The New Caledonian biodiversity hotspot contains many micro-hotspots that exhibit high plant micro- endemism, and that are facing different types and intensities of threats. The Belep archipelago, and especially Île Art, with 24 and 21 respective narrowly endemic species (1 Extinct,21Critically Endangered and 2 Endangered), should be considered as the most sensitive micro-hotspot of plant diversity in New Caledonia because of the high anthropogenic threat of fire. Nano-hotspots could also be defined for the low forest remnants of the southern and northern plateaus of Île Art. With an average rate of more than one new species described for New Caledonia each month since January 2000 and five new endemics for the Belep archipelago since 2009, the state of knowledge of the flora is steadily improving.

E-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT New Caledonia is a global biodiversity hotspot known for its metal hyperaccumulator plants. X-ray fluorescence technology (XRF) has enabled non-destructive and quantitative determination of elemental concentrations in herbarium specimens from the ultramafic flora of the island. Specimens belonging to six major hyperaccumulator families (Cunoniaceae, Phyllanthaceae, Salicaceae, Sapotaceae, Oncothecaceae and Violaceae) and one to four specimens per species of the remaining ultramafic taxa in the herbarium were measured. XRF scanning included a total of c. 11 200 specimens from 35 orders, 96 families, 281 genera and 1484 species (1620 taxa) and covered 88.5% of the ultramafic flora. The study revealed the existence of 99 nickel hyperaccumulator taxa (65 known previously), 74 manganese hyperaccumulator taxa (11 known previously), eight cobalt hyperaccumulator taxa (two known previously) and four zinc hyperaccumulator taxa (none known previously).

In order to understand the evolutionary effects of shifts between the tropics and extratropics, defined here as areas that do versus do not regularly experience freezing temperatures, we studied the biogeographic history and associated diversification patterns of Cunoniaceae. We mapped the distribution of all species in the family and combined this with a newly constructed phylogeny for the family. The family shows a long evolutionary association with both tropical and extratropical environments, the tropics house considerably greater species richness of Cunoniaceae. In- deed, both tropical and extratropical environments appear to have had a similar number of lineages until 12 Ma, after which time the number of lineages in tropical areas increased at a faster rate.

All names validly published in Argophyllum in this archipelago are discussed and lectotypified when necessary. A new species is described, Argophyllum riparium (The LSID for the name Argophyllum riparium is: 77216335-1) Pillon and Hequet sp. nov. Argophyllum grunowii and A. ellipticum are both species complexes in which several species previously recognized are included here as well. Seven species are recognized in New Caledonia: A. brevipetalum, A. ellipticum, A. grunowii, A. montanum, A. nitidum, A. riparium and A. vernicosum, all endemic. Leaf nickel content of A. riparium can exceed 1000 µg·g−1, which makes this species a nickel hyperaccumulator. Measurements with a handheld X-Ray Fluorescence (XRF) spectrometer confirmed that this was also the case for all other species from A. nitidum New Caledonia, except .

  • Some Observations on the Flora of New Caledonia* Mike Wilcox & Graeme Platt
    which although clearly extremely well-known now in terms of its cultivation and conservation requirements still poses seemingly intractable problems for phylogeneticists, with a multi-authored presentation showing that its position within the family remains unclear despite sequencing several genes across the group in an effort to provide resolution: is it more closely related to Agathis, to Araucaria, or equally to the two of them? A panel discussion allowed a num- ber of other questions about Agathis and Wollemia to be considered and also served as a chance to mark the recent, premature, death of T. C. Whitmore, the first and so far the last monographer of Agathis. With that, the highly success- ful first international symposium on the Araucariaceae finished, and partici- pants began to disperse, some heading home and some remaining for the post- conference tour of New Caledonia. ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I should like to thank the Council of the International Dendrology Society very much indeed for their financial support in helping me to travel to New Zealand for the field-tour and the conference: it would have been impossible for me to attend without their assistance. I also received additional funding from the UK’s Natural Environment Research Council under grant NER/S/A/2001/06066 and a travel award from Magdalen College, Oxford: I am extremely grateful to them all. I should also like to pay tribute to the organizers, Graeme Platt, Mike Wilcox and Clive Higgie, who despite their calm unflappability throughout the field tour and the conference must clearly have worked like slaves for months and years in advance for everything to have run so extraordinarily smoothly and to whom everybody who, like me, thoroughly enjoyed the entire week, owes a tremendous debt.

E-mail: [email protected] Abstract Host records on the weevil family Apionidae in New Caledonia are summarised, based on field observations in 2004–2010, and supplemented with dates of collecting freshly emerged adult specimens obtained from museum collec- tions worldwide. At the genus level, the following generalised host associations of the Apionidae have been documented: Rhadinocyba (only the Rh. singularis-species group), Megatracheloides and Himantapion with Hibbertia (Dilleniaceae); Discelapion, Thyridapion and Pterapion (s. str.) with Pycnandra, Planchonella, and Beccariella (Sapotaceae); Apterap- ion with Codia (Cunoniaceae); Hellerenius and Caledonapion with Hedycarya (Monimiaceae); Anapotapion with Piper and Macropiper (Piperaceae), Sterculapion with Commersonia (Malvaceae). Various species of Tetrapion were collected either from Codia (Cunoniaceae) or Guioa, Cupaniopsis ( Sapindaceae). Recorded associations of Diapion with Ficus (Moraceae), and Zimmius with Cryptocarya (Lauraceae) still need confirmation. Two generations per season are likely in members of at least Rhadinocyba, Megatracheloides, and Pterapion, judging from the extended period of appearance of teneral specimens. The subgenus Apterapion Wanat, 2001 of Pterapion Faust, 1889 is raised to genus rank, with type- species Apterapion hamiota (Wanat, 2001).

No matter how many targets botanic gardens are working on, they are making valuable contributions to the GSPC. 2010 has provided a clear goal and accelerated progress. For example, Target 1 has been particularly successful. However, the long-term sustainability of deliverables must also be considered. The enhanced dissemination and impact of the GSPC outcomes will depend on a closer collaboration between science, conservation and education practitioners within the botanic garden. As well as the GSPC, botanic gardens need to engage with other key global policies and strategies – such as the UNFCCC, Millennium Development Goals, World Heritage Convention and the Access and Benefit Sharing provisions of the CBD. We need to develop wider partnerships beyond the BG community. Botanic gardens need to continue sharing information and resources and develop informal and formal partnerships, promoting their successes and the benefits of working together.
