  • Boigu Islands, Form the Northern Island Group of Torres Strait, Located Approximately 150 Km North of Thursday Island (See Figure 1)
    PROFILE FOR MANAGEMENT OF THE HABITATS AND RELATED ECOLOGICAL AND CULTURAL RESOURCE VALUES OF DAUAN ISLAND January 2013 Prepared by 3D Environmental for Torres Strait Regional Authority Land & Sea Management Unit Cover image: 3D Environmental (2013) EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The granite rock pile that forms Dauan, along with nearby Saibai and Boigu Islands, form the Northern Island Group of Torres Strait, located approximately 150 km north of Thursday Island (see Figure 1). Whilst Saibai and Boigu Island are extensions of the alluvial Fly Platform, geologically part of the Papua New Guinea mainland, Dauan is formed on continental basement rock which extends northward from Cape York Peninsula to Mabadauan Hill on the south-west coast of Papua New Guinea. A total of 14 vegetation communities, within ten broad vegetation groups and 14 regional ecosystems are recognised on the island. The total known flora of comprises 402 species (14 ferns, 388 angiosperms), with 317 native and 85 naturalised species. Nine plant species are considered threatened at the commonwealth and state levels and a further 25 species considered to have significance at a regional level. As for the majority of Torres Strait Islands there is a lack of systematic survey of fauna habitats on the island. A desktop review identified 135 fauna species that are reported to occur on Dauan. This can be compared with the 384 terrestrial fauna species that have been reported for the broader Torres Strait Island group. The Dauan fauna comprises 20 reptiles, 100 birds, 3 frogs and 12 mammals. Of these, one reptile, one bird and four mammal species are introduced.

Received on:17-09-2016; Revised on: 22-10-2016; Accepted on: 03-11-2016 ABSTRACT Background: To establish the pharmacognostic parameters using pharmacopoeial standards for correct identity of whole plant of Epaltes pygmaea DC. (Asteraceae). Methods: In pharmacognostic studies different types of evaluations were carried out that focus on taxonomy of the species, macro- and microscopic characters, physico-chemical parameters, fluorescence analysis, preliminary phytochemical screening and HPTLC finger print compared with marker compound stigmosterol. Results and discussion: The taxonomically it is a small annual herb, 8 to 20 cm high, minutely winged branched stem with aromatic roots, leaves are alternate, linear, lanceolate to oblong, flower pink, solitary, terminal, heterogamous. Microscopically the plant showed the presence of bi or tri-radiate wings of the stem, leaves microscopy indicated the presence of anisocytic type of stomata, thin walled with small spindle shaped cells of leaf epidermis, powder microscopy showed vessel elements with short tail, vertical chain of elongated parenchyma cells with prominent simple pits, large, spherical and spiny pollen grains. Plant extracts showed the presence of flavonoids, steroids, phenols, tannin and sugars. The standard marker stigmosterol detected with Rf 0.54 in alcohol extract has been confirmed by TLC/HPTLC finger print.

  • 1 Chapter 1: Introduction
    Introduction 1 1 Chapter 1: Introduction Little is known about the vegetation dynamics of ephemeral wetlands and floodplains and the role of the seed bank in these systems (with the exception of Brock and Rogers (1998) and Capon (2003; 2005)). The majority of our knowledge of wetland and floodplain ecosystems is focussed on well-watered temperate northern hemisphere systems and tropical systems (e.g. van der Valk 1981; Leck and Simpson 1987; Junk et al. 1989). In Australia, the majority of the research into wetlands and floodplains has been undertaken on seasonal wetlands (e.g. Britton and Brock 1994; Casanova and Brock 1999b; Nicol et al. 2003), rivers with seasonal flow regimes (e.g. Pettit and Froend 2001a; 2001b; Pettit et al. 2001) and the impact of altered flow regimes in the River Murray system (e.g. Walker et al. 1994; Nielsen and Chick 1997). This study provides an insight into the vegetation dynamics of a regulated ephemeral system (the Menindee Lakes) and the role of the seed bank plays in that system. 1.1 The Seed Bank The seed bank is defined as the reserves of viable seed present in and on the soil surface (Roberts 1981) and associated litter (Simpson et al. 1989), capable of replacing adult plants (Baker 1989). The size of the seed bank, the contribution made to it by the different species and patterns of seed distribution reflect the seed production mainly by the resident plant community; although, inputs of seed from distant sources may also contribute (Simpson et al. 1989). In addition, the seed bank contains not only seeds from the preceding year but may contain seeds from many previous years (Roberts 1981); especially species that form long-term persistent seed banks (Thompson and Grime 1979).
