Canadian Field-Naturalist 118(4): 558-578. Based on field reconnaissance mainly in 2002 in the southern part of the Yukon and particularly in and adjacent to Kluane National Park, information is provided on geographically significant plant occurrences. Six native taxa, Atriplex alaskensis, Claytonia megarrhiza, Corispermum ochotense var. alaskanum, Oxytropis arctica, Polemonium acutiflorum forma lacteum and Polemo- nium boreale forma albiflorum, and four introduced taxa. Arabis caucasica, Camelina sativa, Senecio eremophilus, and Setaria viridis are reported new to the known flora of the Yukon Territory. Significant range extensions for 158 native and 21 introduced taxa are included. Parrya arctica, Armoracia rusticana, Atriplex patula and Papaver nudicaule ssp. nudicaule are excluded from the Yukon flora. Key Words: Vascular plants,Yukon Territory, flora, new records, range extensions, phytogeography.

In the past they were stewards of the land on which they lived, knowing that their health as people and a society was intricately tied to the health of the land. In response to the Berger enquiry of the mid 1970’s, the gov- ernment of Canada made a commitment to recognize this relationship by estab- lishing new programmes and institutions to give the Gwich’in people a role as stewards once again. One of the actions taken has been the creation of a formal land use planning process. Many people from all communities in the Gwich’in Settlement Area have worked diligently on land use planning in this formal process with the government since the 1980s.

  • August 20 - 31, 2016 Get Caught in the Spell of the Glorious Yukon River This Summer
    Aurora Yukon River Expedition August 20 - 31, 2016 Get caught in the spell of the glorious Yukon River this summer. The mysterious land beckons - it is calling you! Canoe through Klondike history, embark on a journey of summer dreams! The historic Yukon River runs through the ancient green-mantled, mountain ranges of the central Yukon. The trip starts at Pelly Crossing with two days on the Pelly River before we swing north to follow the Yukon right to Dawson City. Relaxed paddling on smooth current takes us through a remarkable region full of the lore of the Klondike Goldrush captured perfectly in the poetic words of Robert Service and the yarns of Jack London. The Yukon River has a heart of gold that shares the secrets of its recent history through its outdoor wilderness archives. A paddle down its length is a magical step into the past with the long-abandoned remains of cabins, paddle-wheelers, deserted communities, dredges and placer mines. This river bestows on paddlers not only the beauty and challenge of a northern canoe trip but also a remarkable encounter with the Klondike Gold Rush. The smooth and steady current of the Yukon River is ideal for novice to intermediate paddlers in search of a significant wilderness journey. There are no portages, some excellent hiking & fishing opportunities, beautiful & pristine scenery and surprisingly, very few mosquitoes to worry about at all as there is no standing water anywhere. There are many historic highlights along our journey: Pelly Farm is a remote operating wilderness family home; Stepping Stone, where we will stop for dinner, is an authentic Dawson Trail Roadhouse; Fort Selkirk is a beautifully restored Territorial Historic Site with a history that goes back 8000 years; Kirkman Creek is home to an operating placer mine and a bakery where we can enjoy fresh pie; and, Ancient Voices is a First Nation site where we can hike up to a riverside bluff.

  • Atlas of Rare Endemic Vascular Plants of the Arctic
    Atlas of Rare Endemic Vascular Plants of the Arctic Technical Report No. 3 About CAFF Theprogram for the Conservation of Arctic Flora and Fauna (CAFF) of the Arctic Council was established lo address the special needs of Arctic ecosystems, species and thcir habitats in the rapid ly developing Arctic region. Itwas initiated as one of'four programs of the Arctic Environmental Protcction Strategy (AEPS) which was adopted by Canada, Denmark/Greenland, Finland, lceland, Norway, Russia, Swcdcn and the United States through a Ministeria! Declaration at Rovaniemi, Finland in 1991. Other programs initi­ ated under the AEPS and overlaken hy the Are.tie Council are the ArcticMonitoring and assessment Programme (AMAP), the program for Emergency Prevention, Preparcd­ ness and Response (EPPR) and the program for Protection of the Arctic Marine Envi­ ronment (PAME). Sinceits inaugural mccti.ng in Ottawa, Canada in 1992, the CAFF program has provided scientists, conscrvation managers and groups, and indigenous people of the north with a distinct forum in which lo tackle a wide range of Arctic conservation issues at the cir­ cumpolar level. CAFF's main goals, which are achieved in keeping with the concepts of sustainable developrnertt and utilisation, are: • to conserve Arctic Jlora and fauna, thcir diversity and thcir habitats; • to protect the Arctic ecosystems from threats; • to improve conservation management laws, reg ulations and practices for the Arclic; • to integrale Arctic interests into global conservation fora. CAFF operates rhrough a system of Designated Agencies and National Representatives responsible for CAFF in thcir rcspcctivc countries.

Gryshko National Botanical Garden of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine, Timiryazevska Str., 01014 Kyiv, Ukraine 2National Museum of Natural History of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine, 15 Bohdana Khmelnytskoho Str., 01607 Кyiv, Ukraine. E-mail: [email protected] Received: 14.01.2019. Accepted: 25.02.2019 The genus Aubrieta Adans. includes 12-24 species naturally distributed in South-West Asia (mainly in Anatolia) and in South and Southeast Europe. Most of these species grow in mountain, subalpine and alpine altitudinal belts. The most common is A. deltoidea (L.) DC. It has long been known as a garden ornamental plant in Western Europe and in other countries. During the last 10-15 years, plants of this species began to be cultivated in Ukraine and in Eastern Europe. For the genus and for A. deltoidea, the nomenclature, basic synonymy, complete morphological description, ecological affinity, range, and also features of distribution in Ukraine and in Eastern Europe are given at the first time. Based on the analysis and generalization of ecological and biological specificity, features of plant distribution and cultivation, it was suggested that in the climatic conditions of Ukraine A. deltoidea plants may run wild and form spontaneous populations. Keywords: Aubrieta deltoidea; ornamental plants; potential ergasiophyte; flora of Ukraine Introduction According to modern data, the Brassicaceae Burnett family includes about 4,000 species, which belong to more than 300 genera and 52 tribes (Al-Shehbaz, 2012; Hohmann et al., 2015; BrassiBase, 2017).
