Osmoxylon miquelii is a species of plant in the family Araliaceae. It is endemic to West Papua (Indonesia).
The International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) Red List of Threatened Species, also known as the IUCN Red List or Red Data Book, founded in 1964, is an inventory of the global conservation status and extinction risk of biological species. A series of Regional Red Lists, which assess the risk of extinction to species within a political management unit, are also produced by countries and organizations.
The Araliaceae are a family of flowering plants composed of about 43 genera and around 1500 species consisting of primarily woody plants and some herbaceous plants commonly called the ginseng family. The morphology of Araliaceae varies widely, but it is predominantly distinguishable based on its woody habit, tropical distribution, and the presence of simple umbels.
Cycas is a genus of cycad, and the only genus in the family Cycadaceae with all other genera of cycad being divided between the Stangeriaceae and Zamiaceae families. Cycas circinalis, a species endemic to India, was the first cycad species to be described in western literature, and is the type species of the genus.
Osmoxylon is a genus of flowering plants in the family Araliaceae.
Aralioideae is a subfamily of flowering plants contains around 50 recognized genera. These include the genus Panax, to which ginseng belongs. Other notable species are the Angelica-tree, the devil's club, or common ivy.
The white-bibbed fruit dove is a species of bird in the family Columbidae.
Macrozamia miquelii, is a species of cycad in the plant family Zamiaceae. It is endemic to Queensland and New South Wales in Eastern Australia. Located within sclerophyll forests dominated by eucalyptus trees, the cycad grows on nutrient-poor soils. It is recognised within the Zamiaceae family for its, medium height at 1 m, intermediate size of male and female cones and lighter green leaves compared to other cycads within the plant family of Zamiaceae. The seeds have an orange red sarcotesta which attracts fauna consumption, allowing a mutualistic seed dispersal for the cycad. These seeds are also edible for human consumption if prepared correctly to remove the toxins.
Macrozamia mountperriensis is a species of plant in the family Zamiaceae endemic to the area around Mount Perry in Queensland; however, it is not considered threatened due to its large population in the area. The species was discovered by colonial botanists including Frederick Manson Bailey and James Keys in the late 1800s. All members of the Zamiaceae family are considered to be poisonous.
Osmoxylon arrhenicum is a species of plant in the family Araliaceae. It is endemic to Papua New Guinea.
Osmoxylon chrysanthum is a species of plant in the family Araliaceae. It is endemic to Papua New Guinea.
Osmoxylon corneri is a species of plant in the family Araliaceae. It is endemic to Papua New Guinea.
Osmoxylon ellipsoideum is a species of plant in the family Araliaceae. It is endemic to Papua New Guinea.
Osmoxylon lanceolatum is a species of plant in the family Araliaceae. It is endemic to Papua New Guinea.
Osmoxylon mariannense is a rare species of tree in the family Araliaceae. It is endemic to Rota, one of the Northern Mariana Islands. A 2002 survey found only eight mature trees remaining on the island. A resident of the commonwealth, the tree is federally listed as an endangered species of the United States.
Osmoxylon reburrum is a species of plant in the family Araliaceae. It is endemic to Papua New Guinea.
Mazus is a genus of low-growing perennial plants. It has been placed in various plant families including Phrymaceae, Scrophulariaceae, and recently in the family Mazaceae. Consisting of around 40 species, this genus is generally found in damp habitats in lowland or mountain regions of China, Japan, Southeast Asia, Australia and New Zealand.
Amyema miquelii, also known as box mistletoe, is a species of flowering plant, an epiphytic hemiparasitic plant of the family Loranthaceae, found attached to several species of Australian eucalypt and occasionally on some species of Acacia. It is the most widespread of the Australian Mistletoes, occurring mainly to the west of the Great Dividing Range. It has shiny leaves and red flowers arranged in groups of 3. It is distinguished from the similar Amyema pendula through the individual stalks of the flowers.
A vulnerable species is a species which has been categorized by the International Union for Conservation of Nature as being threatened with extinction unless the circumstances that are threatening its survival and reproduction improve.
Mazus miquelii, commonly known as Miquel's mazus or creeping mazus, is a species of herbaceous perennial groundcover native to Japan and China. Mazus reptans is now considered a heterotypic synonym of M. miquelii, but is still often used in the ornamental plant trade.
Endangered species, as classified by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN), are species which have been categorized as very likely to become extinct in their known native ranges in the near future. On the IUCN Red List, endangered is the second-most severe conservation status for wild populations in the IUCN's schema after critically endangered. In 2012, the IUCN Red List featured 3,079 animal and 2,655 plant species as endangered worldwide. The figures for 1998 were 1,102 and 1,197 respectively.
