	Dimorphotheca pluvialis
		Dimorphotheca pluvialis is an annual endemic to Namibia, Namaqualand and the south western Cape.
		Under favorable conditions the papery seed of the disk florets germinate in abundance, while the seeds of the ray florets have delayed germination to protect the species against unpredictable conditions in their arid environment.
		Dimorphotheca pluvialis forms a bushy plant that is covered with large white daisies all flowering at the same level.

		The Eurasian Golden Plover, Pluvialis apricaria, is a largish plover.
		American Golden Plover, Pluvialis dominiica, and Pacific Golden Plover, Pluvialis fulva, are both smaller, slimmer and relatively longer-legged than Eurasian Golden Plover, and both have grey rather than white axillary (armpit) feathers.

	Submission No:130
		The bird was viewed by two experienced observers for up to one and half hours in clear bright conditions and to within two metres as it foraged on tidal mudflats in association with other golden plovers considered to be Pluvialis fulva.
		The notes submitted detail a Pluvialis plover with a distinct grey appearance to most wing coverts, a grey breast and some golden spangling present on the mantle, back, scapulars and tertials.
		Particular attention was paid to the markedly attenuated appearance of the rear end and to the extent of the primary projection beyond the tail relative to the length of the tertials.

		The Photoprotective role of astaxanthin inHaematococcus pluvialis:: The photoprotective function of a keto-carotenoid astaxanthin accumulated in a green alga Haematococcus pluvialis was studied.
		By using methyl blue and histidine, it was demonstrated that singlet oxygen was involved in triggering astaxanthin accumulation in H. pluvialis.
		We propose that astaxanthin biosynthesis in H. pluvialis is an enzymatic antioxidant system for destruction of singlet oxygen..

	AstaFactor Technical Report: Haematococcus Pluvialis and Astaxanthin Safety For Human Consumption
		A recent 28-day rat study with Haematococcus pluvialis dry algal meal, produced by Mera Pharmaceuticals’ proprietary technology, demonstrated that there was no observed sub-acute toxicity at a daily dose of 50 mg/kg body weight, corresponding to 3,500 mg algal meal per 70-kg body weight of a typical adult man.
		Three groups of 20 rats each (10 males/10 females) were fed daily by gavage 0, 5, or 50 mg/kg algal meal in a corn oil suspension for 28 consecutive days (corresponding to daily doses of 0, 350 mg and 3,500 mg algal for 70-kg body weight).
		Haematococcus pluvialis is not known to have any carcinogenic effect, or contain significant levels of recognized carcinogens.

	The Pacific Golden-Plover (Pluvialis Fulva): Discovery of the Species and Other Historical Notes
		CONNORS, P.G. Taxonomy, distribution, and evolution of golden plovers (Pluvialis dominica and Pluvialis fulva).
		Tracing the past of the Pacific Golden-Plover (Pluvialis fulva) touches on the remarkable endurance and ac- complishments of several 18th-century ornitholo- gists, the perils of not publishing promptly, and the work of an early systematist who became the recog- nized authority for the species without examining any specimens.
		This plover has a relatively "distin- guished background" in that it was found and de- scribed by famous naturalists during Capt. James Cook's explorations of the Pacific.

		I don't care what the DE plover is; I do care about ID frontiers, and for me the pics at the DOS site look like a dominica; if more photos of it show fulva features then I need to know this an learn from it.
		I think the striking difference between this bird and the bird next to it (on the left) is explained by different age and individual variation, not by different species.
		But the fact that the primary tips are not equal, does at least make you think that orientation could be making interpretation unreliable.

		Chloroplasts isolated from a plant species, Dimorphotheca pluvialis Moench (Asteraceae), grown under visible light without supplementary UV-B radiation have poor grana development.
		However, such chloroplasts possess capacity for electron transfer through the whole photosynthetic chain, based on the measurement of the reduction of ferredoxin.
		The increase in membrane stacking in Dimorphotheca pluvialis, induced by supplementary ultraviolet-B radiation during plant growth suggests that UV-B may be an essential factor for the development of the membrane stacking in chloroplasts of higher plants.
