BRADSHAW J6 W-O^S' 106 EDITORIAL NOTE Study of the British flora has made outstanding progress during the past decade and this is therefore an appropriate time to review the methods employed and to consider the most favourable lines for development. The fifth conference sponsored by the Botanical Society of the British Isles was arranged with this object. Consideration of old techniques brought out aspects which have been neglected or misunderstood; accounts of modern methods were illustrated by examples of current work; the review presented an overall picture of available methods which those present at the Conference were able to apply to their own lines of research. The papers and discussion brought out in the clearest possible way two broad lines of development which offer the greatest promise at the present time (see page 124). All the papers read and the accounts of exhibits are published in this book together with the discussion. They are arranged in the sequence used at the Conference except that the exhibits are brought together after the main papers. The scientific names are those used by the speakers except that all trivials are spelled with an initial small letter in accordance with the general policy of the Society. The arrangements for the Conference were in the hands of the Meetings Committee of the Society. Much of the work fell on Dr. J. G. Dony, then Honorary Meetings Secretary, and to his energy and enthusiasm, together with that of the other members of the Committee, and other officers and members who assisted, the success of the Conference was due. I am grateful to J. P. M. Brenan, D. H. Kent, N. Y. Sandwith, Dr. S. M. Walters, P. J. Wanstall, and Dr. E. P. Warburg, members of the Society's Publications Committee, and to E. B. Bangerter for assistance in proof reading. J. E. LOUSLEY. 8 CONFERENCE PROGRAMME PROGRESS IN THE STUDY OF THE BRITISH FLORA FRIDAY, April 13th 10.15 a.m. A welcome to the Conference Prof. T. G.

In addition to being fine mycological books in their own right, they have a great provenance, coming from the libraries of several members of the Fries family – the leading botanist and mycologist family in Sweden. All of the books are from the library of Nils Fries (1912–94), many from that of his grandfather Theodor (Thore) M. Fries (1832–1913), and a few from the library of Nils’ great grandfather Elias M. Fries (1794–1878), “fa- ther of Swedish mycology”. All three were botanists and professors at Uppsala University, as were many other members of the family, often with an orientation towards mycology. Nils Fries field of study was the procreation of mushrooms. Furthermore, Nils Fries has had a partiality for interesting provenances in his purchases – and many international mycologists are found among the former owners of the books in the catalogue. Four of the books are inscribed to Elias M. Fries, and it is probable that more of them come from his collection. Thore M.

    THE IRISH RED DATA BOOK 1 Vascular Plants T.G.F.Curtis & H.N. McGough Wildlife Service Ireland DUBLIN PUBLISHED BY THE STATIONERY OFFICE 1988 ISBN 0 7076 0032 4 This version of the Red Data Book was scanned from the original book. The original book is A5-format, with 168 pages. Some changes have been made as follows: NOMENCLATURE has been updated, with the name used in the 1988 edition in brackets. Irish Names and family names have also been added. STATUS: There have been three Flora Protection Orders (1980, 1987, 1999) to date. If a species is currently protected (i.e. 1999) this is stated as PROTECTED, if it was previously protected, the year(s) of the relevant orders are given. IUCN categories have been updated as follows: EN to CR, V to EN, R to V. The original (1988) rating is given in brackets thus: “CR (EN)”. This takes account of the fact that a rare plant is not necessarily threatened. The European IUCN rating was given in the original book, here it is changed to the UK IUCN category as given in the 2005 Red Data Book listing. MAPS and APPENDIX have not been reproduced here. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS We are most grateful to the following for their help in the preparation of the Irish Red Data Book:- Christine Leon, CMC, Kew for writing the Preface to this Red Data Book and for helpful discussions on the European aspects of rare plant conservation; Edwin Wymer, who designed the cover and who, as part of his contract duties in the Wildlife Service, organised the computer applications to the data in an efficient and thorough manner.

    Sites of Importance for Nature Conservation Wales Guidance (Pdf)

    Wildlife Sites Guidance Wales A Guide to Develop Local Wildlife Systems in Wales Wildlife Sites Guidance Wales A Guide to Develop Local Wildlife Systems in Wales Foreword The Welsh Assembly Government’s Environment Strategy for Wales, published in May 2006, pays tribute to the intrinsic value of biodiversity – ‘the variety of life on earth’. The Strategy acknowledges the role biodiversity plays, not only in many natural processes, but also in the direct and indirect economic, social, aesthetic, cultural and spiritual benefits that we derive from it. The Strategy also acknowledges that pressures brought about by our own actions and by other factors, such as climate change, have resulted in damage to the biodiversity of Wales and calls for a halt to this loss and for the implementation of measures to bring about a recovery. Local Wildlife Sites provide essential support between and around our internationally and nationally designated nature sites and thus aid our efforts to build a more resilient network for nature in Wales. The Wildlife Sites Guidance derives from the shared knowledge and experience of people and organisations throughout Wales and beyond and provides a common point of reference for the most effective selection of Local Wildlife Sites. I am grateful to the Wales Biodiversity Partnership for developing the Wildlife Sites Guidance. The contribution and co-operation of organisations and individuals across Wales are vital to achieving our biodiversity targets. I hope that you will find the Wildlife Sites Guidance a useful tool in the battle against biodiversity loss and that you will ensure that it is used to its full potential in order to derive maximum benefit for the vitally important and valuable nature in Wales.

    Environmental, Spatial and Temporal Drivers of Plant Community

    Environmental, spatial and temporal drivers of plant community composition in British forest habitat. Adam Robert Kimberley (B.Sc.) This thesis is submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirement for the award of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy August, 2015 Abstract Broadleaved forest habitat is important for a number of ecosystem functions and as a refuge for many rare plant species in human-modified landscapes. It is however, threatened by global change drivers such as deforestation and the associated fragmentation of remaining habitat areas, along with increased disturbance and exposure to nutrient inputs from surrounding intensive agriculture. This thesis uses a unique combination of data on plant species occurrence, local environmental conditions and forest spatial extent in order to investigate the ways in which species richness and functional diversity in forest communities are dependent upon local and landscape scale drivers, and to quantify the strength of these relationships. This provides novel understanding of the response of forest plants with different life history traits to the configuration and quality of available habitat, and therefore the way in which understorey assemblages are likely to alter over time following landscape change. Results highlight the importance of local environmental conditions within forest patches but also suggest that patch area and landscape connectivity have an important effect on the trait composition of communities. Preserving large, well connected areas of habitat is therefore likely to be key for the conservation of many species, particularly rarer forest specialists which often possess traits linked to low dispersal ability. Furthermore, there is evidence that species are slow to respond to changes in the spatial extent of habitat.

Ireland were contacted in January 2003 and asked whether they would like to participate in the Working Group to produce a new Red List. The core Working Group, from the first meeting held in February 2003, consisted of botanists in Britain who had a good working knowledge of the British and Irish flora and could commit their time and effort towards the two-year project. Other botanists who had expressed an interest but who had limited time available were consulted on an appropriate basis.
