  • Botanical Composition and Species Diversity of Arid and Desert Rangelands in Tataouine, Tunisia
    land Article Botanical Composition and Species Diversity of Arid and Desert Rangelands in Tataouine, Tunisia Mouldi Gamoun and Mounir Louhaichi * International Center for Agricultural Research in the Dry Areas (ICARDA), 2049 Ariana, Tunisia; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +216-7175-2099 Abstract: Natural rangelands occupy about 5.5 million hectares of Tunisia’s landmass, and 38% of this area is in Tataouine governorate. Although efforts towards natural restoration are increasing rapidly as a result of restoration projects, the area of degraded rangelands has continued to expand and the severity of desertification has continued to intensify. Any damage caused by disturbances, such as grazing and recurrent drought, may be masked by a return of favorable rainfall conditions. In this work, conducted during March 2018, we surveyed the botanical composition and species diversity of natural rangelands in Tataouine in southern Tunisia. The flora comprised about 279 species belonging to 58 families, with 54% annuals and 46% perennials. The Asteraceae family had the greatest richness of species, followed by Poaceae, Fabaceae, Amaranthaceae, Brassicaceae, Boraginaceae, Caryophyllaceae, Lamiaceae, Apiaceae, and Cistaceae. Therophytes made the highest contribution, followed by chamaephytes and hemicryptophytes. Of all these species, 40% were palatable to highly palatable and more than 13% are used in both traditional and modern medicine. Citation: Gamoun, M.; Louhaichi, M.

  • Notes from Grasses Workshop
    NATIVE GRASSES OF THE MELBOURNE AREA WORKSHOP AT BRIMBANK PARK March 25, 1988 For the Melbourne and Metropolitan Board of Works By Paget and Shim m en Bushland Seeds (14 Seascape Close, FTG 3156. PH:758.5416) INTRODUCTION: Native Grasses covers a wide range of grass species, of wkich there are . species suital~le for a variety of uses, induding erosion control, lawns, parklands, coastal sand dune stabilization, and low fire-hazard plantings. Most grasslands in Victoria are now exotic pastures, co m posed of grasses which have been bred for high l~iomass product5on so they produce Large a mounts of feed for stock, and these grasses are usually winter-growing and die-back severely over sum m er. These sa m e grasses do not necessarily have the rn ost desired characteristics for those orher uses. In lawns, for example, high biomass production means regular mowing, and growing in winter m cans they browning off during summer. Many of our native grasses are not as vigorous and grow over sum mcr, so do not grow so fast as to require constant mowing, and do not brown off over summer. ATTRIBUTES: The above introduction is a broad generalization, and it is important Lo study the charactemcs of each grass species to determine both its suitabtkity for any use, and the manage rn cnt it: requires. The most important attribute to contider is that of the grass's growth period. The table below ouflines the growth periods of the major native grass species: COMMON NAME BOTANICAL NAME GROWS COMMON WHEAT-GRASS A gropyron scabru m Winter COMMON BLOWN GRASS

  • Traditional Artifacts from Bena Grass [Chrysopogon Zizanioides (L.) Roberty] (Poaceae) in Jajpur District of Odisha, India

The field survey was conducted during the year 2010-2012 to access the present status of this unique plant based craft as well as the condition of the artisans involved in this craft making. Data were collected through interview with elderly artisans of the area of study. The result revealed that making artifacts from Bena is exclusively the hand work of female folk belonging to SC (Scheduled caste) and ST (Scheduled tribe) communities. Most of these artisans are either daily wage labourers or marginal farmers while making such craft is their secondary occupation. They collect the raw material, i.e. Bena stem from the nearby field, process it and make around two hundred varieties of attractive craft items both for traditional use in socio-religious rituals and as modern life style accessories. These artifacts are appreciated for their intricate design and glazing golden yellow colour. The existing conditions of this folk craft as well as the artisans were analysed.

While the weather didn’t always cooperate, we managed to have some good times and find a lot of interesting and rare plants. Here’s a break- down of the tours for 2013. Peggy McKercher Conservation Area Tour - May 25 The summer tour schedule started out with a tour to the Peggy McKercher Conservation Area on the outskirts of Saskatoon. This is an area in transition; it has recently been acquired by the Meewasin Valley Author- ity but had been a Catholic Church retreat for a number of years. As such, there was a mix of introduced and native plants, and signs of human use which will be remediated as the site is brought back to a more natural state.

Besides these characters another can be observed in South American species, namely tufts of hairs in a trans- verse line across the back of the lemma just beneath the Insertion of the cen- tral awn. Species, which exhibit this character, are, however, not confined to South America but occur also in the Easter-Island, in New Zealand, Austra- lia, Tasmania, Indonesia and in the Himalayas. ZoTOV has based his genus Notodanthonia on species from New Zealand. It remains to be decided whether or not this genus should be retained. Only the study of the South American species can elucidate this problem. None of the groups mentioned so far occurs in southern Africa. None- theless, not fewer than 121 Danthonia species have been described from the- re. It goes without saying that many of these names are synonyms. More- over, over the years, quite a number of these species have been separated into different genera which have been recognized by most students of African Gramineae. These include well-known generic names such as Pentameris, Pentaschistis, Strehlochaete, Chaetohromus, Alloeochaete as well as Phacnan- thoecium. But, even so, 36 species remain in Danthonia as can be seen in C. E. Hubbard's treatment of this group in the Flora of Tropical Africa and in Miss Chippindall's cursory guide to South African grasses. In the following account these remaining species of Danthonia will be considered: The first 4 taxa described as Danthonia can be distinguished from typical Danthonia at a first glance by having a long pungent callus at the base of each floret.
