Systematics and Taxonomy of Kimberley Plants (Western Australia)

The Kimberley Region of Western Australia is one of the least-explored areas of Australia. Detailed surveys in the last 20 years have uncovered a wealth of unknown or unrecognised species, the majo rity of them rare and endemic to the Kimberley. This project (mostly self-funded) aims to describe these new species, and explore the spatial and temporal patterns of speciation in the Kimberley Region. Russell Barrett (https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Russell_Barrett) is also working toward these same goals. ... [more]

Hybridisation in the Cape Fynbos and Australian Kwongan

This is an open invitation to contribute to a Special Issue of South African Journal of Botany on Hybridisation in the Cape Fynbos and Australian Kwongan plants. At present, hybridisation is consid ered to be exceptionally rare in both the Cape Fynbos and Australian Kwongan systems. There are surprisingly few examples in the scientific literature on this topic from charismatic lineages in these regions. However, this absence of evidence should not suggest that hybridisation has been absent. This lack is more likely driven by a range of other factors, such as the challenges involved in studying hybridisation in non-model organisms and an ecological setting where generations are commonly nonoverlapping-separated by fire events- in many species. With the advent of directed long-distance ant hropogenic movement of species (e.g. in commercially important species such as members of the Proteaceae), hybridisation and genetic contamination are significant potential threats to the conservation of biodiversity. Furthermore, an understanding of the role of hybridisation will contribute towards understanding the evolution of these global biodiversity hotspots. The aim of this special issue is to rejuvenate the study of hybridisation in the Fynbos and Kwongan. ... [more]

Drosera monticola (Lowrie & N.G.Marchant) Lowrie was first described as Drosera stolonifera Endl. subsp. monticola Lowrie & N.G.Marchant in 1992 (Lowrie & Marchant 1992). It was raised to species status as Drosera monticola by Lowrie (2005). However, this combination is a nomen invalidum under Art. 33.4 of the International Code of Botanical Nomenclature (McNeill et al. 2006) because the page ... [Show full abstract] number given for the basionym was incorrectly quoted as 'pages 323-332' (the pagination range of the whole paper), rather than 'page 326' (the page of the basionym's protologue). This oversight is hereby rectified and the combination Drosera monticola formally validated.
