Beth Shimp and Steve Widowski have been particularly helpful in facilitating these cost share agreements. I would also like to thank the grants and contracts staff of the Illinois Natural History Survey and the University of Illinois, Champaign, for their assistance with logistics necessary to complete these reports. Margaret Wingard has been especially helpful. Several people assisted by contributing information on this rare sedge. Mike Homoya provided information on the plant in Indiana, Tony Reznicek provided several herbarium records and other information, and George Yatskievych provided information on Missouri populations. This material is based upon work supported by the U.S.D.A. Forest Service, Eastern Region, under Cost Share Award No. AG03-CS-11090804-024. Any opinions, findings, and conclusions or recommendations expressed in this publication are those of the author and do not necessarily reflect the views of the U.S.D.A. Forest Service, Eastern Region. ConservationAssessment for the False Hop Sedge (Carex lupuliformis Sartwell ex Dewey) EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This Conservation Assessment is a review of the taxonomy, distribution, habitat, ecology, and status of the False Hop Sedge, Carex lupuliformis Sartwell ex Dewey, throughout the United States and Canada, and in the U.S.D.A. Forest Service lands, Eastern Region (Region 9), in particular. This document also serves to update knowledge about potential threats and conservation efforts regarding this sedge to date. The False Hop Sedge is a tufted, rhizomatous sedge that grows up to 130 cm tall. There is only the typical variety and it has been found in twenty-three to thirty-one states and in two Canadian provinces, from Maine to Minnesota south to Texas and Florida, and in limited adjacent portions of Quebec and Ontario. It grows mainly in seasonally inundated swamp forests. It appears to reproduce normally by seed but it can also propagate by its extensive rhizome system. One of the greatest difficulties in working with this plant is the difficulty with identification, and this has resulted in some confusion as to the exact range and status of the species. Globally, its ranking is G4 or G3G4, indicating uncertainty as to whether the species is globally threatened or apparently secure. Carex lupuliformis has been listed as Endangered in CT, MA, NJ, and WS and as Threatened in MI and OH. This sedge has been designated as either Rare or of Special Concern in IN, IA, and NY. In AR, Carex lupuliformis is tracked and is included on the list of State Species of Special Concern. This sedge is considered to be vulnerable in Illinois, but it is not listed as threatened or endangered nor is it tracked in the state. Carex lupuliformis has been included on the Regional Forester Sensitive Species list (RFSS) for the Eastern Region (Region 9) in the Shawnee National Forest (IL) and the Finger Lakes National Forest (NY). It has not been included on the RFSS list for the Hoosier National Forest, where it has not been found. It is considered at risk in these forests because of its scarcity in the Midwest. It is known from several southern national forests. In addition to species listed as endangered or threatened under the Endangered Species Act (ESA), or species of Concern by U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, the Forest Service lists species that are Sensitive within each region (RFSS). The National Forest Management Act and U.S. Forest Service policy require that National Forest System land be managed to maintain viable populations of all native plant and animal species. A viable population is one that has the estimated numbers and distribution of reproductive individuals to ensure the continued existence of the entity throughout its range within a given planning area. The objectives of this document are to: -Provide an overview of the current scientific knowledge on this species. -Provide a summary of the distribution and status on the species range-wide and within the Eastern Region of the Forest Service, in particular. -Provide the available background information needed to prepare a subsequent Conservation Approach.

    Natural Heritage Squarrose Sedge & Endangered Species Carex squarrosa L. Program www.mass.gov/nhesp State Status: Threatened Federal Status: None Massachusetts Division of Fisheries & Wildlife GENERAL DESCRIPTION: Squarrose Sedge is a perennial, herbaceous, grass-like plant that grows in loose clumps up to 3 feet (0.9 m) in height. This species was recently rediscovered in Massachusetts. Squarrose Sedge is typically found within riparian habitats that have alluvial soils. The uppermost spikes are pistillate (ovule-bearing) flowers borne above staminate (pollen- bearing) flowers. The large, dense, reproductive spikes of Squarrose Sedge make this species rather distinctive from other members of the genus Carex. AIDS TO IDENTIFICATION: To positively identify the Squarrose Sedge and other members of the genus Carex, a technical manual should be consulted. Species in this genus have small unisexual wind-pollinated flowers that are borne in clusters or spikes. Each flower Photo by Brett Trowbridge is unisexual, and is closely subtended by small, flat scales. The staminate flowers are subtended by a single perigynium. The morphological characteristics of these flat scale (the staminate scale); the pistillate flowers are reproductive structures are important in identifying subtended by one flat scale (the pistillate scale) and are plants of the genus Carex. enclosed by a second sac-like modified scale, the perigynium (plural: perigynia). After flowering, the Squarrose Sedge is a large sedge that grows in tufts from achene (a dry, one-seeded fruit) develops within the short rhizomes. Its stout, leafy stems range in height from 1 to 3 ft. (0.3 to 0.9 m). The elongate leaves are 3 to 6 mm (1/8 to ¼ in.) in width.

  • "National List of Vascular Plant Species That Occur in Wetlands: 1996 National Summary."
    Intro 1996 National List of Vascular Plant Species That Occur in Wetlands The Fish and Wildlife Service has prepared a National List of Vascular Plant Species That Occur in Wetlands: 1996 National Summary (1996 National List). The 1996 National List is a draft revision of the National List of Plant Species That Occur in Wetlands: 1988 National Summary (Reed 1988) (1988 National List). The 1996 National List is provided to encourage additional public review and comments on the draft regional wetland indicator assignments. The 1996 National List reflects a significant amount of new information that has become available since 1988 on the wetland affinity of vascular plants. This new information has resulted from the extensive use of the 1988 National List in the field by individuals involved in wetland and other resource inventories, wetland identification and delineation, and wetland research. Interim Regional Interagency Review Panel (Regional Panel) changes in indicator status as well as additions and deletions to the 1988 National List were documented in Regional supplements. The National List was originally developed as an appendix to the Classification of Wetlands and Deepwater Habitats of the United States (Cowardin et al.1979) to aid in the consistent application of this classification system for wetlands in the field.. The 1996 National List also was developed to aid in determining the presence of hydrophytic vegetation in the Clean Water Act Section 404 wetland regulatory program and in the implementation of the swampbuster provisions of the Food Security Act. While not required by law or regulation, the Fish and Wildlife Service is making the 1996 National List available for review and comment.

  • A List of Grasses and Grasslike Plants of the Oak Openings, Lucas County
    A LIST OF THE GRASSES AND GRASSLIKE PLANTS OF THE OAK OPENINGS, LUCAS COUNTY, OHIO1 NATHAN WILLIAM EASTERLY Department of Biology, Bowling Green State University, Bowling Green, Ohio 4-3403 ABSTRACT This report is the second of a series of articles to be prepared as a second "Flora of the Oak Openings." The study represents a comprehensive survey of members of the Cyperaceae, Gramineae, Juncaceae, Sparganiaceae, and Xyridaceae in the Oak Openings region. Of the 202 species listed in this study, 34 species reported by Moseley in 1928 were not found during the present investigation. Fifty-seven species found by the present investi- gator were not observed or reported by Moseley. Many of these species or varieties are rare and do not represent a stable part of the flora. Changes in species present or in fre- quency of occurrence of species collected by both Moseley and Easterly may be explained mainly by the alteration of habitats as the Oak Openings region becomes increasingly urbanized or suburbanized. Some species have increased in frequency on the floodplain of Swan Creek, in wet ditches and on the banks of the Norfolk and Western Railroad right-of-way, along newly constructed roadsides, or on dry sandy sites. INTRODUCTION The grass family ranks third among the large plant families of the world. The family ranks number one as far as total numbers of plants that cover fields, mead- ows, or roadsides are concerned. No other family is used as extensively to pro- vide food or shelter or to create a beautiful landscape. The sedge family does not fare as well in terms of commercial importance, but the sedges do make avail- able forage and food for wild fowl and they do contribute plant cover in wet areas where other plants would not be as well adapted.
