  • Hawkes CV (2004) Effects of Biological Soil Crusts on Seed Germination of Four Endangered Herbs in a Xeric Florida Shrubland During Drought
    Hawkes CV (2004) Effects of biological soil crusts on seed germination of four endangered herbs in a xeric Florida shrubland during drought. Plant Ecol 170:121- 134 In a south-central Florida rosemary shrubland, the effects of biological soil crusts on the germination of four small-seeded herbs (Eryngium cuneifolium, Hypericum cumulicola, Paronychia chartacea, and Polygonella basiramia) were studied using a series of greenhouse and field experiments. This study sought to determine propitious environmental conditions for the continued survival of these four federally endangered species and further develop our limited understanding of the effects of biological soil crusts on the germination of vascular plants. In the greenhouse experiment, three of the four species (Eryngium cuneifolium, Hypericum cumulicola, and Paronychia chartacea) showed significantly greater germination in pots with crust left intact than in pots with destroyed, or autoclaved crust. The other species (Polygonella basiramia) showed no significant difference in germination between the two treatments. In the field experiment, plots were established in which resident soil crusts were either left intact, flamed, or mechanically disturbed. To investigate the effects of time since fire and distance to dominant shrub (Florida rosemary, Ceratiola ericoides), plots were set-up in three ages of postfire and two distances from the dominant shrub (away and near). Seeds of all four species were disseminated in field plots and checked monthly for germination. One species, Hypericum cumulicola, showed significant levels of increased germination in plots with crust as opposed to burned or disturbed plots. Germination was low for all four herbs and each species showed a unique response to effects of soil crust disturbance, time since fire, and distance to C.

  • Appendix D to ERP Application Listed Species Occurrences and Project
    Appendix D to ERP Application NUCOR Steel Micro Mill Appendix D to ERP Application Listed Species Occurrences and Project Effects for Nucor Steel Micro Mill in Avon Park, Polk County, Florida This listed species occurrence information and project effects discussion is supplemental to the Wetlands and Habitat Assessment Technical Memorandum (Appendix C), which is also attached to the ERP application. See Appendix C for project description and location map. This supplemental information is provided to assist the technical review of the project’s potential effect on Federal and State listed species and/or their habitats. Included with this supplemental information are these figures: Figure D1 – Wildlife Observations Onsite and within 1 Mile Radius Figure D2 – Wildlife Observation Records and Crossings within 5 Mile Radius Figure D3 – Site Photographs May-June 2018 Wildlife and Habitat Onsite Habitat The entire area is currently managed citrus cultivation. No natural upland habitats remain in the project area. A small area of mature oak trees near the former home site remains near Pabor Lake to the south. Construction contractors’ trailers will be parked in that area. Access roads of compacted imported clay fill soil or compacted sand and densely grass, encircle and traverse the groves. These conditions can be seen in site photographs attached to this Appendix D. The citrus groves offer minimal habitat requirements for very few listed species. No wetland habitats or other surface water habitats occur within the project footprint, including the proposed rail spur, and access roads. Offsite Habitat The micro mill will be over 1000 feet from any remaining non-cultivated uplands east and west of the proposed development site.

Some of the most important, theoretical explanations for this diversity centre on the evolution of life histories. Comparative studies on life history evolution, have received significant attention in the zoological literature, but have lagged in plants. Recent developments, however, have emphasised the value of comparative analysis of data for many species to test existing theories of life history evolution, as well as to provide the basis for developing additional or alternative theories.

  • Highlands Scrub Hypericum Hypericum Cumulicola (Small) P
    Highlands Scrub Hypericum Hypericum cumulicola (Small) P. Adams ypericum cumulicola is a rare species that is Federal Status: Endangered (January 21, 1987) endemic to the Lakes Wales Ridge in central Florida. Critical Habitat: None Designated HIt is only known from Polk and Highlands counties. Florida Status: Endangered Within those counties, it may occur in relatively large populations of hundreds or thousands of individuals. The Recovery Plan Status: Revision (May 18, 1999) scrub hypericum is threatened by habitat loss, isolation of Geographic Coverage: Rangewide populations, and fire suppression threats, factors which led to its listing as an endangered species on January 21, 1987. Measures being used to conserve this species include land Figure 1. County distribution of Highlands scrub acquisition and management. This account represents a revision of the existing re- covery plan for the Highlands scrub hypericum (FWS 1996). Description Hypericum cumulicola is a small, short-lived perennial herb reaching 20 to 70 cm in height. It is branched from the base and has a woody, fibrous root system. The stems are shorter and more numerous in winter and spring before reproductive stalks are differentiated. Usually there are three stems, but there can be as many as 17 stems on a healthy plant (Quintana-Ascencio and Morales-Hernández in press). During the reproductive season, all stems of mature individuals bear flowers and fruits. The leaves of H. cumulicola are opposite, simple, entire, and needle-like. Flowers are small, bisexual, and arranged in cymes. The calyx consists of five distinct sepals, while the corolla consists of five bright yellow petals shaped like the blades of a propeller.

  • Florida Scrub Is a Plant Community Easily Recognized
    Florida Scrub Including Scrubby Flatwoods and Scrubby High Pine lorida scrub is a plant community easily recognized FNAI Global Rank: G2/G3 by the dominance of evergreen shrubs and frequent FNAI State Rank: S2 Fpatches of bare, white sand. With more than two Federally Listed Species in S. FL: 32 dozen threatened and endangered species dependent upon scrub, the entire community is itself endangered. Recovery State Listed Species in S. FL: 100 of the community and its associated plants and animals will depend upon land acquisition and effective land Florida scrub. Original photograph courtesy of The management. Nature Conservancy. Synonymy Florida scrub in its various phases has been called xeric scrub, sand scrub, big scrub, sand pine scrub, oak scrub, evergreen oak scrub, dune oak scrub, evergreen scrub forest, slash pine scrub, palmetto scrub, rosemary scrub, and rosemary bald. Florida scrubs may be classified as coastal or interior. Scrubs are often named by the dominant plant species, as in rosemary scrub, sand pine scrub, palmetto scrub, or oak scrub. Some authors have confused closed-canopy forests of sand pine trees with scrub. Scrubs that are very recent in origin, usually a result of mans activities, are called pioneer scrubs. Communities intermediate between scrub and pine flatwoods have been called dry or xeric flatwoods but now are referred to as scrubby flatwoods. Communities intermediate between scrub and high pine have been called southern ridge sandhills, hickory scrub, yellow sand scrub, turkey oak scrub, turkey oak barrens, and natural turkey oak barrens, but probably are best referred to as scrubby high pine.
