A corridor of pollinator gardens in neighborhoods, cities, and rural areas around the country could provide enough habitat to restore healthy communities of beneficial insects and pollinators. PLANTS FOR POLLINATORS CALENDAR Be aware that this plant list is a sampling of possible native and non‐native plants available for pollinators. Criteria for selection on this list: well‐behaved; less “messy” than some; easy to find; drought‐tolerant (“right plant, right plant”); multi‐functional (two functions+); and focus on being good for variety of bees. *Bloom times are approximate and will depend upon the weather that season as well as microclimates/site conditions; Observe bloom times of different species you’ve planted and tweak it so you have multiple species blooming over the growing season (Feb. – Oct.). You can find non‐native “versions” of some native plants listed.

Floral Anatomy ef Cauloplrytlum MICHX., Leontice L., Gymnospermium SpACH and Bongardia MEY. Susumu TERABAYASHI (Received iNovember 13, l981) Abstract The floral anatomy of CauloPh71tum, Leontice, G"mnospermittm and Bongardia are discussed with special reference given to vasculature. Comparisons offloral anatomy are made with the other genera og the tribe Epimedieae. The vasculature in the receptacle of Caulopnjilum, Leontice and G]mnospermiitm is similar, but that of Bongardia differs in the very thick xylem of the receptacular stele and in the independent origin ef the traces to the sepals, petals and stamens from the stele. A tendency is recognized in that the outer floral elements receive traces ofa sing]e nature in origin from the stele while the inner elements receive traces ofa double nature. The traces to the inner e}ements are often clerived from common bundles in Caulop/tyllttm, Leontice and G"mnospermittm. A similar tendency is observed in the trace pattern in the other genera of Epimedieae, but the adnation of the traces is not as distinct as in the genera treated in this study.

APPROVED BY MEMBERS OF THE THESIS COMMITEE: Richard D. Tocher Clyde • Calvin . One serious problem faced by the forest industry in the Pacific Northwest is poor regeneration of commercial trees ~ land which is har­ vested and subsequently dominated by brush species. In Coastal Oregon, salmonberry is one of these brush species. Detailed investigations of field sites indicate that light i~tensity in the brush stands was low but sufficient for germination and early growth of Douglas-fir seedlings and soil moisture percentages and nutrient levels were high enough to support early Douglas-fir growth.

Mason-Gamer Abstract.—The Lonicera clade Caprifolium contains 25 species distributed around the Northern Hemisphere, including in the Mediterranean climates of California and Europe.∼ We sequenced the second intron of LFY to help resolve relationships within the clade where the internal transcribed spacer and chloroplast markers had previously failed to do so. Divergence Downloaded from time estimation and biogeographic analyses over the posterior distribution of dated trees suggest that a widespread an- cestor was distributed across the Northern Hemisphere some 7–17 million years ago. Asian species form a sister group to a clade in which the European species are sister to the North American species. We use climatic niche modeling and divergence time estimates to explore the evolution of climate variables in the group.
