Unreferenced date January 2008 A hypothetical list of biota ecology biota , or hypothetical list for short, is a list of taxa of plant s, animal s, fungi etc which are not recorded from a given geographical area, but which may be found there. Such lists are sometimes included by authors of regional biota , partly to demonstrate that the authors have considered and rejected the taxa in question rather than overlooked them, and partly to encourage researchers and others to seek out the taxa in question so that they can be added to the list of the area s biota in future revisions. Taxa may be included for different reasons They may be resident close to the region in question, and the region may have habitat which appears suitable They may be long distance vagrants with a pattern of occurrence They may be poorly studied taxa, which the authors feel could be found in the region if appropriate search techniques are used There may be historical evidence of occurrence which the authors felt was not watertight enough to justify inclusion in a definitive list for the region Ornithological works which have included hypothetical lists include the following A field guide to the birds of Hawaii and the Tropical Pacific by Pratt, Bruner and Berrett Birds of South Asia.

A biotone is a biogeography biogeographical region characterised not by distinctive biota but rather by a distinctive transition from one set of biota to another. They often contain the limits of distribution of the biota of neighbouring regions. Biotones are especially useful in Marine ocean marine biogeography, where the movement of water may result in substantial overlap in the floral and faunal components of adjacent regions. In such case the regions of overlap is considered a biotone. A simple example would be mid latitude waters where tropical and temperate waters mix. This region is a biotone characterised by the transition between tropical and temperate. It would contain both tropical and temperate biota. Tropical biota that do not extend into temperate areas would be at the limit of their range in this biotone, and vice versa. The co occurrence of biota that are normally distinct can result in unusual ecological relationships. References Unreferenced date February 2008 ecoregion stub Category Biogeography ... more details

The Nature Conservation Act 1992 is an statute act of the Parliament of Queensland that provides for the legislative protection of Queensland s threatened biota. As originally published, it provided for biota to be declared presumed extinct , endangered , vulnerable , rare or common . In 2004 the act was amended to more closely align with the IUCN Red List categories presumed extinct was changed to extinct in the wild and common was changed to least concern . Near threatened was introduced as an eventual replacement for rare , but the latter was to be phased out over time rather than immediately abandoned. The act is administered by the state s Environmental Protection Agency Queensland Environmental Protection Agency .
