Synoptic Overview of Exotic Acacia, Senegalia and Vachellia (Caesalpinioideae, Mimosoid Clade, Fabaceae) in Egypt
plants Article Synoptic Overview of Exotic Acacia, Senegalia and Vachellia (Caesalpinioideae, Mimosoid Clade, Fabaceae) in Egypt Rania A. Hassan * and Rim S. Hamdy Botany and Microbiology Department, Faculty of Science, Cairo University, Giza 12613, Egypt; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Abstract: For the first time, an updated checklist of Acacia, Senegalia and Vachellia species in Egypt is provided, focusing on the exotic species. Taking into consideration the retypification of genus Acacia ratified at the Melbourne International Botanical Congress (IBC, 2011), a process of reclassification has taken place worldwide in recent years. The review of Acacia and its segregates in Egypt became necessary in light of the available information cited in classical works during the last century. In Egypt, various taxa formerly placed in Acacia s.l., have been transferred to Acacia s.s., Acaciella, Senegalia, Parasenegalia and Vachellia. The present study is a contribution towards clarifying the nomenclatural status of all recorded species of Acacia and its segregate genera. This study recorded 144 taxa (125 species and 19 infraspecific taxa). Only 14 taxa (four species and 10 infraspecific taxa) are indigenous to Egypt (included now under Senegalia and Vachellia). The other 130 taxa had been introduced to Egypt during the last century. Out of the 130 taxa, 79 taxa have been recorded in literature. The focus of this study is the remaining 51 exotic taxa that have been traced as living species in Egyptian gardens or as herbarium specimens in Egyptian herbaria. The studied exotic taxa are accommodated under Acacia s.s. (24 taxa), Senegalia (14 taxa) and Vachellia (13 taxa). -
Descriptions in the Literature of the Colour in Trees from Southwest Australia
Journal of the Royal Society of Western Australia, 90: 179–194, 2007 ‘Green above, paler below’: descriptions in the literature of the colour in trees from southwest Australia M J Grose Faculty of Architecture, Building and Planning, University of Melbourne, Parkville, Victoria, Australia 3052 [email protected] Manuscript received June 2007; accepted October 2007 Abstract This paper outlines descriptions of colour in the literature pertaining to the flora of the South- western Australian Floristic Region, comparing pre-settlement exploration by Dutch, French and English voyagers with modern general texts. It was found that colour has been and continues to be poorly described, preventing any analysis of the biological diversity of colour to enable comparison across or between floras or species. Forthcoming work on more accurate colour description using the Natural Color System of Sweden is foreshadowed. Keywords: Colour description, botanical history, south-western Australia Introduction Colour is an aspect of biological diversity not addressed previously, although with suburban This paper is a specific survey of how colour has been development and changes of species in suburban described in the literature and in early exploration in Australia the colours and textures of vegetation are south-western Australia. This study arose from questions changing. Yet the colours particular to Australia have regarding the changing colours of the landscape due to long been part of the national psyche, as much as the extensive urban development in south-western Western ‘emerald’ of Ireland and the ‘green and pleasant land’ of Australia, within a centre of world biodiversity. Perth, England. For the indigenous people of south-western Western Australia, has one of the fastest growing urban Australia, the region remains the land of the Rainbow sprawls in Australia and, while most studies or analyses Serpent - a Dreamtime spirit who brought the gift of of urban sprawl on the world scale refer to sprawl as colour to the world (Nannup, pers.comm.). -

Australian Plants Society South East NSW Group Newsletter 120 July 2016 Corymbia maculata Spotted Gum and Macrozamia communis Burrawang Contacts: President, Margaret Lynch, [email protected] Secretary, Michele Pymble, [email protected] Newsletter editor, John Knight, [email protected] Next Meeting th Saturday August 6 2016 10.30am at the home of Carolyn and Mark Noake Glendeuart, North of Moruya Grevilleas with Mark Noake The central focus of this activity to be held at the Glendeuart home and garden of Carolyn and Mark Noake will be local species of Grevillea. Their garden comprises three and a half acres of Australian plants in a setting inspired by open grassy woodlands. Those who attended a previous meeting at Glendeuart will notice significant developments including terraced landscaping and dry stone walling to accommodate a growing collection of Grevilleas and other Australian plants. Grevillea arenaria identifying features Photo by Mark Noake Australian Plant Society South East NSW Newsletter 120 July 2016 Page 1 An introductory talk will include a short tour of our Southeast Group’s website, showing how to easily access a wealth of information. Then follows a simple explanation of the plant features used by botanists when identifying Grevilleas, which will be illustrated with lots of images and no exams. Carolyn and Mark’s inspiration for growing Grevillea species as found in the wild and the fun to be had trying to protect rare and endangered plants will be discussed. Support will be sought on dealing with their inability to walk past a “different” plant in a nursery without purchasing it.
