  • Annals of the History and Philosophy of Biology
    he name DGGTB (Deutsche Gesellschaft für Geschichte und Deutsche Gesellschaft für Theorie der Biologie; German Society for the History and Philosophy of BioT logy) refl ects recent history as well as German tradition. Geschichte und Theorie der Biologie The Society is a relatively late addition to a series of German societies of science and medicine that began with the “Deutsche Gesellschaft für Geschichte der Medizin und der Naturwissenschaften”, Annals of the History founded in 1910 by Leipzig University‘s Karl Sudhoff (1853-1938), who wrote: “We want to establish a ‘German’ society in order to gather Ger- and Philosophy of Biology man-speaking historians together in our special disciplines so that they form the core of an international society…”. Yet Sudhoff, at this Volume 17 (2012) time of burgeoning academic internationalism, was “quite willing” to accommodate the wishes of a number of founding members and formerly Jahrbuch für “drop the word German in the title of the Society and have it merge Geschichte und Theorie der Biologie with an international society”. The founding and naming of the Society at that time derived from a specifi c set of histori- cal circumstances, and the same was true some 80 years lat- er when in 1991, in the wake of German reunifi cation, the “Deutsche Gesellschaft für Geschichte und Theorie der Biologie” was founded. From the start, the Society has been committed to bringing stud- ies in the history and philosophy of biology to a wide audience, us- ing for this purpose its Jahrbuch für Geschichte und Theorie der Biologie.

  • Hunter-Central Rivers, New South Wales
    Biodiversity Summary for NRM Regions Guide to Users Background What is the summary for and where does it come from? This summary has been produced by the Department of Sustainability, Environment, Water, Population and Communities (SEWPC) for the Natural Resource Management Spatial Information System. It highlights important elements of the biodiversity of the region in two ways: • Listing species which may be significant for management because they are found only in the region, mainly in the region, or they have a conservation status such as endangered or vulnerable. • Comparing the region to other parts of Australia in terms of the composition and distribution of its species, to suggest components of its biodiversity which may be nationally significant. The summary was produced using the Australian 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. 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. The list of families covered in ANHAT is shown in Appendix 1. Groups notnot yet yet covered covered in inANHAT ANHAT are are not not included included in the in the summary. • The data used for this summary come from authoritative sources, but they are not perfect.

I have included as part of the thesis in Chapter 2 a statement clearly outlining the extent of collaboration with whom and under what auspices. Stephen A. J. Bell Preface “The vegetated landscape …. on first appearance presents a bewildering display of living matter, a higgledy-piggledy mass of trunks, leaves, branches, shrubs and grasses seemingly without form. The more observant may notice that the higgledy-piggledy mass varies from one place to another, that in some places there are trees as tall as large buildings while in other places there are no trees at all …. By the application of a systematic approach to viewing vegetation the bewildering display of plant life can take on new meaning thus altering one’s perception of what is being seen .… Suddenly the jumble of plant life reveals structures and beauties probably hitherto unseen”.

Seed Science and Technology, 47, 1, 107-112. https://doi.org/10.15258/sst.2019.47.1.12 Research Note The effect of the endocarp, heat-shock and short-term storage on the germination of Persoonia hirsuta (Proteaceae) seeds Nathan J. Emery* and Catherine A. Offord The Australian PlantBank, the Royal Botanic Gardens and Domain Trust, the Australian Botanic Garden Mount Annan, NSW 2567 Australia * Author for correspondence (E-mail: [email protected]) (Submitted November 2018; Accepted February 2019; Published online April 2019) Abstract Persoonia are Proteaceous shrubs or small trees that have a woody endocarp as part of the dispersal unit. Seeds with this structure are often difficult to germinate. The endangered Persoonia hirsuta (hairy geebung) is a high- interest plant species for which no previous seed biology research has been conducted. In the present study we investigated the seed germination response to heat and short-term ex situ storage at low and room temperature. The effect of pre- and post-storage endocarp removal on germination was also examined. Germination success was significantly reduced when the endocarp was removed prior to storage due to increased microbial contamination coming from within the seeds. There was no significant effect of heat-shock on germination. Based on these findings, it is recommended that the endocarp be retained when storing or direct-sowing P. hirsuta seeds to enhance the likelihood of producing viable seedlings. Keywords: germination, hairy geebung, microbial contamination, Proteaceae, pyrene, seed biology Experimental and discussion A Persoonia fruit is a drupe which has an outer fleshy mesocarp and leathery pericarp layers, and a hard, woody endocarp within that encapsulates either one or two embryos that are surrounded by a thin, papery testa.

  • Heinrich Christian Funck Und Seine Pilzsammlungen (I)
    Heinrich Christian Funck und seine Pilzsammlungen (I) von Eduard Hertel Zusammenfassung Mit dem Namen „Heinrich Christian Funck“ verbinden wir in erster Linie Moose. Doch war der Gefreeser Apotheker ein vielseitiger Naturwissenschaftler und auch als Mykologe tätig. In seinen „Cryptogamischen Gewächsen des Fichtelgebirg’s“ (1800–1838) veröffentlichte er neben Farnpflanzen, Moosen und Flechten über 100 meist epiphytisch wachsende Kleinpilze aus dieser Region. In diesem Zusammenhang ist der Briefwechsel zwischen ihm und Henrik Christian Persoon von Bedeutung. Es handelt sich dabei um 29 Dokumente aus der Hand Persoons, die einen Zeitraum von über 15 Jahren abdecken. In ihnen geht es anfangs um Pilze und Flechten, die Funck zur genaueren Bestimmung an Persoon schickt, später zunehmend auch um Moose, Farn– und Blütenpflanzen, welche sich Persoon von Funck erbittet. Leider fehlen (bisher) die Gegenbriefe Funcks. Neben diesem Pflanzentausch vermittelt Persoon für Funcks Exsiccatenwerk und später für das „Taschenherbarium“ französische und italienische Interessenten. Dadurch wächst Funcks Bekanntheitsgrad wesentlich: Machte er sich zunächst in Süd– und Mitteldeutschland als Kryptogamenspezialist einen Namen, so wird er durch diese Kontakte über die engeren Grenzen hinaus bekannt. Die Briefe geben außerdem Einblick in die komplizierten postalischen Verhältnisse dieser Zeit. Der wissenschaftliche Austausch unterlag Beschränkungen, die sich nur zögernd besserten. Versand und Tausch von Pflanzen (resp. Flechten, Pilzen) wurde über Buchhändler abgewickelt, wobei besonders Palm in Erlangen und Barth in Leipzig eine wichtige Rolle spielen. Stichwörter: Bryologie, Mykologie, Kryptogamen; Heinrich Christian Funck; Christian Hendrik Persoon Einleitung Mit „Heinrich Christian Funck“, dem seiner Zeit als Wissenschaftler berühmten Apotheker aus Gefrees, verbinden wir in erster Linie Moose, die er in umfassender Weise vor allem im Fichtelgebirge sammelte und veröffentlichte.
