    New England Plant Conservation Program Nabalus racemosus (Michx.) Hook. Glaucous white lettuce Conservation and Research Plan for New England Prepared by: Lisa St. Hilaire Ecologist 14 Prospect St. Augusta, Maine 04339 USA For: New England Wild Flower Society 180 Hemenway Road Framingham, Massachusetts 01701 USA 508/877-7630 e-mail: [email protected] • website: www.newfs.org Approved, Regional Advisory Council, December 2003 1 SUMMARY Nabalus racemosus (Michx.) Hook., glaucous white lettuce, is a perennial member of the Asteraceae or composite family. It is considered globally secure (G5), but in New England, it is known only from northern Maine, primarily along the St. John River. There are also several occurrences along the Aroostook River. Ice scour and flooding are common annual disturbances on these rivers. Many of the N. racemosus populations were discovered during survey efforts for Pedicularis furbishiae (Furbish’s lousewort), and both species, as well as many other rarities, may be found at some sites. In other parts of the country, N. racemosus grows in prairie communities. There are currently 31 extant occurrences in Maine, 28 of these along the St. John River, and three on the Aroostook River. There are four historic occurrences, all on the Aroostook River, and one extirpated population on the Aroostook River. Nabalus racemosus is a species of Special Concern in Maine, where it is ranked S3. Other nearby areas from which it is recorded include New Brunswick (S3), Nova Scotia (S1), Newfoundland Island (S1S2), Labrador (SR), Quebec (SR), Vermont (SR), New Jersey (SH), New York (SX), and Pennsylvania (SX). Little is known regarding the biology of Nabalus racemosus.

S. Hitchcock, revised by Agnes Chase (1951). iii PREFACE The first part of our Annotated Checklist, covering the 2001 species of Ferns, Fern Allies, Gymnosperms, and Dicotyledons native or naturalized in the Washington-Baltimore Area, was published in March 2000. Part II covers the Monocotyledons and completes the preliminary edition of the Checklist, which we hope will prove useful not only in itself but also as a first step toward a new manual for the identification of the Area’s flora. Such a manual is needed to replace the long- outdated and out-of-print Flora of the District of Columbia and Vicinity of Hitchcock and Standley, published in 1919. In the preparation of this part, as with Part I, Shetler has been responsible for the taxonomy and nomenclature and Orli for the database. As with the first part, we are distributing this second part in preliminary form, so that it can be used, criticized, and updated while the two parts are being readied for publication as a single volume.

Phylogenetic Analysis of Commelina in Eastern and Southeastern Asia * CHUNG-KUN LEE , SHIZUKA FUSE AND MINORU N. TAMURA Department of Botany, Graduate School of Science, Kyoto University, Kitashirakawa-oiwake-cho, Sakyo-ku, Kyoto 606-8502, Japan. *[email protected] (author for correspondence) Commelina, the pantropical and largest genus in Commelinaceae, consists of ca. 205 species with char- acteristic conduplicate involucral bracts. Previous phylogenetic studies of Commelina, which mainly used African and North American species, suggested that the ancestral character state of the margins of the involucral bracts of Commelina was free and that free to fused occurred only once. To test this evo- lutionary scenario, we performed parsimony and likelihood analyses with partial matK sequences using 25 individuals from 11 species of Commelina, primarily from eastern and southeastern Asia, with An- eilema and Pollia as outgroups. Results showed that Commelina comprises two major clades, one con- sisting of four species, and the other consisting of seven species. Species with free margins of the invo- lucral bracts were in both major clades: C. suffruticosa in the first clade and C. coelestis, C. communis, C. diffusa, C. purpurea and C. sikkimensis in the latter. The phylogenetic trees suggested that the number of shifts is fewer when the ancestral state was fused and that there were two parallel evolutionary trends toward free.

    FLORISTIC INVENTORY AND FLORISTIC QUALITY ASSESSMENT OF THE LSL TRACT, STRAITS OF MACKINAC, EMMET COUNTY, MICHIGAN EEB 556 Field Botany of Northern Michigan Rachael Gingerich, Hannah Heyman, Ryan Kuesel, Katie Pethan, Brian Steel 15 August 2013 ABSTRACT The 55 ha Emmet County LSL tract was obtained in 1990 by Emmet County as an addition to their adjacent Cecil Bay Park. The perimeter of the preserve consists of disturbed roadside and a two-track clearing to the north and a power line in the southwest corner. Though the LSL tract is surrounded by paved road and residential properties, the central core of the site remains fairly untouched. The majority of the site consists of a Thuja forest (37 ha) that surrounds relict beach pools and their surrounding marshes (12 ha). Our objective was to conduct a botanical inventory and floristic quality assessment (FQA) of the LSL Tract to establish a baseline of botanical knowledge that may inform future management of the site. We surveyed the property on four separate occasions in June and July of 2013. We collected every new species we encountered within focal habitats. The inventory consisted of 199 species, 165 of which (83%) were native. Coefficients of conservatism and wetness were calculated for every species identified. The entire tract had an FQA of 66.6, the roadsides 24.0, the power line 14.9, the two-track 34.7, the Thuja forest 37.6, and the beach pool marshes 44.1. The majority of the native plants with high conservation value were located in the beach pool marshes.

    Evaluation of Eucalyptus Triantha Timber for Structural Applications

    Silva Lusitana, 28(1): 1 - 13, 2020 1 © INIAV, Oeiras, Portugal Evaluation of Eucalyptus triantha Timber for Structural Applications *Marta C.J.A. Nogueira, Victor A. de Araujo, Juliano S. Vasconcelos, André L. Christoforo, Francisco A.R. Lahr Abstract. Eucalypt wood is an important raw material with multiple uses applied for furniture, pulp and paper, charcoal, biomass, and construction. Sixteen tests were performed to evaluate physical and mechanical properties of Eucalyptus triantha, which could estimate the possibility of utilization of this woody material in construction. In all, about 267 repeats were realized. Two moisture contents were regarded according to the Brazilian and American standard documents: fiber saturation point (30%) and standard dried point (12%). Results were statistically treated with t-test and demonstrated increases in six mechanical properties from Eucalyptus triantha wood species: rupture moduli in perpendicular and parallel compressions and static bending; elasticity moduli in parallel tensile, perpendicular compression, and static bending. Volumetric mass and bulk densities were practically stable. Physical and mechanical properties estimation evinced that Eucalyptus triantha wood can be used in structural elements.

    D: Rare Plants Species and Wildlife Habitats

    Appendix D – Rare Plant Species and Wildlife Habitats Rare Plant Species and Wildlife Habitats The habitat profiles created for the Wildlife Action Plan have been developed for the purpose of describing the full range of habitats that support New Hampshire’s wildlife species. However, these habitats can also serve as useful units for identifying rare plant habitats. This appendix provides lists of rare plant species known to be associated with each WAP habitat type. In accordance with the Native Plant Protection Act (NH RSA 217-A), the New Hampshire Natural Heritage Bureau (NHB) maintains a list of the state’s rarest and most imperiled plant species. This list has been developed in cooperation with researchers, conservation organizations, and knowledgeable amateur botanists. Plant locations have been obtained from sources including herbarium specimens, personal contacts, the scientific literature, and through extensive field research. The list is updated regularly to reflect changes in information. For each habitat, a list of associated rare plant species is presented. These rare plant – habitat associations are based on known occurrences of each species in New Hampshire. It is possible that an individual species will have different habitat associations elsewhere in its range. For more information on dominant and characteristic plant species for each habitat, refer to the individual habitat profiles. For each species, the following information is provided: Scientific name: The primary reference used is: Haines, Arthur. 2011. Flora Novae Angliae: A Manual for the Identification of Native and Naturalized Higher Vascular Plants of New England. Yale University Press. New Haven and London. Common name: Many plant species have more than one common name, and some common names are applied to multiple species.
