THfc H H Q p c c Die opizische Periode in der floristischen Erforschung Bohmens. Unter den Botanikern Bohmens nimmt Philipp Maximilian Opiz eine der ersten Ehrenstellen ein. Durch seinen Sammeleifer, durch seine literarische Thatigkeit, vor allem aber durch die Griindung des botanischen Tauschvereines, des ersten nicht nur in Osterreich und Deutschland, sondern der ganzen Welt, erwarb sich Opiz um die Er¬ forschung der Flora Bohmens unsterbliche Verdienste. Ihn, den Forst- beamten von Beruf, konnen wir mit Becht das geistige Centrum der Botaniker Bohmens aus der ersten Halfte des 19. Jahrhunderts nennen. Seine Vorlaufer waren F. W. Schmidt und J. E. Pohl. Schmidt machte den ersten Versuch, eine Landesflora Bohmens zusammenzustel- len. Seine Flora blieb aber unvollendet gleichwie die seines Nachfolgers Pohl. Franz Wilibald Schmidt (geb. am 7. Juli 1764 in Plan, gest. am 2. Feber 1796 in Prag*), auBerordentlicher Professor der Botanik an der philosophischen Facultat in Prag, gab seine „Flora Boemica inchoata exhibens plantarum regni Bohemiae indigenarum species" in den Jahren 1793 bis 1794 in Prag bei Anton Hladky heraus. Es erschienen jedoch nur vier Centurien, die funfte Centurie wurde nach dem friihzeitigen Tode des Verfassers handschriftlich hinterlassen. Zu den beiden ersten Centurien lieferte er auch zwei Handzeichnungen, die urspninglich im Besitze seines Gonners, des Grafen Malabaila von Canal, waren, des Griinders der Prager Lehrkanzel fiir okonomisch-technische Botanik, spater aber in den Besitz der k. k. Universitatsbibliothek in Prag iiber- giengen. *) Schmidt, ein Sohn des Malers und Burgers Andreas Schmidt zu Plan, hieG nach giitiger Mittheilung des Herrn Consistorialrathes Jos. Schmid in Plan mit dem Taufnamen Franz Josef. Wilibald war sein Firmname. Schmidt studierte in Tepl und war gleich seinem Vater ein geschickter Maler. — 6 — Johann Emanuel Pohl (geb. am 22. Feber 1782 in Bohm.-Kamnitz, gest. am 22. Mai 1834 zu Schonbrunn), ein intimer Freund Opiz's, schrieb sein „Tentamen Florae Bohemiae, Versuch einer Flora Bohmens" in den Jahren 1809 bis 1814. Die Flora gedieh nur bis zur XIII. Linn. Classe. Was Schmidts Flora anbelangt, schreibt Pohl in der Vorrede seines Tentamen, so findet man beim Durchlesen derselben oft einfache Ab- arten, die Schmidt im jugendlichen Eifer gleich bei der geringsten, kaum merklichen Abweichung zur Art erhob; die Angaben der Pflanzenstand- orte sind nicht immer die sichersten, „indem er eine Menge seltener Pflanzen in seine Flora, ohne sie irgendwo gefunden zu haben, aufnahm und ihnen einen Ort in den entlegensten, ausgedehntesten Gegenden Bohmens, des Riesen- und Isergebirges, Bohmerwaldes u. s. w. zuwies." Pohls Werk, das 1809 und 1814 in zwei Abtheilungen erschien (L—V. Linn. Cl. und YI. XIII. Linn. 01.), gibt eine Fiille, wenn auch nicht immer sicherer Standorte an. Pohl beniitzte bereits zahlreiche locale Angaben von Pflanzenvorkommnissen, deren er in der Einleitung erwahnt; so Angaben von Gf. v. Berchtold, Gf. v. Sternberg und von Opiz. Beitrage lieferten ihm auch Pfarrer Gottlieb in Georgswalde, G. Klinger und J. Swoboda in Karlsbad; Sieber lieferte ihm Beitrage aus dem siidlichen Bohmen, Preiss aus Kuttenberg. Die kauflichen Exsiccatenwerke der damaligen Zeit umfassen nicht blob phanerogame Pflanzen, sondern auch kryptogame, wie das 1812 von J. und C. Presl unter dem Titel „Vegetabilia cryptogamica Boemiae collecta a Joanne et Carolo Presl, Pragae 1812" erschienene Werk und wie die „Flora cryptogamica Boemiae" von Opiz. Doch bereits im Jahre 1836 waren diese beiden Werke kauflich nicht mehr zu erhalten. Das erstere Werk umfasst zwei Fascikel und enthalt Kryptogamen aus alien Classen. Die Pflanzen sind fortlaufend numeriert, jedoch ohne Angabe des Fundortes. Opiz's Exsiccatenwerk erschien 1818. Schon zwei Jahre zuvor war seine Abhandlung „Deutschlands kryptogamische Gewachse nach ihren natiirlichen Standorten geordnet" erschienen. Uber diese beiden Exsiccatenwerke vgl. Matouschek. ..Die zwei altesten bryo- logischen Exsiccatenwerke ans Bubmcn" in: Verb, der k. k. zool.-bot. Gesellsch., Wien E. Bd. 1900, p. 276—286. In den Jahren 1813 und 1814 wurden vielfach Stimmen laut, ein allgemeines Herbar anzuiegen, welches die Gesammtflora Bohmens um¬ fassen mochte. Vielfach war man auch bestrebt, einen botanischen Ver- ein zu griinden, an dessen Spitze Graf v. Sternberg stehen sollte. Die in den verschiedenen Gegenden Bohmens wohnenden Botaniker — 7 — wurden aufgefordert, die „ihnen gelegentlich aufstofienden besonderen oder gemeinen Gewachse zu sammeln, zu trocknen und durch Einsen- dung derselben zur GriinduDg einer Sammlung bohmisclier Pflanzenpro- ducte beizutragen." (Hesperus, IV. Jg. 1813, S. 237.) Es wurden genaue Instruetionen gegeben, wie die Pflanzen zu pressen seien; es wurde verlangt, dass Wohn- und Standort der Pflanzen genau angegeben werde; unbestimmte Pflanzen konnen doppelt einge- schickt werden, wobei die riickzusendende mit dem zugehorigen Namen versehen wird; auch konnten dem Einsender zur Entschadigung andere Pflanzen wie z. B. alpine oder exotische geschickt werden. Besonders ergieng die Aufforderung, zur Errichtung eines vaterlandischen Herbars beizutragen, an die Botaniker der Grenzgebirge Bohmens. Johann Prokop Hartmann Graf v. Klarstein, Generaladministrator der k. k. Kammeralgiiter, lieB durch die Forster aller k. k. Kammeral- und Religionsfondgiiter die in ihren Bezirken wachsenden Pflanzen sam¬ meln und ein okonomisch-teehnisches Herbar Bohmens anlegen. Graf Sternberg spricht sich iiber dasselbe iiberaus lobend aus. Besonders verdient machten sich um dieses Herbar der Forster Kriz in Schatzlar und der Forster Finger in Zbirow. Im Jahre 1814 erliefi auch die k. k. mahr.-schles. Gesellschaft des Aokerbaues, der Natur- und Landeskunde in Briinn einen Aufruf, ein Herbar zu griinden. welches die Flora Mahrens und Schlesiens enthalten soil. Auch F. W. Sieber unterzog sich 1813 der Aufgabe, in Bohmen wildwachsende Pflanzen in drei besonderen Abtheilungen, okonomischer, Forst- und Medicinalgewachse, unter dem Namen „Flora Boemica" um einen billigen Preis herauszugeben. Das 1818 gegriindete bohm. Landesmuseum verdankt den Grund- stock seines Herbars der 9000 Pflanzenarten umfassenden Sammlung des Grafen Caspar von Sternberg. Eine kaufliche Pflanzensammlung gaben ferner im J. 1822 Koste- letzky, Mann, Moschner und Seidl heraus. Sie erschien unter dem Namen „Okonomisch-technische Flora Bohmens" in 7 Fascikeln. Von botanischen Werken moge hier die 1819 von Joh. und Karl Pre si verfasste Flora <5echica genannt werden, welche 1498 Phanero- gamenarten nach Linneischem System behandelt. Sie enthalt Beitrage von Graf v. Sternberg, Opiz, Tausch, Nenning u. a. W. B.

  • Tropical Flower Garden at Fairchild Might Just Look Like a Colorful Place with Textures and Scents Made to Please Its Visitors
    The Colors of the Tropical Flowering Garden Text and photos by Jason Lopez, Manager, Rainforest and Horticultural Exhibits t first glance, the Tropical Flower Garden at Fairchild might just look like a colorful place with textures and scents made to please its visitors. While this is true, it is not the whole truth. Mixed in among the plants are wild-collected plants from all over Athe world, developed by nature herself. Some are plants that botanists and horticulturists suffer dislocated shoulders and poison ivy rashes to find. Sure, you could say that all plants are developed by nature, but you would be amazed how much control a nurseryman has with some time and space. Wild-collected plants serve as a window to what is actually growing in the world’s natural areas. In Plot 50, you will find Cubanola daphnoides , a wonderful plant endemic to Cuba that grows in the sub-montane forests of the Holguin Province. Glossy leaves shimmer in the sunlight and the large, creamy- white pendant flowers hang in abundance. Most people think that they are looking at Angel’s Trumpet Trees from the tomato family which are in Plot 50 as well, but they are actually enjoying one of the many coffee relatives. A few feet away grows Brunfelsia densifolia . As the name suggests, the foliage is very dense on this Ceiba pentandra on the lawn at the Visitor Center. Brunfelsia densifolia upright shrub. At first glance they appear to be Podocarpus , commonly used as screening or a hedge, but they certainly are not. There are times throughout the year when B.

  • Appendix Color Plates of Solanales Species
    Appendix Color Plates of Solanales Species The first half of the color plates (Plates 1–8) shows a selection of phytochemically prominent solanaceous species, the second half (Plates 9–16) a selection of convol- vulaceous counterparts. The scientific name of the species in bold (for authorities see text and tables) may be followed (in brackets) by a frequently used though invalid synonym and/or a common name if existent. The next information refers to the habitus, origin/natural distribution, and – if applicable – cultivation. If more than one photograph is shown for a certain species there will be explanations for each of them. Finally, section numbers of the phytochemical Chapters 3–8 are given, where the respective species are discussed. The individually combined occurrence of sec- ondary metabolites from different structural classes characterizes every species. However, it has to be remembered that a small number of citations does not neces- sarily indicate a poorer secondary metabolism in a respective species compared with others; this may just be due to less studies being carried out. Solanaceae Plate 1a Anthocercis littorea (yellow tailflower): erect or rarely sprawling shrub (to 3 m); W- and SW-Australia; Sects. 3.1 / 3.4 Plate 1b, c Atropa belladonna (deadly nightshade): erect herbaceous perennial plant (to 1.5 m); Europe to central Asia (naturalized: N-USA; cultivated as a medicinal plant); b fruiting twig; c flowers, unripe (green) and ripe (black) berries; Sects. 3.1 / 3.3.2 / 3.4 / 3.5 / 6.5.2 / 7.5.1 / 7.7.2 / 7.7.4.3 Plate 1d Brugmansia versicolor (angel’s trumpet): shrub or small tree (to 5 m); tropical parts of Ecuador west of the Andes (cultivated as an ornamental in tropical and subtropical regions); Sect.

  • Outline of Angiosperm Phylogeny
    Outline of angiosperm phylogeny: orders, families, and representative genera with emphasis on Oregon native plants Priscilla Spears December 2013 The following listing gives an introduction to the phylogenetic classification of the flowering plants that has emerged in recent decades, and which is based on nucleic acid sequences as well as morphological and developmental data. This listing emphasizes temperate families of the Northern Hemisphere and is meant as an overview with examples of Oregon native plants. It includes many exotic genera that are grown in Oregon as ornamentals plus other plants of interest worldwide. The genera that are Oregon natives are printed in a blue font. Genera that are exotics are shown in black, however genera in blue may also contain non-native species. Names separated by a slash are alternatives or else the nomenclature is in flux. When several genera have the same common name, the names are separated by commas. The order of the family names is from the linear listing of families in the APG III report. For further information, see the references on the last page.

  • Aquatic Vascular Plant Species Distribution Maps
    Appendix 11.5.1: Aquatic Vascular Plant Species Distribution Maps These distribution maps are for 116 aquatic vascular macrophyte species (Table 1). Aquatic designation follows habitat descriptions in Haines and Vining (1998), and includes submergent, floating and some emergent species. See Appendix 11.4 for list of species. Also included in Appendix 11.4 is the number of HUC-10 watersheds from which each taxon has been recorded, and the county-level distributions. Data are from nine sources, as compiled in the MABP database (plus a few additional records derived from ancilliary information contained in reports from two fisheries surveys in the Upper St. John basin organized by The Nature Conservancy). With the exception of the University of Maine herbarium records, most locations represent point samples (coordinates were provided in data sources or derived by MABP from site descriptions in data sources). The herbarium data are identified only to township. In the species distribution maps, town-level records are indicated by center-points (centroids).

Dumort. Alternate Names stick-tights, beggar-ticks, stickseed, sheepbur, European sticktight, bur forget-me-not, European stick- weed Synonyms Lappula echinata Gilib., Lappula myosotis Moench Description Bluebur is an annual plant that is pro- fusely branched with stems up to 2 feet tall. The entire plant is covered with stiff, white hairs and has a mousy odor. The hairs usually lie flat against the stems and leaves. Leaves are alternate, 3/4 to 4 inches long, and covered with stiff white hairs on both surfaces. The lower leaves are oblong, Mrkvicka by Alexander Photo stalked, and blunt-tipped, whereas the upper leaves are stalkless. Flowers are blue with a yellow throat, resembling forget- me-not flowers but smaller, about 1/8 of an inch across. They appear near the ends of stems in leafy clusters. Each flower pro- duces 4 small nuts with 2 rows of hooked prickles that have star-shaped tips. Fruit stalks are straight and erect. Similar Species Western bluebur (L. occidentalis (S. Wats.) Greene) is a weedy annual plant, native to Alaska, that can be distin- guished from bluebur by its nuts. Western bluebur nuts have 1 row of hooked prickles, while the exotic bluebur nuts have 2 rows. Stick-seed (Hackelia floribunda (Lehm.) I.M. Johnson) is native to British Columbia and resembles Family: Boraginaceae Bluebur both bluebur species, but the fruiting stalk of stick-seed is curved or bent downwards.

  • WETLAND PLANTS – Full Species List (English) RECORDING FORM
    WETLAND PLANTS – full species list (English) RECORDING FORM Surveyor Name(s) Pond name Date e.g. John Smith (if known) Square: 4 fig grid reference Pond: 8 fig grid ref e.g. SP1243 (see your map) e.g. SP 1235 4325 (see your map) METHOD: wetland plants (full species list) survey Survey a single Focal Pond in each 1km square Aim: To assess pond quality and conservation value using plants, by recording all wetland plant species present within the pond’s outer boundary. How: Identify the outer boundary of the pond. This is the ‘line’ marking the pond’s highest yearly water levels (usually in early spring). It will probably not be the current water level of the pond, but should be evident from the extent of wetland vegetation (for example a ring of rushes growing at the pond’s outer edge), or other clues such as water-line marks on tree trunks or stones. Within the outer boundary, search all the dry and shallow areas of the pond that are accessible. Survey deeper areas with a net or grapnel hook. Record wetland plants found by crossing through the names on this sheet. You don’t need to record terrestrial species. For each species record its approximate abundance as a percentage of the pond’s surface area. Where few plants are present, record as ‘<1%’. If you are not completely confident in your species identification put’?’ by the species name. If you are really unsure put ‘??’.
