  • NATIONAL WETLANDS INVENTORY and the NATIONAL WETLANDS RESEARCH CENTER PROJECT REPORT FOR: GALVESTON BAY INTRODUCTION the U.S. Fi
    NATIONAL WETLANDS INVENTORY AND THE NATIONAL WETLANDS RESEARCH CENTER PROJECT REPORT FOR: GALVESTON BAY INTRODUCTION The U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service's National Wetlands Inventory is producing maps showing the location and classification of wetlands and deepwater habitats of the United States. The Classification of Wetlands and Deepwater Habitats of the United States by Cowardin et al. is the classification system used to define and classify wetlands. Upland classification will utilize the system put forth in., A Land Use and Land Cover Classification System For Use With Remote Sensor Data. by James R. Anderson, Ernest E. Hardy, John T. Roach, and Richard E. Witmer. Photo interpretation conventions, hydric soils-lists and wetland plants lists are also available to enhance the use and application of the classification system. The purpose of the report to users is threefold: (1) to provide localized information regarding the production of NWI maps, including field reconnaissance with a discussion of imagery and interpretation; (2) to provide a descriptive crosswalk from wetland codes on the map to common names and representative plant species; and (3) to explain local geography, climate, and wetland communities. II. FIELD RECONNAISSANCE Field reconnaissance of the work area is an integral part for the accurate interpretation of aerial photography. Photographic signatures are compared to the wetland's appearance in the field by observing vegetation, soil and topography. Thus information is weighted for seasonality and conditions existing at the time of photography and at ground truthing. Project Area The project area is located in the southeastern portion of Texas along the coast. Ground truthing covered specific quadrangles of each 1:100,000 including Houston NE, Houston SE, Houston NW, and Houston SW (See Appendix A, Locator Map).

  • Texas Coast Salt and Brackish Tidal Marsh
    ECOLOGICAL MAPPING SYSTEMS OF TEXAS: TEXAS COAST SALT AND BRACKISH TIDAL MARSH TEXAS COAST SALT AND BRACKISH TIDAL MARSH Nature Serve ID: CES203.473 Geology: Recent alluvial and eolian deposits along the coast. Landform: Nearly level very gentle slopes, and flats influenced by tides. Soils: Coastal sands and various Salt Marsh Ecological Sites. Description: These marshes occupy relatively low-lying, coastal situations on level landforms influenced by tidal fluctuations. Some sites are only influenced by storm tides, or tides resulting from extreme wind events. The composition of these marshes is primarily influenced by the frequency and duration of tidal inundation. Salinity on some marshes, particularly in the south, is maintained by salt spray from prevailing southeasterly winds. Low marshes are regularly flooded and representative examples are dominated by Spartina alterniflora (smooth cordgrass), Juncus roemerianus (blackrush), or Avicennia germinans (black mangrove). Significant areas of Avicennia germinans (black mangrove) become more frequent towards the south, while extensive areas of Spartina alterniflora (smooth cordgrass) become rare south of Corpus Christi Bay. Areas of decreased frequency and/or duration of tidal inundation are often referred to as high, or irregularly flooded, marsh. These marshes may be dominated by species such as Spartina patens (marshhay cordgrass), Distichlis spicata (saltgrass), Schoenoplectus robustus (sturdy bulrush), Schoenoplectus americanus (three-square bulrush), Sporobolus virginicus (seashore dropseed), Monanthochloe littoralis (shoregrass), and Spartina spartinae (Gulf cordgrass). Shrubs, subshrubs, and forbs, such as Batis maritima (saltwort), Borrichia frutescens (sea ox-eye daisy), Sesuvium portulacastrum (shoreline seapurslane), Salicornia spp. (glassworts), Suaeda linearis (annual seepweed), Limonium spp. (sea-lavenders), and Lycium carolinianum (Carolina wolfberry) are commonly encountered in these marshes.

  • Notes on Variation and Geography in Rayjacksonia Phyllocephala (Asteraceae: Astereae)
    Nesom, G.L., D.J. Rosen, and S.K. Lawrence. 2013. Notes on variation and geography in Rayjacksonia phyllocephala (Asteraceae: Astereae). Phytoneuron 2013-53: 1–15. Published 12 August 2013. ISSN 2153 733X NOTES ON VARIATION AND GEOGRAPHY IN RAYJACKSONIA PHYLLOCEPHALA (ASTERACEAE: ASTEREAE) GUY L. NESOM 2925 Hartwood Drive Fort Worth, Texas 76109 [email protected] DAVID J. ROSEN Department of Biology Lee College Baytown, Texas 77522-0818 [email protected] SHIRON K. LAWRENCE Department of Biology Lee College Baytown, Texas 77522-0818 ABSTRACT Inflorescences of Rayjacksonia phyllocephala in the disjunct Florida population system are characterized by heads on peduncles with leaves mostly reduced to linear bracts; heads in inflorescences of the Mexico-Texas-Louisiana system are immediately subtended by relatively unreduced leaves. The difference is consistent and justifies recognition of the Florida system as R. phyllocephala var. megacephala (Nash) D.B. Ward. Scattered waifs between the two systems are identified here as one or the other variety, directly implying their area of origin. In the eastern range of var. phyllocephala , at least from Brazoria County, Texas, eastward about 300 miles to central Louisiana, leaf margins vary from entire to deeply toothed-spinulose. In contrast, margins are invariably toothed-spinulose in var. megacephala as well as in the rest of southeastern Texas (from Brazoria County southwest) into Tamaulipas, Mexico. In some of the populations with variable leaf margins, 70-95% of the individuals have entire to mostly entire margins. KEY WORDS : Rayjacksonia , morphological variation, leaf margins, disjunction, waifs Rayjacksonia phyllocephala (DC.) Hartman & Lane (Gulf Coast camphor-daisy) is an abundant and conspicuous species of the shore vegetation around the Gulf of Mexico.

    SMITHSONIAN CONTRIBUTIONS TO BOTANY 0 NCTMBER 52 Chromosome Numbers in Compositae, XII: Heliantheae Harold Robinson, A. Michael Powell, Robert M. King, andJames F. Weedin SMITHSONIAN INSTITUTION PRESS City of Washington 1981 ABSTRACT Robinson, Harold, A. Michael Powell, Robert M. King, and James F. Weedin. Chromosome Numbers in Compositae, XII: Heliantheae. Smithsonian Contri- butions to Botany, number 52, 28 pages, 3 tables, 1981.-Chromosome reports are provided for 145 populations, including first reports for 33 species and three genera, Garcilassa, Riencourtia, and Helianthopsis. Chromosome numbers are arranged according to Robinson’s recently broadened concept of the Heliantheae, with citations for 212 of the ca. 265 genera and 32 of the 35 subtribes. Diverse elements, including the Ambrosieae, typical Heliantheae, most Helenieae, the Tegeteae, and genera such as Arnica from the Senecioneae, are seen to share a specialized cytological history involving polyploid ancestry. The authors disagree with one another regarding the point at which such polyploidy occurred and on whether subtribes lacking higher numbers, such as the Galinsoginae, share the polyploid ancestry. Numerous examples of aneuploid decrease, secondary polyploidy, and some secondary aneuploid decreases are cited. The Marshalliinae are considered remote from other subtribes and close to the Inuleae. Evidence from related tribes favors an ultimate base of X = 10 for the Heliantheae and at least the subfamily As teroideae.

  • Red Ring Disease of Coconut Palms Is Caused by the Red Ring Nematode (Bursaphelenchus Cocophilus), Though This Nematode May Also Be Known As the Coconut Palm Nematode
    1 Red ring disease of coconut palms is caused by the red ring nematode (Bursaphelenchus cocophilus), though this nematode may also be known as the coconut palm nematode. This disease was first described on coconut palms in 1905 in Trinidad and the association between the disease and the nematode was reported in 1919. The vector of the nematode is the South American palm weevil (Rhynchophorus palmarum), both adults and larvae. The nematode parasitizes the weevil which then transmits the nematode as it moves from tree to tree. Though the weevil may visit many different tree species, the nematode only infects members of the Palmae family.

    CIR1047 Transplanting Palms in the Landscape1 Timothy K. Broschat2 Palms, when compared to similar-sized broadleaf trees, are Understanding how palm roots grow and respond to being relatively easy to transplant into the landscape. Many of the cut can greatly improve the chances of success when trans- problems encountered when transplanting broadleaf trees, planting palms. In addition, other factors—such as rootball such as wrapping roots, are never a problem in palms due size, leaf removal and tying, physiological age of the palm, to their different root morphology and architecture. While transplanting season, and planting depth—can also have a broadleaf trees typically have only a few large primary roots significant impact on the success of palm transplants. The originating from the base of the trunk, palm root systems purpose of this document is to discuss how these and other are entirely adventitious. In palms, large numbers of roots factors contribute to palm transplant survival rate. of a relatively small diameter are continually being initiated from a region at the base of the trunk, a region called the Transplanting Container-Grown root-initiation zone (Figure 1). And while the roots of broadleaf trees continually increase in diameter, palm roots Palms into the Landscape remain the same diameter as when they first emerged from Container-grown plants often have roots that wrap around the root-initiation zone. the inside of the container. In broadleaf trees, these large, wrapping roots must be cut prior to transplanting, or root distribution patterns and tree stability will be permanently affected. With container-grown palms, however, there is no need to cut such wrapping roots since large numbers of new, adventitious roots arising from the root initiation zone will initially supplement and will ultimately replace those early roots that were confined to the container.
