  • Forest Succession in Tropical Hardwood Hammocks of the Florida Keys: Effects of Direct Mortality from Hurricane Andrew1
    BIOTROPICA 33(1): 23±33 2001 Forest Succession in Tropical Hardwood Hammocks of the Florida Keys: Effects of Direct Mortality from Hurricane Andrew1 Michael S. Ross2 Florida International University, Southeast Environmental Research Center, University Park, Miami, Florida 33199, U.S.A. Mary Carrington Environmental Biology, Governors State University, University Park, Illinois 60466, U.S.A. Laura J. Flynn The Nature Conservancy, Lower Hudson Chapter, 41 South Moger Avenue, Mt. Kisco, New York 10549, U.S.A. Pablo L. Ruiz Florida International University, Southeast Environmental Research Center, University Park, Miami, Florida 33199, U.S.A. ABSTRACT A tree species replacement sequence for dry broadleaved forests (tropical hardwood hammocks) in the upper Florida Keys was inferred from species abundances in stands abandoned from agriculture or other anthropogenic acitivities at different times in the past. Stands were sampled soon after Hurricane Andrew, with live and hurricane-killed trees recorded separately; thus it was also possible to assess the immediate effect of Hurricane Andrew on stand successional status. We used weighted averaging regression to calculate successional age optima and tolerances for all species, based on the species composition of the pre-hurricane stands. Then we used weighted averaging calibration to calculate and compare inferred successional ages for stands based on (1) the species composition of the pre-hurricane stands and (2) the hurricane-killed species assemblages. Species characteristic of the earliest stages of post-agricultural stand de- velopment remains a signi®cant component of the forest for many years, but are gradually replaced by taxa not present, even as seedlings, during the ®rst few decades.

Humber Insect Mycologist and Curator, ARSEF UPDATED July 2011 Some seemingly dramatic and comparatively recent changes in the classification of a number of fungi may continue to cause confusion or a degree of discomfort to many of the clients of the cultures and informational resources provided by the ARSEF culture collection. This short treatment is an attempt to summarize some of these changes, the reasons for them, and to provide the essential references to the literature in which the changes are proposed. As the Curator of the ARSEF collection I wish to assure you that these changes are appropriate, progressive, and necessary to modernize and to stabilize the systematics of the fungal pathogens affecting insects and other invertebrates, and I urge you to adopt them into your own thinking, teaching, and publications.

  • Woody and Herbaceous Plants Native to Haiti for Use in Miami-Dade Landscapes1
    Woody and Herbaceous Plants Native to Haiti For use in Miami-Dade Landscapes1 Haiti occupies the western one third of the island of Hispaniola with the Dominican Republic the remainder. Of all the islands within the Caribbean basin Hispaniola possesses the most varied flora after that of Cuba. The plants contained in this review have been recorded as native to Haiti, though some may now have been extirpated due in large part to severe deforestation. Less than 1.5% of the country’s original tree-cover remains. Haiti’s future is critically tied to re- forestation; loss of tree cover has been so profound that exotic fast growing trees, rather than native species, are being used to halt soil erosion and lessen the risk of mudslides. For more information concerning Haiti’s ecological plight consult references at the end of this document. For present purposes all of the trees listed below are native to Haiti, which is why non-natives such as mango (the most widely planted tree) and other important trees such as citrus, kassod tree (Senna siamea) and lead tree (Leucanea leucocephala) are not included. The latter two trees are among the fast growing species used for re-forestation. The Smithsonian National Museum of Natural History’s Flora of the West Indies was an invaluable tool in assessing the range of plants native to Haiti. Not surprisingly many of the listed trees and shrubs 1 John McLaughlin Ph.D. U.F./Miami-Dade County Extension Office, Homestead, FL 33030 Page | 1 are found in other parts of the Caribbean with some also native to South Florida.

  • View of Endemism in the Flora Has Decreased the Number of Endemics to 89 Species Within 54 Genera and 29 Families (Freid Et Al
    ABSTRACT A FLORISTIC STUDY OF A FORMER LAND BRIDGE IN THE BAHAMA ARCHIPELAGO by Mark Leo Daniels A floristic study of plant communities was conducted on the islands of Eleuthera, Little San Salvador, and Cat Island. The objectives of this analysis were to explore the species composition and distribution of dry forest communities among the three study sites, and to propose new classification types to facilitate plant conservation in The Bahamas, as outlined by the International Classification of Ecological Communities for Caribbean vegetation types. Unconstrained ordination, cluster analysis and indicator species analysis indicated two dominant forest types across the three study sites: the Coccothrinax argentata-Reynosia septentironalis and Coccoloba diversifolia-Bursera simaruba Alliances. Nested within these forest types were 8 species associations: Coccothrinax argentata– Reynosia septentrionalis – Pithecellobium keyense association; Zanthoxylum flavum – Jacquinia keyensis – Casasia clusiifolia association; Acacia choriophylla - Pithcellobium keyense - Guapira discolor association; Coccoloba diversifolia- Sideroxylon americanum-Pseudophoenix sargentii association; Maytenus buxifolia- Sideroxylon salicifolium association; Exothea paniculata-Tabebuia bahamensis- Metopium toxiferum association; Guaiacum sanctum association; Eugenia foetida- Exostema caribeaum-Bourreria succulenta association.

The application states “1.02 acres of closed canopy hammock is not contiguous with the property and represents only 38 percent of upland areas, the remainder of which is cleared and contains a significant lawful development including a commercial structure, a residence, a guest house and a pool.” (App., p. 2 of 5). That statement is unclear. If it is meant to suggest that the entire property should not be designated Tier 1, that approach is inconsistent with Monroe County Code section 130-130 (b), which states “[t]ier boundaries shall follow property lines wherever possible, except where a parcel line or distinct geographical feature, such as a canal or roadway.” But, whatever “not contiguous with the property” means, the statement does not support the requested change.

  • An Old-Growth Definition for Tropical and Subtropical Forests in Florida
    United States Department of An Old-Growth Definition for Agriculture Forest Service Tropical and Subtropical Forests in Florida Southern Kenneth W. Outcalt Research Station General Technical Report SRS-13 A Section of the Old-Growth Definition Series ___________ The Author: ___________ Kenneth W. Outcalt, Research Plant Ecologist, Southern Research Station, U.S. Department of Agriculture, Forest Service, Athens, GA 30602-2044. Preface Old growth is widely acknowledged today as an essential part of managed forests, particularly on public lands. However, this concept is relatively new, evolving since the 1970's when a grassroots movement in the Pacific Northwest began in earnest to define old growth. In response to changes in public attitude, the U.S. Department of Agriculture, Forest Service, began reevaluating its policy regarding old-growth forests in the 1980's. Indeed, the ecological significance of old growth and its contribution to biodiversity were apparent. It was also evident that definitions were needed to adequately assess and manage the old-growth resource. However, definitions of old growth varied widely among scientists. To address this discrepancy and other old-growth issues, the National Old-Growth Task Group was formed in 1988. At the recommendation of this committee, old growth was officially recognized as a distinct resource by the Forest Service, greatly enhancing its status in forest management planning. The committee devised “The Generic Definition and Description of Old-Growth Forests” to serve as a basis for further work and to ensure uniformity among Forest Service Stations and Regions. Emphasis was placed on the quantification of old-growth attributes. At the urging of the Chief of the Forest Service, all Forest Service Stations and Regions began developing old-growth definitions for specific forest types.
