Wild Plants of Ohlone Regional Wilderness
Wild Plants of Ohlone Regional Wilderness Grouped by Growth Form Alphabetical by Scientific Name September 5, 2003 Wild Plants of Ohlone Regional Wilderness Grouped by Growth Form Alphabetical by Scientific Name This document contains a comprehensive list of the wild plants reported to be found in Ohlone Regional Wilderness. The plants are grouped according to their growth form for easy accessibility. These four groups are: Ferns & Horsetails, Grasses & Grasslike, Herbaceous, and Woody. The plants within each group are listed alphabetically by scientific name. Other information on each plant includes the common name, family, whether the plant is native or introduced, and its longevity. For quick reference, the upper left corner of each page displays both the group name (based on growth form) and the genus of the first scientific name. The abbreviations used: Checklist column for marking off the plants you observe Scientific Name According to The Jepson Manual: Higher Plants of California, 1993 Common Name According to Jepson and other references (highly variable) Family The scientific plant family name according to Jepson L Longevity: Annual (a), Biennial (b), Perennial (p), or a combination N/I Native (n) or Introduced (i) according to Jepson The listing of plants included in this document is by no means complete. The intent is to maintain an ongoing inventory to which additional plants can be added over time. Readers are encouraged to report any corrections or additions to this list by emailing the District Botanist (Wilde Legard, [email protected]). This welcomed assistance will help facilitate improved management of the Park District’s natural resources. -

Washington Flora Checklist a Checklist of the Vascular Plants of Washington State Hosted by the University of Washington Herbarium
Washington Flora Checklist A checklist of the Vascular Plants of Washington State Hosted by the University of Washington Herbarium The Washington Flora Checklist aims to be a complete list of the native and naturalized vascular plants of Washington State, with current classifications, nomenclature and synonymy. The checklist currently contains 3,929 terminal taxa (species, subspecies, and varieties). Taxa included in the checklist: * Native taxa whether extant, extirpated, or extinct. * Exotic taxa that are naturalized, escaped from cultivation, or persisting wild. * Waifs (e.g., ballast plants, escaped crop plants) and other scarcely collected exotics. * Interspecific hybrids that are frequent or self-maintaining. * Some unnamed taxa in the process of being described. Family classifications follow APG IV for angiosperms, PPG I (J. Syst. Evol. 54:563?603. 2016.) for pteridophytes, and Christenhusz et al. (Phytotaxa 19:55?70. 2011.) for gymnosperms, with a few exceptions. Nomenclature and synonymy at the rank of genus and below follows the 2nd Edition of the Flora of the Pacific Northwest except where superceded by new information. Accepted names are indicated with blue font; synonyms with black font. Native species and infraspecies are marked with boldface font. Please note: This is a working checklist, continuously updated. Use it at your discretion. Created from the Washington Flora Checklist Database on September 17th, 2018 at 9:47pm PST.

Rare Plant Surveys of the Rockville Trails Estates Site in 2005

This letter updates the interim letter report of April 18, 2008. The selected survey areas (Figure 1) were among those few areas that were not surveyed during the original rare plant surveys of the Rockville Trails Estates site in 2005. Subsequently, project modifications entailed additional surveys to ensure absence of impacts to special-status plant species. METHODS Selected areas of the Rockville Trails Estates site were surveyed on March 31, April 9, May 8, May 20, and July 16, 2008 for special-status plant species. The use of a GPS device assisted in located the survey sites. RESULTS Plants that are either federally or state listed or on the CNPS list 1A, 1B or 2 were not observed within the designated survey areas. The majority of the areas was dominated by grassland and had extensive areas of shallow soil and rock outcrops. Two of the areas supported large manzanitas (Arctostaphylos manzanita) up to 12 feet tall and 8 inches in diameter. One of the areas was dominated by oak woodland and one of the areas supported some species of shrubs: California sagebrush (Artemisia californica) and sticky monkey flower (Mimulus aurantiacus). -

I have desired to complement this body of information with studies on the anatomy of the subtribe so that a more adequate picture of variation and evolution in this remarkable group could be obtained. The anatomical diversity of the Madinae is, in fact, no less interesting than the variation patterns in cytological, genetical, and morphological characters. The latter features lend themselves well to studies of speci ation, whereas the anatomical characters evidence trends in the development of genera or criteria for defining the group as a whole. In a number of instances, species dif ferences are also revealed by anatomical studies. The primary focus of this study is the definition of the subtribe and its genera, and the exposition of phyletic tendencies within the Madinae by combination of anatomical data with that of other disciplines. -
Current Status of the Vegetation in Historic
CURRENT STATUS OF THE VEGETATION IN HISTORIC KARUK CULTURAL USE SITES by Ellen Aegidia de Rijke A Thesis Presented to The Faculty of Humboldt State University In Partial Fulfillment Of the Requirement for the Degree Master of Arts May 2001 CURRENT STATUS OF THE VEGETATION IN HISTORIC KARUK CULTURAL USE SITES by Ellen de Rijke We certify that we have read this study and that it conforms to acceptable standards of scholarly presentation and is fully acceptable, in scope and quality, as a thesis for degree of Master of Arts. See original for signatures Major Professor John O. Sawyer, Major Professor Kathy Hill John Reiss John B. Stuart Approved by the Graduate Coordinator Milton J. Boyd Approved by the Graduate Dean ABSTRACT The Karuk Indians currently inhabit some half a million hectares of ancestral homeland in northern California and have done so for an unknown number of generations. Largely through the use of frequent, low intensity burns, the Karuk created, to some degree, the vegetation pattern encountered by Euro-Americans in the 1850’s. Since this time, Forest Service land management has been based on the philosophy that the elimination of fire is fundamental to preserving natural environments. I selected five historic Karuk cultural use sites to investigate the nature of change in the forest and the associated meadow as a result of fire suppression. I used digital orthoquadrangle maps to stratify the forest into tiers of plots with purposeful bias to capture potential change in stand structure and composition as distance from the meadow increased. I sampled these forests to determine structure (tree basal area and density) and composition (canopy, undestory, regeneration, shrub, and herbaceous species), Douglas-fir seedling density, and Douglas-fir age. -
