  • Density, Distribution and Habitat Requirements for the Ozark Pocket Gopher (Geomys Bursarius Ozarkensis)
    DENSITY, DISTRIBUTION AND HABITAT REQUIREMENTS FOR THE OZARK POCKET GOPHER (Geomys bursarius ozarkensis) Audrey Allbach Kershen, B. S. Thesis Prepared for the Degree of MASTER OF SCIENCE UNIVERSITY OF NORTH TEXAS May 2004 APPROVED: Kenneth L. Dickson, Co-Major Professor Douglas A. Elrod, Co-Major Professor Thomas L. Beitinger, Committee Member Sandra L. Terrell, Interim Dean of the Robert B. Toulouse School of Graduate Studies Kershen, Audrey Allbach, Density, distribution and habitat requirements for the Ozark pocket gopher (Geomys bursarius ozarkensis). Master of Science (Environmental Science), May 2004, 67 pp., 6 tables, 6 figures, 69 references. A new subspecies of the plains pocket gopher (Geomys bursarius ozarkensis), located in the Ozark Mountains of north central Arkansas, was recently described by Elrod et al. (2000). Current range for G. b. ozarkensis was established, habitat preference was assessed by analyzing soil samples, vegetation and distance to stream and potential pocket gopher habitat within the current range was identified. A census technique was used to estimate a total density of 3, 564 pocket gophers. Through automobile and aerial survey 51 known fields of inhabitance were located extending the range slightly. Soil analyses indicated loamy sand as the most common texture with a slightly acidic pH and a broad range of values for other measured soil parameters and 21 families of vegetation were identified. All inhabited fields were located within an average of 107.2m from waterways and over 1,600 hectares of possible suitable habitat was identified.

  • (Poaceae: Paniceae), with Lectotypification of Panicum Divisum

Gmelin) Verloove, Govaerts & Buttler, is proposed for the species widely known as Pennisetum divisum (J.F. Gmelin) Henrard, and a lectotype for Panicum divisum J.F. Gmelin is designated. Key words: Cenchrus, lectotypification, nomenclature, Panicum As a result of recent molecular phylogenetic studies the generic boundaries of Cenchrus L. and related genera have considerably changed. Donadio et al. (2009) found that Cenchrus and Pennisetum Rich. are very closely related and demonstrated that most species of Cenchrus are in fact nested in Pennisetum. Chemisquy et al. (2010) confirmed these results and recommended merging both genera. The generic name Cenchrus having priority, all species of Pennisetum needed to be transferred to Cenchrus. Morrone (in Chemisquy et al., 2010) published new combinations in Cenchrus for most of the species and Symon (2010) made some additional name changes for a few Australian taxa. The correct names in Cenchrus for all but one of the 15 Pennisetum species in Europe and the Mediterranean area, including four new combinations, were given in Verloove (2012).

  • "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.

  • Grass Genera in Townsville
    Grass Genera in Townsville Nanette B. Hooker Photographs by Chris Gardiner SCHOOL OF MARINE and TROPICAL BIOLOGY JAMES COOK UNIVERSITY TOWNSVILLE QUEENSLAND James Cook University 2012 GRASSES OF THE TOWNSVILLE AREA Welcome to the grasses of the Townsville area. The genera covered in this treatment are those found in the lowland areas around Townsville as far north as Bluewater, south to Alligator Creek and west to the base of Hervey’s Range. Most of these genera will also be found in neighbouring areas although some genera not included may occur in specific habitats. The aim of this book is to provide a description of the grass genera as well as a list of species. The grasses belong to a very widespread and large family called the Poaceae. The original family name Gramineae is used in some publications, in Australia the preferred family name is Poaceae. It is one of the largest flowering plant families of the world, comprising more than 700 genera, and more than 10,000 species. In Australia there are over 1300 species including non-native grasses. In the Townsville area there are more than 220 grass species. The grasses have highly modified flowers arranged in a variety of ways. Because they are highly modified and specialized, there are also many new terms used to describe the various features. Hence there is a lot of terminology that chiefly applies to grasses, but some terms are used also in the sedge family. The basic unit of the grass inflorescence (The flowering part) is the spikelet. The spikelet consists of 1-2 basal glumes (bracts at the base) that subtend 1-many florets or flowers.

  • Published Vestigations Together Study Existing Accept Arrangements

In a former article new combinations and critical observa- 1) many all the world.

The old system of Bentham, once the basis for a total is and modified and review, now more more many tribes are and limited. The have purified more exactly most recent system we at the moment, is Hubbard’s treatment of this family in the work of Hutchinson: The families of flowering plants. Vol. II. Monocotyle- dons. The grasses are divided there into 26 tribes. We have here the great advantage that aberrant which are into genera, not easy to place one of the formerly accepted tribes, are given as representatives of distinct new tribes. The curious tropical genus Streptochaeta f.i. con- stitutes the tribe of the Streptochaeteae. It is quite acceptable that tribes consist of but may one genus, especially when such a genus is a totally deviating one and cannot be inserted into one of the already existing ones. Such tribes are f.i. the Nardeae with the only northern genus Nardus, and the Mediterranean tribe of the Lygeeae with the only genus Lygeum, one of the Esparto grasses. It is therefore wonder no that Hubbard creates a new tribe, the Anomochloeae, for one of the most curious tropical grasses of the world.
