  • Conifer Communities of the Santa Cruz Mountains and Interpretive
    UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA, SANTA CRUZ CALIFORNIA CONIFERS: CONIFER COMMUNITIES OF THE SANTA CRUZ MOUNTAINS AND INTERPRETIVE SIGNAGE FOR THE UCSC ARBORETUM AND BOTANIC GARDEN A senior internship project in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of BACHELOR OF ARTS in ENVIRONMENTAL STUDIES by Erika Lougee December 2019 ADVISOR(S): Karen Holl, Environmental Studies; Brett Hall, UCSC Arboretum ABSTRACT: There are 52 species of conifers native to the state of California, 14 of which are endemic to the state, far more than any other state or region of its size. There are eight species of coniferous trees native to the Santa Cruz Mountains, but most people can only name a few. For my senior internship I made a set of ten interpretive signs to be installed in front of California native conifers at the UCSC Arboretum and wrote an associated paper describing the coniferous forests of the Santa Cruz Mountains. Signs were made using the Arboretum’s laser engraver and contain identification and collection information, habitat, associated species, where to see local stands, and a fun fact or two. While the physical signs remain a more accessible, kid-friendly format, the paper, which will be available on the Arboretum website, will be more scientific with more detailed information. The paper will summarize information on each of the eight conifers native to the Santa Cruz Mountains including localized range, ecology, associated species, and topics pertaining to the species in current literature. KEYWORDS: Santa Cruz, California native plants, plant communities, vegetation types, conifers, gymnosperms, environmental interpretation, UCSC Arboretum and Botanic Garden I claim the copyright to this document but give permission for the Environmental Studies department at UCSC to share it with the UCSC community.

Morfología El abeto es un árbol de talla media, 20-30 m, de porte regular y tronco recto, cilíndrico y \!\{[ principales que tienden a ser plagiotrópicas, al igual que las secundarias y terciarias. Su corteza es delgada, de color grisáceo o blanquecino; lisa y suave hasta los 30 ó 40 años, oscureciéndose y resquebrajándose a partir de esa edad. Las yemas son rojizas, obtusas y están recubiertas por escamas ovales, obtusas y algo aquilladas (Amaral Franco, 1986; Ruiz de la Torre, 2006). ;8=8517 Abies alba es una especie dioica, con estróbilos unisexuales, que nacen típicamente en las ramas superiores. Los microesporangios y los macroesporangios se desarrollan en las yemas axilares (Owens, 1984). Todos los abetos requieren un periodo de dos años para completar su ciclo reproductivo. Los estróbilos femeninos son de forma oblongo- cilíndrica, de 2 a 4 cm de longitud, de color verdoso (Ruiz de la Torre, 2006). Aparecen de forma solitaria o en pequeños grupos en la parte superior de los ramillos del año anterior; lo que promueve la fertilización cruzada (Singh y Owens, 1982; Owens y Morris, 1998). Los conos masculinos tienen forma globosa, de 1 a 3 cm de longitud, de color pardo- rojizo, sentados. Aparecen aglomerados, principalmente, en las ramas bajas. El proceso de la polinización, la fertilización, la maduración de las semillas y la diseminación ocurren en la misma estación, en un periodo entre 90 y 120 días, después del año de iniciación de los estróbilos (Franklin y Ritchie, 1970).

  • Manzanitas (Arctostaphylos Species) Known to Be Susceptible to Phytophthora Ramorum
    April 3, 2020 Manzanitas (Arctostaphylos species) known to be susceptible to Phytophthora ramorum (Many of the species listed below are not yet on the USDA APHIS P. ramorum proven host or associated host list.) Arctostaphylos columbiana (bristly manzanita, hairy manzanita) – On the USDA APHIS P. ramorum associated host list. First reported in February 2006 by Rizzo, UC Davis (DiLeo et al. 2008). Arctostaphylos columbiana is native to the Pacific coast from northern California to British Columbia. Hairy manzanita is often available at native plant and horticultural nurseries. Arctostaphylos glandulosa (Eastwood's manzanita) – First reported with P. ramorum symptoms on Mt. Tamalpais in June 2015 (Rooney-Latham et al. 2017). Arctostaphylos glandulosa is native to the Pacific coast from Baja California to southern Oregon, and includes eleven subspecies (adamsii, atumescens, crassifolia, cushingiana, erecta, gabrielensis, glandulosa, howellii, juarezensis, leucophylla, mollis). Arctostaphylos glandulosa subsp. crassifolia (Del Mar manzanita) is listed as rare, threatened, or endangered in California and elsewhere (CA RPR 1B.1).

  • Literature Cited
    Literature Cited Robert W. Kiger, Editor This is a consolidated list of all works cited in volume 8, whether as selected references, in text, or in nomenclatural contexts. In citations of articles, both here and in the taxonomic treat- ments, and also in nomenclatural citations, the titles of serials are rendered in the forms recom- mended in G. D. R. Bridson and E. R. Smith (1991). When those forms are abbreviated, as most are, cross references to the corresponding full serial titles are interpolated here alphabetically by abbreviated form. In nomenclatural citations (only), book titles are rendered in the abbreviated forms recommended in F. A. Stafleu and R. S. Cowan (1976–1988) and F. A. Stafleu et al. (1992– 2009). Here, those abbreviated forms are indicated parenthetically following the full citations of the corresponding works, and cross references to the full citations are interpolated in the list alpha- betically by abbreviated form. Two or more works published in the same year by the same author or group of coauthors will be distinguished uniquely and consistently throughout all volumes of Flora of North America by lower-case letters (b, c, d, ...) suffixed to the date for the second and subsequent works in the set. The suffixes are assigned in order of editorial encounter and do not reflect chronological sequence of publication. The first work by any particular author or group from any given year carries the implicit date suffix “a”; thus, the sequence of explicit suffixes begins with “b”. There may be citations in this list that have dates suffixed “b” but that are not preceded by citations of “[a]” works for the same year, or that have dates suffixed “c,” “d,” or “e” but that are not preceded by citations of “[a],” “b,” “c,” and/or “d” works for that year.
