A 350-page book about the diverse plant life in Auckland's Cornwall Park and Maungakiekie/One Tree Hill Domain has just been published (Feb 2023) by the Auckland Botanical Society. Mike Wilcox, one of the six authors, says that 1400 different kinds of plants (and fungi and lichens as well) have been recorded there, making it an urban oasis of protected nature. "We have explored these wonderful adjoining parks, recording the plants there in all seasons. The park trees, both native and introduced, tend to take centre stage, but there are numerous other habitats, such as stone walls, grasslands, rock outcrops, and ornamental gardens that contribute greatly to the overall biodiversity". Mike says the aim of the book is to give the many visitors to the parks a guide through pictures and text to the botanical wonders there, together with information about how birds depend on and benefit the plants, a good example being the feeding habits of tūī and New Zealand pigeon.

Urban forestry is not a one-size-fits-all solution; each city and region, with its own unique set of challenges and opportunities, requires tailored strategies. In recognition of the diversity and distinctiveness of urban forestry issues and their potential for mitigating environmental and socioeconomic inequality across the globe, FAO has asked experts around the world to share their views on how urban forests and trees are perceived and managed in their respective geographical areas, bringing together a broad range of regional perspectives. The primary goal of this publication is to provide a comprehensive overview of the current state of urban forestry worldwide. By showcasing the regional perspectives, insights, experiences and case studies in urban and peri-urban forestry (UPF), we hope to inspire individuals, communities and policymakers to reimagine their relationships with urban green spaces.

Strategies to encourage urban biodiversity are becoming increasingly important as the population of people living in cities continues to grow and urbanisation expands. Urban forests consist of all the trees and lower vegetation within cities and play fundamentally important roles in supporting urban biodiversity, improving the environmental quality of urban areas and the aesthetics of urban landscapes. A key part of the urban forest is the large tree resource, as large trees are known to be keystone structures in many landscapes, acting as "islands' for associated biodiversity. Auckland, New Zealand, has a rapidly changing landscape, resulting in a reduction of green spaces and habitat for ecologically important features such as large trees. Recent policy changes have reduced blanket protection of large trees in urban areas, leading to an ongoing reduction in large tree abundance in Auckland. This study characterized the large tree resource in urban Auckland and determined the importance of large trees for a range of biodiversity. The Auckland urban forest was compared using a 2013 LiDAR analysis across sixteen Local Board Areas and the height distribution of trees located on various land types. Large trees were unequally distributed across different LBAs, but this variation was not correlated with several social and economic variables tested except for the time since urbanisation began. LBAs with younger suburbs generally had more large trees, suggesting large trees are lost as urbanisation progresses. Large trees were predominantly found on public parkland. A subset of urban trees were then examined over a range of diameters, of four large tree species, located in urban parks. These trees were categorised into size classes, and compared for bird species interactions, presence of microhabitats, bat roost potential, epiphyte presence and habitat features used by pest mammals. More birds (abundance) and more species of birds (species richness) interacted with large trees than smaller tree size classes. There was no significant difference between native and exotic tree species. Microhabitat features and vascular epiphytes were found predominantly on large trees compared to other tree sizes. Indications of pest mammal presence, however, was not associated with tree size class. This study provides evidence towards understanding why we require large trees to support the urban ecosystem and the biodiversity found within it. Recommendations from this research consider appropriate regulations around large trees that recognize their ecological importance for associated biota and the urban environment. Therefore, this information can be used by a variety of stakeholders in Auckland city to better manage and protect large trees and ensure a size diverse urban forest.
