ATOLL RESEARCH BULLETIN NO. 392 THE FLORA OF NAURU RR THAMAN, F.R FOSBERG, EL MANNER AND D.C. HASSALL ISSUED BY NATIONAL MUSEUM OF NATURAL J!WTORY SMllTJ!WNIAN INSTlTUTION WASHINGTON, D.C, USA FEBRUARY 1994 DEDICATION We dedicate this Flora of Nauru to Joseph Detsimea Audoa, his family and the people of the Republic of Nauru who have had their precious island and its flora destroyed and degraded as a result of wars and exploitation beyond their control. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS The authors would like to acknowledge, in particular, the late Honorable Joseph Detsimea Audoa, the Minister of Health and Education at the time of the commencement of the study and later Minister of Justice in the Government of Nauru, who, because of his vision and commitment to the culture and environment of Nauru, initiated and provided the financial support for the study of the flora of Nauru. He was particularly concerned that the plants of Nauru and their cultural uses be recorded before such knowledge was lost. We also acknowledge Mr. Lisle Newby, the then Director of Education, who, along with Joe Audoa, were the main supporters of the project, and who provided valuable logistical support throughout. Special thanks are also given to our main local informants and assistants, the Reverend James Aingimea and the late Henry Michael Heine; and to Daphne Fotu, Jacob Gabwinare, Katarina Satto, Kenia Raidinen, Reynold Capelle, Eda Adam and Montiba Star, our main informants in relation to the cultural uses and Nauruan names of plants. Our thanks also go to the Honorable Lawrence Stephen, Minister of Education during part of the project; Obera Menke, Robert Kaierua, Leo Keke, Delilah Capelle, Eddie Borak, John Healy, Gary Bailey, Dennis and Ria Berdinner, Julie Olsson, Dennis Ketner, Sio Fotu, Pine Harrison, John Brechtefeld, Rene Harris, Porthos Bop, Jacob Aroi, Leon Thompson, Benjamin Morgan, Iosefa Elisala and Teaora Tabanou, all of whom contributed in some way to the success of the study.

Lose the Plot: Cost-Effective Survey of the Peak Range, Central Queensland
Lose the plot: cost-effective survey of the Peak Range, central Queensland. Don W. Butlera and Rod J. Fensham Queensland Herbarium, Environmental Protection Agency, Mt Coot-tha Botanic Gardens, Mt Coot-tha Road, Toowong, QLD, 4066 AUSTRALIA. aCorresponding author, email: [email protected] Abstract: The Peak Range (22˚ 28’ S; 147˚ 53’ E) is an archipelago of rocky peaks set in grassy basalt rolling-plains, east of Clermont in central Queensland. This report describes the flora and vegetation based on surveys of 26 peaks. The survey recorded all plant species encountered on traverses of distinct habitat zones, which included the ‘matrix’ adjacent to each peak. The method involved effort comparable to a general flora survey but provided sufficient information to also describe floristic association among peaks, broad habitat types, and contrast vegetation on the peaks with the surrounding landscape matrix. The flora of the Peak Range includes at least 507 native vascular plant species, representing 84 plant families. Exotic species are relatively few, with 36 species recorded, but can be quite prominent in some situations. The most abundant exotic plants are the grass Melinis repens and the forb Bidens bipinnata. Plant distribution patterns among peaks suggest three primary groups related to position within the range and geology. The Peak Range makes a substantial contribution to the botanical diversity of its region and harbours several endemic plants among a flora clearly distinct from that of the surrounding terrain. The distinctiveness of the range’s flora is due to two habitat components: dry rainforest patches reliant upon fire protection afforded by cliffs and scree, and; rocky summits and hillsides supporting xeric shrublands.

Purnululu National Park
World Heritage Scanned Nomination File Name: 1094.pdf UNESCO Region: ASIA AND THE PACIFIC __________________________________________________________________________________________________ SITE NAME: Purnululu National Park DATE OF INSCRIPTION: 5th July 2003 STATE PARTY: AUSTRALIA CRITERIA: N (i)(iii) DECISION OF THE WORLD HERITAGE COMMITTEE: Excerpt from the Report of the 27th Session of the World Heritage Committee Criterion (i): Earth’s history and geological features The claim to outstanding universal geological value is made for the Bungle Bungle Range. The Bungle Bungles are, by far, the most outstanding example of cone karst in sandstones anywhere in the world and owe their existence and uniqueness to several interacting geological, biological, erosional and climatic phenomena. The sandstone karst of PNP is of great scientific importance in demonstrating so clearly the process of cone karst formation on sandstone - a phenomenon recognised by geomorphologists only over the past 25 years and still incompletely understood, despite recently renewed interest and research. The Bungle Bungle Ranges of PNP also display to an exceptional degree evidence of geomorphic processes of dissolution, weathering and erosion in the evolution of landforms under a savannah climatic regime within an ancient, stable sedimentary landscape. IUCN considers that the nominated site meets this criterion. Criterion (iii): Superlative natural phenomena or natural beauty and aesthetic importance Although PNP has been widely known in Australia only during the past 20 years and it remains relatively inaccessible, it has become recognised internationally for its exceptional natural beauty. The prime scenic attraction is the extraordinary array of banded, beehive-shaped cone towers comprising the Bungle Bungle Range. These have become emblematic of the park and are internationally renowned among Australia’s natural attractions.

Ecology of Seed Germination for Broad-Acre Restoration of Native Vegetation on Cracking Clay Vertosols
Ecology of seed germination for broad-acre restoration of native vegetation on cracking clay vertosols UNIVERSITY OF NEW ENGLAND A Dissertation submitted by LORENA FABIOLA RUIZ TALONIA For the award of Doctor of Philosophy AUSTRALIA December 2016 Declaration I certify that the substance of this thesis has not already been submitted for any degree and is not currently being submitted for any other degree or qualification. I certify that any assistance received in preparing this thesis, and all sources used, have been acknowledged. ________________________ Lorena Fabiola Ruiz-Talonia December 2016 ii Abstract In Australia, substantial ecological restoration of farmland is undertaken in conjunction with community-based natural resource management agencies, with the objective of balancing agricultural land use and biodiversity conservation through revegetation with native species. Across the North-West Plains of New South Wales (NSW), both large-scale and small-scale restoration efforts are frequently required. However, fragmented agricultural landscapes, the lack of sufficient scientific information on the seed ecology of native species and the environmental conditions associated with the region’s vertosol soils are major challenges for revegetation. This thesis investigated germination traits in 73 plant species that are important components of endangered vegetation communities in north-western NSW to produce information useful for plant propagation and ecological restoration. In order to identify the optimum combination of environmental conditions to maximise the percentage and rate of germination in 14 Eucalyptus seedlots of ten species from north-western NSW, germination responses to seasonal temperature regimes and light were examined, and the relationship between these factors and seed size investigated.

Received: 25 September 2020; Accepted: 11 December 2020; Published: 16 December 2020 Abstract: The olive family, Oleaceae, is a group of woody plants comprising 28 genera and ca. 700 species, distributed on all continents (except Antarctica) in both temperate and tropical environments. It includes several genera of major economic and ecological importance such as olives, ash trees, jasmines, forsythias, osmanthuses, privets and lilacs. The natural history of the group is not completely understood yet, but its diversiﬁcation seems to be associated with polyploidisation events and the evolution of various reproductive and dispersal strategies. In addition, some taxonomical issues still need to be resolved, particularly in the paleopolyploid tribe Oleeae.
