The Botanical Results of a Journey into the Interior of Western Australia; with some Observations on the Nature and Relations of the Desert Flora.

The Western Australian species of subtribe Persooniinae (Proteaceae: Persoonioideae: Persoonieae)

“…Between 1870 and the early 1950s all work at the species level in the subtribe was of a piecemeal nature. Miscellaneous new species were described by Mueller (1876), Moore (1899), Fitzgerald (1912), Gandoger (1919), Domin (1921), and Audas & Morris (1929). Of these contributions, that of Gandoger (1919) demands the most attention.…”

Exposing the error hidden in plain sight: A critique of Calder's (1983) group selectionist seed‐dispersal hypothesis for mistletoe “mimicry” of host plants

“…Moore (1899) appears to have been the first to suggest in print that evolution within a mistletoe population toward the phenotype of a particular host could result from diminished risks of consumption by herbivores of individuals that are most similar in appearance to their host, that is, concealment and protection from enemies. Although Moore (1899) focused primarily on concealment from florivores, in their review and assessment Barlow and Wiens (1977) favored folivores as the enemies to which concealment could provide a degree of protection.…”

991. Nicotiana Rosulata

“…We visited this region in September 2016, a year of exceptionally good winter rains, and indeed the floristic diversity was spectacular. As pointed out by Spencer Moore (1899) during his visit to the Goldfields in 1895; ‘Go where you will, the quantity of the vegetation is marvellous, when one bears in mind the extremely small rainfall.’ Fields of colourful paper daisies, mulla mullas ( Ptilotus ) and emu bushes ( Eremophila ) were the most impressive and diverse representatives of the flora.…”
