''Sclerolaena birchii'', commonly known as galvanised burr, is a perennial shrub native to inland Australia. Description ''Sclerolaena birchii'' grows to around 1 m in height and diameter, branches are hairy with obovate to narrow-obovate leaves that can grow from 5- 15mm long. Leaves are shortly petiolate, flat and long. Fruiting perianth is hard, occurs obliquely, elliptic, 2-3mm in length, usually 5 spines present, divergent, the 3 abaxial spines are longer (6-15mm), the 2 adaxial spines usually 1-2mm long. Persistent hair bases cause the base of the spine creates a rough texture; seed is erect. Distribution and Habitat ''Sclerolaena birchii'' can be found as isolated individuals or dense stands, where there are coarse sandy soils, or duplex soils. The galvanised burr often occurs near a few vegetation communities such as: bimble box, mulga and cypress pine. ''Sclerolaena birchii'' is distributed throughout western NSW and has been found in VIC and QLD. ''Sclerolaena bi ...

Karel Domin
Karel Domin (4 May 1882, Kutná Hora, Kingdom of Bohemia – 10 June 1953, Prague) was a Czech botanist and politician. After gymnasium school studies in Příbram, he studied botany at the Charles University in Prague, and graduated in 1906. Between 1911 and 1913 he published several important articles on Australian taxonomy. In 1916 he was named as professor of botany. Domin specialised in phytogeography, geobotany and plant taxonomy. He became a member at the Czechoslovak Academy of Sciences, published many scientific works and founded a botany institute at the university. The Domin scale, a commonly used means of classifying a standard area by the number of plant species found in that area, is named after him. In the academic year 1933-34 he was rector of Charles University and was one of the participants of a struggle for ancient academic insignia between the Czech and German universities of Prague (the ''insigniáda'') that resulted in street-fights and looting.

Caryophyllales Of Australia
Caryophyllales ( ) is a diverse and heterogeneous order of flowering plants that includes the cacti, carnations, amaranths, ice plants, beets, and many carnivorous plants. Many members are succulent, having fleshy stems or leaves. The betalain pigments are unique in plants of this order and occur in all its families with the exception of Caryophyllaceae and Molluginaceae. Description The members of Caryophyllales include about 6% of eudicot species. This order is part of the core eudicots. Currently, the Caryophyllales contains 37 families, 749 genera, and 11,620 species The monophyly of the Caryophyllales has been supported by DNA sequences, cytochrome c sequence data and heritable characters such as anther wall development and vessel-elements with simple perforations. Circumscription As with all taxa, the circumscription of Caryophyllales has changed within various classification systems. All systems recognize a core of families with centrospermous ovules and seeds. Mo ...
