BIODIVERSITY CONSERVATION on the TIWI ISLANDS, NORTHERN TERRITORY: Part 1. Environments and Plants
BIODIVERSITY CONSERVATION ON THE TIWI ISLANDS, NORTHERN TERRITORY: Part 1. Environments and plants Report prepared by John Woinarski, Kym Brennan, Ian Cowie, Raelee Kerrigan and Craig Hempel. Darwin, August 2003 Cover photo: Tall forests dominated by Darwin stringybark Eucalyptus tetrodonta, Darwin woollybutt E. miniata and Melville Island Bloodwood Corymbia nesophila are the principal landscape element across the Tiwi islands (photo: Craig Hempel). i SUMMARY The Tiwi Islands comprise two of Australia’s largest offshore islands - Bathurst (with an area of 1693 km 2) and Melville (5788 km 2) Islands. These are Aboriginal lands lying about 20 km to the north of Darwin, Northern Territory. The islands are of generally low relief with relatively simple geological patterning. They have the highest rainfall in the Northern Territory (to about 2000 mm annual average rainfall in the far north-west of Melville and north of Bathurst). The human population of about 2000 people lives mainly in the three towns of Nguiu, Milakapati and Pirlangimpi. Tall forests dominated by Eucalyptus miniata, E. tetrodonta, and Corymbia nesophila cover about 75% of the island area. These include the best developed eucalypt forests in the Northern Territory. The Tiwi Islands also include nearly 1300 rainforest patches, with floristic composition in many of these patches distinct from that of the Northern Territory mainland. Although the total extent of rainforest on the Tiwi Islands is small (around 160 km 2 ), at an NT level this makes up an unusually high proportion of the landscape and comprises between 6 and 15% of the total NT rainforest extent. The Tiwi Islands also include nearly 200 km 2 of “treeless plains”, a vegetation type largely restricted to these islands. -
Evolutionary Consequences of Dioecy in Angiosperms: the Effects of Breeding System on Speciation and Extinction Rates
EVOLUTIONARY CONSEQUENCES OF DIOECY IN ANGIOSPERMS: THE EFFECTS OF BREEDING SYSTEM ON SPECIATION AND EXTINCTION RATES by JANA C.

The University of British Columbia Vancouver, Canada http://www.library.ubc.ca/spcoll/thesauth.html ABSTRACT Dioecy, the breeding system with male and female function on separate individuals, may affect the ability of a lineage to avoid extinction or speciate. Dioecy is a rare breeding system among the angiosperms (approximately 6% of all flowering plants) while hermaphroditism (having male and female function present within each flower) is predominant. Dioecious angiosperms may be rare because the transitions to dioecy have been recent or because dioecious angiosperms experience decreased diversification rates (speciation minus extinction) compared to plants with other breeding systems. -

Chacun sa chimère Sous un grand ciel gris, dans une grande plaine poudreuse, sans chemins, sans gazon, sans un chardon, sans une ortie, je rencontrai plusieurs hommes qui marchaient courbés. Chacun d’eux portait sur son dos une énorme Chimère, aussi lourde qu’un sac de farine ou de charbon, ou le fourniment d’un fantassin romain. Mais la monstrueuse bête n’était pas un poids inerte; au contraire, elle enveloppait et opprimait l’homme de ses muscles élastiques et puissants; elle s’agrafait avec ses deux vastes griffes à la poitrine de sa monture et sa tête fabuleuse surmontait le front de l’homme, comme un de ces casques horribles par lesquels les anciens guerriers espéraient ajouter à la terreur de l’ennemi. -

Back in the 1940s, she said, University of Miami (UM) football players would sometimes assist with heavy lifting projects around the Garden. Any time there were massive boulders or tree trunks to be moved,A Dr. David Fairchild would phone the UM football coach and make a plea for help. I have never found proof of this in our archives, but the story fits with what we know of Dr. Fairchild’s creativity and persuasiveness. It also reflects a collaborative spirit that still exists between our Garden and local universities. Today we still have massive projects we can’t do ourselves, and we receive help from UM, Florida International University (FIU) and Miami-Dade College (MDC) in unexpected ways. -

According to these authors, the Neotropical kingdom is divided into seven floristic regions and is characterized by 32 endemic plant families, 10 of which occur in Cuba. These are: Marcgraviaceae, Bixaceae, Cochlospermaceae, Brunelliaceae, Picrodendraceae, Calyceraceae, Bromeliaceae, Cyclanthaceae, Heliconiaceae and Cannaceae. The Caribbean floristic region has been divided into four provinces: l. Southern California-Mexico, 2. Caribbean, 3. Guatemala-Panama, and 4. North Colombia-North Venezuela, Cuba, as a separate sub-province, belongs to the Caribbean province. 21.2 A new proposal far the phytogeographic regionalization of the Caribbean area In the author's opinion the above-mentioned phytogeographic classification does not reflect correctly the evolutionary history and the present floristic conditions of the Caribbean. In addition, the early isolation of the Antilles and the rich endemic flora of the archipelago are not considered satisfactorily. -

Giles Waines Dr. J. Travis Columbus Copyright by Aaron Allon Jenks 2009 The Dissertation of Aaron Allon Jenks is approved: _________________________________________ _________________________________________ _________________________________________ Committee Chairperson University of California, Riverside ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS A number of individuals and organizations are deserving of thanks and acknowledgement for their contributions, both personal and professional, to the completion of this project. Most of all I would like to thank my wonderful wife, Allison Bacon, for her love and support throughout my years at UC Riverside. She admirably and amiably tolerated our house and yard becoming overgrown with multitudes of sages and a husband obsessed with plants. I love you above all else, Allison. I am also extremely thankful for the newest member of my family, our son Aidan Avery Jenks, who was born during my graduate stint at UCR. With his bright life and joyous inquisitiveness, he has blessed our lives immeasurably. I also thank my parents, Larry and Betty Jenks, for their constant love and their unflagging belief that I could accomplish whatever I set my mind toward. ‘Twas their intruduction to natural world via weekend campouts in the mountains and horse pack-trips into the Wallowas of Eastern Oregon, that early instilled in me a wonder and love of Nature. A number of individuals have directly contributed to the completion of my dissertation.
