A var. coeruleus differt antheris lanceolatis brevi-apiculatis. Type (WS): M. & R. P. Ownbey 17 24, collected in barren soil under conifers, Plaskett Meadows, 8 miles southeast of Mendocino Pass, Glenn Co., California, July 12, 1938. (C. coeruleus var. nanus Ownbey, Ann. Mo. Bot. Gd. 27: 416, 1940. Not C. elegans var. nanus Wood.) Field studies in the mountains west of Yreka, the type locality of C. elegans var. nanus, identify its fragmentary type with the more recently described C. elegans var. oreophilus Ownbey. Thus, the widespread variety of C. coeruleus of the North Coast Ranges and vicinity of Mt. Shasta is left without a name. Apparently the two varieties are separated at their nearest approach to each other by a distance of about thirty miles. Calochortus palmeri Wats. var. munzii M. Ownbey, var. nov. A var. palmeri differt caule basi non bulbifero; pedicellis bin is; bracteis oppositis; glandulis purpureis nullisve. Type (WS): Munz & Everett 14915, collected on exposed knolls and in shade of pines, 2 miles northwest of Pipe Creek, southern end of San Jacinto Mts., Riverside County, California, June 23, 1950. These plants from the San Jacinto Mountains differ sharply from typical C. palmeri of the San Bernardino Mountains and northward with its basal bulblets, monochasial 1-4-flowered inflorescence, and yellow gland. They grow in drier habitats, var. pal­ meri being confined to low meadows and other moist to wet situations. It is possbile or even probable that var. palmeri does not occur in the San Jacinto Mountains at all, the reports from there being based on specimens of var. munzii. Trillium chloropetalum (Torr.)

NHESP is responsible for the conservation and protection of hundreds of species that are not hunted, fished, trapped, or commercially harvested in the state. The Program's highest priority is protecting the 176 species of vertebrate and invertebrate animals and 259 species of native plants that are officially listed as Endangered, Threatened or of Special Concern in Massachusetts. Endangered species conservation in Massachusetts depends on you! A major source of funding for the protection of rare and endangered species comes from voluntary donations on state income tax forms.

The national park was F E R N S established in 1968. In 1994, a cooperative agreement with the California Department of Parks and Recreation added Del Norte Coast, Prairie Creek, Athyriaceae – Lady Fern Family and Jedediah Smith Redwoods state parks to form a single administrative Athyrium filix-femina var. cyclosporum • northwestern lady fern unit. Together they comprise about 133,000 acres (540 km2), including 37 miles of coast line. Almost half of the remaining old growth redwood forests Blechnaceae – Deer Fern Family are protected in these four parks.

  • Sierra Nevada Framework FEIS Chapter 3
    table of contrents Sierra Nevada Forest Plan Amendment – Part 4.6 4.6. Vascular Plants, Bryophytes, and Fungi4.6. Fungi Introduction Part 3.1 of this chapter describes landscape-scale vegetation patterns. Part 3.2 describes the vegetative structure, function, and composition of old forest ecosystems, while Part 3.3 describes hardwood ecosystems and Part 3.4 describes aquatic, riparian, and meadow ecosystems. This part focuses on botanical diversity in the Sierra Nevada, beginning with an overview of botanical resources and then presenting a more detailed analysis of the rarest elements of the flora, the threatened, endangered, and sensitive (TES) plants. The bryophytes (mosses and liverworts), lichens, and fungi of the Sierra have been little studied in comparison to the vascular flora. In the Pacific Northwest, studies of these groups have received increased attention due to the President’s Northwest Forest Plan. New and valuable scientific data is being revealed, some of which may apply to species in the Sierra Nevada. This section presents an overview of the vascular plant flora, followed by summaries of what is generally known about bryophytes, lichens, and fungi in the Sierra Nevada. Environmental Consequences of the alternatives are only analyzed for the Threatened, Endangered, and Sensitive plants, which include vascular plants, several bryophytes, and one species of lichen. 4.6.1. Vascular plants4.6.1. plants The diversity of topography, geology, and elevation in the Sierra Nevada combine to create a remarkably diverse flora (see Section 3.1 for an overview of landscape patterns and vegetation dynamics in the Sierra Nevada). More than half of the approximately 5,000 native vascular plant species in California occur in the Sierra Nevada, despite the fact that the range contains less than 20 percent of the state’s land base (Shevock 1996).

  • Ventura County Plant Species of Local Concern
    Checklist of Ventura County Rare Plants (Twenty-second Edition) CNPS, Rare Plant Program David L. Magney Checklist of Ventura County Rare Plants1 By David L. Magney California Native Plant Society, Rare Plant Program, Locally Rare Project Updated 4 January 2017 Ventura County is located in southern California, USA, along the east edge of the Pacific Ocean. The coastal portion occurs along the south and southwestern quarter of the County. Ventura County is bounded by Santa Barbara County on the west, Kern County on the north, Los Angeles County on the east, and the Pacific Ocean generally on the south (Figure 1, General Location Map of Ventura County). Ventura County extends north to 34.9014ºN latitude at the northwest corner of the County. The County extends westward at Rincon Creek to 119.47991ºW longitude, and eastward to 118.63233ºW longitude at the west end of the San Fernando Valley just north of Chatsworth Reservoir.
