Hundreds of plant species known from the United States are found only in Florida south of Lake Okeechobee. Many of these species occur on various Caribbean islands and elsewhere in the Neotropics. This report treats those taxa endemic to South Florida, occurring in peninsular Florida southbf Lake Okeechobee and/or on the Florida Keys, and found nowhere else.

  • Rare Vascular Plant Taxa Associated with the Longleaf Pine Ecosystems: Patterns in Taxonomy and Ecology
    Rare Vascular Plant Taxa Associated with the Longleaf Pine Ecosystems: Patterns in Taxonomy and Ecology Joan Walker U.S.D.A. Forest Service, Southeastern Forest Experiment Station, Department of Forest Resources, Clemson University, Clemson, SC 29634 ABSTRACT Ecological, taxonomic and biogeographical characteristics are used to describe the group of 187 rare vascular plant taxa associated with longleaf pine (Pinus palustris) throughout its range. Taxonomic and growth form distributions mirror the patterns of common plus rare taxa in the flora. Most of the species have rather narrow habitat preferences, and narrow geo­ graphic ranges, but a few rare sp~cies with broad habitat tolerances and wider geographic ranges are identified. Ninety-six local endemics are associated with longleaf pine ecosystems. This incidence is as high as in other comparably-sized endemic-rich areas in North America. A distinct geographic trend in rare species composition is indicated. Species fall into 4 groups: Florida longleaf associates, south Atlantic coastal plain, east Gulf coastal plain, and west Gulf coastal plain species. Distributional factors that produce rarity must be considered in the development of conser­ vation strategies. Overall, conserving longleaf communities rangewide will protect .large ~ numbers of rare plant taxa in Southeastern United States. INTRODUCTION 1986), and inevitably the strategies required to con­ serve them will differ.

  • Unraveling the Biogeographical History of Chrysobalanaceae from Plastid Genomes1
    RESEARCH ARTICLE AMERICAN JOURNAL OF BOTANY Unraveling the biogeographical history of Chrysobalanaceae from plastid genomes1 Léa Bardon 2 , Cynthia Sothers 3 , Ghillean T. Prance 3 , Pierre-Jean G. Malé 4 , Zhenxiang Xi 5 , Charles C. Davis 5 , Jerome Murienne 2 , Roosevelt García-Villacorta 6 , Eric Coissac 7 , Sébastien Lavergne 7 , and Jérôme Chave 2,8 PREMISE OF THE STUDY: The complex geological and climatic history of the Neotropics has had major implications on the diversifi cation of plant lineages. Chrysobalanaceae is a pantropical family of trees and shrubs with 75% of its 531 species found in the Neotropics, and a time-calibrated phylogeny of this family should shed light on the tempo of diversifi cation in the Neotropical fl ora. Previously published phylogenetic hypotheses of this family were poorly supported, and its biogeography remains unclear. METHODS: We assembled the complete plastid genome of 51 Chrysobalanaceae species, and increased taxon sampling by Sanger-sequencing of fi ve plastid regions for an additional 88 species. We generated a time-calibrated tree including all 139 Chrsyobalanaceae species and 23 outgroups. We then conducted an ancestral area reconstruction analysis and estimated diversifi cation rates in the family. KEY RESULTS: The tree generated with the plastid genome alignment was almost fully resolved. It supports the polyphyly of Licania and Hirtella . The family has diversifi ed starting around the Eocene-Oligocene transition. An ancestral area reconstruction confi rms a Paleotropical origin for Chrysobalanaceae with several transoceanic dispersal events. The main Neotropical clade likely resulted from a single migration event from Africa around 28 mya ago, which subsequently underwent rapid diversifi cation.

  • Draft Biological Evaluation Columbia County and Plum Creek Land
    United States Department of Agriculture Forest Service Draft Biological Evaluation for the Columbia County and Plum Creek Land Exchange U.S. Forest Service National Forests in Florida Baker, Columbia and Union Counties, Florida Prepared by: Jason Drake, Ecologist, National Forests in Florida [email protected], 850-523-8560 and Jeff Gainey, Wildlife Program Manager, National Forests in Florida [email protected], 850-523-8553 June 2014 National Forests in Florida Columbia Co. and Plum Creek Land Exchange I. Introduction This Biological Evaluation (BE) summarizes and documents the process and makes determinations regarding the effects on the Regional Forester’s Sensitive Species (RFSS) of the Osceola National Forest for management activities as proposed within the Columbia County and Plum Creek Land Exchange (CCPLE) Project. The proposed project would convey a 6.3 acre right-of-way easement on the Osceola NF (“Rail Spur Area”) to Columbia county for construction of a rail spur connecting to the adjacent RACEC Catalyst Project site in exchange for a 6.3 acre permanent easement for the Florida National Scenic Trail along the western perimeter of Plum Creek’s land (“FNST Area”). The affected areas are shown on the maps in Sections II and III of this document. A complete description of the proposed action is in the Environmental Assessment for this project, available with supporting document on the project website (http://goo.gl/aID2s4). All U.S. Forest Service planned, funded, executed, and or permitted programs and activities require a biological evaluation (BE) as outlined in Forest Manual (FSM) Section 2672.41. A separate Biological Assessment documenting the effects of the proposed exchange on species listed under the Endangered Species Act was prepared for consultation with the U.S.

  • Florida Scrub Is a Plant Community Easily Recognized
    Florida Scrub Including Scrubby Flatwoods and Scrubby High Pine lorida scrub is a plant community easily recognized FNAI Global Rank: G2/G3 by the dominance of evergreen shrubs and frequent FNAI State Rank: S2 Fpatches of bare, white sand. With more than two Federally Listed Species in S. FL: 32 dozen threatened and endangered species dependent upon scrub, the entire community is itself endangered. Recovery State Listed Species in S. FL: 100 of the community and its associated plants and animals will depend upon land acquisition and effective land Florida scrub. Original photograph courtesy of The management. Nature Conservancy. Synonymy Florida scrub in its various phases has been called xeric scrub, sand scrub, big scrub, sand pine scrub, oak scrub, evergreen oak scrub, dune oak scrub, evergreen scrub forest, slash pine scrub, palmetto scrub, rosemary scrub, and rosemary bald. Florida scrubs may be classified as coastal or interior. Scrubs are often named by the dominant plant species, as in rosemary scrub, sand pine scrub, palmetto scrub, or oak scrub. Some authors have confused closed-canopy forests of sand pine trees with scrub. Scrubs that are very recent in origin, usually a result of mans activities, are called pioneer scrubs. Communities intermediate between scrub and pine flatwoods have been called dry or xeric flatwoods but now are referred to as scrubby flatwoods. Communities intermediate between scrub and high pine have been called southern ridge sandhills, hickory scrub, yellow sand scrub, turkey oak scrub, turkey oak barrens, and natural turkey oak barrens, but probably are best referred to as scrubby high pine.
