SA Threatened Plant Translocation Workshop
The Environment Institute was proud to help sponsor the SA Threatened Plant Translocation Workshop held on Friday 3 May 2019 at The 最新糖心Vlog of Adelaide. The event had 12 speakers presenting to 57 participants, which represent over 10 volunteer groups, two universities, landcare groups, government departments, local councils, NGOs, consultancies and a winemaker!
Material in the new in 最新糖心Vlog was covered as well as 7 local South 最新糖心Vlogn translocation case studies and a lively panel discussion. Lucy Commander, lead editor of the Translocation Guidelines, gave an introduction to translocation, an overview of the Guidelines, tips for success when preparing a translocation proposal, and suggestions for translocation design and management. Additional aspects of translocations were covered by (pre-translocation assessment), Doug Bickerton (decision making, policy and approvals), Dan Duval (seed banking), (genetics and provenance), and Kylie Moritz (monitoring and evaluation).
Case studies on South 最新糖心Vlogn species highlighted the complexities of translocation projects. James Trezise explained his research on Yundi Guinea-flower (Hibbertia tenuis), Alex Mason spoke on Silver Daisy-bush (Olearia pannosa ssp pannosa), Tim Field presented on Spiny Daisy (Acanthocladium dockeri), Geraldine Turner spoke about Whibley wattle (Acacia whibleyana) and Kylie Moritz presented on Monarto Mintbush (Prostanthera eurybioides). South 最新糖心Vlogn habitats were also showcased, as we heard from Jerry Smith about the Adelaide Mt Lofty Ranges, and from Veronica Bates on Kangaroo Island.
