    BES BULLETIN VOL 46:4 / DECEMBER 2015 inFOCUS Photo: Alan Crowden This Bulletin is going to press while the Editor is in Australia at the beginning of the austral summer, contemplating a return to the UK in time to attend the annual meeting in Scottish winter. To dispel a shiver here’s an image from an Ecological Society of Australia field trip from 2014. Palm Valley, about 120 km southwest of Alice Springs in the red centre of Australia, harbours a population of Red Cabbage Palms (Livistona mariae) which survive in this one valley some 850 km from the nearest specimens of the species, in Queensland. The rainforest palms found in the middle of a desert might be a relict of a Gondwana past, or, as Dave Bowman and colleagues have suggested, Aboriginal people might have transported them. But why to this valley and nowhere else? So naturally a truckload of ecologists bumped for a couple of hours along a hot dusty track to take a look.

Joint Nature Conservation Committee, Peterborough. © Joint Nature Conservation Committee 2018 Guidelines for the Selection of Biological SSSIs - Part 2: Chapter 12 Bryophytes (2018 revision, v1.0) Cover note This chapter updates and, along with Chapter 13 Lichens and Chapter 14 Non-lichenised fungi, replaces the previous Non-vascular plants SSSI Selection Guidelines chapter (Nature Conservancy Council 1992). It was prepared by Sam Bosanquet (Natural Resources Wales), Jonathan Cox (Natural England) and David Genney (Scottish Natural Heritage), and provides detailed guidance for use in selecting bryophyte sites throughout Great Britain to recommend for notification as SSSIs. It should be used in conjunction with Part 1 of the SSSI Selection Guidelines, as published in 2013 (Bainbridge et al 2013), which detail the overarching rationale, operational approach and criteria for selection of SSSIs. The main changes from the previous version of the chapter are: • only bryophytes (mosses, liverworts and hornworts) are considered; • assemblage scoring is based on ecologically coherent assemblages; • scores for Nationally Scarce species are constant across Britain; • two Atlantic assemblages have scoring systems that include non-Scarce Hyperoceanic species; • a criterion for selecting the largest population of Red List species in each of England, Scotland and Wales is included; and • discontinuation of the Schedule 8 species selection criterion.

Established in 1994, CEH is a multi-disciplinary environmental research organisation. The Biological Records Centre (BRC) is operated by CEH, and currently based at CEH Monks Wood. BRC is jointly funded by CEH and the Joint Nature Conservation Committee (www.jncc/gov.uk), the latter acting on behalf of the statutory conservation agencies in England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. CEH and JNCC support BRC as an important component of the National Biodiversity Network. BRC seeks to help naturalists and research biologists to co-ordinate their efforts in studying the occurrence of plants and animals in Britain and Ireland, and to make the results of these studies available to others.

Herbertus (Herbertaceae, Hepati- cae). — Ann. Bot. Fennici 41: 393–404. Herbertus aduncus (Dicks.) Gray subsp. aduncus and H. dicranus (Taylor ex Gottsche et al.) Trevis. are reported as new to Hunan Province of China. Descriptions and discussion on the extensive variability of the species, illustrations, and distribution maps are provided. Herbertus lonchobasis H.A. Mill. and H. wichurae Steph. are synonymized with H. dicranus. Herbertus aduncus subsp. aduncus is rare in Hunan and was not present in man-made habitats. Herbertus dicranus is rather rare, but in primeval sites it is moderately common. Herbertus aduncus subsp. aduncus is prefer- ably epilithic, while H. dicranus grows on many substrates, which partly explains the difference in their occurrence. In Hunan, both species grow both in warm temperate and orotemperate zones which is in accordance with their global distribution. Key words: habitat ecology, hepatics, Herbertus, Hunan, phytogeography, taxonomy This paper is a part of a series dealing with the China (Piippo 1990), but there are no earlier bryophyte flora of Hunan Province, China.
