    J.M. Percy-Bower & C.M. Parker, Updates to Western Australia’s vascular plant census for 2018 1 Nuytsia The journal of the Western Australian Herbarium 30: 1–18 Published online 28 March 2019 SHORT COMMUNICATION Updates to Western Australia’s vascular plant census for 2018 The census database at the Western Australian Herbarium (PERTH), which provides the nomenclature for the website FloraBase (Western Australian Herbarium 1998–), lists current names and recent synonymy for Western Australia’s native and naturalised vascular plants, as well as algae, bryophytes, lichens, slime moulds and some fungi. The names represented in the census are either sourced from published research or denote as yet unpublished names based on herbarium voucher specimens. We herein summarise the changes made to vascular plant names in this database during 2018. One hundred and twenty-nine taxa were newly recorded for the State, of which 24 are naturalised and 41 have been added to the Threatened and Priority Flora list for Western Australia (Smith & Jones 2018; Western Australian Herbarium 1998–) (Table 1). A total of 185 name changes were made, including the formal publication of 29 phrase-named taxa (Table 2). Plant groups for which a number of name changes were made include Hydrocotyle L. (Perkins 2018a, 2018b), Drosera L. (Lowrie 2013a, 2013b, 2014), Lepilaena Harv. (Ito et al. 2016; Macfarlane et al. 2017) and Zygophyllum L. (transferred to Roepera A.Juss. following Beier et al. 2003). Numerous phrased-named taxa in the genus Baeckea L. were formally published under an expanded circumscription of Hysterobaeckea (Nied.) Rye (Rye 2018). Table 2 also includes cases where there has been a change of taxonomic concept, misapplication, exclusion or rank change.

    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.

    Variation in floral fragrance of tuberous Drosera Robert Gibson • 5 Kristen Close • Cardiff Heights • NSW, 2285 • Australia • robert.gibson@ environment.nsw.gov.au Keywords: floral aroma, tuberous Drosera. Introduction Floral fragrance is not widely developed in the genus Drosera, and little has been written about this feature. Interestingly, most species with fragrant flowers are found in Australia and comprise some pygmy Drosera (Drosera subgenus Bryastrum section Lamprolepis Planch.) such as D. dichrosepala Turz., D. enodes N.G.Marchant & Lowrie, D. paleacea subsp. trichocaulis (Diels) N.G.Marchant & Lowrie, and D. roseana N.G.Marchant & Lowrie (Lowrie 1987) and most of the tuberous sundews (Drosera subgenus Ergaleium) (Lowrie 1987), such as D. heterophylla Lindl. (Bourke & Nunn 2012), D. praefolia Tepper (Gibson 1995), D. prostratoscaposa Lowrie & Carlquist (Lowrie & Carlquist 1990) and D. rupicola (N.G.Marchant) Lowrie (Lowrie 1987). Five species of sundew with sweetly scented flowers have recently been reported from northern South America: D. amazonica Rivadavia, A.Fleischm. & Vicent., D. arenicola Steyerm., D. felix Steyerm. & L.B.Sm., D. kaieteurensis Brumm.-Ding., and D. solaris A.Fleischm., Wistuba & S.McPherson (Rivadavia et al. 2009); all of which are found in Drosera subgenus Drosera section Oosperma Schlauer. This paper presents a summary of my observations of floral fragrance in the tuberous sundew (Drosera subgenus Ergaleium (DC.) Drude). Petal fragrance is one of several means that plants use to attract visitors to flowers to facilitate pollination (e.g. Miyake & Yafuso 2003). This is particularly important in groups of plants, such as tuberous Drosera, for most are self-incompatible and therefore rely on successful cross-pollination in order to set seed (Lin et al.

It differs from D. bulbosa subsp bulbosa and D. bulbosa subsp. major (Diels) N.G.Marchant primarily by having yellow pollen, and styles that form an annulus (crown) around the exposed apex of the ovary. It is currently known from two locations; however it is not considered to be under imminent threat of extinction. Introduction Analysis of variation in Drosera bulbosa across its distributional range revealed an unusual variant in the northern Wheatbelt of south Western Australia that is readily distinguishable, when in flower, from other known subspecies of this species. This subspecies is a flat-rosetted tuberous Drosera (Drosera subgenus Erythrorhiza), with leaves that are obovate to rectangular with a conspicuously raised mid-rib on the adaxial surface; flowers borne on individual pedicels arising directly from the centre of the rosette; and styles capitate similar to those of D. bulbosa (Fig. 1). However, the flower structure and pollen colour suggest that it is a new subspecies of D. bulbosa. Taxonomy Drosera bulbosa subsp. coronata R.P.Gibson, subsp.
