Dieback
On B.telmatiaea the article talks about it being an indicator species to the presence of dieback, is this sufficiently common to include it this article. Gnangarra 01:27, 16 May 2007 (UTC)


 * I wouldn't have thought so initially but am not too familiar with the west's indicator species apart from most proteaceae in general - and B. grandis and B. speciosa being referred to as such...cheers, Cas Liber | talk  |  contribs 01:30, 16 May 2007 (UTC)

Fire
Another observation there's two sections on fire "Response to Fire" and conservation subsection "Fire regime". Gnangarra 01:31, 16 May 2007 (UTC)


 * Yeah - tricky that. I was musing on whether (to make a hierarchy of headings), there should be a section on reproduction with subheadings pollination/fire/seedlings etc. but then there is still the same problem as one can talk about fire under both reproduction and conservation....cheers, Cas Liber | talk  |  contribs 01:37, 16 May 2007 (UTC)
