The official status of plants in Pennsylvania as approved by legislative action under Chapter 45 of the Pennsylvania Code has not been updated since 1992. However, the Vascular Plant Technical Committee (VPTC) of the Pennsylvania Biological Survey (PABS) has been updating the status of Pennsylvania’s rarest species for the entire period of time the act has been in effect. DCNR has reviewed the numerous species whose status has been proposed to change by the VPTC, and identified some which require additional work to document and justify the proposed status. A list of 56 high priority taxa was provided at the start of the 2014 WRCP project Plant Status Updates Collaborative, and work on these taxa has continued through the 2015 WRCP project Plant Status Updates II. These taxa require some combination of additional fieldwork and / or documentation of existing knowledge about the status of the species, and some cases are also complicated by taxonomic problems or questions around the native status of Pennsylvania populations. The Plant Status Updates projects brought together major institutions with botanical expertise in Pennsylvania to evaluate these taxa and determine how best to resolve any information gaps. Project partners were the Pennsylvania Natural Heritage Program, Morris Arboretum at the University of Pennsylvania, the Cleveland Museum of Natural History, and the Carnegie Museum of Natural History. Methods Expert Review of Taxa The list of taxa provided by DCNR was initially reviewed by a group of experts from the partner institutions including Dr. Timothy Block (Morris Arboretum), Jim Bissell (Cleveland MNH), Steven P. Grund (PNHP), John Kunsman (PNHP), Jessica McPherson (PNHP), Dr. Cynthia Morton (Carnegie MNH), and Loree Speedy (Carnegie MNH). The group briefly summarized the state of existing knowledge for each taxon, and decided whether additional fieldwork was needed to assign legal status and provide appropriate justification. The taxa that needed additional fieldwork were each assigned a lead investigator to coordinate work and write summary justifications. Review of Historical Records PNHP provided all investigators

  • Guide to the Flora of the Carolinas, Virginia, and Georgia, Working Draft of 17 March 2004 -- LILIACEAE
    Guide to the Flora of the Carolinas, Virginia, and Georgia, Working Draft of 17 March 2004 -- LILIACEAE LILIACEAE de Jussieu 1789 (Lily Family) (also see AGAVACEAE, ALLIACEAE, ALSTROEMERIACEAE, AMARYLLIDACEAE, ASPARAGACEAE, COLCHICACEAE, HEMEROCALLIDACEAE, HOSTACEAE, HYACINTHACEAE, HYPOXIDACEAE, MELANTHIACEAE, NARTHECIACEAE, RUSCACEAE, SMILACACEAE, THEMIDACEAE, TOFIELDIACEAE) As here interpreted narrowly, the Liliaceae constitutes about 11 genera and 550 species, of the Northern Hemisphere. There has been much recent investigation and re-interpretation of evidence regarding the upper-level taxonomy of the Liliales, with strong suggestions that the broad Liliaceae recognized by Cronquist (1981) is artificial and polyphyletic. Cronquist (1993) himself concurs, at least to a degree: "we still await a comprehensive reorganization of the lilies into several families more comparable to other recognized families of angiosperms." Dahlgren & Clifford (1982) and Dahlgren, Clifford, & Yeo (1985) synthesized an early phase in the modern revolution of monocot taxonomy. Since then, additional research, especially molecular (Duvall et al. 1993, Chase et al. 1993, Bogler & Simpson 1995, and many others), has strongly validated the general lines (and many details) of Dahlgren's arrangement. The most recent synthesis (Kubitzki 1998a) is followed as the basis for familial and generic taxonomy of the lilies and their relatives (see summary below). References: Angiosperm Phylogeny Group (1998, 2003); Tamura in Kubitzki (1998a). Our “liliaceous” genera (members of orders placed in the Lilianae) are therefore divided as shown below, largely following Kubitzki (1998a) and some more recent molecular analyses. ALISMATALES TOFIELDIACEAE: Pleea, Tofieldia. LILIALES ALSTROEMERIACEAE: Alstroemeria COLCHICACEAE: Colchicum, Uvularia. LILIACEAE: Clintonia, Erythronium, Lilium, Medeola, Prosartes, Streptopus, Tricyrtis, Tulipa. MELANTHIACEAE: Amianthium, Anticlea, Chamaelirium, Helonias, Melanthium, Schoenocaulon, Stenanthium, Veratrum, Toxicoscordion, Trillium, Xerophyllum, Zigadenus.

  • Castilleja Coccinea and C. Indivisa (Orobanchaceae)
    Nesom, G.L. and J.M. Egger. 2014. Castilleja coccinea and C. indivisa (Orobanchaceae). Phytoneuron 2014-14: 1–7. Published 6 January 2014. ISSN 2153 733X CASTILLEJA COCCINEA AND C. INDIVISA (OROBANCHACEAE) GUY L. NESOM 2925 Hartwood Drive Fort Worth, Texas 76109 www.guynesom.com J. M ARK EGGER Herbarium, Burke Museum of Natural History and Culture University of Washington Seattle, Washington 98195-5325 [email protected] ABSTRACT Castilleja coccinea and C. indivisa are contrasted in morphology and their ranges mapped in detail in the southern USA, where they are natively sympatric in small areas of Oklahoma, Arkansas, and Louisiana. Castilleja indivisa has recently been introduced and naturalized in the floras of Alabama and Florida. Castilleja ludoviciana , known only by the type collection from southwestern Louisiana, differs from C. coccinea in subentire leaves and relatively small flowers and is perhaps a population introgressed by C. indivisa . Castilleja coccinea and C. indivisa are allopatric except in small areas of Oklahoma, Arkansas, and Lousiana, but assessments of their native distributions are not consistent among various accounts (e.g. Thomas & Allen 1997; Turner et al. 2003; OVPD 2012; USDA, NRCS 2013). Morphological contrasts between the two species, via keys in floristic treatments (e.g., Smith 1994; Wunderlin & Hansen 2003; Nelson 2009; Weakley 2012), have essentially repeated the differences outlined by Pennell (1935). The current study presents an evaluation and summary of the taxonomy of these two species. We have examined specimens at CAS, TEX-LL, SMU-BRIT-VDB, MO, NLU, NO, USF, WS, and WTU and viewed digital images available through Florida herbaria and databases.

    Oklahoma Native Plant Record 39 Volume 1, Number 1, December 2001 Native Orchids of Oklahoma Dr. Lawrence K. Magrath Curator-USAO (OCLA) Herbarium Chickasha, OK 73018-5358 As of the publication of this paper Oklahoma is known to have orchids of 33 species in 18 genera, which compares to 20 species and 11 genera reported by Waterfall (1969). Four of the 33 species are possibly extinct in the state based on current survey work. The greatest concentration of orchid species is in the southeastern corner of the state (Atoka, Bryan, Choctaw, LeFlore, McCurtain and Pushmataha Counties). INTRODUCTION Since the time of Confucius (551-479 BCE) who mentioned lan in his writings, "acquaintance with The family Orchidaceae is the largest of the good men was like entering a room full of lan or families of flowering plants with somewhere between fragrant orchids" (Withner, 1959), orchids have been 25,000 and 35,000 species, with new species important in many facets of Chinese life including continually being described. There are also literature, painting, horticulture, and not least, numerous natural and artificial hybrids. The only medicine". They are mentioned in the materia place where orchids are not known to occur is medica, “Sheng nung pen ts'ao ching”, tracing back Antarctica. to the legendary emperor Sheng Nung (ca. 28th Orchids fascinate us because of the century BCE). The term "lan hua" in early Chinese seemingly infinite combinations of colors and forms records refers to species of the genus Cymbidium that are found in orchid flowers from the Arctic to (Withner, 1959), most likely Cymbidium the tropical rain forests.

In tracking populations of plant species of conservation concern (Missouri Natural Heritage Program, 2007), there are sometimes also boom years in the number of reports of new populations. Because of reports of five new populations and a surge in numbers of plants at some previously-known sites, 2007 provided encouraging news for the conservation of the auriculate false foxglove [Agalinis auriculata (Michx.)

Методом сканирующей электронной микроскопии (СЭМ) исследована скульптура по- верхности семянок 371 вида из 168 родов, 21 трибы, пяти подсемейств семейства Asteraceae. У 75 видов из 45 родов, относящихся к 8 трибам, а также у Symphyllocarpus exilis (вида с неустановленным таксономическим положением в системе семейства) было выявлено наличие папилл. На поверхности семянок большинства видов трибы Cichorieae находятся папиллы разнообразного строения. Только у видов этой трибы папиллы об- разуют гребни (виды подтрибы Hypochaeridinae) и на поверхности экзокарпия многих видов находятся окру- глые гладкие гранулы эпикутикулярного воска, отсутствующие у видов других триб. На поверхности семянок видов триб Anthemideae, Astereae, Athroismeae, Calenduleae, Gnaphalieae, Heliantheae, Senecioneae папиллы имеются только у некоторых видов. У исследованных нами видов триб Barnadesieae, Mutisieae, Cynareae, Vernonieae, Arctotideae, Inuleae, Helenieae, Coreopsideae, Tageteae, Madieae, Millerieae, Eupatorieae папиллы не обнаружены.
