TAXONOMIC UNIQUENESS: The variety treleasei is 1 of 2 in the species Agave schottii; the other is var. schottii. In North America, the species schottii is 1 of 34 in the genus Agave. There are more than 200 species recognized from the southern USA to northern South America, and throughout the Caribbean. The variety treleasei is very rare and poorly known. In the Santa Catalina Mountains, it is possibly a polyploid form of schottii, or another case of hybridization between A. chrysantha or A. palmeri and A. schottii var. schottii (Hodgson 1987 Pers. Comm.). Formerly, a population in the Ajo Mountains was thought to be a disjunct population of var. treleasi, but through genetic testing, it was determined to be of hybrid origin between Agave s.

  • Lesser Prairie-Chicken Habitat Map for Portions of Eastern New Mexico
    ________________________________________________________________________ Lesser Prairie-Chicken Habitat Map for Portions of Eastern New Mexico ________________________________________________________________________ 16 November 2005 Lesser Prairie-Chicken Habitat Map for 1 Portions of Eastern New Mexico Paul Neville, Teri Neville, and Kristine Johnson2 ABSTRACT The purpose of this project was to provide a map depicting the extent and location of lesser prairie-chicken habitat in New Mexico. The 923,441 ha (2,281,868 ac) study area includes most of the remaining occupied habitat for the lesser prairie-chicken in the state. We used field data in conjunction with satellite imagery and aerial photography to create a vegetation map. We classified the map according to plant associations and subsequently regrouped it into map units that incorporated landforms, to reflect the habitat requirements of lesser prairie-chickens. We performed GIS analyses incorporating vegetation type, patch size, and fragmentation to identify areas of high quality lesser prairie-chicken habitat. These analyses demonstrate that only three places within the mapped area contain large patches of suitable habitat, and one of those is south of US 380, where LPCH populations are already sparse and scattered. The GIS analyses also indicate that the vast majority of high-quality vegetation types occur in patches smaller than 3200 ha, rendering them by most definitions below the minimum size required by LPCH. Used in combination with GIS analysis and current LPCH population data, the map represents a powerful management, planning, and monitoring tool. 1 Draft Final report submitted 31 August 2005 in partial fulfillment of Task Order 5 to Cooperative Agreement No. GDA010009 between Natural Heritage New Mexico at the University of New Mexico and Bureau of Land Management; Work Order No.

  • LEARNING ECOLOGY: ETHNOBOTANY in the SIERRA TARAHUMARA, MEXICO by FELICE SEA WYNDHAM (Under the Direction of Brent Berlin) ABSTR
    LEARNING ECOLOGY: ETHNOBOTANY IN THE SIERRA TARAHUMARA, MEXICO by FELICE SEA WYNDHAM (Under the Direction of Brent Berlin) ABSTRACT This dissertation investigates social-environmental factors contributing to differential ethnobotanical expertise among children in Rarámuri (Tarahumara) communities in Rejogochi, Chihuahua, Mexico. This research contributes to understanding processes of transmission and acquisition of environmental knowledge and to the development of an ecological, interactionist model of indigenous education. The first section describes an ethnography of Rarámuri childhood, focusing on children’s life stages, work, play, and family environments. Some aspects of Rarámuri epistemologies of learning are explored. Among these is the importance of relationship maintenance through ritual and thinking/behaving well. Structured interviews with Rarámuri children between the ages of 5 and 18 showed consensus as to the primary importance of mothers, fathers, aunts and uncles as teachers of plant knowledge. Secondarily, siblings, cousins and playmates were identified as teachers. The second section presents a quantitative study of children’s knowledge of a set of 40 culturally significant local plants in three use-categories: medicinal, edible, and other material utility. The social-environmental factors significant in predicting levels of plant knowledge among children were, most notably, which primary school (of two local choices) children attended and, to a lesser extent, age of the child completing the interview. Plant-name and plant-use interviews suggest that many children today are not acquiring their parents’ full repertoire of plant knowledge, but rather, exhibit knowledge of a restricted set of plants that are most salient culturally and ecologically. The discussion of results highlights the importance of understanding how knowledge distribution patterns correspond to social relationships, social roles, and individual and family interest and experience.

  • Floristic Surveys of Saguaro National Park Protected Natural Areas
    Floristic Surveys of Saguaro National Park Protected Natural Areas William L. Halvorson and Brooke S. Gebow, editors Technical Report No. 68 United States Geological Survey Sonoran Desert Field Station The University of Arizona Tucson, Arizona USGS Sonoran Desert Field Station The University of Arizona, Tucson The Sonoran Desert Field Station (SDFS) at The University of Arizona is a unit of the USGS Western Ecological Research Center (WERC). It was originally established as a National Park Service Cooperative Park Studies Unit (CPSU) in 1973 with a research staff and ties to The University of Arizona. Transferred to the USGS Biological Resources Division in 1996, the SDFS continues the CPSU mission of providing scientific data (1) to assist U.S. Department of Interior land management agencies within Arizona and (2) to foster cooperation among all parties overseeing sensitive natural and cultural resources in the region. It also is charged with making its data resources and researchers available to the interested public. Seventeen such field stations in California, Arizona, and Nevada carry out WERC’s work. The SDFS provides a multi-disciplinary approach to studies in natural and cultural sciences. Principal cooperators include the School of Renewable Natural Resources and the Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology at The University of Arizona. Unit scientists also hold faculty or research associate appointments at the university. The Technical Report series distributes information relevant to high priority regional resource management needs. The series presents detailed accounts of study design, methods, results, and applications possibly not accommodated in the formal scientific literature. Technical Reports follow SDFS guidelines and are subject to peer review and editing.

Se presenta también la lista actualizada de las especies de ambas familias, ordenadas alfabéticamente. Para cada taxon se señala su distribución por estado y por provincia florística. Los estados más ricos son: Oaxaca con 63 taxa, Durango con 52, Puebla con 50, San Luis Potosí y Sonora con 47 y Chihuahua con 45. En cuanto a las provincias florísticas con un número mayor de taxa están: las Serranías Meridionales, Sierra Madre Occidental y Altiplanicie. Para México, hasta el momento, se han realizado cinco floras regionales y cuatro listados florísticos, en los que se aborda el estudio de las Agavaceae y Nolinaceae a diferentes niveles. Los géneros Agave, Beaucarnea, Beschorneria, Ma11freda y Prochnyanthes han sido objeto de tratamientos taxonómicos; otros como Dasylirion, Furcraea y Polianthes se encuentran en diferentes etapas de desarrollo, en tanto que Calibanus, Hesperaloii, Nolina, Yucca y varios grupos de Agave, requieren una revisión actualizada.

    The Forgotten Flora of la Frontera Thomas R. Van Devender and Ana Lilia Reina Arizona-Sonora Desert Museum, Tucson, AZ Abstract—About 1,500 collections from within 100 kilometers of the Arizona border in Sonora yielded noteworthy records for 164 plants including 44 new species (12 non-native) for Sonora and 12 (six non-native) for Mexico, conservation species, and regional endemics. Many com- mon widespread species were poorly collected. Southern range extensions (120 species) were more numerous than northern extensions (20), although nine potentially occur in Arizona. Non-native species dispersed along highways and escaped from cultivation. The Turkish poppy (Glaucium corniculatum), established near Agua Prieta, may reach Arizona. African buffelgrass (Pennisetum ciliare) and Natal grass (Melinis repens) are rapidly expanding into new, higher elevation areas. Beginning with Howard Gentry, Forrest Shreve, and Ira Introduction Wiggins in the 1930s, botanists from the United States rushed In northeastern Sonora, grassland and Chihuahuan southward to the tantalizing tropical deciduous forests of the desertscrub extend across the border from Arizona and Río Mayo region of southeastern Sonora, the treasures of the New Mexico.
