Quarterly publication. 73 pp. SPECIAL PLANTS Last updated July, 2013 “Special Plants” is a broad term used to refer to all the plant taxa inventoried by the Department of Fish and Wildlife’s California Natural Diversity Database (CNDDB), regardless of their legal or protection status. Special Plants include vascular plants and high priority bryophytes (mosses, liverworts, and hornworts). A few lichens are also tracked. Special Plant taxa are species, subspecies, or varieties that fall into one or more of the following categories: - Officially listed by California or the Federal Government as Endangered, Threatened, or Rare; - A candidate for state or federal listing as Endangered, Threatened, or Rare; - Taxa which meet the criteria for listing, even if not currently included on any list, as described in Section 15380 of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines; these taxa may indicate “None” under listing status, but note that all CNPS Rank 1 and 2 and some Rank 3 and 4 plants may fall under Section 15380 of CEQA. - A Bureau of Land Management, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, or U.S. Forest Service Sensitive Species; - Taxa listed in the California Native Plant Society’s Inventory of Rare and Endangered Plants of California; - Taxa that are biologically rare, very restricted in distribution, or declining throughout their range but not currently threatened with extirpation; - Population(s) in California that may be peripheral to the major portion of a taxon’s range but are threatened with extirpation in California; and - Taxa closely associated with a habitat that is declining in California at a significant rate (e.g.

Although no new programs were initiated during the year, current ones were pursued vigorously. The youth education program perhaps experienced the greatest growth. For the first time in many years visitor attendance was down, with 55,373 passing the turnstile in 1967 compared with 57, 541 in 1966. This was unfortunate because rainfall was well above average for the year and as a result the grounds were more attractive than they had been at any time since we moved to Clare­ mont in 1951. From an analysis of the weekly attendance figures, it would appear that temperature may be the single most important factor governing visitor attendance. The first three months of the year had temperatures above normal and the number of visitors recorded was well ahead of the previous year. April, May and June, months normally with the largest number of visitors, had average temperatures as much as 7.7° F below normal with periods of heavy rain.
