  • "National List of Vascular Plant Species That Occur in Wetlands: 1996 National Summary."
    Intro 1996 National List of Vascular Plant Species That Occur in Wetlands The Fish and Wildlife Service has prepared a National List of Vascular Plant Species That Occur in Wetlands: 1996 National Summary (1996 National List). The 1996 National List is a draft revision of the National List of Plant Species That Occur in Wetlands: 1988 National Summary (Reed 1988) (1988 National List). The 1996 National List is provided to encourage additional public review and comments on the draft regional wetland indicator assignments. The 1996 National List reflects a significant amount of new information that has become available since 1988 on the wetland affinity of vascular plants. This new information has resulted from the extensive use of the 1988 National List in the field by individuals involved in wetland and other resource inventories, wetland identification and delineation, and wetland research. Interim Regional Interagency Review Panel (Regional Panel) changes in indicator status as well as additions and deletions to the 1988 National List were documented in Regional supplements. The National List was originally developed as an appendix to the Classification of Wetlands and Deepwater Habitats of the United States (Cowardin et al.1979) to aid in the consistent application of this classification system for wetlands in the field.. The 1996 National List also was developed to aid in determining the presence of hydrophytic vegetation in the Clean Water Act Section 404 wetland regulatory program and in the implementation of the swampbuster provisions of the Food Security Act. While not required by law or regulation, the Fish and Wildlife Service is making the 1996 National List available for review and comment.

  • Atlas of Rare Endemic Vascular Plants of the Arctic
    Atlas of Rare Endemic Vascular Plants of the Arctic Technical Report No. 3 About CAFF Theprogram for the Conservation of Arctic Flora and Fauna (CAFF) of the Arctic Council was established lo address the special needs of Arctic ecosystems, species and thcir habitats in the rapid ly developing Arctic region. Itwas initiated as one of'four programs of the Arctic Environmental Protcction Strategy (AEPS) which was adopted by Canada, Denmark/Greenland, Finland, lceland, Norway, Russia, Swcdcn and the United States through a Ministeria! Declaration at Rovaniemi, Finland in 1991. Other programs initi­ ated under the AEPS and overlaken hy the Are.tie Council are the ArcticMonitoring and assessment Programme (AMAP), the program for Emergency Prevention, Preparcd­ ness and Response (EPPR) and the program for Protection of the Arctic Marine Envi­ ronment (PAME). Sinceits inaugural mccti.ng in Ottawa, Canada in 1992, the CAFF program has provided scientists, conscrvation managers and groups, and indigenous people of the north with a distinct forum in which lo tackle a wide range of Arctic conservation issues at the cir­ cumpolar level. CAFF's main goals, which are achieved in keeping with the concepts of sustainable developrnertt and utilisation, are: • to conserve Arctic Jlora and fauna, thcir diversity and thcir habitats; • to protect the Arctic ecosystems from threats; • to improve conservation management laws, reg ulations and practices for the Arclic; • to integrale Arctic interests into global conservation fora. CAFF operates rhrough a system of Designated Agencies and National Representatives responsible for CAFF in thcir rcspcctivc countries. CAFF also has an International Work­ ing Group wh.ith has met annually to assess progrcss and to develop Annual WorkPlans.

  • Systematic Studies of Parasenecio (Asteraceae-Senecioneae) I
    J. Jpn. Bot. 90: 92–97 (2015) Systematic Studies of Parasenecio (Asteraceae-Senecioneae) I. Parasenecio katoanus, a New Species from Yamagata Prefecture, Northern Honshu, Japan Yuichi KADOTA Department of Botany, National Museum of Nature and Science, 4–1–1, Amakubo, Tsukuba, 305-0005 JAPAN E-mail: [email protected] (Accepted on November 1, 2014) A new species of Parasenecio (Asteraceae-Senecioneae), P. katoanus Kadota, is described from the Shônai region, Yamagata Pref., northern Honshu, Japan. Parasenecio katoanus is distinguished from P. nikomontanus (Matsum.) H. Koyama by having 1) triangular-pentagonal, somewhat fleshy, dimly lustrous, usually glabrous leaf blades, 2) longer involucres with acute involucral phyllaries, 3) longer achenes, and 4) ascending peduncles at an acute angle. It was found that the flowers were fragrant in the midst of flowering time. Parasenecio katoanus is hitherto known only from the Shônai area of Yamagata Pref. Key words: Asteraceae, Japan, new species, Parasenecio katoanus, the Shônai region, Yamagata Prefecture. This is the first part of a series of systematic blades and is commonly distributed on the studies of the genus Parasenecio (Asteraceae- Japan Sea side of Honshu Island ranging from Senecioneae). The genus consists of more Akita Pref. to Shimane Pref. (Koyama 1995, than 60 species (Chen 1999). It shows an East Kadota unpubl.). The Japanese vernacular name Asian and Eastern North American disjunct ‘Ô-kani-kômori’ is derived from the shape of distribution pattern and its considerable number leaf blades, of which ‘Kani’ means the shape of of species are recognized in the Sino-Japanese crab carapace. floristic region (Koyama 1983, Chen 1999, Parasenecio nikomontanus also occurs Kadota 2009).

Used by permission. 7 Population biology of intraspecific polyploidy In grasses KATHLEEN H. KEELER Polyploidy is the duplication of an entire nuclear genome, whether diploid or higher level (Stebbins, 1971; Thompson & Lumaret, 1992) and a fre­ quent occurrence in plants. Stebbins (1971) estimated that 30-35% of flow­ ering plant species are polyploid, and that many more had a polyploid event in their evolutionary history, including all members of such important fam­ ilies as the Magnoliaceae, Salicaceae, and Ericaceae. Goldblatt (1980) esti­ mated 55%, but probably up to 75%, of monocotyledons had at least one polyploid event in their history, using the criterion that if the species has a base number higher than n=13 it is derived from a polyploid.

  • Literature Cited
    Literature Cited Robert W. Kiger, Editor This is a consolidated list of all works cited in volume 8, whether as selected references, in text, or in nomenclatural contexts. In citations of articles, both here and in the taxonomic treat- ments, and also in nomenclatural citations, the titles of serials are rendered in the forms recom- mended in G. D. R. Bridson and E. R. Smith (1991). When those forms are abbreviated, as most are, cross references to the corresponding full serial titles are interpolated here alphabetically by abbreviated form. In nomenclatural citations (only), book titles are rendered in the abbreviated forms recommended in F. A. Stafleu and R. S. Cowan (1976–1988) and F. A. Stafleu et al. (1992– 2009). Here, those abbreviated forms are indicated parenthetically following the full citations of the corresponding works, and cross references to the full citations are interpolated in the list alpha- betically by abbreviated form. Two or more works published in the same year by the same author or group of coauthors will be distinguished uniquely and consistently throughout all volumes of Flora of North America by lower-case letters (b, c, d, ...) suffixed to the date for the second and subsequent works in the set. The suffixes are assigned in order of editorial encounter and do not reflect chronological sequence of publication. The first work by any particular author or group from any given year carries the implicit date suffix “a”; thus, the sequence of explicit suffixes begins with “b”. There may be citations in this list that have dates suffixed “b” but that are not preceded by citations of “[a]” works for the same year, or that have dates suffixed “c,” “d,” or “e” but that are not preceded by citations of “[a],” “b,” “c,” and/or “d” works for that year.
