    Cunninghamia Date of Publication: February 2020 A journal of plant ecology for eastern Australia ISSN 0727- 9620 (print) • ISSN 2200 - 405X (Online) The Australian paintings of Marianne North, 1880–1881: landscapes ‘doomed shortly to disappear’ John Leslie Dowe Australian Tropical Herbarium, James Cook University, Smithfield, Qld 4878 AUSTRALIA. [email protected] Abstract: The 80 paintings of Australian flora, fauna and landscapes by English artist Marianne North (1830-1890), completed during her travels in 1880–1881, provide a record of the Australian environment rarely presented by artists at that time. In the words of her mentor Sir Joseph Dalton Hooker, director of Kew Gardens, North’s objective was to capture landscapes that were ‘doomed shortly to disappear before the axe and the forest fires, the plough and the flock, or the ever advancing settler or colonist’. In addition to her paintings, North wrote books recollecting her travels, in which she presented her observations and explained the relevance of her paintings, within the principles of a ‘Darwinian vision,’ and inevitable and rapid environmental change. By examining her paintings and writings together, North’s works provide a documented narrative of the state of the Australian environment in the late nineteenth- century, filtered through the themes of personal botanical discovery, colonial expansion and British imperialism.

However, which traits can be used to evaluate drought tolerance remain an open question. Here, we conducted a common-garden experiment on 37 shrub species originating from desert to humid regions. The correlations between plant traits and the native environmental conditions were studied. Leaf sizes and Huber values were significantly correlated with most climate variables of the shrubs’ origins. The osmotic potentials at full turgor (π100), turgor loss point (YTLP), and midday leaf water potential (Ymid) were significantly correlated with most climate variables of their origins. We proposed using leaf sizes, Huber values, and YTLP as predictors of drought tolerance across shrub species and shrub biomes.

  • Landcorp Denmark East Development Precinct Flora and Fauna Survey
    LandCorp Denmark East Development Precinct Flora and Fauna Survey October 2016 Executive summary Introduction Through the Royalties for Regions “Growing our South” initiative, the Shire of Denmark has received funding to provide a second crossing of the Denmark River, to upgrade approximately 6.5 km of local roads and to support the delivery of an industrial estate adjacent to McIntosh Road. GHD Pty Ltd (GHD) was commissioned by LandCorp to undertake a biological assessment of the project survey area. The purpose of the assessment was to identify and describe flora, vegetation and fauna within the survey area. The outcomes of the assessment will be used in the environmental assessment and approvals process and will identify the possible need for, and scope of, further field investigations will inform environmental impact assessment of the road upgrades. The survey area is approximately 68.5 ha in area and includes a broad area of land between Scotsdale Road and the Denmark River and the road reserve and adjacent land along East River Road and McIntosh Road between the Denmark Mt Barker Road and South Western Highway. A 200 m section north and south along the Denmark Mt Barker Road from East River Road was also surveyed. The biological assessment involved a desktop review and three separate field surveys, including a winter flora and fauna survey, spring flora and fauna survey and spring nocturnal fauna survey. Fauna surveys also included the use of movement sensitive cameras in key locations. Key biological aspects The key biological aspects and constraints identified for the survey area are summarised in the following table.

Department, Sciences College, El-Mergib University, Al-Khums, Libya. Abstract Drimia maritima outer scales of which are thin and papery, red or orange-brown. It is one of the plants that grow in North Africa and the Mediterranean (L) is a perennial plant, with fibrous roots proceeding from the base of a large, tunicate, nearly globular bulb, the Basin. The plant owns a large bulb which can be about 20 cm wide and weigh may reach to 1 kg, leaves are dark green in colour and used in treating diseases, combating agricultural pests, and killing rats to preserve crops. The plant has toxicity may lead to death leathery in texture, flowers are white and may reach 2 m in height, and approximately1.5 cm wide. From ancient time, this plant is when it is used excessively and without paying attention to the dosages needed for treatment, It is of great importance due to the fact that it contains many very effective biochemical composites such as Bufadienolides.. Keywords: Drimia maritima (L); Chemical Constituents; Toxicity; Bufadienolides Compounds Abbreviation Drimia genus includes ninety-nine species [3]. This species is also known by several common names, including squill, sea squill, sea D.

Whereas autumn and summer increase perennials to reach 100 % more than spring and winter wherein increase annuals species to attain 55 %, to display disappear biennial in autumn and summer seasons in all habitat except rocky habitat in autumn. Out of the surveyed, Kinds of Forbs gave 109 species followed shrubs by 38 species, Grass 26 species, Trees 6 species. Of the most dominant species was broad-leaved (Forbs) plant species found in the region. According to palatability 107 species were palatable and 72 species were unpalatable.

Dittrichia viscosa Drimia maritima bulbs and Dittrichia viscosa (D. viscosa) leaf extracts were here characterized by HPLC-PDA-ESI- Dermanyssus gallinae MS/MS, and their toxicity against D. gallinae was evaluated using contact methods. Twenty-nine compounds Phenolic compounds were identified in D. maritima extracts, with glucoscilliphaeoside derivatives (i.e., quercetin, kaempferol and Bufadienolides bufadienolides) as the major components. Twenty-four phenolic compounds, mainly caffeic acid derivatives, were detected in D. viscosa extracts. D. maritima extracts displayed a significantly higher (p < 0.05) acaricidal activity than D. viscosa extracts, with 100% of D. gallinae mortality at a concentration of 100 mg/mL following 24 h exposure.

In this work, we seek to evaluate the direct and delayed effects of the ethanol extracts of this plant on vinegar fly (Drosophila melanogaster), an excellent laboratory model. The treatment was carried out by ingestion on second-stage larvae (L2) and then we evaluated the impact of this treatment on mortality, development, sexual behaviour, on female's oviposition choice, fecundity, and fertility of adults. The results showed that mortality rates can reach 100% after 15 days of treatment as we recorded an acceleration of the flies' development. After treatment, we observed incomplete nuptial courtship and a significant decrease in eggs laid number and larvae number of the first generation treated. This study indicates that D. maritima ethanolic extract has a neurotoxic property, our results confirmed the presence of toxic secondary metabolites in the extract studied.

  • Southwest Australian Vegetation
    Plant Formations in the Southwest Australian BioProvince Peter Martin Rhind Southwest Australian Jarrah Forest Unlike most of the World’s hardwood forests this type of forest is almost exclusively dominated by a single species the Jarrah (Eucalyptus marginata), which can form almost pure stands in certain areas especially where laterite soils predominate. The only other commonly associated trees are Eucalyptus calophylla (marri), E. patens (blacknut) and E. wandoo (wandoo). Commonly associated under storey species include the strange Casuarine fraserana and various banksias (Proteaceae) such as Banksia grandis, B. menziesii and B. attenuata. However, in addition there are various arborescent monocots such as the endemic Dasypogon hookeri, Kingia australis and Xanthorrhoea gracilis (Xanthorrhoeaceae). The most common liana is the endemic Kennedia coccinea (Fabaceae) and, in fact, both lianas and creepers are common features of these forests. The shrub layer, unlike the canopy, is also rich in species with many endemics. The most common of these is Stirlingia latifolia (Proteaceae), while other species include Acacia alata, Adenanthos barbigerus, Conospermum glumaceum, Dryandra praemorsa, Grevillea willsoni, Hakea lissocarpha, Isopogon sphaerocephalus (Proteaceae), Andersonia axilliflora, Astroloma ciliatum (Epacridaceae), Anigozanthos preissii (Haemodoraceae), Chorizema dicksonii, Daviesia cordata, Gastrolobium villosum (Fabaceae), Darwinia carnea, Hypocalymma robustum (Myrtaceae), Hemiandra linearis (Lamiaceae), Hibbertia hypericoides
