  • The New Zealand Rain Forest: a Comparison with Tropical Rain Forest! J
    The New Zealand Rain Forest: A Comparison with Tropical Rain Forest! J. W. DAWSON2 and B. V. SNEDDON2 ABSTRACT: The structure of and growth forms and habits exhibited by the New Zealand rain forest are described and compared with those of lowland tropical rain forest. Theories relating to the frequent regeneration failure of the forest dominants are outlined. The floristic affinities of the forest type are discussed and it is suggested that two main elements can be recognized-lowland tropical and montane tropical. It is concluded that the New Zealand rain forest is comparable to lowland tropical rain forest in structure and in range of special growth forms and habits. It chiefly differs in its lower stature, fewer species, and smaller leaves. The floristic similarity between the present forest and forest floras of the Tertiary in New Zealand suggest that the former may be a floristically reduced derivative of the latter. PART 1 OF THIS PAPER describes the structure The approximate number of species of seed and growth forms of the New Zealand rain plants in these forests is 240. From north to forest as exemplified by a forest in the far north. south there is an overall decrease in number of In Part 2, theories relating to the regeneration species. At about 38°S a number of species, of the dominant trees in the New Zealand rain mostly trees and shrubs, drop out or become forest generally are reviewed briefly, and their restricted to coastal sites, but it is not until about relevance to the situation in the study forest is 42°S, in the South Island, that many of the con­ considered.

  • Divaricating Plants in New Zealand in Relation to Moa Browsing
    GREENWOOD AND ATKINSON: DIYARICATING PLANTS AND MOA BROWSING 21 EVOLUTION OF DIVARICATING PLANTS IN NEW ZEALAND IN RELATION TO MOA BROWSING R. M. GREENWOOD' and I. A. E. ATKINSON' SUMMAR Y: New Zealand appears to be the only country where spineless, small-leaved divaricating plants make up nearly 10% of the woody flora. Climatic explanations have been advanced to &ccount for the origin of these divaricating plants. We suggest that the divergent and interl~ced branching, the woody exterior and the tough stems of these plants are adaptations evolved in response to browsing by moas. Together with a few species of much smaHer birds, moas were the only browsing vertebrates in New Zealand prior to the arrival of man. Thq divaricate habit is probably only one of several strategies evolved by plants in response to moa browsing. However, because fioas fed in a different way from mammals there is little to support the idea that introduced browsing mammals have merely replaced moas as aQ ecological factor in New Zealand.

Abstract Patterns of flammability across the vascular plant phylogeny, with special emphasis on the genus Dracophyllum by Xinglei Cui Fire has been part of the environment for the entire history of terrestrial plants and is a common disturbance agent in many ecosystems across the world. Fire has a significant role in influencing the structure, pattern and function of many ecosystems. Plant flammability, which is the ability of a plant to burn and sustain a flame, is an important driver of fire in terrestrial ecosystems and thus has a fundamental role in ecosystem dynamics and species evolution. However, the factors that have influenced the evolution of flammability remain unclear.

  • LIZARD GARDENS ‒ a Planting Guide
    LIZARD GARDENS – A Planting Guide New Zealand’s skinks and geckos have experienced chronic decline in the face of introduced pests, namely rats, pet cats, mice, hedgehogs and mustelids (stoats, ferrets and weasels). These days most peoples’ experience of lizards is via the one their cat brought in. This will continue to be the norm, unless we do something about it! The three main things you can do to help skinks and geckos in your backyard are to provide food, shelter and undertake pest control. Food: berries and nectar from fruiting and flowering native plants, insects and moisture i.e. lots of mulch. Shelter: rock piles, rotting logs, driftwood, stacks of timber, retaining walls, don’t throw out your prunings, dump them in a pile out of the way, skinks will thank you for it. Pest control: get trapping! Trapping rats and mice is a start but hedgehogs are actually a real problem for lizards in urban settings. Consider getting a DOC200 to trap those spiny pests. You can bury them under your native plants to provide an excellent source of fertiliser. Bait is effective for rodents in particular, and means you don’t have to deal with dead bodies. Also, keep your cat inside at night and consider not replacing it when it dies. To help you get started, this planting guide has been developed by gardeners and conservationists from the Kāpiti Coast. We live in a harsh coastal sand environment battered by salt spray, high wind and regular droughts. The following plant list has been developed with that in mind.

Vegetation flammability is a key bottom-up control on fire regimes and on the nature of individual fires. Although New Zealand (NZ) historically had low fire frequencies, anthropogenic fires have considerably impacted indigenous vegetation as humans used fire extensively to clear forests. Few studies of vegetation flammability have been undertaken in NZ and only one has compared the flammability of indigenous plants; this was a qualitative assessment derived from expert opinion. We addressed this knowledge gap by measuring the flammability of terminal shoots from a range of trees and shrubs found in NZ.
