tulip tree Liriodendron tulipifera Kingdom: Plantae Division/Phylum: Magnoliophyta Class: Magnoliopsida Order: Magnoliales Family: Magnoliaceae ILLINOIS STATUS common, native FEATURES Tulip tree, yellow poplar and tulip poplar are all common names for this deciduous tree that is actually not a poplar at all but a member of the magnolia family. It is the tallest-growing tree species in the eastern half of the United States. Its trunk may grow to a diameter of four feet. The crown appears oblong, arising from a long, straight trunk. The bark is gray with furrows that deepen as it ages. The large buds, (up to one inch), are flattened. Leaves are simple and arranged alternately along the stem. Each leaf has four points and a notch at its tip. A leaf measures from four to six inches in both width and length. The flowers are about two inches long with six yellow-green petals that are orange at the base surrounding a cone-shaped structure. Each flower is shaped like a tulip, the characteristic that gave rise to this tree’s common name. The fruit is a dry, winged seed, about two and one-half inches long. Fruits are arranged in clusters. The pith in twigs is chambered (has partitions). BEHAVIORS The tulip tree may be found in the southern two-thirds of Illinois. It grows in the rich soil of upland deciduous forests. Flowers appear in April and May after the leaves have developed. This tree’s wood is used for lumber, to build canoes, for frames, for making furniture, for pulp, to make boxes and more. Its seeds are important wildlife food. HABITATS Aquatic Habitats none Woodland Habitats upland deciduous forests Prairie and Edge Habitats none © Illinois Department of Natural Resources. 2017.

Beyond the Fringe
Beyond the Fringe By Margaret Klein Wilson, Fairfax Master Gardener Intern The final flourish of native spring flowering trees belongs to fringe trees (Chionanthus virginicus). The measured parade of seasonal color — dogwoods and redbuds, flowering cherry and plum — is neatly capped by the fluttering grace of abundant white blossoms that engulf this small, often edge habitat tree beginning in mid-May. Encountering a fringe tree on a breezy spring day is to see masses of white corollas of petals casting their light perfume across the landscape. Is it any wonder Linnaeus named Yale ©2021 Copyright and noted this genus Chionanthus (chion = University snow; anthos = flower) as he compiled the photo: Genera Plantarum (1753)? Less poetically, fringe tree’s common names include Old Man’s Beard, Grancy graybeard, flowering ash and white fringe tree. Genus Chionanthus is a member of the Olive Family, the Olaceae, which includes 29 genera and over 600 species of trees and shrubs common in southeastern Asia and Australasia. Trees in this genus have uses both practical and ornamental: olive for food, ash for its lumber, and forsythia, gardenia and privets for sheer domestic beauty. In North America, ash trees in the genus Fraxinus, devilwood (Osmantus americanus) and Forestiera (swampprivet) are fringe tree’s near relatives. Only two species of fringe tree exist: C. virginicus in eastern North America and C. retusus, native to China. In his citation naming fringe tree the Virginia Native Plant Society 1997 Wildflower of the Year, C. F. Saachi explains this geographic disconnect: “This unusual biogeographic pattern, with different species within a genus … separated by several thousand miles, is a product of major geologic events including mountain building and the effects of glaciation.

8 April 2021 Mr. Jon Kurland Assistant Regional Administrator Protected Resources Division, Alaska Region National Marine Fisheries Service P.O. Box 21668 Juneau, Alaska 99082-1668 Dear Mr. Kurland: The Marine Mammal Commission (the Commission), in consultation with its Committee of Scientific Advisors on Marine Mammals, has reviewed the National Marine Fisheries Service’s (NMFS) 8 January 2021 Federal Register notice (86 Fed. Reg. 1452) revising its proposed designation of critical habitat for Arctic ringed seals (Phoca hispida hispida)1 and reopening the comment period on that proposal. The Commission offers the following comments and recommendations. Background On 28 December 2012, NMFS published a final rule listing the Arctic ringed seal as threatened under the Endangered Species Act (ESA) (77 Fed. Reg. 76706) and requesting information on physical and biological features essential to the conservation of Arctic ringed seals and on economic consequences of designating critical habitat for this species. Section 3(5)(A) of the ESA defines “critical habitat” as: (i) the specific areas within the geographical area occupied by the species, at the time it is listed in accordance with section 4 of this Act, on which are found those physical or biological features (I) essential to the conservation of the species and (II) which may require special management considerations or protection; and (ii) specific areas outside the geographical area occupied by the species at the time it is listed in accordance with the provisions of section 4 of this Act, upon a determination by the Secretary that such areas are essential for the conservation of the species.

Indiana's Native Magnolias
FNR-238 Purdue University Forestry and Natural Resources Know your Trees Series Indiana’s Native Magnolias Sally S. Weeks, Dendrologist Department of Forestry and Natural Resources Purdue University, West Lafayette, IN 47907 This publication is available in color at http://www.ces.purdue.edu/extmedia/fnr.htm Introduction When most Midwesterners think of a magnolia, images of the grand, evergreen southern magnolia (Magnolia grandiflora) (Figure 1) usually come to mind. Even those familiar with magnolias tend to think of them as occurring only in the South, where a more moderate climate prevails. Seven species do indeed thrive, especially in the southern Appalachian Mountains. But how many Hoosiers know that there are two native species Figure 2. Cucumber magnolia when planted will grow well throughout Indiana. In Charles Deam’s Trees of Indiana, the author reports “it doubtless occurred in all or nearly all of the counties in southern Indiana south of a line drawn from Franklin to Knox counties.” It was mainly found as a scattered, woodland tree and considered very local. Today, it is known to occur in only three small native populations and is listed as State Endangered Figure 1. Southern magnolia by the Division of Nature Preserves within Indiana’s Department of Natural Resources. found in Indiana? Very few, I suspect. No native As the common name suggests, the immature magnolias occur further west than eastern Texas, fruits are green and resemble a cucumber so we “easterners” are uniquely blessed with the (Figure 3). Pioneers added the seeds to whisky presence of these beautiful flowering trees. to make bitters, a supposed remedy for many Indiana’s most “abundant” species, cucumber ailments.

On the other hand, more and more taxonomy is being based on electron-microscopy, biochemistry, serology or other modern techniques for which living material may be needed, and for which a herbarium sheet is generally inadequate and a drawing, or even a photomicrograph, is for various reasons unsatisfactory.

THE Magnoliaceae Liriodendron L. Magnolia L. VEGETATIVE KEY TO SPECIES IN CULTIVATION Jan De Langhe (1 October 2014 - 28 May 2015) Vegetative identification key. Introduction: This key is based on vegetative characteristics, and therefore also of use when flowers and fruits are absent. - Use a 10× hand lens to evaluate stipular scars, buds and pubescence in general. - Look at the entire plant. Young specimens, shade, and strong shoots give an atypical view. - Beware of hybridisation, especially with plants raised from seed other than wild origin. Taxa treated in this key: see page 10.
