A Vegetation Survey of the Islands of the Turquoise Coast from Dongara to Lancelin, South-Western Australia
AConservation vegetation survey Science of W.the Aust. islands 4 (1) from : 13–62 Dongara (2002) to Lancelin, south-western Australia 13 A vegetation survey of the islands of the Turquoise Coast from Dongara to Lancelin, south-western Australia GREG J. KEIGHERY1, JENI J. ALFORD2 AND VANDA LONGMAN1 1 Science Division, Department of Conservation and Land Management, Wildlife Research Centre, PO Box 51, Wanneroo, Western Australia 6496. [email protected] 2 Mining Operations Division, Department of Minerals and Energy, 48 Brockman Street, Kalgoorlie, Western Australia 6430 ABSTRACT Thirty seven islands along the Turquoise Coast, the lower west coast of Western Australia between Dongara and Lancelin, were surveyed for vegetation and flora. One hundred and twenty one plant species were recorded from the islands. The richest islands were those with both sandy hills and limestone heath (North Boullanger Island with 62 plant species, Lancelin Island with 60 plant species, Escape Island with 60 plant species, Whitlock Island with 55 plant species, North Cervantes Island with 53 plant species and Boullanger Island with 50 plant species). The most widespread species was Nitraria billardierei, which was present on all of the islands surveyed, and the most common vegetation formations were heath, shrublands and herbfields. The vegetation of 14 of the islands had been previously studied thoroughly, and this survey found only Middle Essex Rocks to have fewer plant species than in previous studies; normally increases of 50–100 per cent were documented. Introduced species were common on all islands, but were mainly associated with disturbance caused by seabird colonies or human-made tracks (foot or vehicle).

FPMRIS Guidelines for Ground Plot Measurement Standard Operating Procedure 15 Measuring Vegetation Quadrats Overview This SOP describes the tasks required to establish and mark out vegetation quadrats and to measure understorey vegetation and groundcover parameters. Quadrats are placed at the perimeter of the Large Tree Plot, which has a nominal radius of 11.28 m, adjusted for slope. Ground parameters are the only items for which an estimate of cover will be made.

Baron F. von Mueller hat nicht mehr Zeit gefunden, den I.

Verwunderlich ist jedoch, dali weder ein australischer noch ein englischer Botaniker es unternommen hat, zu diesem ausgezeichneten Tafelwerk den Text zu schreiben. Da nach nun mehr ais 30 Jahren seit F. von Muellers Tode und 55 Jahre seit dem Erscheinen des funften Bandes der Flora Au straliensis sich niemand gefunden hat, der sein Werk vollenden konnte, wird es wohl nicht ais ein unzeitiges Vordrangen bezeichnet werden diirfen, wenn ich tue, was Andre, und solche, denen die Aufgabe naher lag, langst hatten lun konnen oder sollen.

Further Disintegration of Scrophulariaceae

[email protected] A phylogenetic study of plastid DNA sequences (ndhF, trnL/F, and rps16) in Lamiales is presented. In partic- ular, the inclusiveness of Scrophulariaceae sensu APG II is elaborated. Scrophulariaceae in this sense are main- ly a southern hemisphere group, which includes Hemimerideae (including Alonsoa, with a few South American species), Myoporeae, the Central American Leucophylleae (including Capraria), Androya, Aptosimeae, Buddlejeae, Teedieae (including Oftia, Dermatobotrys, and Freylinia), Manuleeae, and chiefly Northern tem- perate Scrophularieae (including Verbascum and Oreosolen). Camptoloma and Phygelius group with Buddlejeae and Teedieae, but without being well resolved to any of these two groups. Antherothamnus is strongly supported as sister taxon to Scrophularieae. African Stilbaceae are shown to include Bowkerieae and Charadrophila. There is moderate support for a clade of putative Asian origin and including Phrymaceae, Paulownia, Rehmannia, Mazus, Lancea, and chiefly parasitic Orobanchaceae, to which Brandisia is shown to belong. A novel, strongly supported, clade of taxa earlier assigned to Scrophulariaceae was found. The clade includes Stemodiopsis, Torenia, Micranthemum and probably Picria and has unclear relationships to the rest of Lamiales.
