    The Burren 2018 species list and trip report, 7th-12th June 2018 WILDLIFE TRAVEL The Burren 2018 s 1 The Burren 2018 species list and trip report, 7th-12th June 2018 Day 1: 7th June: Arrive in Lisdoonvarna; supper at Rathbaun Hotel Arriving by a variety of routes and means, we all gathered at Caherleigh House by 6pm, sustained by a round of fresh tea, coffee and delightful home-made scones from our ever-helpful host, Dermot. After introductions and some background to the geology and floral elements in the Burren from Brian (stressing the Mediterranean component of the flora after a day’s Mediterranean heat and sun), we made our way to the Rathbaun, for some substantial and tasty local food and our first taste of Irish music from the three young ladies of Ceolan, and their energetic four-hour performance (not sure any of us had the stamina to stay to the end). Day 2: 8th June: Poulsallach At 9am we were collected by Tony, our driver from Glynn’s Coaches for the week, and following a half-hour drive we arrived at a coastal stretch of species-rich limestone pavement which represented the perfect introduction to the Burren’s flora: a stunningly beautiful mix of coastal, Mediterranean, Atlantic and Arctic-Alpine species gathered together uniquely in a natural rock garden. First impressions were of patchy grassland, sparkling with heath spotted- orchids Dactylorhiza maculata ericetorum and drifts of the ubiquitous and glowing-purple bloody crane’s-bill Geranium sanguineum, between bare rock. A closer look revealed a diverse and colourful tapestry of dozens of flowers - the yellows of goldenrod Solidago virgaurea, kidney-vetch Anthyllis vulneraria, and bird’s-foot trefoil Lotus corniculatus (and its attendant common blue butterflies Polyommatus Icarus), pink splashes of wild thyme Thymus polytrichus and the hairy local subspecies of lousewort Pedicularis sylvatica ssp.

  • Vascular Flora and Geoecology of Mont De La Table, Gaspésie, Québec
    RHODORA, Vol. 117, No. 969, pp. 1–40, 2015 E Copyright 2015 by the New England Botanical Club doi: 10.3119/14-07; first published on-line March 11, 2015. VASCULAR FLORA AND GEOECOLOGY OF MONT DE LA TABLE, GASPE´ SIE, QUE´ BEC SCOTT W. BAILEY USDA Forest Service, 234 Mirror Lake Road, North Woodstock, NH 03262 e-mail: [email protected] JOANN HOY 21 Steam Mill Road, Auburn, NH 03032 CHARLES V. COGBILL 82 Walker Lane, Plainfield, VT 05667 ABSTRACT. The influence of substrate lithology on the distribution of many vascular and nonvascular plants has long been recognized, especially in alpine, subalpine, and other rocky habitats. In particular, plants have been classified as dependent on high-calcium substrates (i.e., calcicoles) based on common restriction to habitats developed in calcareous rocks, such as limestone and marble. In a classic 1907 paper on the influence of substrate on plants, M. L. Fernald singled out a particular meadow on Mont de la Table in the Chic-Choc Mountains of Que´bec for its unusual co-occurrence of strict calcicole and calcifuge (i.e., acidophile) plant taxa. We re-located this site, investigated substrate factors responsible for its unusual plant diversity, and documented current plant distributions. No calcareous rocks were found on site. However, inclusions of calcareous rocks were found farther up the mountain. The highest pH and dissolved calcium concentrations in surface waters were found in a series of springs that deliver groundwater, presumably influenced by calcareous rocks up the slope. Within the habitat delineated by common occurrences of calcicole species, available soil calcium varied by a factor of five and soil pH varied by almost 1.5 units, depending on microtopography and relative connection with groundwater.

  • A Second Annotated Checklist of Vascular Plants in Wells Gray Provincial Park and Vicinity, British Columbia, Canada
    A second annotated checklist of vascular plants in Wells Gray Provincial Park and vicinity, British Columbia, Canada Version 1: April, 2011 Curtis R. Björk1 and Trevor Goward2 ENLICHENED CONSULTING LTD. Box 131, Clearwater, BC, V0E 1N0, Canada [email protected], [email protected] Vascular Plants in Wells Gray SUMMARY Wells Gray Provincial Park is a vast wilderness preserve situated in the mountains and highlands of south-central British Columbia. The first major floristic study of the vascular plants of Wells Gray and its vicinity was published in 1965 by Leena Hämet-Ahti, who documented 550 taxa, including a first Canadian record of Carex praeceptorium. The present study contributes nearly 500 additional taxa documented by us between 1976 and 2010 in connection with our personal explorations of the Clearwater Valley. The vascular flora of Wells Gray Park and vicinity now stands at 1046 taxa, including 881 native species and 165 species introduced from Eurasia and other portions of British Columbia. Wells Gray Park is notable both for the presence of numerous taxa (45) at or near the northern limits of their range, as well as for an unexpectedly high number of taxa (43) accorded conservation status by the British Columbia Conservation Data Centre. Antennaria corymbosa has its only known Canadian locality within Wells Gray, while five additional species reported here are known in Canada from fewer than six localities. About a dozen unknown, possibly undescribed taxa have also been detected. Botanical inventory has thus far been confined to the southern portions of Wells Gray. Future studies in northern half of the park will certainly greatly increase our knowledge of the biological diversity safeguarded in this magnificent wilderness preserve.

The Common Plants of the Muskegs of Southeast Alaska by O. Wayne Robuck Abstract This guide identifies 49 common plants of coastal Alaska muskegs. Plants are divided into six major groups: clubmosses, ferns, sedges, herbs, shrubs, and trees. Illustrations and short descriptions of each plant are provided, along with a simplified key to aid in identification. The guide has been prepared with the amateur botanist in mind, and technical terminology has been largely eliminated. A glossary and illustrations are provid- ed to explain the botanical terms used. Keywords: Flora, identification (plant), keys (plant), muskeg, bog plants, Alaska (southeast), southeast Alaska. Contents 1 Introduction 3 How to Use the Guide 6 List of Species 8 List of lllustrated Plant Parts 9 Key for Identification 16 lllustrations of Species (Figures I through 49) 114 lllustrations of Plant Parts (Figures 50 through 74) 122 Glossary 130 Index of Botanical Names Introduction Muskeg is an Algonquian Indian word meaning an area en- tirely devoid of ordinary mineral soil. In a muskeg the upper layers of the ground are composed mainly of living sphagnum moss and the lower layers are composed of a fibrous brown mass of partially disintegrated sphagnum called peat.

Introduction The Small Pearl-bordered Fritillary is well represented in Cornwall and there are 23,705 sightings documented in 423 different kilometre squares. Total sightings for the last 12 years are 13,817 in 233 kilometre squares and these are shown on the map below (source: ERICA). Following the 2020 Fritillary Action Group meeting on 9 September 2020, a short investigation has been carried out into the relationship between the first and second broods of the butterfly. The investigation objectives were: - To establish how the timings of the broods compared from year to year using cumulative frequency analysis, - To better understand the relationship between the first and second broods, in terms of when the second brood is developed and the timing relative to the first brood, - To investigate where the second brood is developed and how it compares to the size of the first brood in different areas. 2 Small Pearl-bordered Fritillary: An analysis of the first and second broods 2. Methodology All records for Small Pearl-bordered Fritillary were downloaded from ERICA and processed to allocate the UKBMS week (Week 1 commences on 1 April each year) and a ‘UKBMS day’ (Day 1 is 1 April each year). Previous analysis had determined that 9 July was a reasonable common cut-off date to separate the end of the first brood from any second brood butterflies.

    AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF DAVID S. HARLE for the MASTER OF SCIENCE (Name) 7Degree) in GEOLOGY presented on APRIL 17, 1974 (Major) (Date) Title: GEOLOGY OF BABYSHOE RIDGE AREA, SOUTHERN CASCADES, WASHINGTON Abstract approved: Redacted for privacy I The thesis area consists of approximately thirty square miles in the Southern Cascades of Washington near Mount Adams. The oldest exposed rocks are sedimentary volcanic clastics and pyroclastic flows of late-Oligocene age that form a homocline in the northwest corner of the area. A thick pile of younger Tertiary lavas, mudflows, and volcanic clastics unconformably overlie the Oligocene rocks, and contain two hydrothermally altered zones. Andesitic lavas from Mount Adams lap onto older rocks and are of Recent to Pleistocene age. Two glacial till deposits and two airfall pyroclastic layers are present through- out the area. / One major fault and two broad folds are present in the area. The geothermal potential is not believed to be great, because genetic relationships indicate the hydrothermal systems that produced the two alteration zones were active only in pre- Pleistocene time. There are no external manifestations of a presently active hydrothermal system with geothermal potential.
