  • Desert Plants of Utah
    DESERT PLANTS OF UTAH Original booklet and drawings by Berniece A. Andersen Revised May 1996 HG 505 FOREWORD The original Desert Plants of Utah by Berniece A. Andersen has been a remarkably popular book, serving as a tribute to both her botanical knowledge of the region and to her enthusiastic manner. For these reasons, we have tried to retain as much of the original work, in both content and style, as possible. Some modifications were necessary. We have updated scientific names in accordance with changes that have occurred since the time of the first publication and we have also incorporated new geographic distributional data that have accrued with additional years of botanical exploration. The most obvious difference pertains to the organization of species. In the original version, species were organized phylogenetically, reflecting the predominant concepts of evolutionary relationships among plant families at that time. In an effort to make this version more user-friendly for the beginner, we have chosen to arrange the plants primarily by flower color. We hope that these changes will not diminish the enjoyment gained by anyone familiar with the original. We would also like to thank Larry A. Rupp, Extension Horticulture Specialist, for critical review of the draft and for the cover photo. Linda Allen, Assistant Curator, Intermountain Herbarium Donna H.

    INDIVIDUALISTIC AND PHYLOGENETIC PERSPECTIVES ON PLANT COMMUNITY PATTERNS Jeffrey E. Ott A dissertation submitted to the faculty of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of Biology Chapel Hill 2010 Approved by: Robert K. Peet Peter S. White Todd J. Vision Aaron Moody Paul S. Manos i ©2010 Jeffrey E. Ott ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT Jeffrey E. Ott Individualistic and Phylogenetic Perspectives on Plant Community Patterns (Under the direction of Robert K. Peet) Plant communities have traditionally been viewed as spatially discrete units structured by dominant species, and methods for characterizing community patterns have reflected this perspective. In this dissertation, I adopt an an alternative, individualistic community characterization approach that does not assume discreteness or dominant species importance a priori (Chapter 2). This approach was used to characterize plant community patterns and their relationship with environmental variables at Zion National Park, Utah, providing details and insights that were missed or obscure in previous vegetation characterizations of the area. I also examined community patterns at Zion National Park from a phylogenetic perspective (Chapter 3), under the assumption that species sharing common ancestry should be ecologically similar and hence be co-distributed in predictable ways. I predicted that related species would be aggregated into similar habitats because of phylogenetically-conserved niche affinities, yet segregated into different plots because of competitive interactions. However, I also suspected that these patterns would vary between different lineages and at different levels of the phylogenetic hierarchy (phylogenetic scales). I examined aggregation and segregation in relation to null models for each pair of species within genera and each sister pair of a genus-level vascular plant iii supertree.

Apenas oito espécies foram registradas nas áreas de cangas, enquanto as demais estão presentes apenas nas florestas de terra firme ou em áreas transicionais com a vegetação rupestre. Pilocarpus e Zanthoxylum estão representados nas áreas de canga por duas espécies cada, enquanto os demais gêneros possuem apenas uma espécie cada (Dictyoloma, Ertela, Esenbeckia e Spiranthera). São apresentados chaves de identificação, descrições morfológicas, ilustrações e comentários taxonômicos sobre as espécies ocorrentes sobre canga. Palavras-chave: conservação, FLONA Carajás, Flora Neotropical, Pará, Sapindales. Abstract Rutaceae is represented in the Serra dos Carajás by 20 species belonging to 15 genera. Only eight species were recorded in the areas of canga, while the remaining ones are found only in the forests or in transitional areas between the canga vegetation and the adjacent “terra firme forest”. Pilocarpus and Zanthoxylum are represented in the canga areas by two species each, while the remaining genera have only one species recorded (Dictyoloma, Ertela, Esenbeckia and Spiranthera). Identification keys, morphological descriptions, illustrations and taxonomic comments are presented for the species found on canga substrate. Key words: conservation, FLONA Carajás, Neotropical flora, Pará, Sapindales. Rutaceae A família é caracterizada pelas folhas com Rutaceae é composta por 154 gêneros e cerca glândulas que aparecem como pontos translúcidos de 2100 espécies com distribuição subcosmopolita, e que secretam óleos voláteis aromáticos, mas principalmente tropical e subtropical (Kubitzki geralmente alternas (opostas em poucos gêneros) et al.
