Fraga ABSTRACT: We present an annotated catalogue of the vascular flora of the upper Santa Ana River watershed, in the southern San Bernardino Mountains, in southern California. The catalogue is based on a floristic study, undertaken from 2008 to 2010. Approximately 65 team days were spent in the field and over 5,000 collections were made over the course of the study. The study area is ca. 155 km2 in area (40,000 ac) and ranges in elevation from 1402 m to 3033 m. The study area is botanically diverse with more than 750 taxa documented, including 56 taxa of conservation concern and 81 non-native taxa. Vegetation and habitat types in the area include chaparral, evergreen oak forest and woodland, riparian forest, coniferous forest, montane meadow, and pebble plain habitats.

  • Literature Cited
    Literature Cited Robert W. Kiger, Editor This is a consolidated list of all works cited in volumes 19, 20, and 21, whether as selected references, in text, or in nomenclatural contexts. In citations of articles, both here and in the taxonomic treatments, and also in nomenclatural citations, the titles of serials are rendered in the forms recommended in G. D. R. Bridson and E. R. Smith (1991). When those forms are abbre- viated, as most are, cross references to the corresponding full serial titles are interpolated here alphabetically by abbreviated form. In nomenclatural citations (only), book titles are rendered in the abbreviated forms recommended in F. A. Stafleu and R. S. Cowan (1976–1988) and F. A. Stafleu and E. A. Mennega (1992+). Here, those abbreviated forms are indicated parenthetically following the full citations of the corresponding works, and cross references to the full citations are interpolated in the list alphabetically by abbreviated form. Two or more works published in the same year by the same author or group of coauthors will be distinguished uniquely and consistently throughout all volumes of Flora of North America by lower-case letters (b, c, d, ...) suffixed to the date for the second and subsequent works in the set. The suffixes are assigned in order of editorial encounter and do not reflect chronological sequence of publication. The first work by any particular author or group from any given year carries the implicit date suffix “a”; thus, the sequence of explicit suffixes begins with “b”. Works missing from any suffixed sequence here are ones cited elsewhere in the Flora that are not pertinent in these volumes.

    This brochure lists common plant species found along the Big Bear Lake Pedal Path. Species occurrence varies across a rainfall gradient extending from Stanfield Cutoff (drier species) to the Big Bear Solar Observatory (more mesic species) To help locate plants, the path is divided into five sections on the map (A,B,C,D,&E). Please remain on the designated path to avoid damaging sensitive plant species. Please deposit any trash in waste receptacles at trailheads. For your safety, please watch out for bikes, runners, and strollers while looking for plants along the path For additional information please contact the Big Bear Discovery Center at (909)- 866-3437 Take pictures not flowers, PLEASE Compiled during the Spring of 2005 by: Scott Eliason (District Botanist) Kerry Myers (Botanist) Jason Bill (GIS Specialist) Alpine Pedal Path Plant Walk Plant Walk List Tree(T) Herb(H) Scientific Name Common Name Shrub(S) Section Native?

    UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles Southern California Climate and Vegetation Over the Past 125,000 Years from Lake Sequences in the San Bernardino Mountains A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Geography by Katherine Colby Glover 2016 © Copyright by Katherine Colby Glover 2016 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION Southern California Climate and Vegetation Over the Past 125,000 Years from Lake Sequences in the San Bernardino Mountains by Katherine Colby Glover Doctor of Philosophy in Geography University of California, Los Angeles, 2016 Professor Glen Michael MacDonald, Chair Long sediment records from offshore and terrestrial basins in California show a history of vegetation and climatic change since the last interglacial (130,000 years BP). Vegetation sensitive to temperature and hydroclimatic change tended to be basin-specific, though the expansion of shrubs and herbs universally signalled arid conditions, and landscpe conversion to steppe. Multi-proxy analyses were conducted on two cores from the Big Bear Valley in the San Bernardino Mountains to reconstruct a 125,000-year history for alpine southern California, at the transition between mediterranean alpine forest and Mojave desert. Age control was based upon radiocarbon and luminescence dating. Loss-on-ignition, magnetic susceptibility, grain size, x-ray fluorescence, pollen, biogenic silica, and charcoal analyses showed that the paleoclimate of the San Bernardino Mountains was highly subject to globally pervasive forcing mechanisms that register in northern hemispheric oceans. Primary productivity in Baldwin Lake during most of its ii history showed a strong correlation to historic fluctuations in local summer solar radiation values.

  • 83. South Mountaineer Creek (Mountaineer Creek)
    83. South Mountaineer Creek (Mountaineer Creek) (Keeler-Wolf 1991c) Location This candidate RNA (cRNA) lies within the Tule River Ranger District, Sequoia National Forest. It is approximately 37.4 miles (60 km) from the Tule River Ranger Station and within the Golden Trout Wilderness. Its boundaries include all or portions of sections 1, 2, 3, 10, 11, and 14 of T20S, R31E, and sections 35 and 36 of T19S, R31E (36°12'30"N., 118°35'W.), USGS Camp Nelson quad (fig. 165). Ecological subsection – Upper Batholith (M261Eq). Target Element Red Fir (Abies magnifica) Distinctive Features Figure 165—South The area includes several age groups of red fir represented throughout most of Mountaineer Creek the cRNA’s environmental range. Widespread associates of the red fir forest, cRNA such as western white pine (Pinus monticola) and lodgepole pine (Pinus contorta ssp. murrayana), also occur in typical conditions and densities on the cRNA. In addition to the identified target element, well-developed montane meadow and aquatic plant and fauna communities add value to this cRNA. Rare Plants: Two CNPS List 4 species occur in the cRNA. Sierra corydalis (Corydalis caseana ssp. caseana) is locally common and widespread in streamside and rivulet situations at 6900-8600 ft (2103-2621 m). Sierra corydalis is known in the S. Sierra Nevada only from Tulare County. Mineral King Draba (Draba cruciata) is restricted to rocky, N.-facing slopes at the highest elevations beneath open canopies of western white pine and red fir. Its location in the cRNA is within a mile (1.6 km) of the southernmost known occurrence for this taxon.

  • Terr–3 Special-Status Plant Populations
    TERR–3 SPECIAL-STATUS PLANT POPULATIONS 1.0 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY During 2001 and 2002, the review of existing information, agency consultation, vegetation community mapping, and focused special-status plant surveys were completed. Based on California Native Plant Society’s (CNPS) Electronic Inventory of Rare and Endangered Vascular Plants of California (CNPS 2001a), CDFG’s Natural Diversity Database (CNDDB; CDFG 2003), USDA-FS Regional Forester’s List of Sensitive Plant and Animal Species for Region 5 (USDA-FS 1998), U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Species List (USFWS 2003), and Sierra National Forest (SNF) Sensitive Plant List (Clines 2002), there were 100 special-status plant species initially identified as potentially occurring within the Study Area. Known occurrences of these species were mapped. Vegetation communities were evaluated to locate areas that could potentially support special-status plant species. Each community was determined to have the potential to support at least one special-status plant species. During the spring and summer of 2002, special-status plant surveys were conducted. For each special-status plant species or population identified, a CNDDB form was completed, and photographs were taken. The locations were mapped and incorporated into a confidential GIS database. Vascular plant species observed during surveys were recorded. No state or federally listed special-status plant species were identified during special- status plant surveys. Seven special-status plant species, totaling 60 populations, were identified during surveys. There were 22 populations of Mono Hot Springs evening-primrose (Camissonia sierrae ssp. alticola) identified.
