    Ashmolean Natural History Society of Oxfordshire Rare Plants Group 2009 Newsletter Birthwort, Aristolochia clematitis Photo: Charles Hayward www.oxfordrareplants.org.uk INTRODUCTION It was such a relief not to have a desperately wet summer in 2009 as the last two were, and what a joy when Creeping Marshwort came popping up in sheets on Port Meadow after an absence of 18 months. Photo 1(left): 1 June 2009. Port Meadow showing the flood-water retreating and mud flats exposed. Photo: Camilla Lambrick Photo 2 (right): 1 June 2009. Southern part of Port Meadow, a former Creeping Marshwort area, now drying mud. Graham Scholey of the Environment Agency and Rebecca Tibbetts of Natural England assess the situation. Photo: Camilla Lambrick Alas Fen Violet is still in trouble at Otmoor – perhaps not dry and warm early enough for this very early species. The Fen Violet exercised us most during 2009 by way of a meeting with specialists from Plantlife and Northern Ireland, in a nation-wide discussion of radical actions notably for introduction on RSPB land. True Fox-sedge looks to be well set-up for the future now that extensive introductions by BBOWT have proved successful. Other plants seem to get on well by themselves – Birthwort (see front cover picture and report on page 4) seems to be proliferating in the ditches of a medieval nunnery just north of Oxford city. Progress continues towards the Oxfordshire Rare Plants Register; photographs are being amassed, and thanks to Ellen Lee’s masterly command of the records we now have some 4000 new records beginning to take form as eye-catching maps.

  • (2008) Morphometric and Population Genetic Analyses
    Botanical Journal of the Linnean Society, 2008, 157, 687–711. With 11 figures Morphometric and population genetic analyses elucidate the origin, evolutionary significance and conservation implications of Orchis ¥angusticruris (O. purpurea ¥ O. simia), a hybrid orchid new to Britain RICHARD M. BATEMAN*, RHIAN J. SMITH and MICHAEL F. FAY Jodrell Laboratory, Royal Botanic Gardens Kew, Richmond, Surrey TW9 3DS, UK Received 16 January 2008; accepted for publication 17 March 2008 We report the first confirmed occurrence in Britain of Orchis ¥ angusticruris Franch. ex Rouy, a hybrid between two closely related orchid species of anthropomorphic Orchis (O. purpurea Huds. ¥ O. simia Lam.) that hybridize frequently in Continental Europe. Seven individual hybrids, most likely F1 plants representing a single interspe- cific pollination event, first flowered with both parents in May 2006 at a nature reserve in the Chiltern Hills near Goring, Oxfordshire. Univariate and multivariate morphometric analyses (43 characters plus 12 indices), internal transcribed spacer sequencing, plastid microsatellites and amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) analyses together readily separate the parents and confirm that O. purpurea was the ovule parent and O. simia the pollen parent, presumably reflecting the greater frequency and/or later flowering period of the latter at the site. This study reinforces a more general observation that, in most orchids, the ovule parent contributes substantially more to the hybrid phenotype than does the pollen parent, perhaps reflecting cytoplasmic inheritance. In contrast, the hybrids are placed closer to O. simia than to O. purpurea in the AFLP tree. Apparently recent arrivals, the few O. purpurea plants at Goring contrast genetically with the two other small populations of this species known in the Chilterns, but rather are consistent with relatively uncommon Continental populations.

  • Lowland Calcareous Grassland
    CALCAREOUS GRASSLAND IN OXFORDSHIRE 1. INTRODUCTION Calcareous grasslands are developed on shallow lime-rich soils generally overlying limestone rocks, including chalk. They are now largely found on distinct topographic features such as escarpments or dry valley slopes and sometimes on ancient earthworks in landscapes strongly influenced by the underlying limestone geology. They are typically species-rich, agriculturally unimproved grasslands, managed as UK Biodiversity Action Plan - Priority components of pastoral or mixed farming systems, species associated with farmland supporting sheep, cattle or sometimes horses; a few examples are cut for hay. It is one of the UK’s most Grey partridge important wildlife habitats, supporting a wide range of Lapwing specialised plants and animals including many rare Skylark species. In Oxfordshire these grasslands support the bulk Stone curlew of the UK populations of meadow clary, Chiltern gentian Turtle dove and downy woundwort. Some species, such as the marsh Chalk carpet moth fritillary butterfly and dormouse, have very small Four spotted moth populations and are vulnerable to extinction in Square spotted clay moth Oxfordshire.

    MikeOxon by MikeOxon, 10-Mar-14 12:18 AM GMT Although I have been contributing to the forums for a while, I have not previously started a personal diary, mainly because I have my own website and this seemed enough. I'm finding now that posting yet more photos of well-known butterflies has a declining appeal and so I have decided to try the diary format, to see how a new 'butterfly year' pans out. I always find this time of year amazing - one moment it's Winter - cold, gloomy, damp days and early nights - and then, seemingly so suddenly, the evenings are lighter and the sun appears again. Of course, there is still plenty of time for spells of really cold weather but, nevertheless, the mood is definitely upbeat! Last year, I was fortunate to see and photograph, in early March, five species at one of my local reserves - Dry Sandford Pit, near the village of Cothill between Oxford and Abingdon. It is one of a small cluster of reserves, which share an unusual alkaline fen habitat that produces a range of interesting flora and fauna. See http://www.bbowt.org.uk/reserves/dry-sandford-pit for more info. Dry Sandford Pit - the open fen So, with the onset of warm, sunny weather, I made my first trip of the year to Dry Sandford this afternoon (9th March). At first, it seemed very quiet and I scanned the warm-coloured sandstone quarry face in vain but, early in the afternoon, a coolish breeze dropped and suddenly, there were Peacocks ad Brimstones basking on the warm stones or patrolling the length of the low clif.

These are areas East that share similar landscape characteristics, and which follow natural lines in the landscape rather than administrative boundaries, making them a good decision- Yorkshire making framework for the natural environment. & The North Humber NCA profiles are guidance documents which can help communities to inform their West decision-making about the places that they live in and care for. The information they contain will support the planning of conservation initiatives at a landscape East scale, inform the delivery of Nature Improvement Areas and encourage broader Midlands partnership working through Local Nature Partnerships. The profiles will also help West Midlands to inform choices about how land is managed and can change. East of England Each profile includes a description of the natural and cultural features that shape our landscapes, how the landscape has changed over time, the current key London drivers for ongoing change, and a broad analysis of each area’s characteristics and ecosystem services. Statements of Environmental Opportunity (SEOs) are South East suggested, which draw on this integrated information. The SEOs offer guidance South West on the critical issues, which could help to achieve sustainable growth and a more secure environmental future.

The Core Strategy will set out the approach to development in South Oxfordshire for the period to 2027. In assessing the impacts of its policies the council has also considered the potential for in combination impacts arising from its policies combined with those arising from the plans and policies of other authorities. ii 1 Introduction 1.1 The purpose of an Appropriate Assessment (AA) is to assess the impacts of a land use plan against the conservation objectives of a European site. The assessment must determine whether the plan would alone, or in combination with other plans and projects adversely affect the integrity of the site in terms of its nature conservation objectives. Where negative effects are identified other options should be examined to avoid any potential damaging effects.

    Butterfly Conservation Upper Thames Branch Butterfly Sightings Archive - January to December 2012 ~ Wednesday 26th December 2012 ~ Ian Elphick sent the following report on Saturday 23rd December: "Had a text message from my daughter in Bracknell, Berks asking if butterflies should be flying at this time of year. On questioning, she described a Red Admiral she had just seen flying across the road outside her house." ~ Tuesday 4th December 2012 ~ Richard O'Dare reported the following: "I was at Little Marlow gravel pit (Bucks) today, 4th December, and this Peacock was enjoying the sunshine. Hopefully it will find somewhere to shelter from the cold nights." Peacock Photo © Richard O'Dare ~ Tuesday 19th November 2012 ~ Dave Wilton reported the following: "Our first organised Brown Hairstreak egg hunt of the season went off successfully on Sunday 18th November at Slade Camp, Shotover on the east side of Oxford. The ten participants found 25 eggs, numbers having almost returned to "normal" for the site after last winter's very low count of just 9 eggs. An early-instar Drinker Moth caterpillar was also seen, having crawled out of the grass (its foodplant) to hibernate on a blackthorn stem - they are encountered quite regularly while looking for Brown Hairstreak eggs. Our next egg hunt will be on Shotover Plain this coming Friday morning, 23rd November (see link above)." Dave Maunder sent the following sighting: "Last Wednesday, 14th November, I saw a male Brimstone fly past me while cycling to work along the A41 Aston Clinton road (Bucks) in the morning sun." ~ Wednesday 14th November 2012 ~ Chris Griffiths reported the following: "I thought you might be interested to know that I saw a Brimstone in my garden in west Reading, Berks at 12.15 this afternoon (14th November)." Dave Ferguson reports seeing a Red Admiral flying around his garden in Beaconsfield, Bucks yesterday, 13th November.
