  • Agathis Australis
    Mike Marden and Chris Phillips [email protected] KKauriauri Agathis australis INTRODUCTION AND METHODS Reasons for planting native trees include the enhancement of plant and animal biodiversity for conservation, establishment of a native cover on erosion-prone sites, improvement of water quality by revegetation of riparian areas and management for production of high quality timber. Signifi cant areas of the New Zealand landscape, both urban and rural, are being re-vegetated using native species. Many such plantings are on open sites where the aim is to quickly achieve canopy closure and often includes the planting of a mixture of shrubs and tree species concurrently. Previously, data have been presented showing the potential above- and below-ground growth performance of eleven native plant species considered typical early colonisers of bare ground, particularly in riparian areas (http://icm.landcareresearch.co.nz/research/land/Trial1results.asp). In this current series of posters we present data on the growth performance of six native conifer (kauri, rimu, totara, matai, miro, kahikatea) and two broadleaved hardwood (puriri, titoki) species most likely to succeed the early colonising species to become a major component in mature stands of indigenous forest (http://icm.landcareresearch.co.nz/research/land/Trial2.asp). Data on the potential above- and below-ground early growth performance of colonising shrubby species together with that of conifer and broadleaved species will help land managers and community groups involved in re-vegetation projects in deciding the plant spacing and species mix most appropriate for the scale of planting and best suited to site conditions. Data are from a trial established in 2006 to assess the relative growth performance of native conifer and broadleaved hardwood tree species.

RESUMO - Lamiaceae e Verbenaceae correspondem às principais famílias da ordem Lamiales distribuídas nas regiões tropicais e temperadas do mundo. Neste trabalho foram feitas análises citológicas de Aegiphila sellowiana Chamisso, Vitex montevidensis Chamisso e Citharexylum myrianthum Chamisso, coletadas em diferentes regiões da bacia do Rio Tibagi, Paraná, Brasil. Os resultados mostraram que A. sellowiana apresenta 2n = 42 cromossomos, maiores do que os de V. montevidensis (2n = 34) e os de C. myrianthum (2n = ca.104), esta com os menores. Porém, as três espécies apresentam núcleos interfásicos do tipo arreticulado a semi-reticulado e padrão de condensação profásico proximal, sem evidências de variação intraespecífi ca ou diferenças interespecífi cas. No entanto, nossos resultados indicam que, do ponto de vista citológico (número e tamanho dos cromossomos), indivíduos das três espécies podem ser identifi cados corretamente e assim, suas sementes serem utilizadas, com segurança, em programas de restauração ambiental na bacia do rio Tibagi. Palavras-chave: cromossomos, número, tamanho, núcleos interfásicos.

  • NOTES on AGATHIS AUSTRALIS. by C
    NOTES ON AGATHIS AUSTRALIS. By C. T. SANDO. Introduction.—Much has been published about our kauri (Agathis australis) and it is now generally recognised as one of the finest coniferous trees of the world. The New Zealand species is one of a genus of ten—the most important being— A. Palmerstoni ... (Queensland) A. microstachya ... (Queensland) A. robusta ... (Queensland and Philippine Islands) A. vitiensis * ... (Fiji) A. alba ... (Malaya, Sumatra, Java, Celebes, Borneo, and Philippine Islands) A. lanceolata ... (New Caledonia) A. macrophylla ... (Solomon Islands) The value of Agathis australis was first recognised before 1800 by which time a considerable trade in kauri spars had sprung up between Australia and New Zealand. Later, naval-store ships were sent out from England for cargoes and from that time on kauri has increased in value. Up till a short time ago it was used for building and interior furnishing, but now the limited supplies demand a price far too high for these purposes so that its present uses have been confined to carriage building, cabinet-making, and general joinery, vats, tubs, and other special purposes. Wanton waste has so depleted out kauri areas that now, more than ever it is forced upon us, the necessity of making very serious attempts at conservation of the remaining supplies and propagation of this tree for scenic purposes, and, if economic conditions warrant it, for timber production. Geographical, Climatic, and Edaphic Range.—Kauri occurs in the northern parts of the North Island except in the extreme northern peninsula. It is found from Ahipara and Mangonui in the north as far south as the Bay of Plenty on the East Coast and Kawhia Harbour on the west, i.e.

  • A Basis for the Management of New Zealand Kauri (Agathis Australis (D
    A BASIS FOR THE MANAGEMENT OF NEW ZEALAND KAURI (AGATHIS AUSTRALIS (D. DON) LINDL.) FOREST J. C. HALKETT* ABSTRACT The area of primeval kauri (Agathis australis (D.Don) Lindl.) forest has been substantially reduced. There now exists a significant second-crop resource. Kauri forests are important ecosystems which are valuable for timber production plus non-wood values and benefits. The management potential of kauri has been indicated by research. This and other considerations resulted in a revised kauri management policy being introduced in 1973. Sustained yield management is prescribed for timber production zones. This necessitates a knowledge of the ecological character­ istics and an appreciation of growth dynamics, stand structures and extent of the resource. The productivity of second-crop stands suggests that there exists the opportunity for increasing the present cut. , ^fil To preserve its biological features areas of kauri forests have been set aside in scientific reserves. Re-afforestation is primarily aimed at rehabilitating disturbed forest and silvicultural tending is designed to promote the growth of regenerating areas. Harvesting in mature stands has been suspended and for environmental, engineering and management reasons helicopter logging is practised in second-crop stands. The principal function of kauri management will continue to be to protect intrinsic forest values. However, it will also prescribe activities aimed at producing a small perpetual yield of timber. INTRODUCTION New Zealand kauri {Agathis australis (D.Don) Lindl.) is the southernmost species of the genus. The other 12 species of Agathis are concentrated in the tropics (Whitmore, 1979; Bowen and Whitmore, 1980). Before the colonisation of New Zealand by Europeans, in the early 19 th century, there was in the vicinity of 1.5 million hec- *New Zealand Forest Service, P.O.

  • Tri-Trophic Interactions of a Predator- Parasite-Host Assemblage in New Zealand
    Tri-trophic interactions of a predator- parasite-host assemblage in New Zealand BY KIRSTY JANE YULE A thesis submitted to Victoria University of Wellington in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Victoria University of Wellington (2016) 1 2 This thesis was conducted under the supervision of Associate Professor Kevin Burns (Primary Supervisor) Victoria University of Wellington, New Zealand 3 4 Abstract Parasites are ubiquitous and the antagonistic relationships between parasites and their hosts shape populations and ecosystems. However, our understanding of complex parasitic interactions is lacking. New Zealand’s largest endemic moth, Aenetus virescens (Lepidoptera: Hepialidae) is a long-lived arboreal parasite. Larvae grow to 100mm, living ~6 years in solitary tunnels in host trees. Larvae cover their tunnel entrance with silk and frass webbing, behind which they feed on host tree phloem. Webbing looks much like the tree background, potentially concealing larvae from predatory parrots who consume larvae by tearing wood from trees. Yet, the ecological and evolutionary relationships between the host tree, the parasitic larvae, and the avian predator remain unresolved. In this thesis, I use a system-based approach to investigate complex parasite-host interactions using A. virescens (hereafter “larvae”) as a model system. First, I investigate the mechanisms driving intraspecific parasite aggregation (Chapter 2). Overall, many hosts had few parasites and few hosts had many, with larvae consistently more abundant in larger hosts. I found no evidence for density- dependent competition as infrapopulation size had no effect on long-term larval growth. Host specificity, the number of species utilised from the larger pool available, reflects parasite niche breadth, risk of extinction and ability to colonise new locations.
