    A Floristic Evaluation of the Natural Plant Communities and Grounds Occurring at The Key West Botanical Garden, Stock Island, Monroe County, Florida Steven W. Woodmansee [email protected] January 20, 2006 Submitted by The Institute for Regional Conservation 22601 S.W. 152 Avenue, Miami, Florida 33170 George D. Gann, Executive Director Submitted to CarolAnn Sharkey Key West Botanical Garden 5210 College Road Key West, Florida 33040 and Kate Marks Heritage Preservation 1012 14th Street, NW, Suite 1200 Washington DC 20005 Introduction The Key West Botanical Garden (KWBG) is located at 5210 College Road on Stock Island, Monroe County, Florida. It is a 7.5 acre conservation area, owned by the City of Key West. The KWBG requested that The Institute for Regional Conservation (IRC) conduct a floristic evaluation of its natural areas and grounds and to provide recommendations. Study Design On August 9-10, 2005 an inventory of all vascular plants was conducted at the KWBG. All areas of the KWBG were visited, including the newly acquired property to the south. Special attention was paid toward the remnant natural habitats. A preliminary plant list was established. Plant taxonomy generally follows Wunderlin (1998) and Bailey et al. (1976). Results Five distinct habitats were recorded for the KWBG. Two of which are human altered and are artificial being classified as developed upland and modified wetland. In addition, three natural habitats are found at the KWBG. They are coastal berm (here termed buttonwood hammock), rockland hammock, and tidal swamp habitats. Developed and Modified Habitats Garden and Developed Upland Areas The developed upland portions include the maintained garden areas as well as the cleared parking areas, building edges, and paths.

    PLANT Psilotum nudum Skeleton Fork-fern AUS SA AMLR Endemism Life History Centre and are now held in captivity due to fears of rock destabilisation and habitat modification causing - E E - Perennial further decline (J. Quarmby pers. comm. 2009). A propagation program is being implemented and Family PSILOTACEAE plants will be reintroduced in the future (J. Quarmby pers. comm. 2009). There are no pre-1983 records.2 Habitat Occurs on seeping rock faces.4 At Mount Bold Reservoir plants occurred in crevice just above head height (near high water mark in winter), growing under an overhang of rock on vertical rock face.3 Type of rock substrate may be a limiting factor in distribution (T. Jury pers. comm.). Within the AMLR the preferred broad vegetation group is Riparian.2 Within the AMLR the species’ degree of habitat specialisation is classified as ‘Very High’.2 Biology and Ecology Primitive system of absorbing nutrients and water Photo: © Peter Lang through rhizomes is inefficient so the plant forms a relationship with a mycorrhizal fungus.5 Conservation Significance In SA, the distribution is confined within the AMLR, Aboriginal Significance disjunct from the remaining extant distribution in other Post-1983 records indicate the entire AMLR distribution States. Within the AMLR the species’ relative area of occurs in Peramangk Nation (bordering Kaurna occupancy is classified as ‘Extremely Restricted’. Nation). Relative to all AMLR extant species, the species' taxonomic uniqueness is classified as ‘Very High’.2 Threats Proposed increase in the storage capacity of Mount Description Bold Reservoir posed a significant threat (D.

New Zealand: Kermadec Islands (Raoul Island), North Island (North Cape south to the southern shore of Lake Taupo and Tokaanu). HABITAT Coastal to monatane. In the northern part of its range Psilotum is usually a local component of coastal forest where it grows on the forest floor, in rock piles and on cliff faces. It is also occasionally epiphytic on trees such as pohutukawa (Metrosideros excelsa). On Raoul Island it is an abundant ground cover in the “dry” forest type on that island. In the North Island outside Northland and the Coromandel Peninsula, Psilotum becomes increasingly tied to geothermally active sites where it usually grows on cliff faces and warm soil around fumaroles. In the ignimbrite country north of Lake Taupo, and also along the western shore of Lake Taupo, Psilotum is at times a very common species growing in the joints of columnar ignimbrite. On the western shoreline of Lake Taupo in this type of habitat plants can grow very large, and they may grow right down into the flood-line where they are often associated with Lindsaea viridis. Around Auckland City Psilotum is a very common, though easily overlooked plant of stone walls (especially basalt or concrete retaining walls).

The earliest plant fossils are from terrestrial deposits, although some plants have since returned to the water. All plant cells have a cell wall containing the carbohydrate cellulose, and often have plastids in their cytoplasm. The plant life cycle has an alternation between haploid (gametophyte) and diploid (sporophyte) generations. There are more than 300,000 living species of plants known, as well as an extensive fossil record. Plants divide into two groups: plants lacking lignin-impregnated conducting cells (the nonvascular plants) and those containing lignin-impregnated conducting cells (the vascular plants). Living groups of nonvascular plants include the bryophytes: liverworts, hornworts, and mosses. Vascular plants are the more common plants like pines, ferns, corn, and oaks. The phylogenetic relationships within the plant kingdom are shown in Figure 1. Figure 1. Phylogenetic reconstruction of the possible relationships between plant groups and their green algal ancestor. Note this drawing proposes a green algal group, the Charophytes, as possible ancestors for the plants.
