The Heywood and Humphries 1977; Bremer and Humphries main concentrations of members of Anthemideae are in 1993), with Cotula and Ursinia being included in the tribe Central Asia, the Mediterranean region, and southern despite extensive debate (Bentham 1873; Robinson and Africa.

North and South Islands. In the North Island it is only known from the south western coastline at one site near Titahi Bay. In the South Island it is known from two sites, one at the Rai Valley, Marlborough and the other near Mount Pleasant, in the Port Hills, near Christchurch, Canterbury. HABITAT The habitat of L. nana varies from forest to coastal and montane cliff-top grassland, but common features are the need for disturbance patches, shelter, and supply of moisture. The species appears to have adopted a strategy of constant colonisation of small patches of bare ground and so occupies a highly dynamic and changing micro- habitat. FEATURES Diminutive, much-branched, monoecious, perennial herb forming small, diffuse patches. Rhizomes at soil surface, slender, 0.5 mm diam., green, sparsely pilose hairy. Leaves 1-several at apex, mostly distant. Leaves 1-pinnatifid, 4-20 x 0.2-0.4 mm; blade 0.3-15 mm, obovate to narrow-obovate, membranous, green usually without brown pigmentation, glabrous or sparsely pilose hairy, pinnae 6-10 pairs,distal ones close-set or overlapping, proximal ones distant; teeth 0-3 on distal margins of proximal pinnae.

  • THE VEGETATION of SUBANTARCTIC CAMPBELL ISLAND ______Summary: the Vegetation of Campbell Island and Its Offshore Islets Was Sampled Quantitatively at 140 Sites
    COLIN D. MEURK, M.N. FOGGO1 and J. BASTOW WILSON2 123 Landcare Research - Manaaki Whenua, PO Box 69, Lincoln, New Zealand. 1. Department of Science, Central Institute of Technology, Private Bag 39807, Wellington, New Zealand. 2. Botany Department, University of Otago, PO Box 56, Dunedin, New Zealand. THE VEGETATION OF SUBANTARCTIC CAMPBELL ISLAND __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Summary: The vegetation of Campbell Island and its offshore islets was sampled quantitatively at 140 sites. Data from the 134 sites with more than one vascular plant species were subjected to multivariate analysis. Out of a total of 140 indigenous and widespread adventive species known from the island group, 124 vascular species were recorded; 85 non-vascular cryptogams or species aggregates play a major role in the vegetation. Up to 19 factors of the physical environment were recorded or derived for each site. Agglomerative cluster analysis of the vegetation data was used to identify 21 plant communities. These (together with cryptogam associations) include: maritime crusts, turfs, megaherbfields, tussock grasslands, and shrublands; mid-elevation swamps, flushes, bogs, tussock grasslands, shrublands, dwarf forests, and induced meadows; and upland tundra-like tussock grasslands, tall and short turf-herbfields, bogs, flushes, rock-ledge herbfields, and fellfields. Axis 1 of the DCA ordination is largely a soil gradient related to the eutrophying impact of marine spray, sea mammals and birds, and nutrient flushing. Axis 2 is an altitudinal (or thermal) gradient. Axis 3 is related to soil reaction and to different kinds of animal influence on vegetation stature and species richness, and Axis 4 also appears to have fertility and animal associations.

  • Classification, Diversity, and Distribution of Chilean Asteraceae
    Diversity and Distributions, (Diversity Distrib.) (2007) 13, 818–828 Blackwell Publishing Ltd BIODIVERSITY Classification, diversity, and distribution RESEARCH of Chilean Asteraceae: implications for biogeography and conservation Andrés Moreira-Muñoz1 and Mélica Muñoz-Schick2* 1Geographical Institute, University ABSTRACT Erlangen-Nürnberg, Kochstr. 4/4, 91054 This paper provides a synopsis of the Chilean Asteraceae genera according to the Erlangen, Germany, 2Museo Nacional de most recent classification. Asteraceae is the richest family within the native Chilean Historia Natural, Casilla 787, Santiago, Chile flora, with a total of 121 genera and c. 863 species, currently classified in 18 tribes. The genera are distributed along the whole latitudinal gradient in Chile, with a centre of richness at 33°–34° S. Almost one-third of the genera show small to medium-small ranges of distribution, while two-thirds have medium-large to large latitudinal ranges of distribution. Of the 115 mainland genera, 46% have their main distribution in the central Mediterranean zone between 27°–37° S. Also of the mainland genera, 53% occupy both coastal and Andean environments, while 33% can be considered as strictly Andean and 20% as strictly coastal genera. The biogeographical analysis of relationships allows the distinction of several floristic elements and generalized tracks: the most marked floristic element is the Neotropical, followed by the anti- tropical and the endemic element. The biogeographical analysis provides important insights into the origin and evolution of the Chilean Asteraceae flora. The presence of many localized and endemic taxa has direct conservation implications.
