ISBN 0-9509806-7-6 Editor of BPS Special Publications: B.A. Thomas Published by THE BRITISH PTERIDOLOGICAL SOCIETY, c/o Department of Botany, The Natural History Museum, Cromwell Road, London SW7 5BD, UK The British Pteridological Society is a Registered Charity, No. 1092399 Printed by Purple Edge Graphics Ltd, 130a Drymen Road, Bearsden, Glasgow G61 3RB, UK 1 Introduction The ancestor of this book was Atlas of Ferns of the British Isles (1978), edited by A.C. Jermy, H.R. Arnold, L. Farrell & F.H. Perring, and published jointly by the Botanical Society of the British Isles (BSBI) and the British Pteridological Society (BPS). In the intervening years since 1978, members of both Societies have been active in recording the distribution of the pteridophytes of the British Isles and Ireland. However, only the BSBI had a formal role in producing the New Atlas of the British & Irish Flora, edited by C.D. Preston, D.A. Pearman & T.D. Dines, and published by Oxford University Press in 2002. This monumental book of 910 pages, in a format 20% larger than A4, and weighing nearly 10 lbs, presents distribution maps of 2412 taxa, of which the ferns and fern allies comprise only 93, or less than 4%. The purpose of the present handbook was therefore to make available in a compact form only the 93 distribution maps of ferns and fern allies, so that those field naturalists with a primary interest in pteridophytes would have a conveniently portable source for reference. Again for reasons of convenient access, we decided to list the taxa in alphabetical order of genus and species, rather than systematically within families. Thus the entries start with Adiantum capillus-veneris and end with Woodsia ilvensis, as in a dictionary. There is therefore no need to look in the index to find a Polystichum, which is no longer near to Dryopteris, despite both being in the Dryopteridaceae. Adherence to this principle means that the fern allies take their alphabetical place in the series, instead of being segregated in groups separate from the ferns. Likewise the neophytes, such as Dicksonia antarctica and Onoclea sensibilis, are in their alphabetical position among the native species. Nevertheless to allow rapid overview of contents, we provide on the back cover a list of all the 93 maps in the present compilation. At the end of the handbook are the References cited in the texts that accompany each map, while the inside back cover has an Index of Common Names. The New Atlas has a few maps of native taxa that were not in the 1978 Atlas of Ferns. Thus the gametophyte stages of Trichomanes speciosum is now included, as is the subspecies pachyrachis of Asplenium trichomanes. There are now maps of several neophytes: Blechnum chilense, Cyrtomium falcatum, Dicksonia antarctica, Matteuccia struthiopteris, Onoclea sensibilis, Phymatosorus diversifolius, Polystichum munitum and Pteris cretica Because some of these neophyte maps were only available on CD-ROM, the format is different from those in the New Atlas, It is notable that not all the taxa in the 1978 Atlas of Ferns were carried forward into the 2002 New Atlas. Thus in the latter, the only pteridophyte hybrids are: Dryopteris x complexa, Dryopteris x deweveri, Equisetum x trachyodon (E. hyemale x E. variegatum), Equisetum x litorale (E. arvense x E. fluviatile), Polypodium x mantoniae and Polystichum x bicknellii. By contrast, the 1978 Atlas had maps of all 6 of the above hybrids plus (remarkably!) maps of the following 25 others: Asplenium x alternifolium, Asplenium x clermontiae, Asplenium x confluens, Asplenium x contrei, Asplenium x jacksonii, Asplenium x microdon, Asplenium x murbeckii, Asplenium x sarniense, Asplenium x ticinense, Diphasiastrum x issleri, Dryopteris x ambrosiae, Dryopteris x brathaica, Dryopteris x. mantoniae, Dryopteris x pseudoabbreviata, Dryopteris x tavelii, Dryopteris x uliginosa, , Equisetum fluviatile x palustre, Equisetum x font-queri, Equisetum x litorale, Equisetum x moorei, Equisetum x 2 rothmaleri, Polypodium x font-queri, Polypodium x shivasiae, Polystichum x illyricum and Polystichum x lonchitiforme. It is therefore a challenge, particularly for members of the BPS, to update the distribution information on the pteridophyte hybrids in the United Kingdom and in the Republic of Ireland. For that purpose the distribution maps from the 1978 Atlas of Ferns of the British Isles would be the starting point. This also emphasises that mapping of plant distribution, by its nature, is an on-going process and the information published in this handbook is only a snapshot of what had been reported in time for inclusion in the 2002 New Atlas. For later information, readers should also consult the National Biodiversity Network (NBN) website at http://www.searchnbn.net/ In the quarter-century since the 1978 Atlas there have been some significant changes in nomenclature . For example, Dryopteris affinis was not a listed species in 1978, let alone having the morphotypes which have been recognized in recent decades. Readers will also find Asplenium cuneifolium, the species associated with serpentine rocks in Continental Europe, as no longer on the list of current pteridophytes for Great Britain and Ireland For the most part we have used the same names as in the 2002 New Atlas, which in turn are based on those of Stace (1997) in the New Flora of the British Isles, edn 2 (Cambridge: Cambridge University Press). However, we have changed Ceterach officinarum to Asplenium ceterach, and Phyllitis scolopendrium to Asplenium scolopendrium. We have kept Athyrium flexile as a species, despite the recent work (McHaffie, 1999) that places it as a variety of Athyrium distentifolium. We have also followed the style of the 2002 New Atlas in not citing authorities for the specific names, believing that in so doing we are not allowing ambiguities. We also believe that little of relevance to species distribution is lost by our not including the pteridophyte family in the information with each taxon. The 93 maps that make up the main part of this handbook reflect an enormous amount of dedicated and expert work by individuals too numerous to list here. The reader is therefore referred to the 2002 New Atlas itself for information on how the distribution maps were compiled, who did the work in the field and at the computer, and the rationale for the underlying organization of the whole enterprise. Such perusal of the main source will also allow the pteridophytes to be placed within the context of the other 96% of vascular plant taxa. The texts that accompany each of the pteridophyte maps follow a standard pattern of four paragraphs. 1. Habitat and altitudinal range; 2. Trends in the distribution of the species; 3. The wider distribution of the species; and 4. Key references. In a few instances we have inserted minor corrections or comments. The production of this handbook would not have been possible without friendly permission being given by the copyright holder to reproduce the maps and accompanying text from the New Atlas and its accompanying CD-ROM. We are therefore extremely grateful to Her Majesty’s Stationery Office for granting a license to the BPS to reproduce the maps and texts for this handbook. We also offer sincere thanks to Oxford University Press for providing the original electronic files for reproduction of the distribution maps. Finally, we see this handbook as furthering the Objects of the BPS, as stated in the Society’s Constitution, viz: to promote and encourage the cultivation of ferns and other pteridophytes and to further the study of their taxonomy, distribution, conservation and ecology through publications, meetings and grants.

    African countries and neighbouring islands covered by the Synopsis. S T R E L I T Z I A 23 Synopsis of the Lycopodiophyta and Pteridophyta of Africa, Madagascar and neighbouring islands by J.P. Roux Pretoria 2009 S T R E L I T Z I A This series has replaced Memoirs of the Botanical Survey of South Africa and Annals of the Kirstenbosch Botanic Gardens which SANBI inherited from its predecessor organisations. The plant genus Strelitzia occurs naturally in the eastern parts of southern Africa. It comprises three arborescent species, known as wild bananas, and two acaulescent species, known as crane flowers or bird-of-paradise flowers. The logo of the South African National Biodiversity Institute is based on the striking inflorescence of Strelitzia reginae, a native of the Eastern Cape and KwaZulu-Natal that has become a garden favourite worldwide. It sym- bolises the commitment of the Institute to champion the exploration, conservation, sustain- able use, appreciation and enjoyment of South Africa’s exceptionally rich biodiversity for all people.

This comprises the largest and highest area of montane habitat in Britain, much of which is in a relatively pristine condition. It contains the main summits and plateaux with their associated corries, rocky cliffs, crags, boulder fields, scree slopes and the higher parts of some glens and passes. The vegeta- tion is influenced by factors such as exposure, snow cover and soil type. The main zone is considered to be one of the most spectacular mountain areas in Britain and is recognised nationally and internationally for the quality of its geology, geomorphology and topographic features, and associated soils and biodiversity. c14.5% of the Cairngorms Partnership area (75,000ha) is land above 600m asl. Upland heathland is the most extensive habitat type in the Cairngorms Partnership area, covering c41% of the area, frequently in mosaics with blanket bog.

    Isles of Scilly Naturetrek Tour Report 14 - 21 September 2019 Porthcressa and the Garrison Red Squirrel Grey Seals Birdwatching on Peninnis Head Report & Images by Andrew Cleave Naturetrek Mingledown Barn Wolf's Lane Chawton Alton Hampshire GU34 3HJ UK T: +44 (0)1962 733051 E: [email protected] W: www.naturetrek.co.uk Tour Report Isles of Scilly Tour participants: Andrew Cleave (leader) plus 12 Naturetrek clients Summary Our early-autumn week on the Isles of Scilly was timed to coincide with the bird migration which is easily observed on the islands. Our crossings to and from Scilly on Scillonian III enabled us to see seabirds in their natural habitat, and the many boat trips we took during the week gave us close views of plenty of the resident and migrant birds which were feeding and sheltering closer to shore. We had long walks on all of the inhabited islands and as well as birds, managed to see some marine mammals, many rare plants and some interesting intertidal marine life. Informative evening lectures by resident experts were well received and we also sampled lovely food in many of the pubs and cafés on the islands. Our waterfront accommodation in Schooners Hotel was very comfortable and ideally placed for access to the harbour and Hugh Town. Day 1 Saturday 14th September We began our trip in Penzance harbour where we boarded Scillonian III for the crossing to Scilly. Conditions were fine for the crossing and those of us up on deck had good views of seabirds, including Gannets, Fulmars and winter-plumage auks as we followed the Cornish coast and then headed out into the Atlantic.

The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service initially developed the list in order to provide an appendix to the Classification of Wetlands and Deepwater Habitats of the United States (FWS/OBS 79/31) to assist in the field identification of wetlands. Plant species that occur in wetlands, as used in the National List, are defined as species that have demonstrated an ability to achieve maturity and reproduce in an environment where all or portions of the soil within the root zone become, periodically or continuously, saturated or inundated during the growing season.
