  • Notes on Florida's Endangered and Threatened Plants 1
    NOTES ON FLORIDA'S ENDANGERED AND THREATENED PLANTS 1 Nancy C. Coile2 The Regulated Plant Index is based on information provided by the Endangered Plant Advisory Council (EPAC), a group of seven individuals who represent academic, industry, and environmental interests (Dr. Loran C. Anderson, Dr. Daniel F. Austin,. Mr. Charles D. D aniel III, Mr. David M . Drylie, Jr., Ms. Eve R. Hannahs, Mr. Richard L. Moyroud, and Dr. Daniel B. Ward). Rule Chap. 5B-40, Florida Administrative Code, contains the "Regulated Plant Index" (5B-40.0055) and lists endangered, threatened, and commercially exploited plant species for Florida; defines the categories; lists instances where permits may be issued; and describes penalties for vio lations. Copies of this Rule may be obtained from Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services, Division of Plant Industry, P. O. Box 147100, Gainesville, Fl 32614-7100. Amended 20 September 2000, the "Regulated Plant Index" contains 415 endangered species, 113 threatened species, and eight commercially exploited species. Descriptions of these rare species are often difficult to locate. Florida does not have a single manual covering the flora of the entire state. Long and Lakela s manual (1971) focuses on the area south of Glades County; Clewell (1985) is a guide for the Panhandle; and Wunderlin (1998) is a guide for the entire state of Florida but lacks descriptions. Small (1933) is an excellent resource, but must be used with great care since the nomenclature is outdated and frequently disputed. Clewell (1985) and Wunderlin (1998 ) are guides with keys to the flora, but lack species descriptions. Distribution maps (Wund erlin and Hansen, 200 0) are available over the Internet through the University of South Florida Herbarium [www.plantatlas.usf.edu/].

  • This Proposed Action Is Located in Winston County, Alabama
    U. S. Forest Service Bankhead National Forest Biological Evaluation of Proposed Salvage of Forestland Damaged by Hurricane Rita – 2006 Winston County, Alabama This proposed action is located in Winston County, Alabama. Contact: Glen D. Gaines District Ranger P. O. Box 278 Double Springs, Alabama 35553 Telephone 205-489-5111 FAX 205-489-3427 E-mail [email protected] Summary: Hurricane Rita came through Bankhead National Forest on September of 2005. Several areas within the Bankhead National Forest received damage from high winds associated with the storm. Stands of hardwood and pine trees were uprooted, broken, blown over and root sprung in the areas covered by this evaluation. The damaged, merchantable timber within these three areas is proposed for removal using a Salvage Timber sale. These areas vary in both cover type and age class but are primarily a mixture of mature pine and hardwoods. The salvage timber sale proposed for implementation under this proposal covers an estimated 97 acres over at least three sites. Sites have been proposed for salvage operations south of Fairview in Winston County (see attached map identified as Figure #1). As with any Forest Service activity, considerations of the potential impacts to environmental resources of this project were evaluated. Some of the protected species of plants and wildlife that could potentially be impacted by these activities include those plant communities found in upland areas, riparian areas, streams and those found on rock outcrops. No incidental take of any federally listed species is expected or anticipated with this proposed action. Proposed salvage sale areas were initially located, then reviewed by biological staff.

Leaves 3 - 8 inches (8 - 20 cm) long and about ¾ inch (2 cm) wide, lance- shaped, alternate, with 3 conspicuous veins; mostly clustered near the base of the plant, decreasing in size and number upward on the stem. Flower heads 1 - 10 per plant, held at tips of branches, each head about 1 inch across, with a whorl of pointed bracts surrounding the underside of the head. Heads with many pale pink or white disk flowers, each with 5 lobes; there are no ray flowers. Fruit about inch (4 mm) long, seed-like, oblong, ribbed, hidden among the sharp-pointed bracts (chaff) of the flower head.
