Vascular Plant List Vascular Plants of Sedgwick Reserve Checklist of the Vascular Plants of Sedgwick Reserve Santa Barbara County, California M. P. Williams, W. Ferren, J. Hamilton, L. Ballard, et al. Revised May 2016 This checklist of vascular plants includes taxa observed or collected at Sedgwick Reserve, a natural reserve owned by the University of California and managed by the UC Natural Reserve System out of the local NRS office at the University of California, Santa Barbara. Specimen voucher numbers are available by request for those specimens confirmed by local authorities and documented with collections that are deposited at the UCSB Herbarium. Taxa reported from casual field observations but not documented by specimens are designated “no collection.” Plants not native to California are indicated by an asterisk (*). This checklist will be updated as necessary. Please provide comments and additions. We request that voucher specimens, with labels or label data, for all additional taxa be deposited at the Sedgwick Reserve Herbarium and a duplicate filed at the UCSB Herbarium. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- LYCOPHYTES MAGNOLIIDS SELAGINELLACEAE - Spike-Moss Family CERATOPHYLLACEAE - Hornwort Family Selaginella bigelovii Underw.

  • California's Native Ferns
    CALIFORNIA’S NATIVE FERNS A survey of our most common ferns and fern relatives Native ferns come in many sizes and live in many habitats • Besides living in shady woodlands and forests, ferns occur in ponds, by streams, in vernal pools, in rock outcrops, and even in desert mountains • Ferns are identified by producing fiddleheads, the new coiled up fronds, in spring, and • Spring from underground stems called rhizomes, and • Produce spores on the backside of fronds in spore sacs, arranged in clusters called sori (singular sorus) Although ferns belong to families just like other plants, the families are often difficult to identify • Families include the brake-fern family (Pteridaceae), the polypody family (Polypodiaceae), the wood fern family (Dryopteridaceae), the blechnum fern family (Blechnaceae), and several others • We’ll study ferns according to their habitat, starting with species that live in shaded places, then moving on to rock ferns, and finally water ferns Ferns from moist shade such as redwood forests are sometimes evergreen, but also often winter dormant. Here you see the evergreen sword fern Polystichum munitum Note that sword fern has once-divided fronds. Other features include swordlike pinnae and round sori Sword fern forms a handsome coarse ground cover under redwoods and other coastal conifers A sword fern relative, Dudley’s shield fern (Polystichum dudleyi) differs by having twice-divided pinnae. Details of the sori are similar to sword fern Deer fern, Blechnum spicant, is a smaller fern than sword fern, living in constantly moist habitats Deer fern is identified by having separate and different looking sterile fronds and fertile fronds as seen in the previous image.

Geographic Range: 4. Habitat Invaded: 5. Historical Status and Rate of Spread in Wisconsin: 6. Proportion of potential range occupied: II. Invasive in Similar Climate YES NO X Zones United States: In 14 coastal California Counties and in Curry County, Oregon. In nursery in Washington. Canada: Nursery in British Columbia. Europe: Germany, the Netherlands, the United Kingdom, Poland, Spain, France, Belgium, and Sweden. III. Invasive in Similar Habitat YES X NO Types IV. Habitat Affected 1. Habitat affected: this disease thrives in cool, wet climates including areas in coastal California within the fog belt or in low- lying forested areas along stream beds and other bodies of water. Oaks associated with understory species that are susceptible to foliar infections are at higher risk of becoming infected. 2. Host plants: Forty-five hosts are regulated for this disease. These hosts have been found naturally infected by P. ramorum and have had Koch’s postulates completed, reviewed and accepted. Approximately fifty-nine species are associated with Phytophthora ramorum. These species are found naturally infected; P. ramorum has been cultured or detected with PCR but Koch’s postulates have not been completed or documented and reviewed. Northern red oak (Quercus rubra) is considered an associated host. See end of document for complete list of plant hosts. National Risk Model and Map shows susceptible forest types in the mid-Atlantic region of the United States.

  • Acmispon Helleri Notes
    Sorrie, B.A. 2015. Notes on morphology of Acmispon helleri (Fabaceae). Phytoneuron 2015-44. 1–3. Published 15 July 2015. ISSN 2153 733X NOTES ON MORPHOLOGY OF ACMISPON HELLERI (FABACEAE) BRUCE A. SORRIE University of North Carolina Herbarium North Carolina Botanical Garden Chapel Hill, North Carolina 27599-3280 ABSTRACT Recent field observations of Acmispon helleri in North Carolina point out a number of discrepancies or omissions regarding published descriptions, including stem color and pubescence, leaflet morphology and vestiture, and corolla color. Degree of foliation strongly corresponds with phenology –– loss of leaves and leaflets over time appears to be common. Acmispon helleri (Britt.) A.A. Heller is the eastern segregate of the western and midwestern A. americanus (Nutt.) Rydb. and is restricted to scattered locations in the piedmont of south-central Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, and northeastern Georgia (Weakley 2015). It was formerly placed within Lotus, sometimes as a full species, sometimes as a variety (see Brouillet 2008 and Weakley 2015 for synonymy). Observations of living plants at sites in the lower piedmont of Union County, North Carolina, in 2010 suggest that several morphological characters are at variance with published descriptions. The most detailed description available is that of Wilbur (1963); also very helpful are the illustrations in Chafin (2007). Radford, Ahles, and Bell (1968) followed Wilbur in writing their description. 1. Stem color. Neither Wilbur nor Radford, Ahles, and Bell mention this. In the Union County plants, stems are wholly reddish brown. Branches are green, but often reddish brown basally. 2. Pubescence of stems and branches. Wilbur: stems and branches are "glabrate (especially below) to moderately spreading villous-pubescent." In the Union County plants, stems are sparsely to moderately villous throughout and branches moderately to densely villous.

  • Outline of Angiosperm Phylogeny
    Outline of angiosperm phylogeny: orders, families, and representative genera with emphasis on Oregon native plants Priscilla Spears December 2013 The following listing gives an introduction to the phylogenetic classification of the flowering plants that has emerged in recent decades, and which is based on nucleic acid sequences as well as morphological and developmental data. This listing emphasizes temperate families of the Northern Hemisphere and is meant as an overview with examples of Oregon native plants. It includes many exotic genera that are grown in Oregon as ornamentals plus other plants of interest worldwide. The genera that are Oregon natives are printed in a blue font. Genera that are exotics are shown in black, however genera in blue may also contain non-native species. Names separated by a slash are alternatives or else the nomenclature is in flux. When several genera have the same common name, the names are separated by commas. The order of the family names is from the linear listing of families in the APG III report. For further information, see the references on the last page. Basal Angiosperms (ANITA grade) Amborellales Amborellaceae, sole family, the earliest branch of flowering plants, a shrub native to New Caledonia – Amborella Nymphaeales Hydatellaceae – aquatics from Australasia, previously classified as a grass Cabombaceae (water shield – Brasenia, fanwort – Cabomba) Nymphaeaceae (water lilies – Nymphaea; pond lilies – Nuphar) Austrobaileyales Schisandraceae (wild sarsaparilla, star vine – Schisandra; Japanese

The maps treat 172 taxa (species, subspecies, varieties, and hybrids, but not forms) based primarily on specimens in the major herbaria of Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, and Connecticut, with most data derived from the holdings of the New England Botanical Club Herbarium (NEBC). Brief synonymy (to account for names used in standard manuals and floras for the area and on herbarium specimens), habitat, chromosome information, and common names are also provided. KEY WORDS: flora, New England, atlas, distribution, Fabaceae This article is the eleventh in a series (Angelo & Boufford 1996, 1998, 2000, 2007, 2010, 2011a, 2011b, 2012a, 2012b, 2012c) that presents the distributions of the vascular flora of New England in the form of dot distribution maps at the county level (Figure 1). Seven more articles are planned. The atlas is posted on the internet at http://neatlas.org, where it will be updated as new information becomes available. This project encompasses all vascular plants (lycophytes, pteridophytes and spermatophytes) at the rank of species, subspecies, and variety growing independent of cultivation in the six New England states.
