    Systematic Botany (2002), 27(4): pp. 722±733 q Copyright 2002 by the American Society of Plant Taxonomists Phylogenetic Analysis of Nuclear Ribosomal ITS/5.8S Sequences in the Tribe Millettieae (Fabaceae): Poecilanthe-Cyclolobium, the core Millettieae, and the Callerya Group JER-MING HU,1,5 MATT LAVIN,2 MARTIN F. W OJCIECHOWSKI,3 and MICHAEL J. SANDERSON4 1Department of Botany, National Taiwan University, Taipei, Taiwan; 2Department of Plant Sciences, Montana State University, Bozeman, Montana 59717; 3Department of Plant Biology, Arizona State University, Tempe, Arizona 85287; 4Section of Evolution and Ecology, University of California, Davis, California 95616 5Author for correspondence ([email protected]) Communicating Editor: Jerrold I. Davis ABSTRACT. The taxonomic composition of three principal and distantly related groups of the former tribe Millettieae, which were ®rst identi®ed from nuclear phytochrome and chloroplast trnK/matK sequences, was more extensively investi- gated with a phylogenetic analysis of nuclear ribosomal DNA ITS/5.8S sequences. The ®rst of these groups includes the neotropical genera Poecilanthe and Cyclolobium, which are resolved as basal lineages in a clade that otherwise includes the neotropical genera Brongniartia and Harpalyce and the Australian Templetonia and Hovea. The second group includes the large millettioid genera, Millettia, Lonchocarpus, Derris,andTephrosia, which are referred to as the ``core Millettieae'' group. Phy- logenetic analysis of nuclear ribosomal DNA ITS/5.8S sequences reveals that Millettia is polyphyletic, and that subclades of the core Millettieae group, such as the New World Lonchocarpus or the pantropical Tephrosia and segregate genera (e.g., Chadsia and Mundulea), each form well supported monophyletic subgroups.

    Transformations: Ecology of Pyrmont peninsula 1788 - 2008 John Broadbent Transformations: Ecology of Pyrmont peninsula 1788 - 2008 John Broadbent Sydney, 2010. Ecology of Pyrmont peninsula iii Executive summary City Council’s ‘Sustainable Sydney 2030’ initiative ‘is a vision for the sustainable development of the City for the next 20 years and beyond’. It has a largely anthropocentric basis, that is ‘viewing and interpreting everything in terms of human experience and values’(Macquarie Dictionary, 2005). The perspective taken here is that Council’s initiative, vital though it is, should be underpinned by an ecocentric ethic to succeed. This latter was defined by Aldo Leopold in 1949, 60 years ago, as ‘a philosophy that recognizes[sic] that the ecosphere, rather than any individual organism[notably humans] is the source and support of all life and as such advises a holistic and eco-centric approach to government, industry, and individual’(http://dictionary.babylon.com). Some relevant considerations are set out in Part 1: General Introduction. In this report, Pyrmont peninsula - that is the communities of Pyrmont and Ultimo – is considered as a microcosm of the City of Sydney, indeed of urban areas globally. An extensive series of early views of the peninsula are presented to help the reader better visualise this place as it was early in European settlement (Part 2: Early views of Pyrmont peninsula). The physical geography of Pyrmont peninsula has been transformed since European settlement, and Part 3: Physical geography of Pyrmont peninsula describes the geology, soils, topography, shoreline and drainage as they would most likely have appeared to the first Europeans to set foot there.
