Species of the genus Epuraea Erichson, 1845 from New Zealand are revised and redescribed. The New Zealand fauna comprises six species. One new species, Epuraea glabrata sp. nov. is described. Epuraea mayendorfi i (Reitter, 1873) is provided as a valid replacement name for Nitidula lateralis (White, 1846), not Nitidula lateralis C. R. Sahlberg, 1820. One new synonymy is proposed, Epuraea mayendorfi i (Reitter, 1873) = Epuraea zealandica Sharp, 1878, syn. nov. Key words. Coleoptera, Nitidulidae, Epuraea, taxonomy, new species, new sy- nonymies, key, New Zealand Introduction The genus Epuraea Erichson, 1843 is found worldwide (JELÍNEK et al. 2010), and as typical for many widespread beetles, has not been revised globally, though regional comprehensive studies have been completed for parts of Africa (JELÍNEK 1977, 1992), Asia (KIREJTSHUK 1988, HISAMATSU 2016), and Europe (AUDISIO 1993) and partially revised elsewhere for areas of high diversity – e.g. North America (PARSONS 1967, 1969). Species of Epuraea currently known from New Zealand were described previously by WHITE (1846), REITTER (1877), SHARP (1878) and BROUN (1880), but some valid names were neglected by many subsequent authors, such that some problems in their nomenclature and systematics remained unresolved. -

Patterns of flammability across the vascular plant phylogeny, with special emphasis on the genus Dracophyllum A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of philosophy at Lincoln University by Xinglei Cui Lincoln University 2020 Abstract of a thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of philosophy. Abstract Patterns of flammability across the vascular plant phylogeny, with special emphasis on the genus Dracophyllum by Xinglei Cui Fire has been part of the environment for the entire history of terrestrial plants and is a common disturbance agent in many ecosystems across the world. Fire has a significant role in influencing the structure, pattern and function of many ecosystems. Plant flammability, which is the ability of a plant to burn and sustain a flame, is an important driver of fire in terrestrial ecosystems and thus has a fundamental role in ecosystem dynamics and species evolution. However, the factors that have influenced the evolution of flammability remain unclear. -

Dome of Monserrate seen behind Trachycarpus fortunei and Phoenix canariensis. The garden of Monserrate in Portugal contains a wealth of fine trees planted mostly in the second half of the nineteenth century including giant Araucarias, Kauri pines, Banyans and Metrosideros. The collection of palms is particularly rich and has great historical significance since the palms at Monserrate were among the first specimens of their kind planted in the open air in Europe. Today there are some seventy or more species of palm growing at Monserrate, twenty-four of them representing historic plantings (Fig. 1).

BOTANICAL FEATURES of the MOKOHINAU ISLANDS by A.E
TANE 24, 1978 BOTANICAL FEATURES OF THE MOKOHINAU ISLANDS by A.E. Esler Botany Division, DSIR, Private Bag, Auckland SUMMARY The vegetation of the islands is very depleted. Burning and grazing have left pohutukawa {Metrosideros excelsa) and ngaio (Myoporum laetum) as the only large woody plants on Burgess Island and the neighbouring islets. Burning has promoted 2 monocots — flax (Phormium tenax) on the western islets where there is no grazing, and Scirpus nodosus (and some grassland) on Burgess Island where livestock have not allowed flax to establish. A relic piece of bush on Fanal Island is supplying seeds for the spread of forest there. The Mokohinau Islands have about 112 species of native plants and about 80 naturalised species. INTRODUCTION Perhaps the earliest written comment on the plant life of the Mokohinau Islands was by F. Sandager, a lighthouse keeper. In a paper on birds (Sandager 1889) he mentioned as prominent plants Metrosideros, Pittosporum, Myoporum, Coprosma, Hebe, Carmichaelia, Olearia, Phormium, Disphyma, the ferns Pteridium aquilinum (bracken) and Adiantum aethiopicum, and grasses and sedges. Mary E. Gillham visited the islands in August, 1957, described the plant communities, drew a generalised vegetation map, and listed the plant species (Gillham 1960). My paper supplements the earlier accounts and gives islands of occurrence for each plant species listed. The opportunity was taken to visit the islands with C.R. Veitch (Wildlife Service), A.R. Thorpe (Hauraki Gulf Maritime Park) and G. Kuschel (DSIR) from 27 February till 2 March, 1978. Two and a half days were spent in the field visiting seven islands in the group. -
Trees, Shrubs, and Perennials That Intrigue Me (Gymnosperms First
Big-picture, evolutionary view of trees and shrubs (and a few of my favorite herbaceous perennials), ver. 2007-11-04 Descriptions of the trees and shrubs taken (stolen!!!) from online sources, from my own observations in and around Greenwood Lake, NY, and from these books: • Dirr’s Hardy Trees and Shrubs, Michael A. Dirr, Timber Press, © 1997 • Trees of North America (Golden field guide), C. Frank Brockman, St. Martin’s Press, © 2001 • Smithsonian Handbooks, Trees, Allen J. Coombes, Dorling Kindersley, © 2002 • Native Trees for North American Landscapes, Guy Sternberg with Jim Wilson, Timber Press, © 2004 • Complete Trees, Shrubs, and Hedges, Jacqueline Hériteau, © 2006 They are generally listed from most ancient to most recently evolved. (I’m not sure if this is true for the rosids and asterids, starting on page 30. I just listed them in the same order as Angiosperm Phylogeny Group II.) This document started out as my personal landscaping plan and morphed into something almost unwieldy and phantasmagorical. Key to symbols and colored text: Checkboxes indicate species and/or cultivars that I want. Checkmarks indicate those that I have (or that one of my neighbors has). Text in blue indicates shrub or hedge. (Unfinished task – there is no text in blue other than this text right here.) Text in red indicates that the species or cultivar is undesirable: • Out of range climatically (either wrong zone, or won’t do well because of differences in moisture or seasons, even though it is in the “right” zone). • Will grow too tall or wide and simply won’t fit well on my property. -

Eco Friendly Trees provide the majority of the oxygen we breathe. Their root systems absorb water which helps regulate rainwater run-off, reducing the risk of local flooding. Trees also help to cool off the water which otherwise can become quite warm, damaging river systems as it drains away. Shelter Leafland is aware of the need to look more closely at container Trees provide shelter from wind and rain and shade in the summer. This growing methods used for advanced grade trees in NZ.
