  • Understory Plants on Reforested Pastures at Finca Alexis, Puntarenas, Costa Rica
    Project report Understory plants on reforested pastures at Finca Alexis, Puntarenas, Costa Rica PP Tropenbotanik und Pflanzen-Tier-Interaktionen in Costa Rica by Angelika Till WS 19/20 Supervisor: Mag. Dr. Anton Weissenhofer Introduction Costa Rica, as one of the most biodiverse countries worldwide, accommodates about 9,361 plant species, including ferns and fern allies, Gymnosperms and Angiosperms (Hammel et al., 2004). There are several studies about plant biodiversity in the tropics, but since there is such an immense species richness, there is still a significant gap in the knowledge of several plant groups, e.g. understorey plants. Understory plants make up about half of the Costa Rican flora, consisting of herbs (27%), treelets (16%), and part of vines (16%) (Hammel et al., 2004). Nevertheless, most of the conducted studies are concerned with tree biodiversity (Gentry & Dodson, 1987a; Huber, 1996; Huber et al., 2008; Mayfield & Daily, 2005). This is why this survey pursues the study of understory plants in the Golfo Dulce region where the La Gamba Field Station is situated. A first survey on the herbaceous flora around La Gamba has been conducted by Holzer et al. (2016) during a field course of the University of Vienna in 2016. This study focuses on the understory flora of Finca AleXis. Finca AleXis is a former pasture with a farmhouse (Casa AleXis) of the Tropical station at the Fila Consteña mountain range (Fila Cal) that was converted into a simple field station. It is part of the COBIGA project (Corredor Biológico La Gamba) with the goal to form a rainforest corridor between the tropical mountain rainforest of Fila Cal and the lowland rainforest of the Golfo Dulce (https://www.regenwald.at/en/project-information/biological-corridor- cobiga-forest-and-climate-protection).

  • Natural Forest Community Delineation Methods
    Natural Forest Community Delineation Methods Keith A. Bradley and George D. Gann February 2, 2005 The Institute for Regional Conservation 22601 S.W. 152 Avenue; Miami, Florida 33170 George D. Gann, Executive Director Introduction The Natural Forest Community (NFC) system was established in 1984 under ordinance 89-9, Chapter 24-60 of the Miami-Dade County Code. The ordinance provides legal protection for sites designated by the county as NFCs: “Natural Forest Community shall mean all stands of trees (including their associated understory) which were designated as Natural Forest Communities on the Dade County Natural Forest Community Maps and approved by the Board of County Commissioners, pursuant to Resolution No. R-1764-84.” Factors for reviewing proposed Natural Forest Community sites in the original ordinance included: 1) Presence of endangered, threatened, rare, or endemic species (plants or animals); 2) Plant species diversity on the site; 3) Size of trees; 4) Size of site; 5) Wildlife habitat value; 6) Geological features; and 7) Percentage of site covered by non-native plant species. As required by the ordinance, quantitative evaluation criteria were developed by DERM incorporating the above factors, including separate criteria for the delineation of hardwood hammocks and pinelands. These criteria have become outdated as more scientifically rigorous criteria for delineating natural areas have been developed since 1984, primarily relating to delineation of wetland habitats. Some of the methods used to delineate NFCs by DERM proved to be ineffective including the establishment of transects to measure plant species cover and diversity on each site. As specified in section 151 of the ordinance, evaluation criteria may be revised occasionally.

  • Floristic Composition and Species Richness of Subtropical Seasonally Wet Muhlenbergia Sericea Prairies in Portions of Central and South Florida Steve L
    Floristic Composition and Species Richness of Subtropical Seasonally Wet Muhlenbergia sericea Prairies in Portions of Central and South Florida Steve L. Orzell Avon Park Air Force Range, 29 South Blvd., Avon Park Air Force Range, FL 33825-5700 [email protected] Edwin Bridges Botanical and Ecological Consultant, 7752 Holly Tree Place, NW, Bremerton, WA 98312-1063 [email protected] ABSTRACT Fire-maintained, species-rich, seasonally wet subtropical grasslands dominated by muhly grass (Mu- hlenbergia sericea ), here referred to as calcareous wet prairies, occur on mineral soils between pine- lands (or Florida dry prairies) and herbaceous wetlands. Southern Florida calcareous prairies/pinelands are described based upon species composition, species richness, niche or habitat breadth, taxonomic uniqueness, and geographic area. This study differentiated three calcareous prairie/pineland regions, central, south-central, and south Florida. A south-central Florida community type occurs sporadically from Polk County south to Okeechobee, Hendry, and Sarasota counties, in an otherwise acidic prairie/ pineland landscape. Quantitative sampling using nested and non-nested modules in Polk and Okeechobee counties was utilized to determine fine-scale species richness values. Results indicate that these prairies have among the highest fine-scale vascular plant species richness values recorded in North America, up to 27 species in 0.1 m2, 49 species in 1 m2, and 171 species in 1000 m2. Floristic lists compiled from 43 sites in 14 southern Florida counties demonstrate that many sites have biodiversity significance with over 100 species. Several have 140-180 species recorded from single-event visits. The community species pool consists of 412 taxa from south-central Florida calcareous prairies alone with 548 taxa when south Florida calcareous pineland/prairies are included.
