Abstract Adiantum is a genus of ca. 200 species in the family Adiantaceae, distributed extensively across the world from cool temperate zones to hot tropical regions. A lot of Adiantum species have been used in traditional Chinese medicine to cure human and animal diseases including relief of internal heat or fever, enhancement of urination, removal of urinary calculus, and sundry other curative claims. Chemical studies have shown the presence of various classes of compounds, the main ones being triterpenoids, flavonoids, phenyl propanoids, steroids, alicyclic acids, lipids and long-chain compounds. The extract of this genus as well as pure compounds isolated from it have been demonstrated to possess multiple pharmacological activities such as analgesic, antinociceptive, anti-implantation, and antimicrobial activities. In this review, we have addressed the phytochemistry and pharmacological activities of the Adiantum species in order to collate existing information on this plant as well as highlight its multi-activity properties as a medicinal agent. Keywords: Adiantum species, Adiantaceae, Phytochemical constituents, Pharmacological activities.

Another year draws rapidily to an end and its time to remind members that fees fall due in January for the 1389 year. It is perhaps timely too to reflect on our Group's activities and to make a plea for more contributions from members, on this occasion not in a direct financial sense. There is benefit for most of us in knowing morer%' about the practicalities of propagating and cultivating our native ferns. All members have experienced successes and failures, please wr' so those experiences can be passed on to others through this Newsletter. Later in this issue there is a request -directed to members wha bought ferns at the recent Wildflower Exhibition iH Sydney ta report the results achieved. If you purchased ferns bcught-in at the time of the Exhibition we would greatly appreciate your help. This issue we welcome a new member-Ian Higgfins from Victoria.

Rapid Assessment of the Need for a Detailed Pest Risk Analysis for Musotima Nitidalis
Rapid assessment of the need for a detailed Pest Risk Analysis for Musotima nitidalis Disclaimer: This document provides a rapid assessment of the risks posed by the pest to the UK in order to assist Risk Managers decide on a response to a new or revised pest threat. It does not constitute a detailed Pest Risk Analysis (PRA) but includes advice on whether it would be helpful to develop such a PRA and, if so, whether the PRA area should be the UK or the EU and whether to use the UK or the EPPO PRA scheme. STAGE 1: INITIATION 1.What is the name of the pest? Musotima nitidalis (Walker, [1866]) Crambidae: Musotiminae Synonym: Diathaustra timaralis No common English name: this is a small moth that feeds on ferns 2. What is the pest’s status in the EC Plant Health Directive (Council Directive 2000/29/EC1) and in the lists of EPPO2? The pest is not listed in the EC Plant Health Directive and is not recommended for regulation as a quarantine pest by EPPO, nor is it on the EPPO Alert List. 3. What is the reason for the rapid assessment? This moth is a pest of ferns. It was first trapped in the UK in Hampshire by amateur moth recorders in 2009 and it is likely that it entered the UK in association with tree ferns. After the first finding it was agreed that no action should be taken, but to keep a look out for further interceptions. This rapid assessment was initiated following the second finding, in October 2011 in West Sussex, to help inform the decision on whether statutory action is justified against future interceptions.

Make Not Only Macroscopic Studies, but Also Meticulous Enlargements
- 612 - iii. Artists Some amateur enthusiasts were famed more for their drawings than for their collections of plants. Those First Fleeters and other early settlers who shared Captain John Hunters "pretty turn for 315 drawing" were worthily succeeded. Luch of the later botanical art was inspired by the same old motives. Some were simply moved "by the 316 sight of plants with quaint and beautiful characteristics" to paint them for personal pleasure, or for the pleasure and information of friends 317 ; others sketched, painted or photographed plants because they were commissioned to do so or because such work came into their professional ambit; some were moved by purely scientific motives to make not only macroscopic studies, but also meticulous enlargements of dissections to indicate previously unknown morphological characteristics 318 However motivated in hobby or profession, the preparation of faithful delineations of plants had the scientifically significant effects of concentrating the observational skill of the artists themselves, and of developing botanical awareness in others. vhen an artists work was published his contribution to science was immeasurably greater, but the 315 Surgeon John Valites term for Hunters artistic skill. See Thesis I,-)p.94-95. For the botanical art of John Hunter, George Raper, Henry Brewer, the "Port Jackson Painter", Thomas Watling, Ferdinand Bauer and John William Lewin, see Thesis I, Chapter VI. 316 Thesis I,p.92, 317 It is interesting to note that during the 1040s, "Mrs. Jones" of 10 OConnell Street, Sydney, undertook to make and send to England "wax replicas of Telopea speciosissima, Rock Lily, etc. from £4-4-0 for collections".

Screening for Heavy Metal Tolerance in Common Australian Fern Species*
Chapter 2: Screening for heavy metal tolerant fern species 2 Screening for heavy metal tolerance in common Australian fern species * ABSTRACT The effects of cadmium (Cd), chromium (Cr), copper (Cu), nickel (Ni), lead (Pb) and zinc (Zn) on the growth and uptake of 10 fern species was investigated under a controlled environment in order to evaluate their suitability for phytoremediation. Fern species included Adiantum aethiopicum, Blechnum cartilagineum, Blechnum nudum, Calochlaena dubia, Dennstaedtia davallioides, Doodia aspera, Hypolepis muelleri, Nephrolepis cordifolia, Pellaea falcata and the arsenic (As) hyperaccumulating Pteris vittata . Ferns were exposed to four levels of heavy metals at concentrations of 0, 50, 100 and 500 mg kg –1 for a period of 20 weeks. In general, heavy metal translocation was limited, with the majority of heavy metals held in roots, suggesting an exclusion mechanism as part of the ferns’ tolerance to the applied heavy metals. Similar heavy metal-accumulation patterns were observed for all species in that accumulation generally increased with increasing levels of heavy metals applied. In most cases a sharp increase was observed between 100 and 500 mg kg –1 treatment levels, suggesting a breakdown in tolerance mechanisms and unrestricted heavy metals transport. This was corroborated by enhanced visual toxicity symptoms and a reduction in survival rates of ferns when exposed to 500 mg kg –1 treatment levels; and to a lesser extent 100 mg kg–1 treatment levels. Nephrolepis cordifolia and H. muelleri were identified as possible candidates in phytostabilisation of Cu-, Pb-, Ni- or Zn-contaminated soils; similarly D. davallioides appeared favourable for use in phytostabilisation of Cu- and Zn- contaminated soils.

Author for correspondence: Layne Huiet, [email protected] DOI https://doi.org/10.12705/673.3 Abstract Adiantum is among the most distinctive and easily recognized leptosporangiate fern genera. Despite encompassing an astonishing range of leaf complexity, all species of Adiantum share a unique character state not observed in other ferns: sporan- gia borne directly on the reflexed leaf margin or “false indusium” (pseudoindusium). The over 200 species of Adiantum span six continents and are nearly all terrestrial. Here, we present one of the most comprehensive phylogenies for any large (200+ spp.) monophyletic, subcosmopolitan genus of ferns to date. We build upon previous datasets, providing new data from four plastid markers (rbcL, atpA, rpoA, chlN) for 146 taxa.

It is also the time when all our planning and work for the Duncan Baxter Treasurer planting season is coming to fruition. Have we predicted what will be Ian Morrish Minute Secretary ordered this season? Have we managed to find and collect seed that we need? Has the seed that we planted actually germinated? When the seedlings were pricked out, did they survive the transfer and continue General Committee to grow? Have the plants had enough watering and nutrients and light Bernie Heinze to grow and develop? It certainly is a huge job and could not happen Stephen Kinniburgh without the input from our band of enthusiastic volunteers. Ian Morrish Carol Wind So we are now very busy packing orders for Yarra Ranges Council, Jean Gray Maroondah Council and Melbourne Water stream frontage customers as well as all the other customers who need plants for developments Nursery Supervisors or special plantings. We hope that by the end of the month we have a Jamin Walker & Claire Pertile bit more space in the nursery as most of our plants will have gone to Admin Clerk Carolyn Cusworth good homes and then the planning for 2018 begins!
