Special thanks Karen Rosenbeck, Karen Finch THE SMALL NATURE TRAIL CINDY JENKINS BCBC TEACHES 4-H; CREW of MASTER GARDENERS at WORK Butterflies & Native Plants for Wildlife. The butterfly garden spot was conceived in July when the Broward County Extension Director Lorna and Julio, Education, Training Specialist wished to improve the existing gardens. This spot was chosen because the nature trail was already in place. It was a native plant teaching post of Dr. Mike Orfanedes under his wisdom and guidance. So the garden initiated by Pat, now has butterfly host plants, examples of scrub habitat & FL Keys fauna, certainly perfect for teaching 4-H or Master Gardeners what home gardens could look like; a way to conserve water. Also it will teach what types of butterflies, insects and birds may visit. Monarchs, Queens, Atalas, bees, have already stopped by. ‘The Small Nature Trail’ demo garden was used November as a 4-H event. People to thank: Lorna Bravo, UF/IFAS Broward County Extension, Amy Reilly, Master Gardener Coordinator, Sandy Fernandes, Cindy Jenkins, Amy Snyder of BCBC, Terri Bitter-Ward, Broward Parks, other master gardeners who helped. P. 2 BROWARD COUNTY BUTTERFLY CHAPTER The Swallowtail That Dazzles The Eastern Tiger Swallowtail was one of the butterflies seen in the Apalachicola Forest, on the many field trips organized in September by NABA at the members meeting expose`to the alluring Apalachicola woods replete with wildflowers. All just perhaps ten miles from Tallahassee. The Giant, Black and Palamedes swallowtails flittered about. All of them so large, couldn’t help staring. The host plants of the Eastern Tiger are listed perhaps further north as Sweetbay, Basswood, Tulip tree, Birch, Ash or Cottonwood (entnemdept.ufl.edu). However in South Florida counties, the host plants include Red Ma- ple, Acer rubrum and Red Bay, Persea borbonia.(Checklist for South Florida Butterflies). The forked appearance of the swallowtails' hindwings, which can be seen when the butterfly is resting with its wings spread, is responsible for the com- mon name swallowtail. Adults are yellow with four black bands on the front wings. The innermost band connects with the median band of the hind wing. The wing margins are black with a row of yellow spots. Some females are black with a marginal row of yellow spots. In many areas of the North, most females are black. Faint remnants of the typical tiger banding pattern are visible on the undersides of the front wings of the black form. The hind wings of the black form are powdery blue above with a wavy black band dividing the powdery blue areas. Interestingly, dark females are prone to produce dark daughters while yellow females usually have yellow mothers. Dark females have a better chance of surviving long enough to lay eggs than yellow females. The reason why is that dark females look much like the poisonous pipevine swallowtail. The pipevine swallowtail has an extremely bitter taste. If a bird or other predator tries to eat one, it rarely goes back for seconds or even any butterfly that looks like it. (GA Dept. of Natural Sciences), Newly laid eggs are green but soon turn greenish-yellow. Young larvae are dark and resemble bird droppings. Older larvae are green with a swollen thorax and a transverse band of faint blue dots on each abdominal segment. There is a black transverse stripe edged with yellow anteriorly between the first and second abdominal segments. Larvae also have a single pair of false eyespots on the metathorax, derived from the thorax, a part of the caterpillar body where the legs are attached. (entnemdept.ufl.edu); Wiki. They are a special sight when male butterflies ‘puddle’ and cats deceive predators to resemble white, brown droppings, or do defensive acid secretions if bothered. All this to survive;emerge into a large flickering beauty! Eastern Tiger Swallowtail Yellow Eastern Tiger Swallowtail, Dark Female, Female, GardenwithWings.com http://www.nhptv.org/ P. 3 .

  • Natural Forest Community Delineation Methods
    Natural Forest Community Delineation Methods Keith A. Bradley and George D. Gann February 2, 2005 The Institute for Regional Conservation 22601 S.W. 152 Avenue; Miami, Florida 33170 George D. Gann, Executive Director Introduction The Natural Forest Community (NFC) system was established in 1984 under ordinance 89-9, Chapter 24-60 of the Miami-Dade County Code. The ordinance provides legal protection for sites designated by the county as NFCs: “Natural Forest Community shall mean all stands of trees (including their associated understory) which were designated as Natural Forest Communities on the Dade County Natural Forest Community Maps and approved by the Board of County Commissioners, pursuant to Resolution No. R-1764-84.” Factors for reviewing proposed Natural Forest Community sites in the original ordinance included: 1) Presence of endangered, threatened, rare, or endemic species (plants or animals); 2) Plant species diversity on the site; 3) Size of trees; 4) Size of site; 5) Wildlife habitat value; 6) Geological features; and 7) Percentage of site covered by non-native plant species. As required by the ordinance, quantitative evaluation criteria were developed by DERM incorporating the above factors, including separate criteria for the delineation of hardwood hammocks and pinelands. These criteria have become outdated as more scientifically rigorous criteria for delineating natural areas have been developed since 1984, primarily relating to delineation of wetland habitats. Some of the methods used to delineate NFCs by DERM proved to be ineffective including the establishment of transects to measure plant species cover and diversity on each site. As specified in section 151 of the ordinance, evaluation criteria may be revised occasionally.
