  • Native/Exotic/Invasive
    Invasive Species Caesar weed • Scientific name: Urena lobata • Order name: Malvales • Family Name: Malvaceae • Native/Exotic/Invasive: Invasive • History: Caesar weed was first introduced to the United States because of its textile properties which was believed to be a cheaper and easier replacement of cotton; it was concluded that the plant was not as efficient compared to cotton because of the seed's long dormancy and impermeable seed coat (7). Caesar Weed is known for its rapid growth rate in disturbed areas which are becoming more common as human population increases and natural areas are being developed (7). Sword fern • Scientific Name: Polystichum munitum • Order name: Polypodiales • Family name: Dryopteridaceae • Native/Invasive/Exotic: Invasive • History: Sword fern is also known as “king of the northwest ferns” or “Christmas fern” and is an invasive species in Florida. Swords ferns were used medicinally to cure diarrhea or by rubbing the fronds on nettle stings to reduce the pain. This species has a wide tolerance to soil and moisture which makes it perfect for the Florida environment which ranges from sunny to flooding in a span of a few months (4). Air potato • Scientific name: Dioscorea bulbifera • Order name: Dioscoreales • Family name: Dioscoreaceae • native/exotic/invasive: Invasive • History: This species is an invasive which has caused a major disturbance to the vegetative community in Moccasin Lake Park; they are also NOT EDIBLE. Air potato can grow up to eight inches a day and grows potato like tubers which produces more air potato plants. This plant can quickly overtake an area, pushing out native species; some ways to get rid of it are to cut it down, burn it, or freeze the bulbs (sterilization).

May not be copied or reused without express written permission of the publisher. click here to BUY THIS BOOK INTRODUCTION HOW THE BOOK IS ORGANIZED Conifers and broadleaved trees and shrubs are treated separately in this book. Each group has its own set of keys to genera and species, as well as plant descriptions. Plant descriptions are or- ganized alphabetically by genus and then by species. In a few cases, we have included separate subspecies or varieties. Gen- era in which we include more than one species have short generic descriptions and species keys. Detailed species descrip- tions follow the generic descriptions. A species description in- cludes growth habit, distinctive characteristics, habitat, range (including a map), and remarks. Most species descriptions have an illustration showing leaves and either cones, flowers, or fruits. Illustrations were drawn from fresh specimens with the intent of showing diagnostic characteristics. Plant rarity is based on rankings derived from the California Native Plant Society and federal and state lists (Skinner and Pavlik 1994). Two lists are presented in the appendixes. The first is a list of species grouped by distinctive morphological features. The second is a checklist of trees and shrubs indexed alphabetically by family, genus, species, and common name. CLASSIFICATION To classify is a natural human trait.

  • CDFG Natural Communities List
    Department of Fish and Game Biogeographic Data Branch The Vegetation Classification and Mapping Program List of California Terrestrial Natural Communities Recognized by The California Natural Diversity Database September 2003 Edition Introduction: This document supersedes all other lists of terrestrial natural communities developed by the Natural Diversity Database (CNDDB). It is based on the classification put forth in “A Manual of California Vegetation” (Sawyer and Keeler-Wolf 1995 and upcoming new edition). However, it is structured to be compatible with previous CNDDB lists (e.g., Holland 1986). For those familiar with the Holland numerical coding system you will see a general similarity in the upper levels of the hierarchy. You will also see a greater detail at the lower levels of the hierarchy. The numbering system has been modified to incorporate this richer detail. Decimal points have been added to separate major groupings and two additional digits have been added to encompass the finest hierarchal detail. One of the objectives of the Manual of California Vegetation (MCV) was to apply a uniform hierarchical structure to the State’s vegetation types. Quantifiable classification rules were established to define the major floristic groups, called alliances and associations in the National Vegetation Classification (Grossman et al. 1998). In this document, the alliance level is denoted in the center triplet of the coding system and the associations in the right hand pair of numbers to the left of the final decimal. The numbers of the alliance in the center triplet attempt to denote relationships in floristic similarity. For example, the Chamise-Eastwood Manzanita alliance (37.106.00) is more closely related to the Chamise- Cupleaf Ceanothus alliance (37.105.00) than it is to the Chaparral Whitethorn alliance (37.205.00).

  • Frost Damage, Survival, and Growth of Pinus Radiata, P. Muricata, and P
    161 FROST DAMAGE, SURVIVAL, AND GROWTH OF PINUS RADIATA, P. MURICATA, AND P. CONTORTA SEEDLINGS ON A FROST FLAT JOHN M. BALNEAVES Ministry of Forestry, Forest Research Institute, P.O. Box 31-011, Christchurch, New Zealand (Received for publication 13 November 1987) ABSTRACT Three cultivation treatments (ripping only, discing and ripping, and ripping and bedding) were tested on a frost-prone site in Otago. Incidence of frost damage and tree survival and growth were compared for Pinus radiata D. Don, P. muricata D. Don, and P. contorta Loudon. Frost damage to P. radiata and P. muricata was severe on uncultivated plots but was significantly reduced on the intensely cultivated plots; rip/bed sites gave the best results. Survival of these species followed similar trends. Pinus contorta was relatively unaffected. Pinus radiata IV2/0 stock did not grow well on the uncultivated plots, and growth responded markedly to ripping. More intensive cultivation did not yield additional growth. Growth of P. muricata and P. contorta did not improve significantly with soil cultivation. Keywords: frost damage; survival; growth; cultivation; Pinus radiata; Pinus muricata; Pinus contorta. INTRODUCTION Effects of site cultivation on establishment of P. radiata, P. muricata, and P. contorta on an extensive frost-flat were studied in Mahinerangi Forest, near Dunedin (45°50'30"S and 169°56'30"E). The experimental area had been part of a sheep station until 1945, and the vegetation was predominantly native tussock (Hetherington & Balneaves 1973). In 1946 the Dunedin City Corporation planted the area in P. radiata, but a combination of fire in 1947 and severe summer frosts destroyed much of the plantings.

  • Pitch Canker Kills Pines, Spreads to New Species and Regions
    Pitch canker kills pines, Page 1 of 8 Return to Previous Page Pitch canker kills pines, spreads to new species and regions Andrew J. Storer o Thomas R. Gordon o Paul L. Dallara o David L. Wood California Agriculture, Vol. 48, No. 6, pages 9-13 The host and geographic range of the pitch canker pathogen has greatly increased since it was first discovered in California in 1986. Most significantly, it now affects many pine species, including native stands of Monterey pine, and has made a transgeneric jump to Douglas fir. Isolated occurrences of the disease have been found as far north as Mendocino County. Insects are strongly implicated as vectors of the pathogen, and long term management appears to be dependent on the development of resistant tree varieties. In infested regions, the planting of Monterey pine and other pine tree species should be undertaken with caution. Pitch canker disease was first identified in California at New Brighton State Beach, Santa Cruz County, in 1986. By the beginning of 1992, it was recorded as far north as San Francisco and as far south as San Diego County. Most records were from Monterey pine, but occasional infections of bishop, Coulter, Italian stone, Aleppo, ponderosa and Canary Island pine were reported. The most extensive infestations were in Santa Cruz and southern Alameda counties. In Southern California, with the exception of an isolated infestation in Santa Barbara County, only Monterey pine Christmas tree plantations were affected. Pitch canker disease, caused by the fungus Fusarium subglutinans f. sp. pini, is characterized by a resinous exudation on the surface of Trees with advanced pich canker symptoms have significant crown shoots, branches, exposed roots and boles of dieback due to the large number of infested trees.
