Round Island Light, Isles of Scilly nests of Manx shearwater ("Puffinus puffinus"). Permission is needed from Trinity House to land on the island and only two botanists are known to have visited. The first, J. E. Lousley, in 1957, only recorded the invasive Hottentot fig ("Carpobrotus edulis"). Thirty years later, in 1987, Rosemary Parslow found much of the ground between the buildings and the cliff edge was covered in a carpet of purple dewplant ("Disphyma crassifolium") and Hottentot fig. She also recorded a small number of the expected coastal species. They were sea spleenwort ("Asplenium marinum"), bird's–foot trefoil ("Lotus corniculatus"), spear–leaved orache ("Atriplex prostrata"), sea beet
Summerland Peninsula Bird Area. It is home to one of the largest Little Penguin ("Eudyptula minor") breeding colonies in Australia, the second largest breeding colony of Australian Fur Seals ("Arctocephalus pusillus doriferus") in the world, one of the largest breeding colonies of Greater crested terns ("Sterna bergii") in Victoria and an important breeding ground for Short-tailed shearwaters ("Puffinus tenuirostris"). Several plants regarded as rare or threatened in either Victoria or Australia have been recorded on the peninsula, including River Swamp Wallaby-grass ("Amphibromus fluitans") listed as vulnerable in Australia. The peninsula was significantly modified by agricultural, residential and recreational developments until the 1980s
