Harbingerofspring (Erigenia Bulbosa) Harbinger­of­Spring (Erigenia bulbosa) Pennsylvania Threatened State Rank: S2 (imperiled) Global Rank: G5 (secure) What it looks like: Harbinger of spring is a small (5 to 15 centimeter, or two to six inches tall) herb in the carrot family Leaves are delicate and compound, divided irregularly into oval leaflets Flowers are small and white, clustered in two to four small umbels; flower­ ing occurs in March and April Where it is found: Rich, mixed hardwood forests in lowlands, costal plains, and mountain valleys from Ontario south to Georgia and New York west to Kansas and Oklahoma. USDA­NRCS PLANTS Database ­ from Illus­ Why it is rare: trated flora of the northern states and Canada. (Britton, N.L., and A. Brown. 1913.) Vol. 3: 109. Harbinger­of­spring’s lowland forest habitats have been fragmented by logging and invaded by exotic species. Although the species’ worldwide population is considered secure, it is quite rare in Pennsylvania and other states at the edge of its range (see maps). North American State/Province Conservation Status Map by NatureServe (2007) State/Province Status Ranks SX – presumed extirpated SH – possibly extirpated S1 – critically imperiled S2 – imperiled S3 – vulnerable S4 – apparently secure S5 – secure Not ranked/under review Conservation considerations: Loss of bottomland forest to agriculture and unsustainable forestry has severely impacted many of the forests where this plant may have existed. Conserving high­quality bottomland forests where this plant normally grows is key to the protection of this species. References • Gleason, Henry A. and Arthur Cronquist. 1991.

  • Floristic Quality Assessment Report
    FLORISTIC QUALITY ASSESSMENT IN INDIANA: THE CONCEPT, USE, AND DEVELOPMENT OF COEFFICIENTS OF CONSERVATISM Tulip poplar (Liriodendron tulipifera) the State tree of Indiana June 2004 Final Report for ARN A305-4-53 EPA Wetland Program Development Grant CD975586-01 Prepared by: Paul E. Rothrock, Ph.D. Taylor University Upland, IN 46989-1001 Introduction Since the early nineteenth century the Indiana landscape has undergone a massive transformation (Jackson 1997). In the pre-settlement period, Indiana was an almost unbroken blanket of forests, prairies, and wetlands. Much of the land was cleared, plowed, or drained for lumber, the raising of crops, and a range of urban and industrial activities. Indiana’s native biota is now restricted to relatively small and often isolated tracts across the State. This fragmentation and reduction of the State’s biological diversity has challenged Hoosiers to look carefully at how to monitor further changes within our remnant natural communities and how to effectively conserve and even restore many of these valuable places within our State. To meet this monitoring, conservation, and restoration challenge, one needs to develop a variety of appropriate analytical tools. Ideally these techniques should be simple to learn and apply, give consistent results between different observers, and be repeatable. Floristic Assessment, which includes metrics such as the Floristic Quality Index (FQI) and Mean C values, has gained wide acceptance among environmental scientists and decision-makers, land stewards, and restoration ecologists in Indiana’s neighboring states and regions: Illinois (Taft et al. 1997), Michigan (Herman et al. 1996), Missouri (Ladd 1996), and Wisconsin (Bernthal 2003) as well as northern Ohio (Andreas 1993) and southern Ontario (Oldham et al.

At the highest elevations, the dominant plants are dwarf heaths such as alpine bilberry and cushion-plants such as diapensia. Bigelow’s sedge is characteristic. Wetland depressions, such as small alpine bogs and rare sloping fens, may be found within the surrounding upland matrix. In the lower subalpine zone, deciduous shrubs such as nannyberry provide cover in somewhat protected areas; dwarf heaths including crowberry, Labrador tea, sheep laurel, and lowbush blueberry, are typical.

A List of the Vascular Plants of Bender Mountain Preserve (Including Adjacent Parts of the Delhi Township Property and Sisters’ Hill) DENIS CONOVER1*, TIM SISSON2, DAN BOONE3, AND MARY M. RIESTENBERG4 1Dept. Biological Sciences, University of Cincinnati, Cincinnati, OH 45221-0006; 2Western Wildlife Corridor, P.O. Box 389077, Cincinnati, OH 45238; 33228 Hanna Ave., Cincinnati, OH 45211; 4Dept. of Biology, Mount St. Joseph University, 5701 Delhi Ave., Cincinnati, OH 45233. *Corresponding author: [email protected] Abstract: Several species of non-native invasive plants, including Amur honeysuckle (Lonicera maackii), had become quite numerous at Bender Mountain Preserve in Hamilton County, which made it very difficult for native plants to compete. After the removal of Amur honeysuckle by Western Wildlife Corridor volunteers, there was a resurgence of native plants in the preserve. So far, 431 species of vascular plants have been identified, 73% of which are native to Hamilton County. This list is sure to grow over the next few years as the preserve continues to recover. It is hoped that this study will encourage land managers and park districts not to give up on their nature preserves: non-native, invasive plants can be controlled in natural areas and native plants can come back. Key Words: Amur honeysuckle, native plants, Western Wildlife Corridor, Western Mesophytic Forest Region, Ohio River Valley Introduction Bender Mountain Nature Preserve (N 39.10º, W 084.67º) is a 22.3 ha preserve in southwest Hamilton County, Ohio, consisting of property owned by Delhi Township Parks and Recreation as well as land owned by the Western Wildlife Corridor.

  • Chapter 4 Native Plants for Landscape Use in Kentucky
    Chapter 4 Native Plants for Landscape Use In Kentucky A publication of the Louisville Water Company Wellhead Protection Plan, Phase III Source Reduction Grant # X9-96479407-0 Chapter 4 Native Plants for Landscape Use in Kentucky Native Wildflowers and Ferns The U. S. Department of Transportation, (US DOT), has developed a listing of native plants, (ferns, annuals, perennials, shrubs, and trees), that may be used in landscaping in the State of Kentucky. Other agencies have also developed listings of native plants, which have been integrated into the list within this guidebook. While this list is, by no means, a complete report of the native species that may be found in Kentucky, it offers a starting point for additional research, should the homeowner wish to find additional KY native plants for use in a landscape design, or to check if a plant is native to the State. A reference book titled Wildflowers and Ferns of Kentucky, which was recommended by personnel at the Salato Wildlife Center as an excellent reference for native plants, was also used to develop the list. (A full bibliography is listed at the end of this chapter.) While many horticultural and botanical experts may dispute the inclusion of specific plants on the listing, or wish to add more plants, the list represents the latest information available for research, by the amateur, at the time. The information listed within the list was taken at face value, and no judgment calls were made about the suitability of plants for the list. The author makes no claims as to the completeness, accuracy, or timeliness of this list.
