Vascular Plant Lists Stanley L Beaver Dam Wash Vascular Plant Lists Stanley L. Welsh 13 February 2007 There are more than 400 species of plants Araliaceae known from the Utah portion of Beaver Dam Hedra helix Wash, including the Beaver Dam Slope and the Asclepiadaceae Beaver Dam Mountains. The first list is of those Asclepias erosa Torrey whose distribution is principally in Beaver Dam Wash. Mainly they are indigenous species, but Bignoniaceae some are cultivated species (*) whose distribution Campsis radicans (L.) Seemann* in Utah is confined to Washington County; a few Chilopsis linearis (Cavanilles) Sweet are weedy species (**). The unique species total 174 and represent 43.5% of the total species Boraginaceae known for the Wash, and about 5.6% of the Cryptantha barbigera (A. Gray) Greene! indigenous flora of the state. Cryptantha dicipiens (M. E. Jones) Heller A second list of riparian plant species is Cryptantha dumetorum Greene presented following the first list. The 42 species Cryptantha racemosa (S. Watson) Greene from the second list represent 10.5% of the known Cryptantha virginensis (M. E. Jones) Payson flora of the wash. Both lists are organized Pectocarya platycarpa (Munz & Johnston) alphabetically by family, genus, and species. Munz & Johnston! Pectocarya recurvata Johnston! Coniferous plants: Pectocarya setosa A.

    Sego Lily July 2008 31 (4) July 2008 Volume 31 Number 4 Salt Lake Chapter Trek to the Beaver Dam Mountains By Bill Gray In April, eight Salt Lake Chapter members took a break from their long winter and headed south as far as they could get, actually ending up just over the border in Arizona. Somehow the Virgin River gorge and that part of the Beaver Dam Moun- tains feel as though they really be- long in Utah. Most of you have probably driven through the gorge on Interstate 15 en route to/from Las Vegas or Southern California, and have ad- mired the steep rugged cliffs where the river has carved its way down. From a speeding car it is possible to spot a few of the obvious standout plants of the Mojave Desert – Joshua tree (Yucca brevifolia), Above: Crevice penstemon, Penstemon petiolatus, grows in Creosote bush (Larrea tridentata) mostly inaccessible crevices in rugged limestone cliffs in and rather modest specimens of Le- Utah’s Beaver Dam Mountains.

Available at: http://scholarship.claremont.edu/aliso/vol15/iss1/5 Aliso, 15(1), pp. 41-56 © 1997, by The Rancho Santa Ana Botanic Garden, Claremont, CA 91711-3157 WOOD ANATOMY OF BUDDLEJACEAE SHERWIN CARLQUIST' Santa Barbara Botanic Garden 1212 Mission Canyon Road Santa Barbara, California 93110-2323 ABSTRACT Quantitative and qualitative data are presented for 23 species of Buddleja and one species each of Emorya, Nuxia, and Peltanthera. Although crystal distribution is likely a systematic feature of some species of Buddleja, other wood features relate closely to ecology. Features correlated with xeromorphy in Buddleja include strongly marked growth rings (terminating with vascular tracheids), narrower mean vessel diameter, shorter vessel elements, greater vessel density, and helical thickenings in vessels. Old World species of Buddleja cannot be differentiated from New World species on the basis of wood features. Emorya wood is like that of xeromorphic species of Buddleja. Lateral wall vessel pits of Nuxia are small (2.5 ILm) compared to those of Buddleja (mostly 5-7 ILm) . Peltanthera wood features can also be found in Buddleja or Nuxia; Dickison's transfer of Sanango from Buddlejaceae to Ges­ neriaceae is justified. All wood features of Buddlejaceae can be found in families of subclass Asteridae such as Acanthaceae, Asteraceae, Lamiaceae, Myoporaceae, Scrophulariaceae, and Verbenaceae.
