The four days of the meeting were filled with good company, wonderful views, and great botanizing. That’s INPS BOARD a hard combination to beat for any member of INPS. President: Stephen Love I remember the ride to the top of the ski lift at Grand Targhee. Having Vice­president: Tony McCammon Secretary: Janet Bala skied at the resort several times in the past, I was familiar with the terrain, but Treasurer: Karen Getusky had always seen it cloaked in snow rather than wildflowers.

The high elevation ridgeline was 821 W. Mustang Ave. carpeted with alpine beauties, most in full bloom. I found violet flowers of Hayden, ID 83835 Townsendia alpigena, clumps of strikingly blue Penstemon cyananthus, soft President: Derek Antonelli yellow flowers of Castilleja sulpherea, and two distinct varieties of Anemone Vice President: Vacant Secretary: Karen Williams multifida.

Although President: Bill Bridges many of us did not quite make the summit due to a lightning storm, the trip Vice President: Valdon Hancock was well worth the effort. On the lower trail, we saw Delphinium occidentale, Secretary/Treasurer: Lois Rohay fully 7 feet tall. We also saw a host of other species, including Spiraea PAHOVE CHAPTER splendens, Penstemon attenuatus, and Hypericum scouleri. In the upper PO Box 9451, Boise, ID 83707 bowls and ridgelines, we found Gentiana calycosa, Erigeron peregrinus, pahove.chapter[at]gmail.com Hedysarum boreale, and a white-flowered variant of Mertensia ciliata. On President: Karie Pappani the return trip, we observed an intriguing phenomenon associated with the Vice President: Elaine Walker columbine along the trail. At the top of the ridge, the columbine was typical of Secretary: Daniel Murphy Treasurer: Caroline Morris Aquilegia coerulea with white flowers, large floppy petals, and long spurs. As we moved down the trail, the plants morphed progressively to flowers with SAWABI CHAPTER pink and yellow coloration, smaller petals, and short spurs. By the time we 1506 N.

  • Asters of Yesteryear (Updated April 2018)
    Asters of Yesteryear (Updated April 2018) About this Update: The document was originally posted in a shorter version, to accompany the brief article "Where Have all our Asters Gone?" in the Fall 2017 issue of Sego Lily. In that version it consisted simply of photos of a number of plants that had at some time been included in Aster but that no longer are, as per Flora of North America. In this version I have added names to the photos to indicate how they have changed since their original publication: Date and original name as published (Basionym) IF name used in Intermountain Flora (1994) UF name used in A Utah Flora (1983-2016) FNA name used in Flora of North America (2006) I have also added tables to show the renaming of two groups of species in the Astereae tribe as organized in Intermountain Flora. Color coding shows how splitting of the major genera largely follows fault lines already in place No color Renamed Bright Green Conserved Various Natural groupings $ Plant not in Utah It is noteworthy how few species retain the names used in 1994, but also how the renaming often follows patterns already observed. Asters of Yesteryear (Updated April 2018) Here are larger photos (16 inches wide or tall at normal screen resolution of 72 dpi) of the plants shown in Sego Lily of Fall 2017, arranged by date of original publication. None of them (except Aster amellus on this page) are now regarded as true asters – but they all were at one stage in their history. Now all are in different genera, most of them using names that were published over 100 years ago.

    Wildflower Hot Spots of the Eastern Sierra Welcome to the Eastern Sierra… THE EASTERN SIERRA truly is a land of superlatives: Elevations you will visit using this guide range from the oldest living trees on the planet (bristlecone pines); 3,300 feet (1,005 meters) at Fossil Falls to 10,200 feet the highest peak in the contiguous United States (Mt. (3,100 meters) at the Mosquito Flat trailhead in Rock Whitney); the youngest mountain range in North Creek. Many of the peaks around you soar to more than America (Mono Craters); one of the oldest lakes in 13,000 feet, and a side trip into Death Valley will plunge North America (Mono Lake). All of these and more are you down to below sea level at Badwater. within an easy day’s drive of each other. The spectacular landscapes of this area draw a worldwide audience, and with good reason. The elevation range combined with the diverse geologic environment results in a wide variety of vegetation communities. Three major biotic provinces—the Mojave Geology field classes often visit the area for the Desert, Great Basin, and Sierra Nevada—all converge in relatively easy access to a wide variety of geologic this area. Dozens of plant communities and thousands formations and rock types.

  • Washington Flora Checklist a Checklist of the Vascular Plants of Washington State Hosted by the University of Washington Herbarium
    Washington Flora Checklist A checklist of the Vascular Plants of Washington State Hosted by the University of Washington Herbarium The Washington Flora Checklist aims to be a complete list of the native and naturalized vascular plants of Washington State, with current classifications, nomenclature and synonymy. The checklist currently contains 3,929 terminal taxa (species, subspecies, and varieties). Taxa included in the checklist: * Native taxa whether extant, extirpated, or extinct. * Exotic taxa that are naturalized, escaped from cultivation, or persisting wild. * Waifs (e.g., ballast plants, escaped crop plants) and other scarcely collected exotics. * Interspecific hybrids that are frequent or self-maintaining. * Some unnamed taxa in the process of being described. Family classifications follow APG IV for angiosperms, PPG I (J. Syst. Evol. 54:563?603. 2016.) for pteridophytes, and Christenhusz et al. (Phytotaxa 19:55?70. 2011.) for gymnosperms, with a few exceptions. Nomenclature and synonymy at the rank of genus and below follows the 2nd Edition of the Flora of the Pacific Northwest except where superceded by new information. Accepted names are indicated with blue font; synonyms with black font. Native species and infraspecies are marked with boldface font. Please note: This is a working checklist, continuously updated. Use it at your discretion. Created from the Washington Flora Checklist Database on September 17th, 2018 at 9:47pm PST.

  • Exhibit E: Botanical and Wildlife Resources
    E5.0 BOTANICAL AND WILDLIFE RESOURCES This section on the terrestrial resources (plants and wildlife) associated with the Klamath Hydroelectric Project (Project) contains the following elements: • A description of the existing botanical and wildlife resources in the study area (see Figure E5.1-1) • A discussion of agency consultation related to terrestrial resources • Summaries of the studies conducted by PacifiCorp on wildlife and vegetation • A summary of proposed enhancement measures • A discussion of continuing impacts E5.1 HISTORICAL TERRESTRIAL RESOURCES The terrestrial resources in the Project vicinity historically have been affected by humans for a long period of time. Much of the information on Native American use of the Klamath River Canyon comes from the archaeological investigations conducted by Gleason (2001). Native Americans have been part of the Klamath River ecosystem for at least the last 7,500 years (Gleason, 2001). The Upland Takelma, Shasta, Klamath, and Modoc tribes all used various portions of the study area; the Yurok Tribe historically used the lands along the Lower Klamath River. Before settlement by Europeans, Native Americans affected terrestrial resources through clearing vegetation for villages; harvesting plants and animals for food, medicine, and other uses; and using fire to manage vegetation. The most intensive uses occurred close to the river. Apparently, many of the flat terraces in the canyon were used at one time or another as village- sized settlements. The existing Topsy Grade Road is near the site of a Native American trail. Beginning in about 1870, homesteaders established ranches in the Klamath River Canyon. Apparently, the canyon was mostly unoccupied by any Native American tribes after this time.

PENNY1 1Conservation Data Centre, British Columbia Ministry of Environment, Ecosystems Branch, P.O. Box 9993 Stn Prov Govt, Victoria, British Columbia V8W 9R7 Canada. Penny, Jenifer L. 2006. A tribute to George Wayne Douglas 1938–2005. Canadian Field-Naturalist 120(2): 135–146. Coming from humble beginnings, George Wayne Douglas, with his determination and strong spirit, estab- lished himself as one of British Columbia’s most res- pected botanists. I first met George in 1995 when I began working with him at the British Columbia Con- servation Data Centre (CDC). In time, I came to know him as an adept field botanist, a knowledgeable ecolo- gist, an accomplished author, a practical taxonomist, a cunning businessman, a conservationist at heart, and a generous mentor. During our numerous field trips, George often talked about writing his memoirs and enjoyed recounting the stories and adventures that would go into the chapters. He had a lot of different experiences throughout his life that would have result- ed in an interesting read. He was a born leader: he had a strong character, held his ground on issues, and had a critical, but practical approach. George had a vision for botany in British Columbia and he brought that vision to fruition. George (known to family and close friends as Wayne) was born in the Royal Columbian hospital in New Westminster on 22 June 1938. He spent his early years exploring the bushes around the base of Burna- by Mountain near Vancouver, British Columbia, this may have been the root of his inspiration to study botany and ecology later in his life.

This information represents what was known at the end of the 1994 field season. These maps may not represent the most recent information on distribution and range for these taxa but it does illustrate geographic distribution across the assessment area. For many of these species, this is the first time information has been compiled on this scale. For the continued viability of many of these taxa, it is imperative that we begin to manage for them across their range and across administrative boundaries. Of the 173 taxa analyzed, there are maps for 153 taxa. For those taxa that were not tracked by heritage programs, we were not able to generate range maps.
