  • "National List of Vascular Plant Species That Occur in Wetlands: 1996 National Summary."
    Intro 1996 National List of Vascular Plant Species That Occur in Wetlands The Fish and Wildlife Service has prepared a National List of Vascular Plant Species That Occur in Wetlands: 1996 National Summary (1996 National List). The 1996 National List is a draft revision of the National List of Plant Species That Occur in Wetlands: 1988 National Summary (Reed 1988) (1988 National List). The 1996 National List is provided to encourage additional public review and comments on the draft regional wetland indicator assignments. The 1996 National List reflects a significant amount of new information that has become available since 1988 on the wetland affinity of vascular plants. This new information has resulted from the extensive use of the 1988 National List in the field by individuals involved in wetland and other resource inventories, wetland identification and delineation, and wetland research. Interim Regional Interagency Review Panel (Regional Panel) changes in indicator status as well as additions and deletions to the 1988 National List were documented in Regional supplements. The National List was originally developed as an appendix to the Classification of Wetlands and Deepwater Habitats of the United States (Cowardin et al.1979) to aid in the consistent application of this classification system for wetlands in the field.. The 1996 National List also was developed to aid in determining the presence of hydrophytic vegetation in the Clean Water Act Section 404 wetland regulatory program and in the implementation of the swampbuster provisions of the Food Security Act. While not required by law or regulation, the Fish and Wildlife Service is making the 1996 National List available for review and comment.

RABELER University of Michigan Herbarium – EEB, 3600 Varsity Drive, Ann Arbor, MI 48108-2228, USA. [email protected] Four new combinations in Shivparvatia (Alsineae, Caryophyllaceae) are made to accommodate placement of all currently recognized taxa of Arenaria subg. Solitariae within the genus Shivparvatia. Keywords: Arenaria, nomenclature Introduction Sadeghian et al. (2015) completed the most recent, comprehensive analyses of Arenaria Linnaeus (1753: 423) in the broad sense. They confirmed the results of earlier studies by Harbaugh et al. (2010) and Greenberg and Donoghue (2011), showing that Arenaria s.s., Eremogone Fenzl (1833: 13), and Odontostemma Bentham ex G.Don (1831: 431) are each in different clades and are each monophyletic. In addition, they showed that Arenaria subg. Solitariae McNeill (1962: 128) is sister to Odontostemma and Arenaria subg. Dolophragma (Fenzl 1836: 63) McNeill (1962: 127) appears distantly related to any Arenaria species; both of these subgenera should also be excluded from Arenaria and treated as distinct genera. With only four names currently available in Shivparvatia Pusalkar & D.K.Singh (2015: 81), provided by Pusalkar & D.K.Singh (2015) for species found in India, four new combinations are required to allow placing the remaining taxa currently recognized in Arenaria subg. Solitariae within Shivparvatia. Methods The information about type specimens of the basionyms of the new combinations that I have included is based on examining protologues and searching major indices (Tropicos,org; JSTOR Global Plants) as well as websites of several individual herbaria, e.g.

Strict consensus of six minimal length 119-step trees derived from equally weighted maximum parsimony analysis of combined nuclear rDNA ITS1 and ITS2 sequences from 29 accessions of Angelica and outgroups indicated that Angelica purpuraefolia, known to be endemic to Korea, is the same species as A. amurensis. Comparisons of sequence pairs across both spacer regions revealed identity or 1-2 bp differences between A. purpuraefolia and A. amurensis. These results indicated that the two taxa are not distinguished taxonomically. Also, nuclear rDNA ITS regions are discussed as potential barcoding loci for identifying Korean Angelica. Keywords: Apiaceae, Angelica purpuraefolia, Angelica amurensis, DNA barcode The Korean endemic Angelica purpuraefolia Chung grows bioactivities have been protected by Korean patent law (Lee in mountainous areas in Gangwondo, Gyeongsangbugdo, and et al., 2005).

Abstract.— A checkHst of the vascular flora of the alpine zone (treeless vegetation above 9500 feet or 2900 m) of the Teton Range is presented. For each of the 216 species, si.x attributes are listed: flower color and shape, pollina- tion mode, life form, habitat preference, and whether each species is found in the Arctic. White and yellow flowered species are most common, and zoophilous species greatly predominate over anemophilous and apomictic species. Perennial/biennial herbs are the most common life form.

  • Native Plant List, Pdf Format
    Appendix A: City of Bellingham Native Plant List December 2020 The City of Bellingham Native Plant List (Figure 1) includes plant species that are native to Bellingham watersheds (Figure 2). The native plant list applies to all habitat types, including riparian, upland, and wetland areas. The list was developed using specimen records from the Consortium of Pacific Northwest Herbaria and Bellingham plant checklists curated by Don Knoke, a volunteer at the University of Washington Herbarium. To improve plant establishment and protect the genetic resources of our local plant populations, the City recommends using native plants that were grown from seeds or cuttings collected from the Puget Trough Ecoregion (Figure 3). Obtaining native plants grown from material collected from the Puget Trough Ecoregion will help ensure the plants are adapted to the unique environmental conditions of Bellingham watersheds and are genetically similar to our local plant populations. A more thorough discussion of the rational and selection process is provided in the City of Bellingham Public Works Department Native Plant Materials Selection Guidelines, December 2020. Figure 1.
