Census of the Queensland Flora 2017 3
Department of Science, Information Technology and Innovation 4
This census provides authoritative published lists of all the known native and naturalised species of plants, algae, fungi and lichens in Queensland, updated from the previous census lists (Bostock & Holland 2016). Separate listings of the naturalised and doubtfully naturalised flora are also presented, along with an all combined data list. Species that occur in Queensland and that are only known from cultivation are not included in any of the census lists. The names of all native and naturalised species, subspecies, varieties, forms and hybrids known to occur in Queensland are listed, generated from the Queensland Herbarium specimen information database (HERBRECS) as at 4 July 2017. These records are primarily based on the Queensland Herbarium specimen collections representing 247 years of verified specimen data.
The
Census of the Queensland Flora 2017 lists (https://data.qld.gov.au/dataset/census-of-the- queensland-flora-2017) are provided in spreadsheet compatible format on the Queensland open data portal (https://data.qld.gov.au/dataset/census-of-the-queensland-flora-2017). The census lists include scientific names, distributions (pastoral districts) and status of all currently known Queensland plants, algae, fungi and lichens (see definitions below). Print format for some lists is also available on request. A list of name and status changes, since the publication of the Census of the Queensland Flora 2016 (Bostock & Holland 2016), is provided in Appendix A of this document (vascular plants only). Census of the Queensland Flora 2017 lists (spreadsheet compatible format) All combined records: Names, distributions and status of Queensland plants, algae, fungi, lichens and cyanobacteria combined into one list. Full data set: The full data set includes the botanical names broken down into parts (genus, species etc.), names with and without authors and botanical classification number (unique identifier for each name).

native range. Formerly naturalised plants: plants that have previously been naturalised in Queensland, but have not persisted. Doubtfully naturalised plants: plants with populations occurring outside of cultivation, but that are not yet considered to be naturalised (established) in Queensland. The Plantae (green plants) comprise vascular plants (flowering plants, conifers, cycads, ferns and fern allies) and non-vascular plants (mosses, liverworts, hornworts, green algae and red algae). True algae include brown algae and some related groups, together with diatoms (Chromista). Bacteria are here restricted to the cyanobacteria, previously called blue-green algae. More information on the classification of these groups is given below. Specimen counts are given for each Queensland district, together with regional (non-Queensland) counts where applicable. Queensland collections not identifiable to a district are recorded under “Qld”. Explanatory maps are provided for World regions (Map 1) and Australian States and Territories and Queensland pastoral districts (Map 2), at the end of this document. Note that districts of Queensland, normally abbreviated as 2 letters e.g. Mo for Moreton, have been prefaced by a capital Q_ in the spreadsheets, to distinguish them from other regions e.g. Q_Wa for Warrego, Qld, and WA for Western Australia. Where species and intraspecific taxa (subspecies and varieties) are recognised to exist, but not yet formally described, a temporary phrase name linked to a herbarium specimen is provided e.g.
which are only represented by verified specimen(s) held at another herbarium are included with a value of “0” (zero).
Native species are here defined as those that are considered to have evolved in Queensland unaided by humans, or have migrated to and persisted in Queensland without assistance from humans, from an area in which they are considered to be native. The conservation status (X = Presumed Extinct in the wild, E = Endangered, V = Vulnerable or N = Near Threatened) is as recorded in the Queensland Nature Conservation Act 1992
(https://www.legislation.qld.gov.au/LEGISLTN/CURRENT/N/NatureConA92.pdf) for species listed in the Nature Conservation (Wildlife) Regulation 2006
( https://www.legislation.qld.gov.au/LEGISLTN/CURRENT/N/NatureConAdR06.pdf ) as of 4 July 2017. The remaining native plant species have a conservation status of Least Concern and these are not marked with a symbol in the status column. Non-native status Naturalised species are here defined as those that are considered to have established populations outside of their native range, by reproducing there without cultivation or other human intervention. Naturalised species are indicated by an asterisk (*) in the status column. Queensland native plants that have become naturalised in a pastoral district outside their native range are also recorded in a separate list. There are separate census lists for naturalised (*), doubtfully naturalised (D) and formerly naturalised plant species (!). Formerly naturalised species are those that were previously Yüklə 212,13 Kb. Dostları ilə paylaş:
