    Medical Research Archives The Vascular Flora of Back Bay National Wildlife Refuge and False Cape State Park, Virginia The Vascular Flora of Back Bay National Wildlife Refuge and False Cape State Park, Virginia Richard Stalter* and Eric E. Lamont ** Department of Biological Sciences, St. John's University, Jamaica, NY 11439 New York Botanical Garden, Bronx, NY 10458 *Corresponding Author Dr. Richard Stalter ( [email protected] ) Copyright 2015 KEI Journals. All rights reserved. Medical Research Archives The Vascular Flora of Back Bay National Wildlife Refuge and False Cape State Park, Virginia ABSTRACT The vascular flora of Bay National Wildlife Refuge and False Cape State Park, Virginia consists of 602 species within 343 genera and 123 families. Of these 519 are native (86%) while 83 are not native to the region. Thirty two species are listed as rare or endangered in Virginia including two small populations of Bartonia verna at False Cape State Park found nowhere else in the state. Several species with southern affinities reach their northern range limit on the Back Bay region, whereas only two northern taxa, Hudsonia tomentosa and Myrica pensylvania are near their southern limit. Non-native varieties of Phragmites australis are a major component of the natural vegetation and pose a threat to native taxa. Each taxonomic entry in the checklist is accompanied by an annotation which includes the locality and habitat in which each taxon occurs, frequence of occurrence, range extensions, rarity status, and pertinent synonyms. Key words : flora, distribution, biodiversity, Back Bay National Wildlife Refuge, False Cape State Park, Virginia. Copyright 2015 KEI Journals.

One of America’s oldest global trade destinations, Norfolk has been transformed into a global center for international security and coastal resilience. We are home to Naval Station Norfolk, the world’s largest naval base, and NATO’s only headquarters in North America. We also serve as a national leader in health care, transportation, higher education, and visual and performing arts. Norfolk is investing in transformative projects that will enhance our assets, foster inclusive economic growth, and develop talented and motivated residents. In 2018, we launched the transformation of the St. Paul’s Area, which will reshape three public housing communities that encompass more than 200 acres near our thriving downtown. Investments in the people, physical infrastructure, and anchor institutions that are native to this area are helping us to attract new businesses and entrepreneurs that will drive regional productivity and growth. The neighborhoods of the St. Paul’s Area are just one example of the 16 qualified opportunity zones, the most of any city or county in the Commonwealth of Virginia, that we hope you will consider for investment.

The directory is designed to assist in locating specific local and regional services available to Chesapeake citizens.
