Lake Arapuni is one of several artificial lakes formed as part of a hydroelectricity scheme on the Waikato River in the North Island of New Zealand. It is 65 km (40 mi) southeast of Hamilton, to the north of Mangakino.

The dam, at the small settlement of Arapuni at the lake's northern end, was the first constructed on the Waikato, and was commissioned in 1929.[1] The lake occupies an area of 9.4 km2 (3.6 sq mi).[1]

One thought on “Cannabaceae”

  1. Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
