  • An Analysis of MOFEP Ground Flora
    An Analysis of MOFEP Ground Flora: Pre-treatment Conditions Jennifer K. Grabner, David R. Larsen, and John M. Kabrick1 Abstract.-8imilarities and differences in MOFEP ground flora spe­ cies composition were determined at site, block, and treatment levels. Ground flora data were collected across nine sites on 648 permanent forestry plots; more than 10,300 1-m2 quadrats were sampled each summer from 1991 through 1995. Approximately 530 species were identified; more than half occurred on fewer than 10 percent of the plots. Highly significant differences among sample years were ob­ served for plot richness, but were regarded as a reflection of improved data quality over the course of the project. Though plots averaged relatively high species diversity, wide ranges from low to high species richness and diversity existed within all sites. Analysis of variance on plot diversity and richness indicated a strong trend of differences between even-aged and control sites. Differences in ground flora species composition and abundance, plot richness, and plot diversity appear strongly correlated with pattems in geology, landform, and soils both within and among the MOFEP sites. To practice effective ecosystem management, 1971 and 1976).

Brentwood Blvd. St. Louis, Missouri 63144 [email protected] JUSTIN R. THOMAS Institute of Botanical Training, LLC 111 County Road 3260 Salem, Missouri 65560 [email protected] ABSTRACT An annotated checklist of the 2,961 vascular taxa comprising the flora of Missouri is presented, with conservatism rankings for Floristic Quality Assessment. The list also provides standardized acronyms for each taxon and information on nativity, physiognomy, and wetness ratings. Annotated comments for selected taxa provide taxonomic, floristic, and ecological information, particularly for taxa not recognized in recent treatments of the Missouri flora. Synonymy crosswalks are provided for three references commonly used in Missouri. A discussion of the concept and application of Floristic Quality Assessment is presented. To accurately reflect ecological and taxonomic relationships, new combinations are validated for two distinct taxa, Dichanthelium ashei and D. werneri , and problems in application of infraspecific taxon names within Quercus shumardii are clarified.

Holmberg 530 W Whiskey Creek Rd, Washington, MO 63090 Woods Prairie is a scenic and rare refuge of unplowed native tallgrass prairie on the northwestern fringe of the Ozarks bioregion in southwestern Missouri. This isolated 40-acre prairie remnant near the town of Mt. Vernon was part of a 1,700-acre homestead settled in 1836 by John Blackburn Woods of Tennessee. For four generations, the Woods family carefully managed the prairie while protecting it from the plow as all other nearby prairies were destroyed. By 1999, less than 40 acres of the original vast prairie remained, and John’s great granddaughter, Mary Freda (Woods) O’Connell, sold it to the Ozark Regional Land Trust (ORLT, Carthage, MO), to be protected in perpetuity as a nature reserve for public study and enjoyment. ORLT, a non-profit conservation organization founded in 1984 to protect the unique natural features of the Ozarks, completed the purchase on May 27, 1999 through a unique, complex scheme detailed in Thomas and Galbraith (2003).

Buthod Oklahoma Biological Survey, University of Oklahoma, Norman, OK 73019 A total of 286 taxa of vascular plants in 213 genera and 71 families were collected at a site in the Slick Hills region of Caddo County. The families with the greatest number of spe- cies were Poaceae (47), Asteraceae (43), Fabaceae (16), Cyperaceae (11), and Euphorbiaceae (10). Ninety-three species were annuals, and 193 were perennials. Thirty-six woody plant species were collected. Thirty-two species (11.5% of the flora) were exotic to Oklahoma. Five species tracked by the Oklahoma Natural Heritage Inventory (Argythamnia humilis, Cuscuta umbellata, Dalea frutescens, Echinocereus reichenbachii, and Muhlenbergia bushii) were present. This study reports 64 species previously not documented in Caddo County. © 2006 Oklahoma Academy of Science INTRODUCTION years for plant collecting in Caddo County were 1936 (various collectors, 138 speci- Caddo County is located in southwest mens); 1944 (Milton Hopkins and Aven and Oklahoma.
