Det.: K.L. Wilson Oct 2010
CYPERACEAE
Loc.: 1.1 km S along Holdfast Road from junction with
Tarwoona Road, towards Yetman
AUSTRALIA NSW North Western Plains
Lat. 28° 39'44"S Long. 150° 43'48"E Alt.: 246 m
Datum: GDA94
Coll.: K.L. Wilson 10664
Date: 27 Oct 2010
Notes: Big open swamp on eastern side of road for c. 1.5 km,
bordered by woodland with Euc. populnea, a narrow-leafed
box, Allocasuarina luehmannii. Dominated by Eleocharis
plana.
Culms more or less terete (cf. KW 10665), yellow-green (septa
not obvious externally but can be felt by running fingernail
down culm). Frequent near margin of swamp at roadside (so
far as I could see: just on sunset). Also Juncus aridicola and
Fimbristylis dichotoma (in drier places). Stopped again c. 5
km farther south but no E. blakeana there, just E. plana and E.
macbarronii
