Abstract : Cynanchum scopulosum Bosser (Apocynaceae), a new Mauritius endemic species was discovered in 2003 on Gunner's Quoin Nature reserve, a highly degraded offshore islet north of Mauritius. The plant's basic ecology is described and threats to its persistence are discussed. The species is critically endangered. Recommendations to secure its future are given. The discovery adds further conservation value to Gunner's Quoin.

Citation : Ng Kee Kwong, K. F.; Ramasawmy-Chellen, G.; Potassium in soils cropped with sugarcane in Mauritius; 2006
Abstract : In view of the importance of potassium (K) in sugarcane production, a study was initiated to broaden current understanding of the K in the soils of Mauritius. Water soluble, exchangeable and non-exchangeable K as well as the 0.1 M H2SO4 extractible K (extraction in 0.1 M H2SO4 is used to give a measure of long term K availability in soils of Mauritius) were determinedbefore and after fertilization with 1.25 g K per kg soil (equivalent to 350 kg KCL per ha) in 73 soils under sugarcane in Mauritius. The rate of K release with time was also studied in the soils receiving the added KCl. The results
