1 New id tools: Lucid keys, apps and other resources Murray Dawson Landcare Research Lincoln, New Zealand
2 Interactive keys NZ flora Coprosma flowering plant genera orchids weeds grasses etc. Outline Mobile app development Smartphones and tablets Android and ios Allan Herbarium Plant Biosystematics Group Free tools Citizen science solutions
3 New Zealand flora series Authoritative Botanists Bibles Comprehensive Technical Detailed descriptions Dichotomous ID keys New Zealand Floras 5 main volumes, different groups 1. Allan Moore & Edgar Healy & Edgar Webb, Sykes, Garnock-Jones Edgar & Connor 2000, Others lichens, desmids, liverworts, mosses NZ Floras
4 What about Floras for plant Not user friendly Technical language Complex descriptions Lack of illustrations. identification? Traditional printed keys Written by those who don t need them for those who can t use them Only one start point Often rely on floral characters.
5 1. L. multiflorum Lam., Fl. Franc. 3: 621 (1778). Italian ryegrass, Westerwolds ryegrass Not user friendly Technical language Complex descriptions Lack of illustrations. Traditional printed keys Written by those who don t need them for those who can t use them Only one start point Often rely on floral characters. Annual to biennial, slender to rather stout tufts, (20) (130) cm; branching intravaginal, leaf-blade rolled when young. Leaf-sheath glabrous, pink at base to light brown above, not becoming very fibrous; upper sheaths sometimes scabrid. Auricles usually present, to 1.6 mm. Ligule (0.6) mm, truncate, glabrous. Leaf-blade (5.5)-8-30 cm (0.7) (11) mm, abaxially glabrous and shining, adaxially smooth or usually scaberulous; margins scaberulous, tapered to scabrid acute tip. Culm cm, erect, or spreading or decumbent, often branched below, internodes smooth. Spikes (9.5) (45) cm, erect or curved; rachis c. 1 mm wide, usually ± scabrid. Spikelets mm, (4)-9-14-flowered, green or purplish, overlapping, or more than their own length apart. Upper glume usually «spikelet, 5-7-nerved, narrow-lanceolate or narrow-oblong, obtuse or acute, glabrous. Lemma 6-8 mm, 5-nerved, oblong or oblong-lanceolate, smooth or minutely scaberulous especially on hyaline margins, not turgid at maturity, apex obtuse or shortly bifid; awn (2)-4-10 mm, fine, straight, subapical. Palea lemma, keels scaberulous. Anthers mm. Caryopsis mm. Naturalised. Lolium description (top) Part of a traditional key (bottom)
6 Field guides Field guides are derived works, e.g., Common weeds of New Zealand Threatened plants Small-leaved shrubs Wild plants of Mt Cook Wild orchids of the lower North Island Illustrated guide to sun orchids Field guide to native trees
7 Field guides for plant id? Id s are often through page-flipping Limited number of species Limited images for each sp. Become out-of-date
8 Interactive identification keys Multi-access Dynamic and efficient Easy and fun to use Numerous images, taxa and characters Iris pseudacorus
9 Interactive identification keys Multi-access Dynamic and efficient Easy and fun to use Numerous images, taxa and characters Allow for character misinterpretation
10 New Zealand plant interactive keys Lucid TM software Industry leading software Developed in Australia Available in NZ since 2005 Most created by Allan Herbarium staff and collaborators Two-year projects 100s of characters 1000s of images Most online at Landcare Research website Links to other resources Factsheets, Plant Names Database, NZPCN, NZNOG, WeedBusters Free due to public-good funding TFBIS (Terrestrial & Freshwater Biodiversity Information System) Programme
11 New Zealand plant interactive keys Lucid keys (Java versions, not apps): Australasian liverwort and hornwort genera Cultivated pines (Scion) Grasses Weeds Coprosma Cotoneaster Native orchids Flowering plant genera Native plants of schools and marae Biodiversity at Styx Mill Ferns & conifers of Cass Weedy daisies of the South Pacific

14 New Zealand eflora Keys link to eflora species profiles Online and updating the traditional printed copies of the Flora of New Zealand series New and revised taxonomic treatments Factsheets Dynamic, continually updated
15 Landcare Research plant apps LucidMobile app versions of online (Java) keys TFBIS funding $70k 2 years ( ) 4( 5) keys
16 Landcare Research plant apps
17 Landcare Research plant apps NZ Weeds Key
18 May seem geeky but (some) smartphone apps are useful tools: 48% of New Zealanders now own a smartphone They are becoming their device of choice Thousands of apps available Android (Google) and ios (Apple) versions. Why apps?
19 Why apps? Apps using LucidMobile Fully portable; ideal for field work Self contained; work without cellphone connection Simple and intuitive interface Use Lucid Builder files; don t have to start from scratch Overcomes Java issues of browser versions Learning resource Character (feature) explanations Species profiles Android and ios
