Overview At the fourth meeting of the Conference of the Parties to CITES (CoP4; Gaborone, 1983), the United States of America proposed Dudleya stolonifera and Dudleya traskiae to be included in Appendix I (CoP4 Prop. 138 and Prop. 139), which were adopted by the Parties. At the ninth meeting of the Plants Committee (PC9; Darwin, 1999), the two species were reviewed under the Periodic Review of the Appendices, and were subsequently recommended for transfer from Appendix I to Appendix II. Dudleya stolonifera and D. traskiae were transferred to Appendix II at CoP11 (Gigiri, 2000) and CoP12 (Santiago, 2002), respectively. The species are the only Dudleya species listed in the CITES Appendices. * The geographical designations employed in this document do not imply the expression of any opinion whatsoever on the part of the CITES Secretariat or the United Nations Environment Programme concerning the legal status of any country, territory, or area, or concerning the delimitation of its frontiers or boundaries.

    TECHNICAL MEMORANDUM GLENN LUKOS ASSOCIATES Regulatory Services PROJECT NUMBER: 03650025CLAY TO: Hardy Strozier, The Planning Associates FROM: Jason Fitzgibbon, Biologist DATE: May 25, 2014 SUBJECT: Update to Biological Constraints Analysis for the 1,400-Acre Alberhill Villages Specific Plan Site Located in Lake Elsinore, Riverside County, California. On March 24, and May 12, 2014, updated focused plant surveys and general biological surveys were conducted at the approximately 1,420-acre Alberhill Villages Specific Plan (site), in the City of Lake Elsinore, Riverside County, California. Firstly, the purpose of this update was to verify existing biological resources on-site as identified during surveys conducted by Glenn Lukos Associates (GLA) biologists in 2008. Secondly, updated focused plant surveys, general biological surveys, and habitat assessments for sensitive species were conducted to identify and address the potential for the project to impact any sensitive species that may not have been addressed in the 2008 GLA Biological Constraints report. SUMMARY In general, relatively few changes were noted at the approximately 1,420-acre site. The majority of the site is still being actively mined and as a result is primarily comprised of ruderal, non- native vegetation, or recently disturbed ground. Significant changes in vegetation/land cover types at the site included the recent removal of a large area of non-native eucalyptus (Eucalyptus sp.) woodland along the northern margin of the site adjacent to Temescal Creek Road, the establishment of a few isolated patches of Riversidean sage scrub within the active mine footprint, and the growth of willow riparian forest along the perimeter of multiple water quality basins.

  • Literature Cited
    Literature Cited Robert W. Kiger, Editor This is a consolidated list of all works cited in volume 8, whether as selected references, in text, or in nomenclatural contexts. In citations of articles, both here and in the taxonomic treat- ments, and also in nomenclatural citations, the titles of serials are rendered in the forms recom- mended in G. D. R. Bridson and E. R. Smith (1991). When those forms are abbreviated, as most are, cross references to the corresponding full serial titles are interpolated here alphabetically by abbreviated form. In nomenclatural citations (only), book titles are rendered in the abbreviated forms recommended in F. A. Stafleu and R. S. Cowan (1976–1988) and F. A. Stafleu et al. (1992– 2009). Here, those abbreviated forms are indicated parenthetically following the full citations of the corresponding works, and cross references to the full citations are interpolated in the list alpha- betically by abbreviated form. Two or more works published in the same year by the same author or group of coauthors will be distinguished uniquely and consistently throughout all volumes of Flora of North America by lower-case letters (b, c, d, ...) suffixed to the date for the second and subsequent works in the set. The suffixes are assigned in order of editorial encounter and do not reflect chronological sequence of publication. The first work by any particular author or group from any given year carries the implicit date suffix “a”; thus, the sequence of explicit suffixes begins with “b”. There may be citations in this list that have dates suffixed “b” but that are not preceded by citations of “[a]” works for the same year, or that have dates suffixed “c,” “d,” or “e” but that are not preceded by citations of “[a],” “b,” “c,” and/or “d” works for that year.

  • Fine-Scale to Flora-Wide Phylogenetic Perspectives on Californian Plant Diversity, Endemism, and Conservation
    Fine-scale to flora-wide phylogenetic perspectives on Californian plant diversity, endemism, and conservation Bruce G. Baldwin1,2 1 I thank Peter H. Raven, Patricia J. D. Raven, and Peter C. Hoch for being such gracious hosts at the 65th Annual Symposium of the Missouri Botanical Garden on the “Biota of North America: What we know, what we don’t know and what we’re losing.” I also am grateful to Brent D. Mishler, David D. Ackerly, Matthew M. Kling, Andrew H. Thornhill, and other members of the California Plant Phylodiversity Project (CPPP) for their spatial phylogenetic and conservation prioritization efforts and collaboration, to Matthew M. Kling for providing Fig. 1G and 1H, to Toni Corelli, Neal Kramer, Michael Park, and Chris Winchell for permission to reproduce photographs in Fig. 1, to Susan Fawcett for assistance with Fig. 1, and to her and an anonymous reviewer for helpful comments on the manuscript.

  • F. Biological Resources
    LSA ASSOCIATES, INC. BENICIA BUSINESS PARK EIR DECEMBER 2007 IV. SETTING, IMPACTS AND MITIGATION MEASURES F. BIOLOGICAL RESOURCES F. BIOLOGICAL RESOURCES This section describes: 1) existing biological resources at the project site; 2) sensitive plant and animal communities, including wetlands; 3) potentially occurring special-status species; 4) potential impacts to biological resources associated with implementation of the proposed project; and 5) mitigation measures, as appropriate. 1. Setting a. Methods. The methods used to evaluate the site and project are identified below. (1) Records Search and Literature Review. Available reports of biological resources at the project site and special-status species databases were reviewed to identify habitat types and species potentially occurring at the project site. Reports that were prepared by Sycamore Associates, LLC and reviewed by LSA include: Rare Plant Surveys and Habitat Assessment for Wetlands at the Seeno Benicia Industrial Park Project, City of Benicia, Solano County, California1; Rare Plant Surveys of Upland Habitats, Seeno Benicia Industrial Park Project, City of Benicia, Solano County, California2; Summer-Season Focused Special-status Plant Surveys at the Proposed Benicia Industrial Park, Solano County3; Bat Habitat Assessment, Benicia Business Park, Solano County, California4; and Verified Wetlands Delineation and Jurisdictional Determination for the Seeno Benicia Industrial Park Project, City of Benicia, Solano County, California5. The Benicia Business Park Bat Roost Reconnaissance Survey that was prepared by Wetland Research Associates (WRA) was also reviewed. 6 The California Natural Diversity Database7 (CNDDB) and the California Native Plant Society’s (CNPS) on-line Inventory of Rare and Endangered Plants8 were searched to identify potentially occurring special-status species.
