ABSTRACT The Eucalyptus variegated beetle (Paropsisterna cloelia) was established in New Zealand in 2016 and has caused substantial damage to selected host species. Previous field observations suggested that Pst. cloelia larvae may feed for a longer period during the year than the closely related Eucalyptus tortoise beetle (Paropsis charybdis), New ...

Uptake of inorganic and amino acid nitrogen from soil by Eucalyptus regnans and Eucalyptus pauciflora seedlings [PDF]
This study examined whether two species of Eucalyptus can take up the amino acid glycine from soil and compared the uptake rate of glycine with the uptake rates of nitrate and ammonium. Ectomycorrhizal seedlings of two ecologically disparate species were studied: Eucalyptus regnans F.

Wildfire in wet sclerophyll forests: the interplay between disturbances and fuel dynamics
There are multiple pathways for vegetation to change following disturbances. Understanding those post‐disturbance pathways is critical for managing wildfire risk since vegetation is fuel in a wildfire context. Across forest systems, there is considerable

ABSTRACT The Tasmanian masked owl (Tyto novaehollandiae subsp. castanops) and swift parrot (Lathamus discolor) rely on old forest features that are declining across their ranges in Tasmania, Australia. Under the Australian Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999, the swift parrot is listed as Critically Endangered, and the ...

Detecting and attributing climate change effects on vegetation: Australia as a test case
Climate change is contributing to vegetation changes that threaten life support systems. Yet, inherent climatic variability and past and present human actions—such as clearing, burning and grazing regimes—also alter vegetation and complicate understanding of vegetation change. Australian ecosystems exemplify such complexity.

Canopy laser scanning (CLS) enhances 3D measurements of large trees by lifting laser scanners into the canopy. Combining CLS with terrestrial laser scanning improves point cloud precision, reduces occlusion and enables detailed assessments of tree architecture and canopy biodiversity, opening new opportunities for forest ecology.

ABSTRACT Understanding diet selection in threatened species is crucial for effective conservation planning, particularly where bushfires alter food availability and quality. In Australian eucalypt forests, Eucalyptus leaves are the primary food for several arboreal marsupials, such as the southern greater glider (Petauroides volans).

Eucalyptus regnans (Myrtaceae): A fire‐sensitive eucalypt with a resprouter epicormic structure [PDF]
Determining the location of buds and bud‐forming meristems and hence the level of protection from heat is essential to understanding plant response to fire. Most eucalypts resprout readily from the stem (epicormic resprouting) and the base after felling or high intensity fire.
