"National List of Vascular Plant Species That Occur in Wetlands: 1996 National Summary."
Intro 1996 National List of Vascular Plant Species That Occur in Wetlands The Fish and Wildlife Service has prepared a National List of Vascular Plant Species That Occur in Wetlands: 1996 National Summary (1996 National List). The 1996 National List is a draft revision of the National List of Plant Species That Occur in Wetlands: 1988 National Summary (Reed 1988) (1988 National List). The 1996 National List is provided to encourage additional public review and comments on the draft regional wetland indicator assignments. The 1996 National List reflects a significant amount of new information that has become available since 1988 on the wetland affinity of vascular plants. This new information has resulted from the extensive use of the 1988 National List in the field by individuals involved in wetland and other resource inventories, wetland identification and delineation, and wetland research. Interim Regional Interagency Review Panel (Regional Panel) changes in indicator status as well as additions and deletions to the 1988 National List were documented in Regional supplements. The National List was originally developed as an appendix to the Classification of Wetlands and Deepwater Habitats of the United States (Cowardin et al.1979) to aid in the consistent application of this classification system for wetlands in the field.. The 1996 National List also was developed to aid in determining the presence of hydrophytic vegetation in the Clean Water Act Section 404 wetland regulatory program and in the implementation of the swampbuster provisions of the Food Security Act. While not required by law or regulation, the Fish and Wildlife Service is making the 1996 National List available for review and comment. -

NHESP is responsible for the conservation and protection of hundreds of species that are not hunted, fished, trapped, or commercially harvested in the state. The Program's highest priority is protecting the 176 species of vertebrate and invertebrate animals and 259 species of native plants that are officially listed as Endangered, Threatened or of Special Concern in Massachusetts. Endangered species conservation in Massachusetts depends on you! A major source of funding for the protection of rare and endangered species comes from voluntary donations on state income tax forms. Contributions go to the Natural Heritage & Endangered Species Fund, which provides a portion of the operating budget for the Natural Heritage & Endangered Species Program.

Carex Barrattii Schwein
New England Plant Conservation Program Conservation and Research Plan Carex barrattii Schwein. & Torr. Barratt's Sedge Prepared by: Penelope C. Sharp Environmental Consultant Northford, Connecticut For: New England Wild Flower Society 180 Hemenway Road Framingham, MA 01701 508/877-7630 e-mail: [email protected] • website: www.newfs.org Approved, Regional Advisory Council, May 2001 SUMMARY Barratt’s sedge (Carex barrattii) is a regionally rare plant species that ranges from Alabama northward along the Atlantic coastal states to Connecticut. Primarily a species of the Atlantic Coastal Plain, it has also been documented at a number of disjunct sites in Virginia, Tennessee, North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, and Alabama. Its presence in New England is limited to Connecticut where there are seven occurrences, five of which are historic. The two extant sites for C. barrattii are in relatively close proximity, and the occurrences may be considered to be sub-populations of a single population. Population size is estimated to exceed 10,000 ramets. The state rank for the species is S1, and it is listed under Connecticut’s Endangered Species Act as State Endangered. The occurrence locations are on private property; therefore, C. barrattii is vulnerable to a number of potential threats including alteration of wetland hydrology and development activities. Natural succession and canopy closure also threaten the species, which appears to produce few fruiting culms under dense shade. Carex barrattii is an obligate wetland species and, in Connecticut, grows in seasonally saturated, acidic, sandy wetlands. In other parts of its range, it is found in wetland depressions in pine barrens, along the shores of rivers and ponds or in peaty bogs. -

S. Hitchcock, revised by Agnes Chase (1951). iii PREFACE The first part of our Annotated Checklist, covering the 2001 species of Ferns, Fern Allies, Gymnosperms, and Dicotyledons native or naturalized in the Washington-Baltimore Area, was published in March 2000. Part II covers the Monocotyledons and completes the preliminary edition of the Checklist, which we hope will prove useful not only in itself but also as a first step toward a new manual for the identification of the Area’s flora. Such a manual is needed to replace the long- outdated and out-of-print Flora of the District of Columbia and Vicinity of Hitchcock and Standley, published in 1919. In the preparation of this part, as with Part I, Shetler has been responsible for the taxonomy and nomenclature and Orli for the database. As with the first part, we are distributing this second part in preliminary form, so that it can be used, criticized, and updated while the two parts are being readied for publication as a single volume. -

Box 420 Trenton, NJ 08625-0420 Prepared by: Megan R. King [email protected] June 5, 2019 This report should be cited as follows: King, Megan. 2019. Carex haydenii Rare Plant Profile. New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection, Division of Parks and Forestry, New Jersey Forest Service, Office of Natural Lands Management, New Jersey Natural Heritage Program, Trenton, NJ. 11 pp. Carex haydenii Rare Plant Profile, Page 2 of 11 Introduction Carex haydenii, cloud sedge, is commonly found in open wetland habitats with seasonally flooded or saturated soils, where land use changes have led to its population decline. The species is commonly confused with C. stricta, but can be properly identified by looking for an obovoid perigynia and short stolons (Cusick, 1983). One can also distinguish the two similar-looking sedges by leaf sheath characteristics when inflorescences are not present. In Carex stricta the lower sheaths are red-brown, scabrous, ladder-fibrillose and upper sheath fronts are scabrous, hyaline, tawny or red brown, ladder-fibrillose; whereas Carex haydenii lower sheaths are red-brown, glabrous and upper sheath fronts hyaline, red-brown dotted (Standley, 2011). Life History C. haydenii can be distinguished from other species of the Cyperaceae family by its glanuolus obovoid perigynia, and short stolons. Infraspecific variation occurs in C. haydenii, whether it is seen in its vegetative or floral characteristics (Standley, 1989). -
