Floristic Quality Assessment Report
FLORISTIC QUALITY ASSESSMENT IN INDIANA: THE CONCEPT, USE, AND DEVELOPMENT OF COEFFICIENTS OF CONSERVATISM Tulip poplar (Liriodendron tulipifera) the State tree of Indiana June 2004 Final Report for ARN A305-4-53 EPA Wetland Program Development Grant CD975586-01 Prepared by: Paul E. Rothrock, Ph.D. Taylor University Upland, IN 46989-1001 Introduction Since the early nineteenth century the Indiana landscape has undergone a massive transformation (Jackson 1997). In the pre-settlement period, Indiana was an almost unbroken blanket of forests, prairies, and wetlands. Much of the land was cleared, plowed, or drained for lumber, the raising of crops, and a range of urban and industrial activities. Indiana’s native biota is now restricted to relatively small and often isolated tracts across the State. This fragmentation and reduction of the State’s biological diversity has challenged Hoosiers to look carefully at how to monitor further changes within our remnant natural communities and how to effectively conserve and even restore many of these valuable places within our State. To meet this monitoring, conservation, and restoration challenge, one needs to develop a variety of appropriate analytical tools. Ideally these techniques should be simple to learn and apply, give consistent results between different observers, and be repeatable. Floristic Assessment, which includes metrics such as the Floristic Quality Index (FQI) and Mean C values, has gained wide acceptance among environmental scientists and decision-makers, land stewards, and restoration ecologists in Indiana’s neighboring states and regions: Illinois (Taft et al. 1997), Michigan (Herman et al. 1996), Missouri (Ladd 1996), and Wisconsin (Bernthal 2003) as well as northern Ohio (Andreas 1993) and southern Ontario (Oldham et al.

(L.) Hartman (Cyperaceae) in the British Isles and N
Watsonia 22: 209-233 (1999) 209 Identification, distribution and a new nothosubspecies of Trichophorum cespitosum (L.) Hartman (Cyperaceae) in the British Isles and N. W. Europe a.A.SWAN 81 Wansdyke, Morpeth, Northumberland, NE61 3QY ABSTRACT The common form of Trichophorum cespitosum (L.) Hartman (Cyperaceae) in Britain and Ireland, growing in acidic peat, is subsp. germanicum. while subsp. cespitosum is rare in South Northumberland (v.c. 67) in marginal areas of Sphagnum mires, with base-enrichment, although specimens exist from elsewhere in Britain and Ireland. The characteristic Trichophorum of raised mires in v.c. 67 is a sterile hybrid between subsp. cespitosum and subsp. germanicum, corresponding to a plant found by E. Foerster in 1970 in the Harz Mountains and elsewhere in N. W. Germany, and for which the name Trichophorurn cespitosum (L.) Hartman nothosubsp. foersteri G. A. Swan, nothosubsp. novo is now proposed. The identification and distributions of these taxa are discussed. Possibly, in earlier times, subsp. cespitosum was the plant of raised mires in Britain, as in Norway today, but was displaced by the hybrid except in base-enriched, marginal areas. In Britain, proliferous forms of the hybrid and subsp. germanicum also occur. KEYWORDS: Deergrass, raised mires, Harz Mountains, nothosubsp.joersteri, floral proliferation. INTRODUCTION NOMENCLATURE The existence of two forms of Trichophorum cespitosum (Scirpus cespitosus L.), Deergrass (Cyperaceae) in Europe was noticed by Palla (1897), who described these as separate species, T. austriacum (= T. cespitosum) and T. germanicum. These species were separated on the basis of sheath character, stem anatomy and geographical distribution, the former being common in Austria and the latter in Germany.

Botanical and Ecological Inventory of Peatland Sites on the Medicine Bow National Forest
Botanical and Ecological Inventory of Peatland Sites on the Medicine Bow National Forest Prepared for Medicine Bow National Forest By Bonnie Heidel and Scott Laursen Wyoming Natural Diversity Database University of Wyoming P.O. Box 3381 Laramie, WY 82071 FS Agreement No. 02-CS-11021400-012 June 2003 ABSTRACT Peatlands are specialized wetland habitats that harbor high concentrations of Wyoming plant species of special concern. Intensive botanical and ecological inventories were conducted at five select peatland sites on Medicine Bow National Forest to further document the vascular flora, update information on plant species of special concern, initiate documentation of the bryophyte flora composition, and to document the vegetation associations. This provides a preliminary summary of peatland botanical and ecological resources on Medicine Bow National Forest, data for comparison between sites, and both floristic and vegetation plot datasets for comparison between Medicine Bow National Forest and Shoshone National Forest where parallel studies were undertaken. It might be used for more more extensive systematic inventories of peatlands and their associated botanical and ecological attributes across the Forest, or related efforts to evaluate watershed, wildlife, and other values associated with peatlands. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS John Proctor (USFS Medicine Bow NF) contributed to fieldwork and provided Forest Service coordination that made this project a reality. Judy Harpel (USFS) made the moss species identifications for a segment of moss specimens, and provided encouragement in bryophyte research. George Jones (WYNDD) and Kathy Roche (USFS Medicine Bow NF) provided literature and comments on site selection and study aspects. Gary Beauvais provided administrative support. Chris Hiemstra and Mark Lyford (UW) provided study site data.

Cyperaceae of Alberta
AN ILLUSTRATED KEY TO THE CYPERACEAE OF ALBERTA Compiled and writen by Linda Kershaw and Lorna Allen April 2019 © Linda J. Kershaw & Lorna Allen This key was compiled using information primarily from and the Flora North America Association (2008), Douglas et al. (1998), and Packer and Gould (2017). Taxonomy follows VASCAN (Brouillet, 2015). The main references are listed at the end of the key. Please try the key this summer and let us know if there are ways in which it can be improved. Over the winter, we hope to add illustrations for most of the entries. The 2015 S-ranks of rare species (S1; S1S2; S2; S2S3; SU, according to ACIMS, 2015) are noted in superscript ( S1; S2;SU) after the species names. For more details go to the ACIMS web site. Similarly, exotic species are followed by a superscript X, XX if noxious and XXX if prohibited noxious (X; XX; XXX) according to the Alberta Weed Control Act (2016).

Plant Fact Sheet for Nebraska Sedge (Carex Nebrascensis)
Plant Fact Sheet Conservation Uses: This species has utility for erosion NEBRASKA SEDGE control, constructed wetland system applications, wetland creation and restoration, and for increasing plant diversity Carex nebrascensis Dewey in wetland and riparian communities. The dense root Plant Symbol = CANE2 mass makes this species resistant to soil compaction and erosion. It also makes it an excellent choice for soil Contributed by: USDA NRCS Idaho Plant Materials stabilization in wetland and riparian sites. Nebraska Program sedge is used extensively in bioengineering techniques because of its/the dense root system. The rhizomes also form a matrix for many beneficial bacteria making this plant an excellent choice for wastewater treatment. Status Please consult the PLANTS Web site and your State Department of Natural Resources for this plant’s current status (e.g., threatened or endangered species, state noxious status, and wetland indicator values). Description and Adaptation Nebraska sedge is a native, perennial, heavily rhizomatous wetland plant that is found in low valleys to mid-elevations. It reproduces by rhizomes and seed. However, seedling establishment is rare, probably because it needs freshly deposited, fertile, moist soil. Shoots from rhizomes are produced throughout the growing season and into late fall. The stems are upright and triangular. The plants growing in saturated soils will grow to about 90 cm (35 in). The leaves are elongated, alternate, longer or shorter than the stem, up to 12 mm (0.5 in) wide, and often with a bluish tinge. The flowers are borne in spikes. Male and female spikes are usually separate and on the same plant (monoecious).
