural pond in full sun. The plants have many flowers which seem to last for months on the bush. The flower spikes are large, almost as big as B. ‘Giant Candles’ but the plants are much more vigorous. In our garden Three Banksias for your Garden B. ‘Giant Candles’ does not thrive and Banksia 'Bulli Baby' (above and below) becomes very chloritic which no amount of Iron Chelate or other Banksia 'Yellow Wing' supplements seems to cure.

Jervis Bay, in the B. spinulosa complex. Phenetic analysis of individuals from all named taxa in the B. spinulosa complex, including B. sp. Jervis Bay, based on leaf, floral, seed and bract characters support recognition of this species, which is described here as Banksia vincentia M.L.Stimpson & P.H.Weston. Known only from fourteen individuals, B. vincentia is distinguished by its semi-prostrate habit, with basally prostrate, distally ascending branches from the lignotuber, and distinctive perianth colouring. Its geographical location and ecological niche also separate it from its most similar congeners. Introduction The Banksia spinulosa complex has a complicated taxonomic history (Table 1). Smith (1793) first described and named B. spinulosa Sm., and subsequent botanists named two close relatives, B. collina R.Br. and B.

GORDON2, and S. NESER3 1Richard Hill & Associates, Private Bag 4704, Christchurch, New Zealand 2Plant Protection Research Institute, Private Bag X5017, Stellenbosch, 7599 South Africa 3Plant Protection Research Institute, Private Bag X134, Pretoria, 0001 South Africa Abstract Australian acacias invade watersheds and riverbeds in South Africa, reducing water flows and threatening environmental and economic values. Acacia mearnsii is the most widespread and important weed but also forms the basis of an important industry. A. dealbata, and to a lesser extent A. decurrens are also problems. All belong to the Section Botrycephalae of the sub-genus Heterophyllum. Short term control is achieved locally by removing plants, and by using herbicides, but seed-feeding control agents may provide an acceptable solution in the long term. Larvae of Bruchophagus acaciae (Cameron) (Hymenoptera: Eurytomidae) develop in the seeds of acacias. It was described from New Zealand, but is an Australian species. We explore whether B. acaciae has a role as a con- trol agent for acacias in South Africa. Seed was collected from 28 Australian species of Acacia growing in New Zealand. Attack was restricted to four of the seven species with- in the Section Botrycephalae, and two cases of attack on Acacia rubida (Section Phyllodineae; n=9). Apart from a wasp reared from one seed, A.

[email protected] Abstract: The 80 paintings of Australian flora, fauna and landscapes by English artist Marianne North (1830-1890), completed during her travels in 1880–1881, provide a record of the Australian environment rarely presented by artists at that time. In the words of her mentor Sir Joseph Dalton Hooker, director of Kew Gardens, North’s objective was to capture landscapes that were ‘doomed shortly to disappear before the axe and the forest fires, the plough and the flock, or the ever advancing settler or colonist’. In addition to her paintings, North wrote books recollecting her travels, in which she presented her observations and explained the relevance of her paintings, within the principles of a ‘Darwinian vision,’ and inevitable and rapid environmental change. By examining her paintings and writings together, North’s works provide a documented narrative of the state of the Australian environment in the late nineteenth- century, filtered through the themes of personal botanical discovery, colonial expansion and British imperialism.

Ltd.) Report prepared 2 April 2015 for Casey & Lowe Heritage Consultants Pty. Ltd. (Leichardt) Consultant Palynological Services, 13 Walu Place, Aranda. A.C.T. 2614 Ph. 02-6251-1631/0432-233-230. E-mail [email protected] 1 1. INTRODUCTION Belated recognition (Gammage 2012) that much of the Australian landscape is a cultural landscape has refocused interest in the environments encountered by Europeans at the time of first settlement of Sydney Cove in 1788 – both as evidence for (i) the impact of millennia of skilful burning by Australia's Indigenous inhabitants and (ii) as a bench mark to assess change shaped by c. 225 years of European occupation. As for the Tank Stream Valley (Macphail 2014a), direct evidence of the 1788 environment is mostly limited to observations in early Colonial documents and fossils in late eighteen century or older sediments fortuitously preserved under younger cultural deposits. Redevelopment of the foreshore of Darling Harbour has provided a unique opportunity to reconstruct the pre- and post-European settlement landscapes encompassing Cockle Bay, the most eastern bay in the complex of bays called 'the harbour-within-the harbour' by Stephenson & Kennedy 1980). Unlike the eastern (Sydney CBD ridge) foreshore of Cockle Bay, which was occupied by Europeans in the 1790s, the southwestern (Ultimo-Pyrmont) foreshore was part of a large Colonial Period Estate (Harris Estate) that was quarantined from urban developments into the 1850s (Fitzgerald & Golder 2009).
