Coffee!! Photo by Robert Pickett “Ethiopia – Plants, History, and Cultures” • • Gary James • • Gary James has been interested in succulent In recent years he has been traveling to succulent-rich plants for many years – both his grandmother and his parts of the world to observe plants in habitat. Seeing parents had large succulent gardens. Growing up in South them growing in their natural areas gives an observer a Pasadena allowed him to spend many days visiting the better idea of how to care for the plants in one’s Huntington Botanic Gardens – back when admission was collection. free! In 2000 he organized a tour of Ethiopia for a group of friends. They traveled all over the country and observed a number of wonderful plant habitats. Ethiopia is a fascinating country with a long history of having never been colonized by a European power. The country includes many interesting tribes in the Omo River Valley, intriguing monuments in the north, and unusual Christian churches in the Lalibela area. Theirs is a rich Moslem culture as well. The talk will be a general introduction to the variety of cultures, tribes, historic monuments, as well as a look at many of the unusual plants that are found throughout the country. vvvvvvvv Board Meeting • Plant Sales • Brag Plants • Exchange Table REFRESHMENTS Lorie Johansen Martha Hansen • • • YOUR NAME HERE! • • • Please think about bringing something to share – it makes the day more fun!

Evaluating the Monophyly and Biogeography of Cryptantha (Boraginaceae)
Systematic Botany (2018), 43(1): pp. 53–76 © Copyright 2018 by the American Society of Plant Taxonomists DOI 10.1600/036364418X696978 Date of publication April 18, 2018 Evaluating the Monophyly and Biogeography of Cryptantha (Boraginaceae) Makenzie E. Mabry1,2 and Michael G. Simpson1 1Department of Biology, San Diego State University, San Diego, California 92182, U. S. A. 2Current address: Division of Biological Sciences and Bond Life Sciences Center, University of Missouri, Columbia, Missouri 65211, U. S. A. Authors for correspondence ([email protected]; [email protected]) Abstract—Cryptantha, an herbaceous plant genus of the Boraginaceae, subtribe Amsinckiinae, has an American amphitropical disjunct distri- bution, found in western North America and western South America, but not in the intervening tropics. In a previous study, Cryptantha was found to be polyphyletic and was split into five genera, including a weakly supported, potentially non-monophyletic Cryptantha s. s. In this and subsequent studies of the Amsinckiinae, interrelationships within Cryptantha were generally not strongly supported and sample size was generally low. Here we analyze a greatly increased sampling of Cryptantha taxa using high-throughput, genome skimming data, in which we obtained the complete ribosomal cistron, the nearly complete chloroplast genome, and twenty-three mitochondrial genes. Our analyses have allowed for inference of clades within this complex with strong support. The occurrence of a non-monophyletic Cryptantha is confirmed, with three major clades obtained, termed here the Johnstonella/Albidae clade, the Maritimae clade, and a large Cryptantha core clade, each strongly supported as monophyletic. From these phylogenomic analyses, we assess the classification, character evolution, and phylogeographic history that elucidates the current amphitropical distribution of the group. -

Site Locations and Description
April 29, 2019 11719 Amy Newby Director, Parks & Recreation City of San Carlos 600 Elm Street San Carlos, California 94070 Subject: Biological Resources Constraints Assessment for the City of San Carlos Fuel Management Project, San Carlos, San Mateo County, California Dear Ms. Newby: At the request of the City of San Carlos, Dudek conducted a biological constraints assessment for the proposed Fuel Management Project (project) that includes four distinct public parks in the City of San Carlos, San Mateo County, California: Big Canyon Park, Crestview Park, Eaton Park, and Highlands Park (Figures 1 and 2). The currently proposed project would entail a series of vegetation management activities that will abate hazardous vegetation in the four city parks. These parks are largely undeveloped with walking trails that intersect the landscape. Specific goals of the vegetation management project include the following: (1) conduct targeted fuel reduction treatments using hand crews, masticators, track chippers, herbicides, and herbivory to reduce highly combustible underbrush and chaparral within the defensible space zone of adjacent private ownerships, (2) create strategic fuel breaks using hand crews, masticators, track chippers, and herbivory to reduce highly combustible underbrush and chaparral along access roads and ridgelines, and (3) remove dead/diseased and non-native trees as part of a comprehensive fuel reduction effort. As part of the assessment, a reconnaissance-level field survey was conducted to identify and characterize existing biological conditions within the project site including the nature and extent of both common and sensitive natural vegetation communities, wetlands and other aquatic features potentially under the jurisdiction of state and federal resource agencies, and the potential for special-status plant and animal species to occur. -
Boraginaceae), with an Emphasis on the Popcornflowers (Plagiobothrys)
Diversification, biogeography, and classification of Amsinckiinae (Boraginaceae), with an emphasis on the popcornflowers (Plagiobothrys) By Christopher Matthew Guilliams A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Integrative Biology in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Bruce G. Baldwin, Chair Professor David Ackerly Professor Brent Mishler Professor Patrick O'Grady Summer 2015 Abstract Diversification, biogeography, and classification of Amsinckiinae (Boraginaceae), with an emphasis on the popcornflowers (Plagiobothrys) by Christopher Matthew Guilliams Doctor of Philosophy in Integrative Biology University of California, Berkeley Professor Bruce G. Baldwin, Chair Amsinckiinae is a diverse and ecologically important subtribe of annual herbaceous or perennial suffrutescent taxa with centers of distribution in western North America and southern South America. Taxa in the subtribe occur in all major ecosystems in California and more broadly in western North America, from the deserts of Baja California in the south where Johnstonella and Pectocarya are common, north to the ephemeral wetland ecosystems of the California Floristic Province where a majority of Plagiobothrys sect. Allocarya taxa occur, and east to the Basin and Range Province of western North America, where Cryptantha sensu stricto (s.s.) and Oreocarya are well represented. The subtribe minimally includes 9 genera: Amsinckia, Cryptantha s.s., Eremocarya, Greeneocharis, Harpagonella, Johnstonella, Oreocarya, Pectocarya, and Plagiobothrys; overall minimum-rank taxonomic diversity in the subtribe is ca. 330-342 taxa, with ca. 245--257 taxa occurring in North America, 86 in South America, and 4 in Australia. Despite their prevalence on the landscape and a history of active botanical research for well over a century, considerable research needs remain in Amsinckiinae, especially in one of the two largest genera, Plagiobothrys.
