RCI was asked to verify and augment (if necessary) the Vegetation and Wildlife sections of the 1995 Bluffs Environmental Impact Report (EIR) for inclusion in the Initial Study for the Project. The Town requested site-specific analyses to: 1) Review and determine the applicability and conformance with the impact analysis and mitigation measures specified in the 1995 Bluffs EIR, and 2) Conduct additional site reconnaissance of the VTPM/UPA Project Site (approx 4.3 acres) as well as the two additional parcels (labeled LLA 08-001 Parcels 1 and 2) and the Parcel A, as shown on the attached Sheet 1. On September 8, 2010 two RCI Biologists completed an inspection and site assessment of the VTPM/UPA Project Area and reconnaissance of the 1995 Bluffs EIR Project Area.

    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.

  • Identification of Plant Species for Crop Pollinator Habitat Enhancement in the Northern Prairies

    Identification of Plant Species for Crop Pollinator Habitat Enhancement in the Northern Prairies

    Journal of Pollination Ecology, 14(21), 2014, pp 218-234 IDENTIFICATION OF PLANT SPECIES FOR CROP POLLINATOR HABITAT ENHANCEMENT IN THE NORTHERN PRAIRIES Diana B. Robson* The Manitoba Museum, 190 Rupert Avenue, Winnipeg, MB Canada R3B 0N2 Abstract—Wild pollinators have a positive impact on the productivity of insect-pollinated crops. Consequently, landowners are being encouraged to maintain and grow wildflower patches to provide habitat for important pollinators. Research on plant-pollinator interaction matrices indicates that a small number of “core” plants provide a disproportionately high amount of pollen and nectar to insects. This matrix data can be used to help design wildflower plantings that provide optimal resources for desirable pollinators. Existing interaction matrices from three tall grass prairie preserves in the northern prairies were used to identify core plant species that are visited by wild pollinators of a common insect-pollinated crop, namely canola (Brassica napus L.). The wildflower preferences of each insect taxon were determined using quantitative insect visitation and floral abundance data. Phenology data were used to calculate the degree of floral synchrony between the wildflowers and canola. Using this information I ranked the 41 wildflowers that share insect visitors with canola according to how useful they are for providing pollinators with forage before and after canola flowers. The top five species were smooth blue aster (Symphyotrichum laeve (L.) A. & D. Löve), stiff goldenrod (Solidago rigida L.), wild bergamot (Monarda fistulosa L.), purple prairie-clover (Dalea purpurea Vent.) and Lindley’s aster (Symphyotrichum ciliolatum (Lindl.) A. & D. Löve). By identifying the most important wild insects for crop pollination, and determining when there will be “pollen and nectar gaps”, appropriate plant species can be selected for companion plantings to increase pollinator populations and crop production.
