UTAH FLORA: APIACEAE (UMBELLIFERAE) Sherel Goodrich' Abstract— Eighty-four taxa in 30 genera of the parsley family, Apiaceae (Umbelliferae) are treated for Utah. Four of the genera with one species each that escape from cultivation are included in the key but not in the text. Keys to genera, species and infraspecific taxa are provided, along with detailed descriptions, distributional data, and pertinent comments. Proposed new taxa are Cymopteriis acaulis (Pursh) Raf var. parvus Goodrich and Lomatiiun scabrum (Coult. & Rose) Mathias var. tripinnatus Goodrich. New combinations include: Cymopteriis acaulis (Pursh) Raf. \ar. fendleri (Gray) Goodrich and var. higginsii (Welsh) Goodrich; Cymopteriis purpureus Wats. var. jonesii (Coult. & Rose) Goodrich and var. rosei (Jones) Goodrich; Cymopteriis terebinthinus (Hook.)

  • 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. Basal Angiosperms (ANITA grade) Amborellales Amborellaceae, sole family, the earliest branch of flowering plants, a shrub native to New Caledonia – Amborella Nymphaeales Hydatellaceae – aquatics from Australasia, previously classified as a grass Cabombaceae (water shield – Brasenia, fanwort – Cabomba) Nymphaeaceae (water lilies – Nymphaea; pond lilies – Nuphar) Austrobaileyales Schisandraceae (wild sarsaparilla, star vine – Schisandra; Japanese

  • Sensitive Plant Species
    SENSITIVE PLANT SPECIES Barneby Woody Aster (Aster kingii var. barnebyana) Barneby’s woody aster is a member of the sunflower family (Asteraceae) and it grows from a well-developed taproot. There are persistent blackish or dark brown, old leaf bases at the base of the plant. The stems are short (3-12 cm long) and the herbage is covered with glandular hairs. The leaves are basal, 0.8-12 cm long, and oblanceolate to spatulate in shape with 1-10 pronounced teeth. Flowers occur in clusters of 1-5, standing 8-11 mm high. The inner bracts are often purplish and at least the outer tips are bent backward. The ray flowers are white, often fading to pale pink. This plant flowers between August and September. This species is found in mountain mahogany and oak communities on rock outcrops composed of Precambian quartzite. This endemic species of the Canyon Mountains in Millard and Juab Counties, Utah has been reported in 15 element occurrence records as of 2002 (Madsen 2002). These scattered occurrences indicate a total population of 600+ plants. The range of elevation is between 7,500 and 9640. Major associated species are Holodiscus dumosus (Mountain spray), Huechera rubescens (Red alumroot), Symphoricarpos oreophilus (Mountain snowberry), Quercus gambelii (Gambel’s oak), and Eriogonum brevicaule (Shortstem buckwheat) (Franklin 1990). To date there are 15 known occurrences of this species on the Fillmore Ranger District of the Fishlake National Forest (Franklin 1990). Plants are harbored from threats such as livestock grazing by their occurrence on steep rock outcrops. 40 Bicknell milkvetch (Astragalus consobrinus) The Bicknell milkvetch is a member of the pea family (Fabaceae).

  • Major Lineages Within Apiaceae Subfamily Apioideae: a Comparison of Chloroplast Restriction Site and Dna Sequence Data1
    American Journal of Botany 86(7): 1014±1026. 1999. MAJOR LINEAGES WITHIN APIACEAE SUBFAMILY APIOIDEAE: A COMPARISON OF CHLOROPLAST RESTRICTION SITE AND DNA SEQUENCE DATA1 GREGORY M. PLUNKETT2 AND STEPHEN R. DOWNIE Department of Plant Biology, University of Illinois, Urbana, Illinois 61801 Traditional sources of taxonomic characters in the large and taxonomically complex subfamily Apioideae (Apiaceae) have been confounding and no classi®cation system of the subfamily has been widely accepted. A restriction site analysis of the chloroplast genome from 78 representatives of Apioideae and related groups provided a data matrix of 990 variable characters (750 of which were potentially parsimony-informative). A comparison of these data to that of three recent DNA sequencing studies of Apioideae (based on ITS, rpoCl intron, and matK sequences) shows that the restriction site analysis provides 2.6± 3.6 times more variable characters for a comparable group of taxa. Moreover, levels of divergence appear to be well suited to studies at the subfamilial and tribal levels of Apiaceae. Cladistic and phenetic analyses of the restriction site data yielded trees that are visually congruent to those derived from the other recent molecular studies. On the basis of these comparisons, six lineages and one paraphyletic grade are provisionally recognized as informal groups. These groups can serve as the starting point for future, more intensive studies of the subfamily. Key words: Apiaceae; Apioideae; chloroplast genome; restriction site analysis; Umbelliferae. Apioideae are the largest and best-known subfamily of tem, and biochemical characters exhibit similarly con- Apiaceae (5 Umbelliferae) and include many familiar ed- founding parallelisms (e.g., Bell, 1971; Harborne, 1971; ible plants (e.g., carrot, parsnips, parsley, celery, fennel, Nielsen, 1971).

It occurs in all the Canadian provinces excepting Newfoundland and Labrador, and Alberta. Plants Database provides a distributional map of goutweed. Globally, goutweed occurs primarily in the northern hemisphere, particularly in Europe, Asia Minor ([28,36,58,92], reviews by [14,27]), and Russia (review by [27,63]). Goutweed's native distribution is unclear. It may have been introduced in England (review by [2]) and is considered a "weed" in the former Soviet Union, Germany, Finland (Holm 1979 cited in [14]), and Poland [44].
