Geochemical constraints imposed by ultramafic lithologies strongly affect soil and ecosystem development, typically signified by elevated trace element concentrations, nutrient imbalances and reduced biological productivity. In a reconnaissance study, we assessed the variability of soil and ecosystem conditions across a moraine complex with mixed ...

Gentianella calcis subsp. waipara Glenny & Molloy (Gentianaceae) is endemic to limestone formations in North Canterbury, New Zealand. A previous conservation genetics study of G. calcis Glenny & Molloy and another eastern South Island limestone endemic species, G. astonii (Petrie) T.N.Ho & S.W.Liu, showed that G. calcis subsp.

The Lauxaniid fly Incurviseta cf. maculifrons (Malloch, 1925) is a locally abundant but poorly understood flower visitor in the Australian Alpine. We describe the flower visitation, pollen transport, pollen diet and mouthpart morphology of I. cf. maculifrons using field observations, pollen analyses and scanning electron microscopy. I. cf.
