The extension of the taxon cycle model to island plants: insights from the Canarian vascular flora
Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Taxon cycle models describe eco‐evolutionary patterns of lineage colonization, diversification, and decline across archipelagos, inferring an important role for competition amongst ecologically similar taxa in driving concurrent niche changes.

A Parasite of the Tree Fern (Cyathea)
Botanical Gazette, 1919 July 14, 1915. On the older leaves the fungus is so abundant that the smallest frond segments, which measure about 3 X 7 mm., bear 25 or more of the black spots, and no segment is free of the fungus. On comparatively young fronds infections are less numerous, but even on such there are many fungous spots. A general idea of the appearance of the disease

Quantifying the abundance of four large epiphytic fern species in remnant complex notophyll vine forest on the Atherton Tableland, north Queensland, Australia [PDF]
, 2013 Epiphytes are generally considered rare in complex forests on the western edge of the Atherton Tablelands, north Queensland. This assertion is based on comparisons with wetter forests in the Wet Tropics bioregion, but is of limited use in restoration ...
