Abstract:
A flora survey of the Stony Head Training Area, northern Tasmania, was conducted in 2020–2021 as a collaboration between the Tasmanian Museum and Art Gallery’s Expeditions of Discovery and the Australian Biological Resources Study Bush Blitz programs. With a long historical use as an artillery range, the 5000-ha area contains a range of geologies, has a low profile with average elevations under 100 m asl, and its vegetation consists largely of heathy woodlands and coastal heathlands. It contains a range of relatively undisturbed, high-quality native habitats and populatio

Abstract:
The Epacridaceae is one of the families that dominate Australian heathlands, environments prone to disturbance events such as fire and seasonal drought. To investigate the role of fire-related cues in breaking seed-dormancy mechanisms in the Epacridaceae, the influences of heat shock, darkness, direct smoke and varying concentrations of aqueous smoke solutions (5, 10 and 100%) on seed germination of the Tasmanian endemic Epacris tasmanica were examined. A small fraction (5.3%) of non-dormant E. tasmanica seed could germinate in the absence of fire-related cues. The most effective treatment for

Whereas bait and pitfall trappings are two of the most commonly used techniques for sampling ant assemblages, they have not been properly compared in temperate open habitats. In this study, taking advantage of a large-scale project of heathland restoration (three sites along the French Atlantic Coast forming a north-south gradient), we evaluated the relative efficiency of these two methods for assessing both taxonomic and functional diversities of ants. Ants were collected and identified to species level, and six traits related to morphology, behavior (diet, dispersal and maximum foraging dist

Diseases in natural ecosystems are often assumed to be less severe than those observed in domestic cropping systems due to the extensive biodiversity exhibited in wild vegetation communities. In Australia, it is this natural biodiversity that is now under threat from Phytophthora cinnamomi.

Abstract Heath and moor are used here in a general sense to embrace all the plant communities, excluding grasslands, that are associated with heathlands and moorlands. In practical terms, the focus is on dwarf-shrub heath, especially heather (Calluna vulgaris), because this is where most habitat creation experience lies. In addition, some attention will be paid to the associated plant communities of wet heath, valley bog, and blanket bog. For simplicity, the generic term ‘heathland’ is used to cover the whole range of such communities in the uplands and lowlands.

Abstract:
Abstract Southern hemisphere heathlands are characterized by high levels of plant diversity and endemism (Cowling 1983, Hopper et al. 1996). Many of the plant species found in these regions are rare and have small geographic ranges and narrow habitat specificity, although local populations may be large (Rabinowitz 1981). As well as these common patterns of rarity, many southern heathland plants also share a number of life history traits, such as seed dormancy mechanisms, poor propagule dispersal, and the ability of established plants to resprout when burned.

Berg's discovery suggested a further test of the hypothesis in the arena of reproductive biology.
