NISHANTA RAJAKARUNA Department of Biological Sciences, San Jose´ State University, One Washington Square, San Jose´, CA 95192-0100 e-mail: [email protected] NATHANIEL POPE AND JOSE PEREZ-OROZCO College of the Atlantic, 105 Eden Street, Bar Harbor, ME 04609 TANNER B. HARRIS University of Massachusetts, Fernald Hall, 270 Stockbridge Road, Amherst, MA 01003 ABSTRACT. Plants growing on seabird-nesting islands are uniquely adapted to deal with guano-derived soils high in N and P. Such ornithocoprophilous plants found in isolated, oceanic settings provide useful models for ecological and evolutionary investigations. The current study explored the plants foundon Mount Desert Rock (MDR), a small seabird-nesting, oceanic island 44 km south of Mount Desert Island (MDI), Hancock County, Maine, U.S.A. Twenty-seven species of vascular plants from ten families were recorded. Analyses of guano- derived soils from the rhizosphere of the three most abundant species from bird- 2 nesting sites of MDR showed significantly higher (P , 0.05) NO3 , available P, extractable Cd, Cu, Pb, and Zn, and significantly lower Mn compared to soils from the rhizosphere of conspecifics on non-bird nesting coastal bluffs from nearby MDI. Bio-available Pb was several-fold higher in guano soils than for background levels for Maine. Leaf tissue elemental analyses from conspecifics on and off guano soils showed significant differences with respect to N, Ca, K, Mg, Fe, Mn, Zn, and Pb, although trends were not always consistent.

FLORA from FĂRĂGĂU AREA (MUREŞ COUNTY) AS POTENTIAL SOURCE of MEDICINAL PLANTS Silvia OROIAN1*, Mihaela SĂMĂRGHIŢAN2
ISSN: 2601 – 6141, ISSN-L: 2601 – 6141 Acta Biologica Marisiensis 2018, 1(1): 60-70 ORIGINAL PAPER FLORA FROM FĂRĂGĂU AREA (MUREŞ COUNTY) AS POTENTIAL SOURCE OF MEDICINAL PLANTS Silvia OROIAN1*, Mihaela SĂMĂRGHIŢAN2 1Department of Pharmaceutical Botany, University of Medicine and Pharmacy of Tîrgu Mureş, Romania 2Mureş County Museum, Department of Natural Sciences, Tîrgu Mureş, Romania *Correspondence: Silvia OROIAN [email protected] Received: 2 July 2018; Accepted: 9 July 2018; Published: 15 July 2018 Abstract The aim of this study was to identify a potential source of medicinal plant from Transylvanian Plain. Also, the paper provides information about the hayfields floral richness, a great scientific value for Romania and Europe. The study of the flora was carried out in several stages: 2005-2008, 2013, 2017-2018. In the studied area, 397 taxa were identified, distributed in 82 families with therapeutic potential, represented by 164 medical taxa, 37 of them being in the European Pharmacopoeia 8.5. The study reveals that most plants contain: volatile oils (13.41%), tannins (12.19%), flavonoids (9.75%), mucilages (8.53%) etc. This plants can be used in the treatment of various human disorders: disorders of the digestive system, respiratory system, skin disorders, muscular and skeletal systems, genitourinary system, in gynaecological disorders, cardiovascular, and central nervous sistem disorders. In the study plants protected by law at European and national level were identified: Echium maculatum, Cephalaria radiata, Crambe tataria, Narcissus poeticus ssp. radiiflorus, Salvia nutans, Iris aphylla, Orchis morio, Orchis tridentata, Adonis vernalis, Dictamnus albus, Hammarbya paludosa etc. Keywords: Fărăgău, medicinal plants, human disease, Mureş County 1.

STREAKED ARROWGRASS Triglochin Striatum
TREAKED RROWGRASS H10 © photos G. Sainty & DPI Hamilton S A SALTdeck Series Triglochin striatum HERB 2cm 2mm Sustainable STREAKED ARROWGRASS Grazing on SALTdeck Series Triglochin striatum Saline Land © AWI & CRC Salinity 2006 Family: Juncaginaceae. H10 Description: Erect perennial often less than 30 cm tall, but occasionally to 50 cm. Leaves in tufts on an extensive rhizome. Flowerhead an erect spike to 15 cm long. Flowers green. Fruit round to egg-shaped, 1.5–3 mm long, on a short stalk, spirally arranged on a spike (see photo). Flowers spring to autumn. Key features: Absence of tubers (other species of Triglochin usually with tubers), presence of a sheath and a membranous ligule, and narrow leaves that are cylindrical or flat and strap-like. Value: Palatable to sheep, moderate feed energy value, but recovers slowly from grazing. Remains green during summer where it has access to groundwater. May form large patches but usually part of the salt tolerant mix of plants in saline land. Rhizomatous habit and dense cover reduces the potential for erosion. Salinity and waterlogging tolerance: High tolerance to salt and waterlogging. Notes: Native to all States, North and South America and southern Africa. Useful indicator of salinity. Grows widely along the coast and in Victoria is widespread inland. Thrives in coastal saltmarsh and common in the low marsh inundated zone. Flowers in summer, and produces much seed from which it is easy to propagate. A good pioneer plant. References: Flora of South Australia, Jessop and Toelken (eds), Part 4, 4th edition, 1986.

Site Synopsis
SITE SYNOPSIS Site Name: Inishtrahull SAC Site Code: 000154 This site is situated approximately 12.5 km north-east of Malin Head in Co. Donegal, and comprises the whole of the island of Inishtrahull, as well as a group of islands, the Tor Rocks, which lie approximately 2 km north-north-west of Inishtrahull and the intervening sea. The Tor Rocks, the most northerly point of land in Ireland, comprise six rocky pinnacles rising to approximately 20 m above the High Water Mark, with about eight sub-tidal rocks clustered about them. The island of Inishtrahull (34 ha) rises to 43 m at its western end and extends west-east for some 1.5 km. The geology of the site is of Lewisian gneiss, considered to be the oldest rock in Ireland, and having affinities with the rocks of southern Greenland and some of the Hebridean Islands. The soils found on Inishtrahull are either thin glacial tills or peaty podzols. The site is a Special Area of Conservation (SAC) selected for the following habitats and/or species listed on Annex I / II of the E.U. Habitats Directive (* = priority; numbers in brackets are Natura 2000 codes): [1230] Vegetated Sea Cliffs For most of its length the coastline of Inishtrahull consists of cliffs. These are not particularly high - the highest point of the island being only 43 m at the western end where the cliffs are best developed. The cliffs are generally not sheer, and are indented by deep clefts. Plant species associated with the cliffs include Thrift (Armeria maritima), Rock Sea-spurrey (Spergularia rupicola), Red Fescue (Festuca rubra), Common Scurvygrass (Cochlearia officinalis), Sea Campion (Silene vulgaris subsp.

Smith, Jr. Professor Emeritus of Botany Department of Biological Sciences Humboldt State Univerity Arcata, California 14 September 2018 The Redwood National and State Parks are located in Del Norte and Humboldt counties in coastal northwestern California. The national park was F E R N S established in 1968. In 1994, a cooperative agreement with the California Department of Parks and Recreation added Del Norte Coast, Prairie Creek, Athyriaceae – Lady Fern Family and Jedediah Smith Redwoods state parks to form a single administrative Athyrium filix-femina var. cyclosporum • northwestern lady fern unit. Together they comprise about 133,000 acres (540 km2), including 37 miles of coast line. Almost half of the remaining old growth redwood forests Blechnaceae – Deer Fern Family are protected in these four parks.
