Eutrochium Maculatum Var. Bruneri Eutrochium maculatum (L.) E.E. Lamont var. bruneri (A. Gray) E.E. Lamont synonym: Eupatorium maculatum L. var. bruneri (A. Gray) Breitung, Eupatoriadelphus maculatus (L.) R.M. King & H. Rob. var. bruneri (A. Gray) R.M. King & H. Rob. spotted Joe-Pye weed Asteraceae - aster family status: State Possibly Extirpated - rank: G5T4T5Q / SH General Description: Large, stout, fibrous-rooted perennial, 6-20 dm tall; stems densely hairy and usually purple-spotted. Leaves whorled, mostly in fours or fives, lance-elliptic to lanceolate or lance-ovate, gradually or abruptly narrowed to the petiole, 6-20 x 2-7 cm, sharply serrate, and densely covered beneath with short, spreading, curly hairs. Floral Characteristics: Discoid flowering heads clustered in corymblike, flat-topped inflorescences; 9-22 purple tubular flowers per head. Involucre 6.5-9 mm high, often purplish, with overlapping bracts. Illustration by John H. Rumely, ©1955 University of Washington Press Fruits: Glandular achenes with pappus of many capillary bristles. Rangewide the taxon is identifiable from July to September; in WA it has been found from late August to early September. Identification Tips: This is a distinctive plant that reaches up to 2 m tall, with brilliant purple flowers and whorled leaves. Range: Known from B.C. to Ontario, ID, MT, ND, MN, south to AZ, NM, KS, and MO. Habitat/Ecology: Swamps, wet meadows, bogs, stream banks, and other moist open places often associated with limestone, from 200 to 2500 m (650-8200 ft). © Ben Legler Comments: In WA this taxon was originally collected in 1937, then again in 1943. Since then no extant individuals have been observed. Swamps in Whatcom Co. should be surveyed. Agriculture and the spread of reed canarygrass (Phalaris arundinacea) have changed much of the habitat for this taxon. It is also rare in B.C ., KS, MT, and WY.

Mihail Sadoveanu, nr. 3, 700490–Iaşi, Romania Corresponding author: [email protected] This second part of the paper about the vascular flora of Rarău Massif listed approximately half of the whole number of the species registered by the authors in their field trips or already included in literature on the same area. Other taxa have been added to the initial list of plants, so that, the total number of taxa registered by the authors in Rarău Massif amount to 1443 taxa (1133 species and 310 subspecies, varieties and forms). There was signaled out the alien taxa on the surveyed area (18 species) and those dubious presence of some taxa for the same area (17 species). Also, there were listed all the vascular plants, protected by various laws or regulations, both internal or international, existing in Rarău (i.e. 189 taxa). Finally, there has been assessed the degree of wild flora conservation, using several indicators introduced in literature by Nowak, as they are: conservation indicator (C), threat conservation indicator) (CK), sozophytisation indicator (W), and conservation effectiveness indicator (E). Key words: Vascular flora, Rarău Massif, Romania, conservation indicators. 1. INTRODUCTION A comprehensive analysis of Rarău flora, in terms of plant diversity, taxonomic structure, biological, ecological and phytogeographic characteristics, as well as in terms of the richness in endemics, relict or threatened plant species was published in our previous note (see Oprea & Sîrbu 2012).

We investigated whether a root-feeding moth found closely associated with oxeye daisy in Europe could be used as a biological control agent for the plant when weedy. We found that the moth could develop on 11 out of 74 plant species that we tested in laboratory conditions when it was given no choice of plants.

  • Additions to the New Flora of Vermont
    Gilman, A.V. Additions to the New Flora of Vermont. Phytoneuron 2016-19: 1–16. Published 3 March 2016. ISSN 2153 733X ADDITIONS TO THE NEW FLORA OF VERMONT ARTHUR V. GILMAN Gilman & Briggs Environmental 1 Conti Circle, Suite 5, Barre, Vermont 05641 [email protected] ABSTRACT Twenty-two species of vascular plants are reported for the state of Vermont, additional to those reported in the recently published New Flora of Vermont. These are Agrimonia parviflora, Althaea officinalis , Aralia elata , Beckmannia syzigachne , Bidens polylepis , Botrychium spathulatum, Carex panicea , Carex rostrata, Eutrochium fistulosum , Ficaria verna, Hypopitys lanuginosa, Juncus conglomeratus, Juncus diffusissimus, Linum striatum, Lipandra polysperma , Matricaria chamomilla, Nabalus racemosus, Pachysandra terminalis, Parthenocissus tricuspidata , Ranunculus auricomus , Rosa arkansana , and Rudbeckia sullivantii. Also new are three varieties: Crataegus irrasa var. irrasa , Crataegus pruinosa var. parvula , and Viola sagittata var. sagittata . Three species that have been reported elsewhere in 2013–2015, Isoetes viridimontana, Naias canadensis , and Solidago brendiae , are also recapitulated. This report and the recently published New Flora of Vermont (Gilman 2015) together summarize knowledge of the vascular flora of Vermont as of this date. The New Flora of Vermont was recently published by The New York Botanical Garden Press (Gilman 2015). It is the first complete accounting of the vascular flora of Vermont since 1969 (Seymour 1969) and adds more than 200 taxa to the then-known flora of the state. However, the manuscript for the New Flora was finalized in spring 2013 and additional species are now known: those that have been observed more recently, that have been recently encountered (or re-discovered) in herbaria, or that were not included because they were under study at the time of finalization.

  • Sedge – Mixed Forb Fen
    Sedge – Mixed Forb Fen System: Palustrine Subsystem: Herbaceous PA Ecological Group(s): Peatland Wetland Global Rank: GNR State Rank: S1 General Description These are open, sedge-dominated wetlands that usually occur on organic substrate (sedge peat), saturated throughout most of the year by base-rich groundwater. These sites usually lack the distinct seepage areas associated with other fen types. Sedge species dominate, including prairie sedge (Carex prairea), Atlantic sedge (Carex sterilis), and/or sedge (Carex tetanica). Other species may include mountain-mint (Pycnanthemum virginianum), blue vervain (Verbena hastata), starry false Solomon's- seal (Maianthemum stellatum), common cat-tail (Typha latifolia), willow-herb (Epilobium leptophyllum), bedstraw (Galium tinctorium), sensitive fern (Onoclea sensibilis), jewelweed (Impatiens capensis), swamp thistle (Cirsium muticum), and Greek valerian (Polemonium reptans). Rank Justification Critically imperiled in the jurisdiction because of extreme rarity or because of some factor(s) such as very steep declines making it especially vulnerable to extirpation from the jurisdiction. Identification Presence of calcareous indicator plant species such as Atlantic sedge (Carex sterilis), sedge (Carex tetanica), and mountain-mint (Pycnanthemum virginianum) Peat is usually present. Dominance of grass-like plants Surface water pH is between 6.0 and 7.9 during the growing season. Characteristic Species Herbs Prairie sedge (Carex prairea) Atlantic sedge (Carex sterilis) Wood's sedge (Carex tetanica) Mountain-mint (Pycnanthemum virginianum) Blue vervain (Verbena hastata) Starflower (Maianthemum stellatum) Common cat-tail (Typha latifolia) Willow-herb (Epilobium leptophyllum) Bedstraw (Galium tinctorium) Sensitive fern (Onoclea sensibilis) Jewelweed (Impatiens capensis) Swamp thistle (Cirsium muticum) Spreading Jacob's-ladder (Polemonium reptans) Baltic rush (Juncus arcticus var. littoralis) Spotted joe-pye-weed (Eutrochium maculatum) Exotic Species Common reed (Phragmites australis ssp.

The Center is supported by more than 775,000 members and activists throughout the country. The Center works to secure a future for all species, great or small, hovering on the brink of extinction. The Center for Food Safety (“CFS”) is a nonprofit public interest organization established in 1997 whose mission centers on protecting public health and the environment by curbing the adverse impacts of industrial agriculture and food production systems on public health, the environment, and animal welfare, and by instead promoting sustainable forms of agriculture. As particularly relevant here, CFS is the leading nonprofit working on the adverse impacts of genetically engineered crops and neonicotinoid pesticides. CFS and its over half-a-million members are concerned about the impacts of industrial agriculture on biodiversity generally, and on monarch butterflies specifically.
