We used a physically based ecohydrological model to predict the water balance and growth responses of a mountain ash (Eucalyptus regnans F. Muell.) forest catchment to clear-felling and regeneration. The model, Topog-IRM, was applied to a 0.53 km(2) catchment for a 3-year pretreatment period, and a 20-year period following clear-felling and reseeding of 78% of the catchment area. Simulations we...

Summary At the time of description, morphology Ptychaphelenchus eucalypticola Hodda, 2009 indicated it could be assigned to either Aphelenchoididae Skarbilovich, 1947 (Paramonov, 1953) or Parasitaphelenchidae Ruehm, 1956 (Siddiqi, 1980) within Aphelenchoidoidea 1980). Although P. was, tentatively, and remains Aphelenchoididae, its relationships with other aphelenchoids have not been reassessed,...

Karri (Eucalyptus diversicolor F. Muell.) forest is an endemic type of southwest Western Australia (SWWA), noted for having the tallest trees in region, and providing commercial, ecological conservation value. To inform management aimed at optimising these values, a thinning trial was commenced 1992. The aim this study to evaluate effects on individual tree growth, stand level growth allometry ...

Genetic studies are increasingly detecting cryptic taxa that likely represent a significant component of global biodiversity. However, often criticized because they typically detected serendipitously and may not receive the follow-up study required to verify their geographic or evolutionary limits. Here, we Eucalyptus salubris unexpectedly two divergent lineages but was sampled sufficiently mak...
