A Unique Raised Bog at Urbana, Ohio.*
A UNIQUE RAISED BOG AT URBANA, OHIO.* ROBERT B. GORDON, Ohio State University. Located just north of the Champaign County Fair Grounds at Urbana, Ohio, is a unique dome-shaped bog, covered with shrubby vegetation for the most part, in which the center is raised at least ten feet above the margins. An old road crosses the bog. I have been told that it was once the main thorofare from Urbana to Columbus. Horses and wagons passed over it, I suppose, the drivers never realizing that a mat of fibrous roots less than one foot thick was all that held them over a body of water twelve feet in depth. Raised bogs, called "high moors" and "Hochmoore" in foreign literature, have long been known throughout Europe. N. S. Shaler is credited by Nichols with being the first to call attention to these peculiar swamps in North America, in 1888-89. Those which Shaler observed were "mostly limited to the eastern portion of Maine, near the shores of the Bay of Fundy," but some of lesser magnitude were reported for New Hampshire, northern Michigan, and Minnesota. Similar bogs, with centers about 13 feet above their margins, have been reported in the province of New Brunswick by Ganong (1897). Nichols (1919) described bogs of this type encountered in Maine, in which the elevation of the center above the margin varied from 2 or 3 feet to as high as 18 feet (e. g., Denbo Heath, covering several square miles in area). He asserts: "(1) that in the state of Maine raised bogs, in so far as they constitute a distinctive swamp type, are virtually restricted to the proximity of the seacoast; and (2) that in other portions of New England and of the eastern United States this type of bog is practically absent, although in occasional swamps it is possible to detect a slight elevation of the surface above the level of permanent ground water." Warming (1909) has summarized concisely the characteristic features of "Hochmoore." They owe their development to the growth of sphagnum mosses which absorb water that falls in the form of rain or snow. -

Synstylae; Rosaceae) Ji-Hyeon Jeon and Seung-Chul Kim * Department of Biological Sciences, Sungkyunkwan University, Suwon 16419, Korea; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +82-31-299-4499 Received: 4 November 2018; Accepted: 27 December 2018; Published: 3 January 2019 Abstract: Species belonging to Rosa section Synstylae (Rosaceae) are mainly distributed in East Asia, and represent recently diverged lineages within the genus. Over decades, inferring phylogenetic relationships within section Synstylae have been exceptional challenges, due to short branch lengths and low support values. Of approximately 36 species in the section Synstylae, Rosa multiflora, Rosa luciae and Rosa maximowicziana are widely distributed in the Sino-Japanese floristic region. In this study, we assembled chloroplast genomes of these three species to compare the genomic features within section Synstylae, and to compare with other infrageneric groups. We found that three Rosa sect. Synstylae species had lost infA genes with pseudogenization, and they were almost identical to each other. Two protein-coding gene regions (ndhF and ycf1) and five non-coding regions (5’matK-trnK, psbI-trnS-trnG, rps16-trnG, rpoB-trnC, and rps4-trnT) were identified as being highly informative markers. Within three section Synstylae chloroplast genomes, 85 simple sequence repeat (SSR) motifs were detected, of which at least 13 motifs were identified to be effective markers. The phylogenetic relationships of R. multiflora, R. luciae and R. maximowicziana could not be resolved, even with chloroplast genome-wide data. -

Shrubby Cinquefoil Dasiphora Fruticosa
Shrubby Cinquefoil Dasiphora fruticosa Description: Rose family (Rosaceae). Shrubby Cinquefoil is a spreading to erect shrub 1-10 dm. tall. The young branches are silky, becoming glabrous and reddish-brown, with the bark shredding as it matures. Leaves are small and numerous, with the leaf blades pinnately 5-foliate. The leaflets are crowded, 10-20 mm. long, linear to narrowly elliptic-oblong, and have a gray-silky texture. The flowers are produced terminally on the stems and are 2–3 cm (0.8–1.2 in) cm across, buttercup-shaped, with five petals and 15–25 stamens; the petals are pale to bright yellow. Flowering is typically from early to late summer. The fruit is a cluster of achenes covered with long hairs. Ecology: Native to the cool temperate and subarctic regions of the northern hemisphere, often growing at high altitudes in mountains, Shrubby Cinquefoil is a facultative wetland species that is normally found growing in moisture-retentive soils in swamps and rocky, open calcareous areas. Shrubby Cinquefoil is known to be of special value to pollinators such as bees and butterflies, and other ‘biological control’ insects which prey upon pest insects. Comments: Shrubby cinquefoil is a popular ornamental plant in temperate regions. The flowers are always small, flat, and round, but there are many dozens on each bush. It is very often used by cities and businesses for landscaping because of its hardiness and low maintenance. It was introduced into cultivation in the 18th century. The vast majority of sellers and gardeners still use the old name Potentilla fruticosa. -
FSC Nettlecombe Court Nature Review 2014
FSC Nettlecombe Court Nature Review 2014 Compiled by: Sam Tuddenham Nettlecombe Court- Nature Review 2014 Introduction The purpose of this report is to review and share the number of different species that are present in the grounds of Nettlecombe Court. A significant proportion of this data has been generated by FSC course tutors and course attendees studying at Nettlecombe court on a variety of courses. Some of the data has been collected for the primary purpose of species monitoring for nationwide conservation charities e.g. The Big Butterfly Count and Bee Walk Survey Scheme. Other species have just been noted by members or staff when out in the grounds. These records are as accurate as possible however we accept that there may be species missing. Nettlecombe Court Nettlecombe Court Field Centre of the Field Studies Council sits just inside the eastern border of Exmoor national park, North-West of Taunton (Map 1). The house grid reference is 51o07’52.23”N, 32o05’8.65”W and this report only documents wildlife within the grounds of the house (see Map 2). The estate is around 60 hectares and there is a large variety of environment types: Dry semi- improved neutral grassland, bare ground, woodland (large, small, man –made and natural), bracken dominated hills, ornamental shrubs (lawns/ domestic gardens) and streams. These will all provide different habitats, enabling the rich diversity of wildlife found at Nettlecombe Court. Nettlecombe court has possessed a meteorological station for a number of years and so a summary of “MET” data has been included in this report. -

Dasiphora Fruticosa Shrubby Cinquefoil
Dasiphora fruticosa Shrubby Cinquefoil by Kathy Lloyd Montana Native Plant Society uly 6, 1806 was a busy day for Meriwether Lewis, and hence for Montana history. On that day Lewis collected six or seven plant specimens that still exist and can be seen in Jthe Lewis & Clark Herbarium in Philadelphia. One of them is shrubby cinquefoil. Lewis and Clark had split the expedition into two groups at Traveler’s Rest in present-day Missoula County and on July 6th Lewis’s group was traveling along the Blackfoot River in what is now Powell County. Several collec- tions were made in the “prarie of knobs”, as Lewis referred to the kettle-knob glacial moraine topogra- phy of the Ovando Valley. Lewis’s journal entry for July 6th says, “the southern wood and two other spe- ceis of shrub are common in the prarie of knobs. pre- served specemines of them.” Frederick Pursh, a botanist who studied the Lewis and Clark plant col- Photo: Drake Barton lections, put a note on the specimen that reads, “Prairy of the Knobs.

Potentilla Using DNA Sequences of Nuclear Ribosomal Internal Transcribed Spacers (ITS), and Implications for the Classification of Rosoideae (Rosaceae)
--Plant Pl. Syst. Evol. 211:155-179 (1998) Systematics and Evolution © Springer-Verlag 1998 Printed in Austria Phylogenetic analysis of Potentilla using DNA sequences of nuclear ribosomal internal transcribed spacers (ITS), and implications for the classification of Rosoideae (Rosaceae) TORSTEN ERIKSSON, MICHAEL J. DONOOHUE, and MALIN S. HIBBS Received December 17, 1996; in revised version March 18, 1997 Key words: Rosaceae, Rosoideae, PotentilIa, Fragaria, Duchesnea. - Phylogeny, classification, phylogenetic nomenclature, ribosomal DNA, ITS. Abstract: The circumscription of Potentilla has varied widely. To investigate the monophyly of Potentilla and the phylogenetic relationships of associated genera we used nuclear ribosomal internal transcribed spacer (ITS) DNA sequences. Fourteen species of Potentilla (sensu WOLF 1908) were included, some of which represent proposed segregate genera (such as Argentina, Comarum, Drymocallis, Duchesnea, Pentaphylloides, and Sibbaldiopsis), and 17 other genera of Rosoideae, using Prunus as outgroup. Out most parsimonious tree strongly implies that Potentilla is not monophyletic. Forcing the monophyly of Potentilla yields distinctly longer trees. Several morphological features appear to have evolved several times independently, including the swollen receptacle ("strawberry") and temate leaves. In order to minimise nomenclatural change and to name only well supported clades, Potentilla should be split into several genera, while other previously recognised genera such as Duchesnea, Horkelia, and Ivesia are best included in Potentilla. We suggest, however, that a phylogenetic nomenclature (sensu DE QuEraoz & GAUTHIEU 1994) might be a better solution. Potentilla L. is a rather large genus (c. 200-500 species) of herbaceous or some- what woody perennials distributed mainly in the Northern Hemisphere. Species diversity is highest in northern Eurasia.
