Anotated Checklist 1 CHECKLIST OF VASCULAR PLANTS OF BONNER AND BOUNDARY COUNTIES, IDAHO compiled by Marian J. Fuller, Ph.D in Botany This checklist of Bonner and Boundary counties contains 1382 vascular plant taxa belonging to 109 families and to 460 genera. The families are arranged phylogenetically, not alphabetically. Alphabetical indices of the families and genera are provided. The genera are arranged alphabetically within the each family, and species are arranged alphabetically within the genus. Additional sources and their acronyms: (BLM) = McFarlane, S, Kuhman T. and Johnson, C. 2002. Field Guide to Special Status Plants of the Cottonwood Field Office. (FPNW) = Hitchcock, C.

Synonomy: in this checklist, the synonyms used in the Flora of the Pacific Northwest have been placed within brackets, [ ]’s. Many genera have been split. For example, the genus Aster has been split into several genera, including Canadanthus, Eucephalus, Ionactis, and Symphyotrichum. Sometimes, a species has been determined to be a subspecies or variety of an “older” species. Frequently, a subspecies or variety has been deemed distinct enough to be elevated to the species level. Dedication: to Blue III, Azure and Blue IV, my friends and faithful companions during the thirty years of this project. I was never alone. They probably thought “picking posies” was crazy, but they put up with all my idiosyncrasies. They are my beloved “hearing-ear” dogs. Anotated Checklist 2 INDEX OF FAMILIES Two families, Loranthaceae and Nymphaeaceae, have been split. The genus, Arceuthobium, of “old family”, Loranthaceae, has been placed in the “new family” Viscaceae. The genus, Brasenia, of the “old family”, Nymphaeaceae, has been placed in the “new family” Cabombaceae.

    "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.

    Outline of Angiosperm Phylogeny

    Outline of angiosperm phylogeny: orders, families, and representative genera with emphasis on Oregon native plants Priscilla Spears December 2013 The following listing gives an introduction to the phylogenetic classification of the flowering plants that has emerged in recent decades, and which is based on nucleic acid sequences as well as morphological and developmental data. This listing emphasizes temperate families of the Northern Hemisphere and is meant as an overview with examples of Oregon native plants. It includes many exotic genera that are grown in Oregon as ornamentals plus other plants of interest worldwide. The genera that are Oregon natives are printed in a blue font. Genera that are exotics are shown in black, however genera in blue may also contain non-native species. Names separated by a slash are alternatives or else the nomenclature is in flux. When several genera have the same common name, the names are separated by commas. The order of the family names is from the linear listing of families in the APG III report. For further information, see the references on the last page.

    DECISION NOTICE/DESIGNATION ORDER Decision Notice Finding of No Significant Impact Designation Order By virtue of the authority vested in me by the Secretary of Agriculture under regulations at 7 CFR 2.42, 36 CFR 251.23, and 36 CFR Part 219, I hereby establish the Osborn Mountain Research Natural Area. It shall be comprised of lands described in the section of the Establishment Record entitled "Location." The Regional Forester has recommended the establishment of this Research Natural Area in the Record of Decision for the Bridger-Teton National Forest Land and Resource Management Plan. That recommendation was the result of analysis of the factors listed in 36 CFR 219.25 and Forest Service Manual 4063.41. Results of the Regional Forester's analysis are documented in the Bridger-Teton National Forest Land and Resource Management Plan and Final Environmental Impact Statement which are available to the public. The Osborn Mountain Research Natural Area will be managed in compliance with all relevant laws, regulations, and Forest Service Manual direction regarding Research Natural Areas. It will be administered in accordance with the management direction/prescription identified in the Establishment Record. I have reviewed the Bridger-Teton Land and Resource Management Plan (LRMP) direction for this RNA and find that the management direction cited in the previous paragraph is consistent with the LRMP and that a Plan amendment is not required. The Forest Supervisor of the Bridger-Teton National Forest shall notify the public of this decision and mail a copy of the Decision Notice/Designation Order and amended direction to all persons on the Bridger-Teton National Forest Land and Resource Management Plan mailing list.

    Literature Cited

    Literature Cited Robert W. Kiger, Editor This is a consolidated list of all works cited in volumes 19, 20, and 21, whether as selected references, in text, or in nomenclatural contexts. In citations of articles, both here and in the taxonomic treatments, and also in nomenclatural citations, the titles of serials are rendered in the forms recommended in G. D. R. Bridson and E. R. Smith (1991). When those forms are abbre- viated, 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 and E. A. Mennega (1992+). 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 alphabetically 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”. Works missing from any suffixed sequence here are ones cited elsewhere in the Flora that are not pertinent in these volumes.
  • Identification of Plant Species for Crop Pollinator Habitat Enhancement in the Northern Prairies

    Identification of Plant Species for Crop Pollinator Habitat Enhancement in the Northern Prairies

    Journal of Pollination Ecology, 14(21), 2014, pp 218-234 IDENTIFICATION OF PLANT SPECIES FOR CROP POLLINATOR HABITAT ENHANCEMENT IN THE NORTHERN PRAIRIES Diana B. Robson* The Manitoba Museum, 190 Rupert Avenue, Winnipeg, MB Canada R3B 0N2 Abstract—Wild pollinators have a positive impact on the productivity of insect-pollinated crops. Consequently, landowners are being encouraged to maintain and grow wildflower patches to provide habitat for important pollinators. Research on plant-pollinator interaction matrices indicates that a small number of “core” plants provide a disproportionately high amount of pollen and nectar to insects. This matrix data can be used to help design wildflower plantings that provide optimal resources for desirable pollinators. Existing interaction matrices from three tall grass prairie preserves in the northern prairies were used to identify core plant species that are visited by wild pollinators of a common insect-pollinated crop, namely canola (Brassica napus L.). The wildflower preferences of each insect taxon were determined using quantitative insect visitation and floral abundance data. Phenology data were used to calculate the degree of floral synchrony between the wildflowers and canola. Using this information I ranked the 41 wildflowers that share insect visitors with canola according to how useful they are for providing pollinators with forage before and after canola flowers. The top five species were smooth blue aster (Symphyotrichum laeve (L.) A. & D. Löve), stiff goldenrod (Solidago rigida L.), wild bergamot (Monarda fistulosa L.), purple prairie-clover (Dalea purpurea Vent.) and Lindley’s aster (Symphyotrichum ciliolatum (Lindl.) A. & D. Löve). By identifying the most important wild insects for crop pollination, and determining when there will be “pollen and nectar gaps”, appropriate plant species can be selected for companion plantings to increase pollinator populations and crop production.
