HClNC Vegetation Classification & mapping Project: Volume 1: Vegetation Classification Technical Report Appendix 6: Collated review continued Outliers Action Final notes accepted Group undersampled Further notes No Location Site cleaning Check Split Merge Remove accepted Proposed name change Group Preliminary community name Group Detailed notes Group Closest to Group 117 statistically so could be considered a variant of this; also a bit of a geographic outlier; merge with Group 117. Two of the sites do not relate to other sites – recheck these against other groups – Steve Bell. Group could probably occur in a lower rainfall area compared to other basalt community groups – could be a distinct group – Steve Bell. N x Requires checking. Y 2 Two sites do not seem to belong to this group. 118 Giant Stinging Tree / Sandpaper Fig dry subtropical rainforest at Mt Yengo N Y Don’t merge with Group 132; more closely related to a number of other groups. N x Merge with Group 132 – andrew Paget. 121 Lilly Pilly / Grey Myrtle / Rasp Fern of Barrington foothills and Central Coast Y No good reasons to change this group. Reasonable community, however, there were some plots that might need be reallocated – Doug Binns. Sites south of Cessnock represent this community – Travis Peake. Sites located at the Central Coast represent this community, however, they could be merged in with a Blackbutt group – Robert Payne. Community group is associated with moist gullies – Robert Payne. Three outliers located near the Cape on the coast at Great Lakes – Steve Griffith. Relationship to David Tierney Group 31 subtle changes in shelter? – Daniel Connolly. Y 3 Sites along the coast of Great Lakes. N x Central Coast sites could be merged with Blackbutt community – Robert Payne. 125 White Mahogany moist shrubby open forest 176 Y Merge Group 129 and Group 130. N Very close to Group 127 so that outlier from Group 127 might belong to this group – John Hunter. N x Merge with Group 130 – Robert Payne. 129 Turpentine / Sydney Blue Gum mesic tall open forest of the Central Coast ranges Merge Group 129 and Group 130. N Could be observer arterfact here – Doug Binns. May need to combine – Doug Binns. Same as Group 129 – Robert Payne. N x Merge with Group 129 – Robert Payne. 130 Sydney Blue Gum / Tupentine / Cabbage Palm moist open forest of the Central Coast N Does this relate to Group 121? – andrew Paget. Y Merge Group 132 with Group 133. N x Merge with Group 121 – andrew Paget. Merge with Group 131 – Daniel Connolly. 132 Black apple / Whalebone Tree dry subtropical rainforest of foothills Merge Group 132 with Group 133. N x Requires checking. N These sites were all fairly disturbed – Doug Binns. This group is similar to Group 132 – John Hunter. Sites up in the far north-west could belong to a vine thicket community. Had trouble locating these sites in his classification work – Travis Peake. Merge groups 132 and 131? 133 are sites on the margin and disturbed – Daniel Connolly. 133 Whalebone Tree / Red Kamala dry subtropical rainforest of the Lower Hunter River
Appendix 6: Collated review continued Outliers Action Final notes accepted Group undersampled Further notes No Location Site cleaning Check Split Merge Remove accepted Proposed name change Group Preliminary community name Group Detailed notes Group N Re-allocate eT2 to Group 131: Group 18 and Group 137 are not related statistically; the two remaining sites in Group 137 could either be considered a localised ‘boutique’ community or remain unallocated; I will leave them unallocated. N The northern-most site might need to be checked. Cabbage Palm does occur up in the north where the outlier is located – Steve Griffith. David Tierney – was happy with this community and the sites do represent it. N x Merge with Group 18. 137 Cabbage Palm gullies on Munmorah peninsula N Could be the same as Group 144 – andrew Paget. Y Groups 142, 143 and 144 are an altitudinal and moisture gradient; don’t merge. N x Merge with Group 144 – andrew Paget. 142 New england Blackbutt / Tallowwood semi-mesic open forest at intermediate altitudes of southern North Coast Y Don’t merge; floristically distinct; no nearest nearest neighbours in Group 6; groups 142, 143 and 144 are an altitudinal and moisture gradient; don’t merge. There could be one outlier in the south. How different is it to Group 6? – andrew Paget. Should it get merged? Y 1 Site south of main distribution N x Merge with Group 6 – andrew Paget. 143 Sydney Blue Gum / Tallowwood moist tall open forest at mid altitudes of the southern North Coast 177 aPPeNDIx 6 Collated review N The range looks good for this group. Y Groups 142, 143 and 144 are an altitudinal and moisture gradient; don’t merge. N x Merge with Group 142 – andrew Paget. 144 New england Blackbutt shrubby open forest on the escarpment Y Don’t merge Group 146 with Group 147; statistically different. N How does this relate to Group 147? – andrew Paget. Group 147 was definitely floristically distinct – Doug Binns. Requires checking – all. N x Merge with Group 147 – andrew Paget. 146 Messmate grassy open forest on Barrington area and tableland edge N Could this be merged with group 146? – andrew Paget. Y Don’t merge Group 146 with Group 147; statistically different. N x Merge with Group 146 – andrew Paget. 147 Messmate / Saw Sedge wet ferny open forest of Barrington area
