Introduction. : My publication on the Bignoniaceae of New Guinea ) has been the prime cause to study this family for the whole Malayan region. So this study forms a parallel to the publications of the families worked out by the botanists at Buitenzorg, which are an attempt to constitute a modern review of the Malayan flora. That this a review of family was necessary may appear from short historical a survey. History. Since the publication of „De flora van Neder- landsch Indie” by Miguel 2), only 4 of the 5 Javanese 3 species have been discussed byKoorders and Va 1eton ); 4 Koorders ) gives only a short enumeration of the 5 Java- nese species, together with the cultivated ones of Java. 6 discussed the and Boerlage ) genera gave an account critical dis- of the species known then, but did not give a cussion of the species. 1) Nova-Guinea 14 (1927) 293-303. 2 ) De Flora van Nederlandsch Indie. 2 (1856) 750-9. 8 ) Bijdrage tot de boomsoorten van Java. 1 (1894) 64. 4) Excursionsflora fur Java. 3 (1912) 182. 6 585 ) Handleiding tot de kennis der flora van Ned.

As the and genera species were known only incompletely, the geographical distribution could not be indicated with any certainty and about the affinities was not known much either. Geographical distribution. The remarkable distribution of the and the genera species in Malayan region have made me study especially the affinities of these with those of the and with allied As surrounding countries genera. it appeared to me that the Bignoniaceae of the Malayan region sensu stricto, without Malacca, the Philippines and New Guinea, are so closely connected with those of the I have surrounding countries tried to treat a more or less phyto-geographical unit, which extends from Malacca to New Caledonia. With it became some genera necessary to the for the of the enlarge region understanding geogra- distribution of the phical genera or species, and so the reader will find some Chinese, Burmese and Indian species in some genera. The limits for a ..Flora Malesiana” will be difficult. Years H. 4 has very ago Zollinger ) given some critical remarks about the area used M 1. by i q u e Since affinities of the Miquel, Malayan flora are more closely studied by several Dutch botanists and by Ridley, Merrill, etc. It has appeared that Malacca, Sumatra, Banka, Billiton, Riouw and Borneo show many phyto- affinities, whereas geographical Java and the isles eastern of it do not belong so close to this unit.

The Moluccas show already signs of Australian influen- and New Guinea forms in ces, many respects an area containing a mixed Malayo-Australian flora. On the other hand this enormous island contains a mass of endemics, wich do not occur neither in Malaya nor in Australia and forms also a unit. New Caledonia, of which R. Schlec li- ter *) made a plant-geographical study, shows close affi- nities with Australia, just as one should expect, but con- tains a large endemic development like nearly all isolated, old isles. After this discussion one will with agree me that it is difficult to limit the Malayan region, though a political unit, in plant-geographical respect. For different families it will not be the same. For the Bignomaceae-genera I have used a very large area; whereas, however, within this area many genera are limited, it forms in for my opinion my aim a genetic- unit. Thus plant-geographical it is explained that for some genera e. g. Deplanchea, Oroxylum, Tecomanthe, Pan- dorea, Radermachera, Nyctocalos, the treatise has become a floristic-monographical revision, though perhaps incom- plete, due to lack of materials. An other that I have cause used such a large area, is because of the fact that whereas limited many genera are to this it would be of interest area, to make more general conclusions in connection with the geological theory of A. 8 and the Wegener ) genetic-plant-geographical ones x ) Pflanzen-geographische Gliederung der Insel Neu Caledonia.

The origin of the Bignoniaceae of New Caledonia must indeed be explained in connection with those of Australia and New endemic Guinea, though it possesses an develop- ment, no species being found elsewhere. This is a question of historical plant-geography.

  • Native Plants for Your Backyard
    U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service Native Plants for Your Backyard Native plants of the Southeastern United States are more diverse in number and kind than in most other countries, prized for their beauty worldwide. Our native plants are an integral part of a healthy ecosystem, providing the energy that sustains our forests and wildlife, including important pollinators and migratory birds. By “growing native” you can help support native wildlife. This helps sustain the natural connections that have developed between plants and animals over thousands of years. Consider turning your lawn into a native garden. You’ll help the local environment and often use less water and spend less time and money maintaining your yard if the plants are properly planted. The plants listed are appealing to many species of wildlife and will look attractive in your yard. To maximize your success with these plants, match the right plants with the right site conditions (soil, pH, sun, and moisture). Check out the resources on the back of this factsheet for assistance or contact your local extension office for soil testing and more information about these plants.

Leahyl Radermachera sinica (Hance) Hemsl., a member of the Bignoniaceae, occurs naturally in India, China, Java, the Celebes and the Phillipine Islands. This plant is a relatively new introduction to the foliage market in Florida and is used most commonly as indoor accent plants. Radermachera sinica is easy to grow and can be propagated by cuttings, marcottage and seed (1). SYMPTOMS: Few diseases are recorded on Radermachera sinica; however, Phytophthora parasitica Dastur, which has a wide host range, can cause a serious root and stem rot. It is also quite aggressive as a damping off disease of Radermachera seedlings. (DPI, Plant Pathology Files, UNPBL.). Phytophthora parasitica infects the young tender roots and stem tissue of seedlings resulting in their collapse and death. Overfertilization and poorly drained/overwatered media can play an important role in predisposing these plants to infection by Phytophthora. Older, more established Radermachera plants can also fall prey to this disease; however, symptoms tend to be less obvious at the initial onset of infection. Infected R. sinica plants eventually become unthrifty and chlorotic. Defoliation occurs as symptoms progress and eventually stems become necrotic. This gives infected plants an overall thin, flagged appearance. Fig. 1. Defoliation, col- lapsed foliage and blight- ed stems are symptoms ex- pressed by the infected Radermachera seedling on the left. (DPI Photo #87131 by Jeffrey W.

    ECOLOGY TECHNICAL REPORT - EMP FOR THE SW KAROO BASIN GAS EXPLORATION APPLICATION PROJECT 4.1.2 Biomes Biomes can be defined as the major communities of the world, classified according to their predominant vegetation and characterised by adaptations of organisms to that particular environment. The single most important factor inftuencing the biomes in South Africa is the weather and, more specifically, the rainfall (Low and Rebelo, 1998). Important factors to be taken into account with regard to the weather and its influence on the biomes of South Africa are: • The western parts of the country are much drier than the east; • Rainfall occurs in winter in the west, but in summer in most other regions; and • Temperatures in the mountains and on the Highveld are more extreme than along the coast. These different climatic zones give rise to different vegetation communities which result in the biomes of South Africa. These biomes range from the Forest biome, in the wetter eastern parts of the country, through the Grassland and Thicket biomes, in the higher and lower lyi ng temperate areas, to the succulent Karoo and Desert biomes in th e drier western parts of the country. It should however be noted that there is considerable overlap vegetation types within the different vegetation communities. The Western precinct coincides with three biomes namely (Figure 3): • Nama-Karoo; • Succulent Karoo; and • Fynbos (more specifically Renosterveld Fynbos) The vegetation biomes are described briefty below and in more detail in Appendix A. 4.1.2.1 Nama-Karoo The Nama Karoo Biome occurs on the central plateau of the western half of South Africa, at altitudes between 500 and 2000m, with most of the biome failing between 1000 and 1400m.
