"National List of Vascular Plant Species That Occur in Wetlands: 1996 National Summary."
Intro 1996 National List of Vascular Plant Species That Occur in Wetlands The Fish and Wildlife Service has prepared a National List of Vascular Plant Species That Occur in Wetlands: 1996 National Summary (1996 National List). The 1996 National List is a draft revision of the National List of Plant Species That Occur in Wetlands: 1988 National Summary (Reed 1988) (1988 National List). The 1996 National List is provided to encourage additional public review and comments on the draft regional wetland indicator assignments. The 1996 National List reflects a significant amount of new information that has become available since 1988 on the wetland affinity of vascular plants. This new information has resulted from the extensive use of the 1988 National List in the field by individuals involved in wetland and other resource inventories, wetland identification and delineation, and wetland research. Interim Regional Interagency Review Panel (Regional Panel) changes in indicator status as well as additions and deletions to the 1988 National List were documented in Regional supplements. The National List was originally developed as an appendix to the Classification of Wetlands and Deepwater Habitats of the United States (Cowardin et al.1979) to aid in the consistent application of this classification system for wetlands in the field.. The 1996 National List also was developed to aid in determining the presence of hydrophytic vegetation in the Clean Water Act Section 404 wetland regulatory program and in the implementation of the swampbuster provisions of the Food Security Act. While not required by law or regulation, the Fish and Wildlife Service is making the 1996 National List available for review and comment. -
Crested Floating Heart, Nymphoides Cristata
FDACS-02020 Pest Alert Pest Alert Published 1-October-2014 Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services Division of Plant Industry Nymphoides cristata, Crested Floating Heart, a Recently Listed State Noxious Weed Patti J. Anderson, [email protected], Botanist, Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services, Division of Plant Industry Marc S. Frank, Botanist, Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services, Division of Plant Industry INTRODUCTION: The perennial, emergent aquatic plant, Nymphoides cristata (Roxb.) Kuntze (Menyanthaceae), has been added to the Florida Noxious Weed and Invasive Species List. This plant was proposed for listing and evidence was presented to the Noxious Weed Review Committee. Numerous ecological studies and weed assessments by the USDA and the University of Florida provided information. Invasive plant managers with the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) and South Florida Water Management District are currently trying to control the spread of this plant. Crested floating heart is an aggressive pest plant that develops dense mats and quickly covers lakes and ponds.This species is documented as naturalized in eight counties in Florida and is also listed by the Florida Exotic Pest Plant Council as an invasive species that has altered natural plant communities. The committee found that the species exhibited the following invasive characteristics: • vegetative reproduction from plant fragments, bulbils and tubers • rapid colonization of fresh water bodies • persistent roots, rhizomes and leaf fragments make control extremely difficult • easily spread by boat traffic Mats of N. cristata reduce or eliminate the light required by native plant species below the water surface, and thereby eliminate these plants from the water column. -

Chapter 6 Technical Assistance to Sra on Environmental Issues
CHAPTER 6 TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE TO SRA ON ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUES Preparatory Survey on the Project for Construction of Mykolaiv Bridge in Ukraine Final Report 6. TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE TO SRA ON ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUES 6.1 Environmental and Social Considerations 6.1.1 Project Components (1) Name The Project for Construction of Mykolaiv Bridge in Ukraine (2) Project Proponent The State Road Administration of Mykolaiv in Ukraine (Ukravtodor Mykolaiv) (3) Project Object The aim of the planned activity is to construct a highway river crossing over the Southern Bug River of city Mykolaiv cit;y. A highway river crossing including the bridge and approaches to it on the road M-14 Odessa – Melitopol – Novoazovsk (to Taganrog): beginning on the right bank of the Southern Bug River near the village Vesniane from M-14; end – on the left bank to the M-14 at the crossing with auto road P-06 Ulianovka – Mykolaiv. Construction of approaches to the bridge structures requires allocation of land for permanent use within the projected band allocation of the road. At present these lands are owned by individuals and legal entities. (4) Location Ukraine is located in Eastern Europe and is surrounded by seven countries; Romania, Moldova, Slovakia, Hungary, and Poland in the west, Belarus in the north, and Russia in the east, as well as the Black Sea in the south. In order to exploit this geographical position, the Government of Ukraine established the “Comprehensive Program for Consolidation of Ukraine as a Transit Country for 2002-2010”, which was indicative of the importance attached to establishing international trunk roads providing new traffic systems for cross-border logistics. -
Aquatic Vascular Plant Species Distribution Maps
Appendix 11.5.1: Aquatic Vascular Plant Species Distribution Maps These distribution maps are for 116 aquatic vascular macrophyte species (Table 1). Aquatic designation follows habitat descriptions in Haines and Vining (1998), and includes submergent, floating and some emergent species. See Appendix 11.4 for list of species. Also included in Appendix 11.4 is the number of HUC-10 watersheds from which each taxon has been recorded, and the county-level distributions. Data are from nine sources, as compiled in the MABP database (plus a few additional records derived from ancilliary information contained in reports from two fisheries surveys in the Upper St. John basin organized by The Nature Conservancy). With the exception of the University of Maine herbarium records, most locations represent point samples (coordinates were provided in data sources or derived by MABP from site descriptions in data sources). The herbarium data are identified only to township. In the species distribution maps, town-level records are indicated by center-points (centroids). Figure 1 on this page shows as polygons the towns where taxon records are identified only at the town level.

The Ecological Scales for the Species of Ukrainian Flora and Their Use in Synphytoindication
M.G. KHOLODNY INSTITUTE OF BOTANY NAS OF UKRAINE Ya.P. Didukh THE ECOLOGICAL SCALES FOR THE SPECIES OF UKRAINIAN FLORA AND THEIR USE IN SYNPHYTOINDICATION Kyiv - 2011 Didukh, Ya.P. The ecological scales for the species of Ukrainian flora and their use in synphytoindication. – Kyiv: Phytosociocentre, 2011. - 176 p. The amplitude scales of 3300 flora species of Ukraine are presented, reflecting species relation to 12 main climate and edaphic factors. The Tsyganov, Ramensky, Tsatsenkin, Ellenberg, Landolt, Zolyomi, Zarzycki, Frank et Klotz and other ecological scales’ comparisons are illustrated. The methods of synphytoindication are presented as an approach of ecological indices assessment based on phytosociological surveys taking into account indicator species presence and their occurrence in the community. The examples of practical applications of data using ordination and gradient analysis, the principal component method, ecological mapping, assessment of ecological factors changes in space (landscapes) and time (successions) are given. It is recommended for botanists and ecologists. Tabl. 7. Fig. 17. © Didukh Ya.P. Introduction Due to the immensity of the current anthropogenic impact, serious environmen- tal changes are occurring worldwide. Plants respond to these changes accordingly; first of all they disappear in some types of habitats and appear in other. That is why ecological research of flora is a very relevant and topical task. Studies of spe- cies ecology, estimation of species’ tolerance amplitude to the effects of different ecological factors, ways of adaptation, behavior and population renewal strategy, as well as the abilities to resist changes of ecological factors are closely related with problems of biodiversity conservation. Species organization and structure ensure functioning of the whole ecosystem pyramid, energy accumulation and transformation, circulation of substances, soil formation processes, existence of heterotrophic component, and evolution of ecosystems and their components. -
Arctic and Boreal Plant Species Decline at Their Southern Range Limits in the Rocky Mountains
Ecology Letters, (2017) 20: 166–174 doi: 10.1111/ele.12718 LETTER Arctic and boreal plant species decline at their southern range limits in the Rocky Mountains Abstract Peter Lesica1,2* and Climate change is predicted to cause a decline in warm-margin plant populations, but this hypoth- Elizabeth E. Crone3 esis has rarely been tested. Understanding which species and habitats are most likely to be affected is critical for adaptive management and conservation. We monitored the density of 46 populations representing 28 species of arctic-alpine or boreal plants at the southern margin of their ranges in the Rocky Mountains of Montana, USA, between 1988 and 2014 and analysed population trends and relationships to phylogeny and habitat. Marginal populations declined overall during the past two decades; however, the mean trend for 18 dicot populations was À5.8% per year, but only À0.4% per year for the 28 populations of monocots and pteridophytes. Declines in the size of peripheral populations did not differ significantly among tundra, fen and forest habitats. Results of our study support predicted effects of climate change and suggest that vulnerability may depend on phylogeny or associated anatomical/physiological attributes.

A List of Grasses and Grasslike Plants of the Oak Openings, Lucas County
A LIST OF THE GRASSES AND GRASSLIKE PLANTS OF THE OAK OPENINGS, LUCAS COUNTY, OHIO1 NATHAN WILLIAM EASTERLY Department of Biology, Bowling Green State University, Bowling Green, Ohio 4-3403 ABSTRACT This report is the second of a series of articles to be prepared as a second "Flora of the Oak Openings." The study represents a comprehensive survey of members of the Cyperaceae, Gramineae, Juncaceae, Sparganiaceae, and Xyridaceae in the Oak Openings region. Of the 202 species listed in this study, 34 species reported by Moseley in 1928 were not found during the present investigation. Fifty-seven species found by the present investi- gator were not observed or reported by Moseley. Many of these species or varieties are rare and do not represent a stable part of the flora. Changes in species present or in fre- quency of occurrence of species collected by both Moseley and Easterly may be explained mainly by the alteration of habitats as the Oak Openings region becomes increasingly urbanized or suburbanized. Some species have increased in frequency on the floodplain of Swan Creek, in wet ditches and on the banks of the Norfolk and Western Railroad right-of-way, along newly constructed roadsides, or on dry sandy sites. INTRODUCTION The grass family ranks third among the large plant families of the world. The family ranks number one as far as total numbers of plants that cover fields, mead- ows, or roadsides are concerned. No other family is used as extensively to pro- vide food or shelter or to create a beautiful landscape. The sedge family does not fare as well in terms of commercial importance, but the sedges do make avail- able forage and food for wild fowl and they do contribute plant cover in wet areas where other plants would not be as well adapted.
