  • Lepidoptera of Albany Hill, Alameda Co., California
    LEPIDOPTERA OF ALBANY HILL, ALAMEDA CO., CALIFORNIA Jerry A. Powell Essig Museum of Entomology University of California, Berkeley and Robert L. Langston Kensington, CA November 1999; edited 2009 The following list summarizes observations of Lepidoptera (moths and butterflies) at Albany Hill, Alameda Co., California, during 1995-1999. Data originate from about 75 daytime and crepuscular visits of 0.5 to 3.5 hrs, in all months of the year. All of the butterfly species and some of the moths were recorded by RLL, most of the moth species and their larval host plants by JAP. A total of 145 species is recorded (30 butterflies, 115 moths), a modest number considering the extent and diversity of the flora. However, many of the potential larval host plants may be present in too small patches to support populations of larger moths or butterflies. Nonetheless, we were surprised that colonies of some of the species survive in a small area that has been surrounded by urban development for many decades, including some rare ones in the East Bay region, as annotated below. Moreover, the inventory is incomplete. A more comprehensive census would be accomplished by trapping moths attracted to ultraviolet lights. In a habitat of this size, however, such survey would attract an unknown proportion of species from surrounding areas. Larval collections are indicated by date-based JAP lot numbers (e.g. 95C37 = 1995, March, 37th collection). Larval foods of most of the other species are documented in other populations. Host plants are recorded at Albany Hill for 75 species (65% of the moths, 52% of the total); the rest were observed as adults only.

  • Invasive Trees of Georgia Pub10-14
    Pub. No. 39 October 2016 Invasive Trees of Georgia by Dr. Kim D. Coder, Professor of Tree Biology & Health Care Warnell School of Forestry & Natural Resources, University of Georgia Georgia has many species of trees. Some are native trees and some have been introduced from outside the state, nation, or continent. Most of Georgia’s trees are well- behaved and easily develop into sustainable shade and street trees. A few tree species have an extrodinary ability to upsurp resources and take over sites from other plants. These trees are called invasive because they effectively invade sites, many times eliminat- ing other species of plants. There are a few tree species native to Georgia which are considered invasive in other parts of the country. These native invasives, may be well-behaved in Georgia, but reproduce and take over sites elsewhere, and so have gained an invasive status from at least one other invasive species list. Table 1. There are hundreds of trees which have been introduced to Georgia landscapes. Some of these exotic / naturalized trees are considered invasive. The selected list of Georgia invasive trees listed here are notorious for growing rampantly and being difficult to eradicate. Table 2.

  • Fall 2013 NARGS
    Rock Garden uar terly � Fall 2013 NARGS to ADVERtISE IN thE QuARtERly CoNtACt [email protected] Let me know what yo think A recent issue of a chapter newsletter had an item entitled “News from NARGS”. There were comments on various issues related to the new NARGS website, not all complimentary, and then it turned to the Quarterly online and raised some points about which I would be very pleased to have your views. “The good news is that all the Quarterlies are online and can easily be dowloaded. The older issues are easy to read except for some rather pale type but this may be the result of scanning. There is amazing information in these older issues. The last three years of the Quarterly are also online but you must be a member to read them. These last issues are on Allen Press’s BrightCopy and I find them harder to read than a pdf file. Also the last issue of the Quarterly has 60 extra pages only available online. Personally I find this objectionable as I prefer all my content in a printed bulletin.” This raises two points: Readability of BrightCopy issues versus PDF issues Do you find the BrightCopy issues as good as the PDF issues? Inclusion of extra material in online editions only. Do you object to having extra material in the online edition which can not be included in the printed edition? Please take a moment to email me with your views Malcolm McGregor <[email protected]> CONTRIBUTORS All illustrations are by the authors of articles unless otherwise stated.

  • Antimicrobial Properties of Traditional Brewing Herbs
    ANTIMICROBIAL PROPERTIES OF TRADITIONAL BREWING HERBS - Ledum palustre, Myrica gale & Humulus lupulus Gordon Virgo Project work in Ethnobiology 15 hp, 2010 Evolutionary Biology Centre (EBC) Supervisor: Hugo J. de Boer ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would like to thank my supervisor Hugo de Boer for encouragement and his excellent input to this project. Thanks to Stallhagen Brewery and Marcus Lindborg for providing material and literature. Also, I would like to thank Stefan Roos at SLU and Marianne Svarvare for guidance and technique. ABSTRACT In this study, three different brewing herbs that have been used through the history are evaluated as inhibitors of common beer spoilage organisms. The three species are Ledum palustre (Marsh Tea), Myrica gale (Bog Myrtle) and Humulus lupulus (Hops). Experimental batches of 10 L were made with all the three herbs and one without any additives. For each herb, two batches were made with different concentration, one batch with 3g/L and the other with 6g/L. All batches were treated the same and fermentation pattern for all of them were similar. Inoculations of four common beer spoilage organisms were practiced in order to examine microbial resistance of the different beers. Antibacterial activity was analyzed by membrane filtration and by measure the optical density during the incubation time. Both Humulus lupulus and Myrica gale showed clear resistance to the three gram-positive bacteria. 1 INTRODUCTION Throughout history, several different plant species have been used as beer additives for flavour and above all as preservatives. Particularly two species, Myrica gale and Humulus lupulus were widely used as beer additives in Europe (Behre 1999).
