Teresa Mulliken TRAFFIC International iii EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Forests, and forest products, are fundamental to the health and well-being of the vast majority of the world’s human population. They play a critical role in the livelihoods of local communities in and around forests and are a source of food, medicines, construction materials, fuel, ornamentation and even companionship, for example in the case of pets. Technological innovation, and specifically improvements in the global transport infrastructure, combined with human migration have served to increase the use and availability of forest products around the world. However, this use is not without a cost – the populations of many wild species have declined as a result of harvest for international trade, some to the point that entire species are threatened with extinction. In order to address international trade threats to wild species, governments established the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES). CITES entered into force in 1975, and has over 160 member governments (Parties). This report explores the role and impact of CITES on the trade in forest products and sustainable forest management throughout its 30-year history, with an emphasis on plant, and specifically

  • RESEARCH Patterns of Woody Plant Epiphytism on Tree Ferns in New
    BrockNew Zealand & Burns: Journal Woody of epiphytes Ecology (2021)of tree 45(1):ferns 3433 © 2021 New Zealand Ecological Society. 1 RESEARCH Patterns of woody plant epiphytism on tree ferns in New Zealand James M. R. Brock*1 and Bruce R. Burns1 1School of Biological Sciences, The University of Auckland, Private Bag 92019, Auckland, New Zealand *Author for correspondence (Email: [email protected]) Published online: 13 January 2021 Abstract: Tree fern trunks provide establishment surfaces and habitat for a range of plant taxa including many understorey shrubs and canopy trees. The importance of these habitats for augmenting forest biodiversity and woody plant regeneration processes has been the subject of conjecture but has not been robustly assessed. We undertook a latitudinal study of the woody epiphytes and hemiepiphytes of two species of tree ferns (Cyathea smithii, Dicksonia squarrosa) at seven sites throughout New Zealand to determine (1) compositional variation with survey area, host identity, and tree fern size, and (2) the frequency of woody epiphyte and hemiepiphyte occurrence, in particular that of mature individuals. We recorded 3441 individuals of 61 species of woody epiphyte and hemiepiphyte on 700 tree ferns across the seven survey areas. All were facultative or accidental, with many species only ever recorded as seedlings. Epiphyte composition varied latitudinally in response to regional species pools; only two species occurred as woody epiphytes at every survey area: Coprosma grandifolia and Schefflera digitata. Five woody epiphyte species exhibited an apparent host preference to one of the two tree fern species surveyed, and trunk diameter and height were strong predictors of woody epiphyte and hemiepiphyte richness and diversity.

Most of the 600 species (in seven families and 13 genera) are arbo- rescent, but considerable morphological variability exists, spanning the giant scaly tree ferns (Cyatheaceae), the low, erect plants (Plagiogy- riaceae), and the diminutive endemics of the Guayana Highlands (Hymenophyllopsidaceae). In this study, we investigate phylogenetic relationships within tree ferns based on analyses of four protein-coding, plastid loci (atpA, atpB, rbcL, and rps4). Our results reveal four well-supported clades, with genera of Dicksoniaceae (sensu Kubitzki, 1990) interspersed among them: (A) (Loxomataceae, (Culcita, Pla- giogyriaceae)), (B) (Calochlaena, (Dicksonia, Lophosoriaceae)), (C) Cibotium, and (D) Cyatheaceae, with Hymenophyllopsidaceae nested within. How these four groups are related to one other, to Thyrsopteris, or to Metaxyaceae is weakly supported. Our results show that Dicksoniaceae and Cyatheaceae, as currently recognised, are not monophyletic and new circumscriptions for these families are needed. © 2006 Elsevier Inc.

Wagner) n. snow, comb . nov ., and Cyclosorus pendens (D.D. Palmer) n. snow, comb . nov . families of flowering plants (angiosperms) in the Herbarium Pacificum of the Bishop museum presently are organized following a system developed by cronquist (1981). thousands of papers published in the intervening three decades have clarified many aspects of the classification of plants at all taxonomic levels. the sources of data for the changes have varied, but most studies have relied heavily on Dna sequence data. the field of systematics also has developed new methods for data analysis, includ - ing evolutionary models that can specify the probabilities associated with changes in Dna sequences at the base-pair level. these models are incorporated in software pro - grams that taxonomists use to infer the phylogenies (= evolutionary histories) on which classifications are based.

  • Molecular Studies on the New Zealand Tree Ferns
    MOLECULAR STUDIES ON THE NEW ZEALAND TREE FERNS Robbie Lewis A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Plant Biology at Massey University, Palmerston North, New Zealand July 2001 Copyright is owned by the Author of the thesis. Permission is given for a copy to be downloaded by an individual for the purpose of research and private study only. The thesis may not be reproduced elsewhere without the permission of the Author. Abstract Molecular phylogenetic studies have been performed on the New Zealand tree fern genera Alsophila, Dicksonia and Sphaeropteris, using DNA sequencing techniques and Amplified Fragment Length Polymorphism (AFLP). Three DNA sequence markers were used, two chloroplast: rbcL, trnL-trnF spacer, and one nuclear: 188. Using a combination of rbcL sequences obtained in this study and previously published sequences from GenBank an overall phylogeny for the tree fern clade is proposed. This phylogeny suggests that the currently recognised families may need revision. Phylogenetic analysis of molecular markers in Dicksonia suggests a three way genetic split within the genus, which corresponds, to three observed spore morphologies. AFLP studies on populations of Dicksonia lanata, which possesses two distinct growth forms, shows evidence of a weak genetic split, although probably not sufficient to warrant the separation of two species. Studies on the Cyatheaceae genera Alsophila and Sphaeropteris have confirmed observations on the evolution of the New Zealand species based on morphology, and have also suggested a heretofore unknown relationship between the South American fern genus Hymenophyllopsis and the Cyatheaceae.
