SHOALS SPIDER-LILY Scientific Name: Hymenocallis Coronaria
Common Name: SHOALS SPIDER-LILY Scientific Name: Hymenocallis coronaria (J. LeConte) Kunth Other Commonly Used Names: Cahaba lily, Catawba lily Previously Used Scientific Names: Hymenocallis caroliniana (L.) Herbert (misapplied name) Family: Amaryllidaceae (amaryllis) Rarity Ranks: G2/S2 State Legal Status: Threatened Federal Legal Status: none Federal Wetland Status: OBL Description: Perennial herb with a large, round bulb that lodges among rocks in rocky shoals. Leaves 15 - 37 inches (38 - 95 cm) long, erect, leathery, strap-like, deciduous. Flower stalk 15 - 49 inches (40 - 125 cm) tall, stout, two-edged, topped with 3 - 12 buds that usually open one per day. Flowers showy, fragrant, consisting of a green tube; 6 narrow, white segments (tepals), up to 4 inches long and radiating up and outward; and a showy corona, 2 - 3 inches (5 - 8.5 cm) across, white with yellow-green eye, broadly funnel- or cup-shaped, toothed, with 6 attached stamens. Fruit about 1¼ inch (3 cm) broad, rounded, green, one-seeded. Similar Species: Several similar species of spider-lily grow in floodplains, tidal marshes, and on riverbanks, but no other similar species occurs in rocky shoals of large Piedmont streams. Swamp-lily (Crinum americanum), a common wetland plant in the Coastal Plain, has 2 - 6 flowers per stalk, flowers with long white tepals but no corona, and tiny teeth along the leaf margins. Related Rare Species: See Simpson’s rain-lily (Zephyranthes simpsonii, Special Concern) on this website. Habitat: Rocky shoals of large streams and rivers in the lower Piedmont. Life History: Shoals spider-lily is a perennial herb that reproduces sexually as well as vegetatively by production of bulbs, which results in large, clonal patches of plants. -
Flora of the Carolinas, Virginia, and Georgia, Working Draft of 17 March 2004 -- ACORACEAE
Flora of the Carolinas, Virginia, and Georgia, Working Draft of 17 March 2004 -- ACORACEAE ACORACEAE Martinov 1820 (Calamus Family) The family consists only of Acorus. References: Thompson in FNA (2000); Bogner & Mayo in Kubitzki (1998b). Acorus Linnaeus 1753 (Calamus, Sweetflag) A genus of 2-4 species, widespread in north temperate and subtropical regions. Although traditionally treated as part of the Araceae, recent evidence strongly suggests that Acorus should be segregated in a separate family. A wide variety of morphological, anatomical, and embryological evidence supports the segregation of the Acoraceae (Grayum 1987), a segregation additionally supported by molecular studies (Duvall et al. 1993, Chase et al. 1993). The spathe in Acorus is not morphologically equivalent to the spathe of the Araceae.
