This report forms part of a series of reconnaissance survey reports for the Protected Natural Areas Programme (PNAP) in the Northland Conservancy of the Department of Conservation. It describes the significant natural areas of the Manaia Ecological District (ED). Natural areas within the ED were surveyed by the Department of Conservation from 1997 to 1999, and subsequently by Wildland Consultants in September 2009. There has been no previous comprehensive survey and review of ecological information of this geographical area. Manaia is the smallest ecological district in the Northland Region, although its size is very much disproportionate to its rich biodiversity and number of habitat types. The Ecological District contains several relatively large and semi-contiguous natural areas, including Manaia Ridge Scenic Reserve and Surrounds and Bream Head Scenic Reserve and Surrounds, the latter of which is considered to be the finest example of coastal forest remaining in Northland. Approximately 52% of the natural areas identified within this report are formally protected, which equates to around 21.8% of the total extent of the Ecological District. Manaia Ecological District takes its name from the sacred maunga/ mountain Manaia, the eponymous ancestor of many Northland iwi including Ngäti Wai and Ngäti Kahu. The maunga/mountain Manaia also forms the southeastern boundary of Te Whare Tapu o Ngäpuhi/The Sacred House of Ngäpuhi. Bream Head Scenic Reserve and Surrounds is of special significance to iwi, as local Mäori regard the reserve’s mountain Te Whara as an ancestor and consider the whole area, including the tracks passing through, as wahi tapu. The area from Home Point to Smugglers Bay contains much evidence of Mäori occupation, including a defensive pä on Busby Head, many house terraces, food storage pits and numerous middens reflecting the wealth of food resources in Whangarei Harbour. Te Whara and Mt Manaia were once used as urupa or burial grounds. Local residents take a tremendous amount of pride in the natural assets and biodiversity present in Manaia Ecological District. As such, there has been a groundswell in community-based conservation, such as the many landcare groups coordinated by the Whangarei Heads Landcare Forum (WHLF) and the formation of the Bream Head Conservation Trust (BHCT). Both organisations work closely with the Department of Conservation. Feral pigs and goats have been removed from large natural areas of the Ecological District, while possums, feral cats and mustelids are kept at low densities over large areas. There is now a concerted effort to reduce rat numbers in high value areas. These initiatives, including work carried out as part of the Whangarei Kiwi Sanctuary and Operation Nest Egg, have seen North Island brown kiwi numbers in Manaia ED rise to approximately 300 individuals. In addition, much work has also been undertaken to control invasive weeds that threaten the natural areas of Northland. iii Success breeds success. Each milestone reached makes the people involved in local conservation more eager to achieve larger, far-reaching goals. For example, there are plans to transform Bream Head Scenic Reserve into a pest-free mainland island with the construction of a pest exclusion fence. If this became a reality, we would see species such as red-crowned kakariki, NI kaka and NI bellbird successfully breeding within the reserve, and the way would be paved for re-introductions of other threatened birds, lizards and invertebrates. Manaia Ecological District will continue to be a focus for restoration in the Northland Region. This mandate is being actioned by the Department of Conservation, local authorities, and community groups, each of whom are committed to the vision that has thus far allowed Manaia’s indigenous biodiversity to flourish in a way that is rarely seen on the mainland. Chris Jenkins Conservator Northland iv Abstract Manaia Ecological District (ED) covers c.6,444 ha, comprising most of the area known as the Whangarei Heads. It adjoins Whangarei ED to the west and Whangaruru ED to the north. In 1996 it was recognised as a distinct ecological district (Brook 1996). It is characterised by the spectacular formations of Bream Head and Mt. Manaia, which support some of the finest examples of coastal forest remaining in the North Island. Bream Head Scenic Reserve and Surrounds (Q07/074) and Manaia Ridge Scenic Reserve and Surrounds (Q07/069) are the most significant ecological features of Manaia ED. Proportionately, Manaia ED has the greatest length of coastline of any ecological district in Northland, with its sheltered, rocky bays to the west contrasting with the extensive dunelands and sandfields of Ocean Beach Recreation Reserve (Q07/075) in the east. Twenty-seven natural areas of ecological significance covering c.2,736 ha (42.5% of the ED) were identified from a field reconnaissance survey undertaken from 1997-1999, and in September 2009, together with information from existing databases and reports. These natural areas comprise forest (c.1,834.8 ha; 67%), shrubland (c.531.1 ha; 19%), duneland/ sandfield (c.251.6 ha; 9%), freshwater wetland (c.42.2 ha; 1.5%), rockland (c.32.3 ha; 1.2%), and estuarine habitat (c.9.8 ha; < 0.1%). Manaia ED contains a high diversity of indigenous flora and fauna, including one locally endemic plant species. There are high numbers of rare or threatened species in the ED, as well as rare ecosystem types. At present, ‘Threatened’ species include six plants, ten birds, three land snail taxa, one spider, three lizards, and one fish. ‘At Risk’ species include 27 plants, 17 birds, three land snail taxa (including one endemic species), three lizards, and three other terrestrial invertebrates, There are also a further 83 regionally significant species, which are considered rare or threatened in Northland (72 plant, five bird, five reptile, and one fish species). Manaia ED is a stronghold for North Island brown kiwi, with key areas of forest and shrubland forming part of the Whangarei Kiwi Sanctuary. Intensive predator trapping, translocations and advocacy by the Whangarei Heads Landcare Forum and Department of Conservation have seen the local kiwi population reach approximately 300 birds. The survival rate of wild-fledged kiwi chicks has increased, which together with call-count monitoring suggests that sustained predator control is working. Coastal forests and shrublands are the dominant vegetation types in Manaia ED, but natural communities on gumland soils and coastal dunes, which are nationally rare ecosystem types, are also an important feature. Freshwater wetlands are poorly represented in the ED, and most have become degraded following the invasion of weeds such as Mexican devil. Wetlands, however, provide habitat for several threatened bird species and form an important part of a greater habitat network outside the ED, particularly around the Taiharuru River system to the north. v Virtually all natural areas in Manaia ED are of significant conservation and ecological value. Due to the presence of endemic1 species, threatened species, rare ecosystem types, and outstanding examples of coastal forest, several natural areas of Manaia ED are of national ecological significance. Approximately 52% of the extent of natural areas identified are formally protected. Priorities for protection in Manaia ED include: the formal protection of (i) Taurikura Ridge Bush (Q07/073); (ii) coastal shrubland in the north-west of the ED (which includes The Nook); (iii) an excellent example of gumland located within McDonald Coastal Shrubland (Q07/068); (iv) important wetlands such as Kerr Road Swamp (Q07/076) and Harambee Road Swamp Q07/172); and (v) the protection of critical buffers and linkages. 1 Endemic to Manaia ED. vi CONTENTS Foreword iii Abstract v 1.

Broad-scale phylogenetic analyses of the angiosperms and of the Asteridae have failed to confidently resolve relationships among the major lineages of the campanulid Asteridae (i.e., the euasterid II of APG II, 2003). To address this problem we assembled presently available sequences for a core set of 50 taxa, representing the diver- sity of the four largest lineages (Apiales, Aquifoliales, Asterales, Dipsacales) as well as the smaller “unplaced” groups (e.g., Bruniaceae, Paracryphiaceae, Columelliaceae). We constructed four data matrices for phylogenetic analysis: a chloroplast coding matrix (atpB, matK, ndhF, rbcL), a chloroplast non-coding matrix (rps16 intron, trnT-F region, trnV-atpE IGS), a combined chloroplast dataset (all seven chloroplast regions), and a combined genome matrix (seven chloroplast regions plus 18S and 26S rDNA). Bayesian analyses of these datasets using mixed substitution models produced often well-resolved and supported trees.

A key to the four Alseuosmia species, synonymy, and a generalised distribution map are given. A. pusilla Col. is illustrated for the first time. INTRODUCTION judged to be frequent between only one pair of Allan Cunningham (1839) described eight species and the "excessive variability" lies mostly species of a new flowering plant genus Alseuosmia there. from material collected in the Bay of Islands region by Banks and Solander in 1769, by himself in 1826 and 1838, and by his brother Richard in 1833-4.

Consequently there are relatively few graded 1. Many bays are exposed to the Ocean and are thus generally unsuitable as overnight anchorages. They may however still be popular daytime anchorages with boats returning to more sheltered waters over night. Several bays have more than one name. Where we have identified them the extra names have been included but there are probably several bays whose alternative names have not been included. Every bay has been given a grading 1-3. These classifications are as follows-: 1 = Infrequently used as an anchorage either because of poor shelter, overcrowding moorings or better anchorages nearby. 2 = Popular anchorage – this could vary from a few boats in a small bay to many boats in a larger one. 3 = Strategic anchorage in that it is heavily relied on during bad weather – usually also popular in times of lighter winds of appropriate direction 3*= Strategic anchorage in that it is heavily relied on during bad weather but particularly popular as an anchorage.

The thesis may not be reproduced elsewhere without the permission of the Author. Breeding systems and reproduction of indigenous shrubs in fragmented ecosystems A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy III Plant Ecology at Massey University by Merilyn F Merrett .. � ... : -- �. � Massey University Palrnerston North, New Zealand 2006 Abstract Sixteen native shrub species with various breeding systems and pollination syndromes were investigated in geographically separated populations to determine breeding systems, reproductive success, population structure, and habitat characteristics. Of the sixteen species, seven are hermaphroditic, seven dioecious, and two gynodioecious. Two of the dioecious species are cryptically dioecious, producing what appear to be perfect, hermaphroditic flowers,but that functionas either male or female. One of the study species, Raukauaanomalus, was thought to be dioecious, but proved to be hermaphroditic. Teucridium parvifolium, was thought to be hermaphroditic, but some populations are gynodioecious. There was variation in self-compatibility among the fo ur AIseuosmia species; two are self-compatible and two are self-incompatible. Self­ incompatibility was consistent amongst individuals only in A. quercifolia at both study sites, whereas individuals in A. macrophylia ranged from highly self-incompatible to self-compatible amongst fo ur study sites. The remainder of the hermaphroditic study species are self-compatible. Five of the species appear to have dual pollination syndromes, e.g., bird-moth, wind-insect, wind-animal. High levels of pollen limitation were identified in three species at fo ur of the 34 study sites.
