  • Pollinators and Visitors of the Generalized Food-Deceptive Orchid Dactylorhiza Majalis in North-Eastern Poland
    Biologia https://doi.org/10.2478/s11756-019-00285-0 ORIGINAL ARTICLE Pollinators and visitors of the generalized food-deceptive orchid Dactylorhiza majalis in North-Eastern Poland Beata Ostrowiecka1 & Izabela Tałałaj1 & Emilia Brzosko1 & Edyta Jermakowicz1 & Paweł Mirski1 & Agata Kostro-Ambroziak1 & Łukasz Mielczarek2 & Andrzej Lasoń3 & Janusz Kupryjanowicz4 & Jarosław Kotowicz5 & Ada Wróblewska1 Received: 18 December 2018 /Accepted: 13 May 2019 # The Author(s) 2019 Abstract Pollinator foraging behavior plays a key role in breeding and therefore affects the evolution of the orchid reproductive strategy. Food-deceptive orchids usually implement a generalized plant pollination strategy and a relatively diverse group of pollinators visit them. Dactylorhiza majalis is a food-deceptive, early-flowering orchid that relies on insect-mediated pollination. This study’s objectives were to identify D. majalis’ pollinators and flower visitors and their foraging behaviors on D. majalis inflorescences. We also assessed the bending movement time to determine the relationship between bending time and the duration of pollinators’ visits. To assess pollination efficiency, we measured the spur length of D. majalis flowers, which is expected to affect the mechanical fit to pollinators/Bpotential^ pollinators. The arthropod fauna were investigated to examine the availability of Bpotential^ pollinators in populations. We identified Apis mellifera as this orchid’s main pollinator and confirmed that few of the flower visitors belonged to Diptera (12 individuals, 9 taxa), Hymenoptera (3 individuals, 3 taxa), or Coleoptera (2 individuals, 2 taxa) in our dataset, which was collected over a 2-year period and includes 360 h of video. The arthropods were collected by a sweep net in D. majalis populations and there were fewer Hymenoptera (2.9–23.2%) and Coleoptera (4.4–23.8%) visitors but more Diptera (23.3–58.6%) visitors.

The black fruiting bodies leave a distinctive sooty residue on fingers after rubbing the lichen (Nash et al. 2002). Ribes inerme (mountain gooseberry) Mountain gooseberry is a low perennial shrub, which can be found in montane woods. Leaves are alternate, lobed, and covered with grey hairs (Moss 1983). The flowers of mountain gooseberry are clustered and bell-shaped. This species’ older stems are whitish and often without spines located at the point where the leaves or stems ascend (Moss 1983). Rorripa curvipes (blunt-leaved watercress) Blunt-leaved watercress is a tufted annual less than 10 cm tall with hairless, recumbent stems up to 50 cm long. Leaves are alternate and pinately divided with scattered hairs on the upper leaf surface. Basal leaves grow to 13 cm long and 3 cm wide, stem leaves smaller and slightly clasping. Flowers are short-stalked, 2 - 3 mm across and yellow. The fruits are hairless pods, constricted in the middle. Typically found on mud flats, shores, stream beds, wet meadows and roadsides (Kershaw et al.

We present the first survey of the vascular flora of Scotty Cr eek, a peatland-dominated watershed with discontinuous permafrost about 60 km south of Fort Simpson, Northwest Territories (NWT). Of the 140 vascular plant taxa found at Scotty Creek, two are additions to the boreal flora of NWT: Arethusa bulbosa (Dragon’s-mouth, Orchidaceae) and Carex pauciflora (Few-flowered Sedge, Cyperaceae). The occurrence of Arethusa bulbosa extends the known range of this species 724 km to the northwest, making this purportedly eastern American plant almost pan-Canadian. Two other major range extensions (> 200 km) are reported for Carex brunnescens subsp.

  • Brokenhead Trail & Libau Bog, July 9
    Native Orchid Conservation Inc. Brokenhead Fen and Libau Bog Field Trip, July 9, 2016 The Brokenhead fen contains some different orchids than the June array. The Brokenhead Wetland Ecological Reserve, designated in the summer of 2005, was created to preserve and protect a calcareous fen, a wetland type considered rare in North America. The ecological reserve contains 23 species of provincially rare and uncommon plants as well as 28 of Manitoba’s 36 native orchid species. In the spring and summer of 2007 and 2008, NOCI collected seeds from native orchids (dragon’s mouth [Arethusa bulbosa], lesser rattle-snake (Goodyera repens), heart-leaf twayblade (Listera cordata in both the Libau and Brokenhead reserves. This was done in accordance with a national program, led by Agriculture and AgriFood Canada, to preserve seeds of wild plants in support of Canada’s international commitment at the United Nations Convention on Biodiversity held in Rio de Janeiro in 1992. Situated in the Interlake Plain sub-region of the Manitoba Lowlands Natural Region, the Libau Bog Ecological Reserve preserves and protects a flat and poorly drained floating sedge bog and black spruce-tamarack bog, as well as the 11 species of orchids found there. This floating sedge bog is classified as a quaking bog, formed when a mat of vegetation grows over a shallow pond. The bog is adjacent to the Mars Hill Wildlife Management Area, an end-moraine ridge comprised of sand and gravel, with a few bog areas interspersed. The area is dominated by aspen forest and extensive stands of jack pine. White spruce, black spruce and balsam fir are also found here.

  • Amerorchis Rotundifolia (Banks Ex Pursh) Hultén Small Round-Leaved Orchis
    New England Plant Conservation Program Amerorchis rotundifolia (Banks ex Pursh) Hultén Small Round-leaved Orchis Conservation and Research Plan for New England Prepared by: Lisa St. Hilaire 14 Prospect Street Augusta, Maine 04330 For: New England Wild Flower Society 180 Hemenway Road Framingham, MA 01701 508/877-7630 e-mail: [email protected] • website: www.newfs.org Approved, Regional Advisory Council, 2002 i SUMMARY Small round-leaved orchis (Banks ex Pursh) Hultén (Amerorchis rotundifolia) is endemic to North America and Greenland. It is globally secure (G5), but rare throughout its distribution in the United States. In New England, Amerorchis rotundifolia only grows in cold northern white-cedar swamps and seepage forests of northern Maine (where it is ranked S1), though there are historic records from New Hampshire and Vermont (as well as New York). There are seven extant sites for Amerorchis rotundifolia in Maine; five are currently tracked, and two sites were discovered in the 2001 field season and have not yet been entered in the database for tracking. Amerorchis rotundifolia is at the edge of its range in northern New England, and likely has always been rather rare in our area. Much of the biology of Amerorchis rotundifolia is unknown. It generally flowers in June, but information regarding pollinators, potential herbivores, preferred microhabitats, and mycorrhizal associations is lacking. Unlike some other orchid species, Amerorchis rotundifolia does not respond well to major disturbances such as power line cuts. Primary threats are timber harvest, general habitat destruction, and hydrologic changes. The first two threats are not an issue at the two largest sites as these sites are under conservation ownership, but hydrologic changes may be a potential threat there.

Kershaw & Lorna Allen This key was compiled using informaton primarily from Moss (1983), Packer & Gould (2018), Douglas et. al. (2001) and the Flora of North America (2008-2010). Taxonomy follows VASCAN (Brouillet, 2015). Please let us know if there are ways in which the keys can be improved. The 2017 S-ranks of rare species (S1; S1S2; S2; S2S3; SU, according to ACIMS, 2017) are noted in superscript (S1;S2;SU) afer the species names. For more details go to the ACIMS web site. If naturalized, exotc orchids are discovered in Alberta, their names would be followed by a superscript X (X).
