ABSTRACT OF THESIS FLORIDA PANTHER AND BLACK BEAR: A ROAD AND URBAN AVOIDANCE/UTILIZATION ANALYSIS AND IMPACTS OF LAND USE AND CLIMATE CHANGE ON LARGE CARNIVORE HABITAT IN FLORIDA Florida is expanding its urban borders into areas of the native habitat. Increased expansion is predicted through the next several decades. Several sections of the state are home to large carnivores, such as Florida panther and black bear, which are important to ecosystem function. Expansion of roads and urban centers will greatly reduce the quality and quantity of carnivore habitat. In this study, I used Euclidean distance analyses and very high frequency (VHF) telemetry points to produce distance categories in which carnivores either have a negative/neutral/positive association with roads and urban centers.

    THE EVOLUTION AND SYSTEMATICS OF THE CALLISIA SECTION CUTHBERTIA COMPLEX (COMMELINACEAE) By IWAN EDUARD MOLGO A DISSERTATION PRESENTED TO THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA 2018 © 2018 Iwan Eduard Molgo To my family, especially to Muriel for her love and support throughout this journey; to Isabella and Callisia, my bundle of joy who kept me going; to my parents who encouraged my education and believed in my dreams ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I thank my advisors Pamela S. Soltis and Douglas E. Soltis who gave me the opportunity to continue my graduate career in their lab. Both have contributed invaluable support, critical guidance, and encouragement throughout my Ph.D. program. They introduced me to my Dissertation project, which turned out to be a great learning experience in molecular and morphological phylogenetics, niche modeling, and cytogeography. I thank my committee members Walter S. Judd and Matthew E. Smith for providing support and advice during project. I am grateful to W. Mark Whitten who has supported me tremendously and taught me different lab techniques in DNA amplification. I thank current and former members of the Soltis and Cellinese lab (Prabha Amarasinghe, Andre Chanderbali, Michael Chester, Kurt Neubig, Ryan Folk, Charlotte Germain-Aubrey, Matthew Gitzendanner, Lucas Majure, Evgeny Mavrodiev, Miao Sun, Clayton Visger), for their help with methodologies and data analyses, the FLAS herbarium (Paul Corogin, Lorena Endara, Kent Perkins, Norris Williams), and the staff of the U.F. Biology Department for their assistance, friendship and encouragement. I thank the following herbaria for access to the information on the voucher specimens of Callisia: GA, USCH, NCU, DUKE, US, AAH, FLAS, FSU, VSC, and USF.
