BIOLOGICAL RESOURCES The parks in the Study Area are home to a wide range of biological habitats and species. This EIR section (1) describes the setting section for biological resources within the Study Area, (2) evaluates the potential impacts to biological resources related to implementation of the Wildfire Hazard Reduction and Resource Management Plan (the proposed project), and recommends appropriate mitigation measures where necessary. The reader should note that this section focuses on biological resources and conditions that are particularly relevant to the issue of wildfire hazard reduction. In the following developed shoreline parks, wildfire hazards are very low and fuel modification activities are not expected to be undertaken: Point Isabel; Middle Harbor Shoreline Park; Robert W. Crown Memorial State Beach; and Martin Luther King Jr. Regional Shoreline. Vegetation in these shoreline parks is confined to irrigated landscaping, coastal strand, or coastal salt marsh which do not provide highly combustible fuels nor would they be subject to wildfire conditions.

Our work is focused both in the internal relationships among representatives of Omphalodes main subgroups (and including Omphalodes verna, the type species), and their relationships with other Cynoglosseae genera that have been related to the Omphalodes group. Our phylogenetic analysis of ITS and trnL-trnF molecular markers establish close relationships of the American Omphalodes with the genus Mimophytum, and also with Cynoglossum paniculatum and Myosotidium hortensia. The southwestern European annual Omphalodes species form a discrete group deserving taxonomic recognition. We describe two new genera to reduce the paraphyly in the genus Omphalodes, accommodating the European annual species in Iberodes and Cynoglossum paniculatum in Mapuchea. The pollen of the former taxon is described in detail for the first time.

  • Forget-Me-Not Myosotis

    Forget-Me-Not Myosotis

    Forget-me-not Myosotis If ever a flower represented faithfulness and enduring love it is the dainty forget-me-not. There are many different species known by the same common name, however the water forget-me-not (Myosotis scorpioides) is native to Britain and has clear blue flowers with tiny yellow or white eyes, atop tall hairy stems. The flowers emerge from pale pink buds each spring, and this resilient little plant will keep flowering all through the summer. Forget-me-nots have been symbols of love and constancy since the Middle Ages, and have appeared in many works of art and poetry since that time. They were extremely popular on Victorian Valentine cards as the classic floral messenger, while they also make an appearance in DH Lawrence’s novel Lady Chatterley’s Lover. They are the perfect little flower for creating a meaningful posy. 48 Pomegranate Punica granatum The sweet and juicy pomegranate is surrounded by legend. Their stunning ruby-red flesh made them a powerful symbol of life and abundance. In Greek mythology, the goddess Persephone was kidnapped by Hades, the god of the underworld. Her mother, Demeter, goddess of the harvest, mourned for her and all crops and plants on Earth ceased to grow. Zeus commanded Persephone’s return, but as she had eaten six pomegranate seeds while in the underworld she was condemned to spend several months each year with Hades. This was the Greeks’ explanation for the seasons as the return of Persephone meant the beginning of spring. Today, the pomegranate still has strong symbolism in Greek culture.

    Barrowhill, Otterpool and East Stour River)

    Folkestone and Hythe Birds Tetrad Guide: TR13 D (Barrowhill, Otterpool and East Stour River) The tetrad TR13 D is an area of mostly farmland with several small waterways, of which the East Stour River is the most significant, and there are four small lakes (though none are publically-accessible), the most northerly of which is mostly covered with Phragmites. Other features of interest include a belt of trees running across the northern limit of Lympne Old Airfield (in the extreme south edge of the tetrad), part of Harringe Brooks Wood (which has no public access), the disused (Otterpool) quarry workings and the westernmost extent of Folkestone Racecourse and. The northern half of the tetrad is crossed by the major transport links of the M20 and the railway, whilst the old Ashford Road (A20), runs more or less diagonally across. Looking south-west towards Burnbrae from the railway Whilst there are no sites of particular ornithological significance within the area it is not without interest. A variety of farmland birds breed, including Kestrel, Stock Dove, Sky Lark, Chiffchaff, Blackcap, Lesser Whitethroat, Yellowhammer, and possibly Buzzard, Yellow Wagtail and Meadow Pipit. Two rapidly declining species, Turtle Dove and Spotted Flycatcher, also probably bred during the 2007-11 Bird Atlas. The Phragmites at the most northerly lake support breeding Reed Warbler and Reed Bunting. In winter Fieldfare and Redwing may be found in the fields, whilst the streams have attracted Little Egret, Snipe and, Grey Wagtail, with Siskin and occasionally Lesser Redpoll in the alders along the East Stour River. Corn Bunting may be present if winter stubble is left and Red Kite, Peregrine, Merlin and Waxwing have also occurred.
