  • Onopordum Acanthium): Safe for Australia, but Not the USA?
    Biological Control 41 (2007) 134–141 www.elsevier.com/locate/ybcon Lixus cardui, a biological control agent for scotch thistle (Onopordum acanthium): Safe for Australia, but not the USA? Joe Balciunas * USDA-ARS Exotic and Invasive Research Unit, Western Regional Research Center, 800 Buchanan St., Albany, CA 94710, USA Received 16 November 2006; accepted 19 December 2006 Available online 28 December 2006 Abstract Invasive exotic plants are often weeds in more than one country. After a biological control agent for a weed has been developed for use in one country, it is reasonable to consider using the same agent against the same weed in another country. ‘Transfer Projects’ can save considerable time and money, and they have been popular around the world. Lixus cardui Olivier (Coleoptera: Curculionidae), a weevil from Europe, was first used by Australian researchers to control Scotch thistle, Onopordum acanthium L. (Asteraceae). There are few close relatives of Scotch thistle in Australia, but that is not the case in North America, where scotch thistle is also an important weed. I initiated a project to test some of the agents released in Australia to see if they would be appropriate for release in the United States. Test plants, primarily Cirsium spp. thistles native to California, were exposed under both choice and no-choice conditions to two pop- ulations of L. cardui, one from Greece, the other from France. The latter may represent an undescribed species, and its test results are reported separately. Both strains of L. cardui weevils fed heavily and developed on some native North American thistles, at a level com- parable to the target weed, Scotch thistle.

The trail would be constructed, managed, and maintained by the Bear-Yuba Land Trust, a private non-profit organization. The project would expand an existing small, primitive trail and construct a new segment of trail on Sugarloaf Mountain, just north of Nevada City. The trail begins near the intersection of State Route 49 and North Bloomfield Road and terminates on Sugarloaf Mountain. The proposed trail includes a quarter-mile segment on an easement through private land. The project drawings are provided in Appendix A. Trail tread width will vary from 36 to 48 inches, depending on location and physical constraints, and constructed using a mini excavator, chainsaws, and a variety of hand tools.

  • Classification of the Vegetation Alliances and Associations of Sonoma County, California
    Classification of the Vegetation Alliances and Associations of Sonoma County, California Volume 1 of 2 – Introduction, Methods, and Results Prepared by: California Department of Fish and Wildlife Vegetation Classification and Mapping Program California Native Plant Society Vegetation Program For: The Sonoma County Agricultural Preservation and Open Space District The Sonoma County Water Agency Authors: Anne Klein, Todd Keeler-Wolf, and Julie Evens December 2015 ABSTRACT This report describes 118 alliances and 212 associations that are found in Sonoma County, California, comprising the most comprehensive local vegetation classification to date. The vegetation types were defined using a standardized classification approach consistent with the Survey of California Vegetation (SCV) and the United States National Vegetation Classification (USNVC) system. This floristic classification is the basis for an integrated, countywide vegetation map that the Sonoma County Vegetation Mapping and Lidar Program expects to complete in 2017. Ecologists with the California Department of Fish and Wildlife and the California Native Plant Society analyzed species data from 1149 field surveys collected in Sonoma County between 2001 and 2014. The data include 851 surveys collected in 2013 and 2014 through funding provided specifically for this classification effort. An additional 283 surveys that were conducted in adjacent counties are included in the analysis to provide a broader, regional understanding. A total of 34 tree-overstory, 28 shrubland, and 56 herbaceous alliances are described, with 69 tree-overstory, 51 shrubland, and 92 herbaceous associations. This report is divided into two volumes. Volume 1 (this volume) is composed of the project introduction, methods, and results. It includes a floristic key to all vegetation types, a table showing the full local classification nested within the USNVC hierarchy, and a crosswalk showing the relationship between this and other classification systems.

  • Key Baylands Habitats
    1 Key Baylands Habitats The Science Process adopted by the RMG has called for the Focus Teams to identify and describe the Key Habitats that comprise the baylands ecosystem. This step of the process enables the Focus Teams and the RMG to think about the spatial distribution of species support functions, as required to formulate habitat recommendations. In actuality, the Focus Teams considered species and habitats in an iterative way, such that there was overlap between Step 1, the selection of Key Species, and Step 2, the selection of Key Habitats. It has been recognized that the “species perspective” and the “habitat perspective” are complementary, not redundant, and that they are both needed for a comprehensive view of ecological form and function. It should be acknowledged that the list of Key Habitats is subject to change. The Focus Teams continue to exercise the scientific prerogative to add or delete habitats from the Key Habitat List. The start of habitat selection was complicated by unclear ecological definitions of common spatial terms. For example, there was a need to define the project boundary and associated habitats with respect to the distribution of Key Species, rather than by physiography, land use, or infrastructure. With regard to the open bays and straits, it was decided that the boundary would be the limit of shallow subtidal environments, which is approximated by the bottom contour at 20 feet below the zero tidal datum. With regard to the rivers and creeks, it was decided that the boundary of the project would be the usual upstream limit of the physical effects of the tides, as evidenced by aqueous salinity or hydrology.
