Why Native and Adapted? Native plants (why important) Adapted plants (benefits, considerations) Other terms (cultivars, invasives) B. Eco-regions, Adaptations, and Wildlife Value of Native Texas Plants Part II: Getting to Know the Guide Part III: Plant Selections for Specific Garden Needs 1 9/13/2016 Why Native and Adapted? For the benefit of our Austin and Texas wildlife and landscape, it is helpful to select plants that: Are water-wise Are drought-tolerant Have wildlife value (esp. natives) Are naturally resistant to pests and diseases (esp. natives) Need less maintenance and fertilizing Also, higher survivability saves money! Bumblebee on Shrubby Boneset, or White Mistflower What is native? A native species is one that exists naturally in an eco-region without human introduction, direct or indirect. Native flora and fauna in an ecological community, having evolved together, are often interdependent. Autumn Sage (Cherry Sage), Datura, Blackfoot Daisy 2 9/13/2016 Why Are Native Plants Important? They protect Texas’ biodiversity They gain back natural ecosystems for our native flora and fauna wildlife interdependence They are specially adapted to handle Texas soil and weather They use less water and require less maintenance, fertilizing, and pest control They protect our watersheds They keep Texas beautiful! Adapted Plants Adapted plants are non-invasive, non-native plants that are able to thrive in the local climate and soil conditions.

The purpose of a 5-year review is to evaluate whether or not the species’ status has changed since it was listed (or since the most recent 5-year review). Based on the 5-year review, we recommend whether the species should be removed from the list of endangered and threatened species, be changed in status from endangered to threatened, or be changed in status from threatened to endangered. Our original listing as endangered or threatened is based on the species’ status considering the five threat factors described in section 4(a)(1) of the Act.

  • EAHCP 2019 Annual Report
    Edwards Aquifer Habitat Conservation Plan 2019 Annual Report Prepared for The U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service On behalf of The Edwards Aquifer Habitat Conservation Plan and Permittees Prepared by Blanton & Associates, Inc. March 27, 2020 EDWARDS AQUIFER HABITAT CONSERVATION PLAN 2019 ANNUAL REPORT PAGE i THIS PAGE INTENTIONALLY LEFT BLANK EDWARDS AQUIFER HABITAT CONSERVATION PLAN 2019 ANNUAL REPORT PAGE ii EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Edwards Aquifer Habitat Conservation Plan The Edwards Aquifer Habitat Conservation Plan (EAHCP) is the primary document that establishes the cooperative effort to protect the water of the Southern Segment of the Edwards Aquifer (“Edwards” or “Aquifer”) both for people in the region and the threatened and endangered species that inhabit the Aquifer, and aquatic spring environments whose water largely emanates from the Aquifer. This effort began when regional stakeholders and the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service (USFWS) initiated the Edwards Aquifer Recovery Implementation Program (EARIP) in 2006. The Texas Legislature mandated participation in the process by the Edwards Aquifer Authority (EAA), Texas Commission on Environmental Quality, Texas Department of Agriculture, Texas Parks & Wildlife Department (TPWD), and Texas Water Development Board (TWDB). The EARIP planning group led to the creation of the process known as the EAHCP Program, which has now been fully transitioned from the EARIP. The EAHCP was completed in November 2012 and led to the approval of an Incidental Take Permit (ITP) under the federal Endangered Species Act of 1973 (ESA) issued in February 2013 by the USFWS to be effective in March 2013. The ITP has been amended once. This Annual Report has been prepared for submittal to the USFWS, as required by the ITP.

Of 34 metaphase chromosomes, 30 have centromeres at median position, two at submedian position, and two at terminal-subterrninal position. Shared basic chromosome number x=17 suggests close relationships of Tttxtla to P2irbesina. (Rcceived August 28, 1992; Accepted October 8, 1992) Key words:Asteraceae, Chromosome, Compositae,7leixtla. Tttxtla pittieri is a woody liana of Asteraceae (Compositae) and was recently described by Villasenor and Strother (1989) as the only species of a new genus from Costa Rica and southern Veracruz of Mexico. Villasenor and Strother (1989) made intensive and extensive observations on its vegetative and reproductive morphology, and, on the basis of phenetic analyses using 129 characters, suggest a distant relationship of 7le{xtla to any of other possibly related genera Otopmppus, SaLmea, Vkrbayina, and Zexmenia. The present paper reports on chromosome number and morphology of 7letxtla pittieri that is not known yet, and discusses similarities and dissimilarities in chfornosome features between 7}txtla and the other genera.
