This book was released on 1983 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Published by the American Geophysical Union as part of the Antarctic Research Series, Volume 37. The spermatophyte and pteridophyte flora of Isla de los Estados, Territorio Nacional de la Tierra del Fuego, Antártida e Islas del Atlántico Sur, Departamento Ushuaia, Argentina, is presented in a systematic format. Detailed descriptions and analyses of the plant formations; associations and communities; ecological considerations; environmental factors; the island's geography, topography, and climate; and a brief historical outline of botanical exploration of the remote island accompany the taxonomic and nomenclatural accounts of the herbarium specimen collections resulting from Research Vessel (R/V) Hero cruise 71-5. The taxonomic catalog, entitled the Systematic and Annotated Synopsis of Vascular Plants, enumerates all genera, species, and infraspecific taxa of angiosperms and ferns that are positively known to be indigenous to Isla de los Estados, or that have been inadvertently introduced and naturalized (e.g., Taraxacum officinale). This systematic synopsis is based almost exclusively on the extensive botanical collections and field observations made on Isla de los Estados during October and November of 1971 by the collecting team of T.R. Dudley, R.N.P. Goodall, and G.E. Crow. These herbarium materials resulted from participation in the joint U.S.-Argentine botanical expedition, R/V Hero cruise 71-5 to Isla de los Estados, under the auspices of the Office of Polar Programs, National Science Foundation, Washington, D.C. The herbarium specimens collected at the very beginning of the expedition from Bahias (Bas.) Buen Suceso and Valentin at the extreme southern tip of Peninsula Mitre, Isla Grande, Territorio Nacional de la Tierra del Fuego, are incorporated into the systematic synopsis for purposes of phytogeographical comparision and analysis. These specimens and observations from Peninsula Mitre are of definite significance because Isla de los Estados is only about 40 km to the east, being separated by the turbulent Estrecho de Le Maire. A smaller collection of herbarium specimens from Provincia Magallanes, Chile, was accumulated before embarking aboard the R/V Hero cruise from Punta Arenas. These Chilean materials are also incorporated in the systematic synopsis, likewise for purposes of comparison, and because this collection, although small, reflects a portion of the accomplishments of the expedition.

Book excerpt: The word 'aliens' can be used in many ways, to invoke fear, dislike and fascination. For biologists it is used to indicate organisms that have been introduced by people to new territories. In the British Isles alien plants are common, conspicuous, pestiferous, beautiful, edible - and can be both useful and harmful.

Download or read book The Biology of Island Floras written by David Bramwell and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2011-07-21 with total page 539 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Oceanic islands offer biologists unparalleled opportunities to study evolutionary processes and ecological phenomena. However, human activity threatens to alter or destroy many of these fragile ecosystems, with recent estimates suggesting that nearly half of the world's insular endemics are threatened with extinction. Bringing together researchers from around the world, this book illustrates how modern research methods and new concepts have challenged accepted theories and changed our understanding of island flora. Particular attention is given to the impact of molecular studies and the insights that they provide into topics such as colonisation, radiation, diversification and hybridisation. Examples are drawn from around the world, including the Hawaiian archipelago, Galapagos Islands, Madagascar and the Macronesian region. Conservation issues are also highlighted, with coverage of alien species and the role of ex situ conservation providing valuable information that will aid the formulation of management strategies and genetic rescue programmes.
