Es de especial relevancia su patrimonio vegetal con una asociación vegetal única en Fuerteventura, Sarcocornietum perennis, y especies catalo- gadas por su singularidad para Canarias. Sin embargo, sufre una intensa degradación por la presión urbanística (Corralejo) y las amenazas generales que pesan sobre los humedales y zonas litorales turísticas. Por esta razón, se analizan y cartografían sus comunidades vegeta- les y se proponen medidas para una adecuada conservación y gestión ambiental. Palabras clave: Patrimonio vegetal, Sarcocornia perennis, Saladar de Bristol, Corralejo, Fuerteventura, Islas Canarias.

A thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Botany at Massey University New Zealand Peter Ronald van Essen 1992 Olearia colensoi in flower. Reproduced from a lithograph by Walter Fitch in Flora Novae-Zelandiae (J.D. Hooker 1852). Source: Alexander Turnbull Library in New Zealand Heritage, Paul Hamlyn Ltd ABSTRACT The Olearia colensoi (leatherwood or tupari) dominated southern Ruahine sub-alpine scrub is the largest continuous area of sub-alpine asteraceous scrub in New Zealand - the result of a lowered treeline due to climatic conditions characterised by high cloud cover, high rainfall, and high winds and the absence of high altitude Nothofagus species. Meteorological investigation of seven sites in the southern Ruahine found that altitude alone was the main environmental detenninant of climatic variation, particularly temperature regime. Temperatures varied between sites at a lapse rate of 0.61°C lOOm-1 while daily fluctuation patterns were uniform for all sites. Rainfall increased with altitude over the Range-at a rate of 3.8mm m-1. Cloud interception, unrecorded by standard rain gauges, adds significantly to total 'rainfall'. Vegetative phenology of Olearia colensoi is highly seasonal and regular with an annual growth flush from mid November to January. -

Towards an Updated Checklist of the Libyan Flora

H. GAWHARI1, 2, STEPHEN L.

E-mail: [email protected]. Abstract The Libyan flora was last documented in a series of volumes published between 1976 and 1989. Since then there has been a substantial realignment of family and generic boundaries and the discovery of many new species. The lack of an update or revision since 1989 means that the Libyan Flora is now out of date and requires a reassessment using modern approaches. Here we report initial efforts to provide an updated checklist covering 43 families out of the 150 in the published flora of Libya, including 138 genera and 411 species. Updating the circumscription of taxa to follow current classification results in 11 families (Coridaceae, Guttiferae, Leonticaceae, Theligonaceae, Tiliaceae, Sterculiaceae, Bombacaeae, Sparganiaceae, Globulariaceae, Asclepiadaceae and Illecebraceae) being included in other generally broader and less morphologically well-defined families (APG-IV, 2016). As a consequence, six new families: Hypericaceae, Adoxaceae, Lophiocarpaceae, Limeaceae, Gisekiaceae and Cleomaceae are now included in the Libyan Flora. -

Biodiversity Summary for NRM Regions Species List What is the summary for and where does it come from? This list has been produced by the Department of Sustainability, Environment, Water, Population and Communities (SEWPC) for the Natural Resource Management Spatial Information System. The list was produced using the AustralianAustralian Natural Natural Heritage Heritage Assessment Assessment Tool Tool (ANHAT), which analyses data from a range of plant and animal surveys and collections from across Australia to automatically generate a report for each NRM region. Data sources (Appendix 2) include national and state herbaria, museums, state governments, CSIRO, Birds Australia and a range of surveys conducted by or for DEWHA. For each family of plant and animal covered by ANHAT (Appendix 1), this document gives the number of species in the country and how many of them are found in the region. It also identifies species listed as Vulnerable, Critically Endangered, Endangered or Conservation Dependent under the EPBC Act. A biodiversity summary for this region is also available. For more information please see: www.environment.gov.au/heritage/anhat/index.html Limitations • ANHAT currently contains information on the distribution of over 30,000 Australian taxa. This includes all mammals, birds, reptiles, frogs and fish, 137 families of vascular plants (over 15,000 species) and a range of invertebrate groups. Groups notnot yet yet covered covered in inANHAT ANHAT are notnot included included in in the the list. list. • The data used come from authoritative sources, but they are not perfect. All species names have been confirmed as valid species names, but it is not possible to confirm all species locations. -

Their study presented a set of new fossils within the order, generated a chronogram for Geraniales and other rosid orders using fossil-based priors on five nodes, demonstrated an Eocene radiation of Geraniales (and other rosid orders), and argued for more recent (Pliocene–Pleistocene) and climate-linked diversification of genera in the five recognized families relative to previous studies. As a result of very young ages for the crown of Geraniales and other rosid orders, unusual relationships of Geraniales to other rosids, and apparent nucleotide substitution saturation of the two gene regions, we conducted a broad series of BEAST analyses that incorporated additional rosid fossil priors, used more accepted rosid ordinal -

One of every 10 flowering plant species is in the family Compositae. With ca. 24,000-30,000 species in 1600-1700 genera and a distribution that is global except for Antarctica, it is the most diverse of all plant families. Although clearly mouophyletic, there is a great deal of diversity among the members: habit varies from annual and perennial herbs to shrubs, vines, or trees, and species grow in nearly every type of habitat from lowland forests to the high alpine fell fields, though they are most common in open areas. Some are well-known weeds, but most species have restricted distributions, and members of this family are often important components of 'at risk' habitats as in the Cape Floral Kingdom or the Hawaiian Islands. The sub-familial classification and ideas about major patterns of evolution and diversification within the family remained largely unchanged from Beutham through Cronquist. Recently obtained data, both morphologi- cal and molecular, have allowed us to examine the distribution and evolution of the family in a way that was never before possible. -
