  • "National List of Vascular Plant Species That Occur in Wetlands: 1996 National Summary."
    Intro 1996 National List of Vascular Plant Species That Occur in Wetlands The Fish and Wildlife Service has prepared a National List of Vascular Plant Species That Occur in Wetlands: 1996 National Summary (1996 National List). The 1996 National List is a draft revision of the National List of Plant Species That Occur in Wetlands: 1988 National Summary (Reed 1988) (1988 National List). The 1996 National List is provided to encourage additional public review and comments on the draft regional wetland indicator assignments. The 1996 National List reflects a significant amount of new information that has become available since 1988 on the wetland affinity of vascular plants. This new information has resulted from the extensive use of the 1988 National List in the field by individuals involved in wetland and other resource inventories, wetland identification and delineation, and wetland research. Interim Regional Interagency Review Panel (Regional Panel) changes in indicator status as well as additions and deletions to the 1988 National List were documented in Regional supplements. The National List was originally developed as an appendix to the Classification of Wetlands and Deepwater Habitats of the United States (Cowardin et al.1979) to aid in the consistent application of this classification system for wetlands in the field.. The 1996 National List also was developed to aid in determining the presence of hydrophytic vegetation in the Clean Water Act Section 404 wetland regulatory program and in the implementation of the swampbuster provisions of the Food Security Act. While not required by law or regulation, the Fish and Wildlife Service is making the 1996 National List available for review and comment.

Plans are published by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, sometimes prepared with the assistance of recovery teams, contractors, State agencies, and others. Objectives will be attained and any necessary funds made available subject to budgetary and other constraints affecting the parties involved, as well as the need to address other priorities. Recovery plans do not necessarily represent the views nor the official positions or approval of any individuals or agencies involved in the plan formulation, other than the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. They represent the official position of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service only after they have been signed by the Regional Director or Director as an~roved. Approved recovery plans are subject to modification as dictated by new findings, changes in species status, and the completion of recovery tasks. Literature citation should read as follows: U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. 1993. Recovery Plan for Brooksville Bellflower (Campanula robinsiae) and Cooley’s water-willow (Justicia cooleyz).

  • BROOKSVILLE BELLFLOWER COOLEY's WATER WILLOW Campanula Robinsiae Justicia Cooleyi
    BROOKSVILLE BELLFLOWER COOLEY'S WATER WILLOW Campanula robinsiae Justicia cooleyi Photo of Brooksville Bellflower. Photo courtesy Mimi Williams. Photo of Cooley’s Water Willow. Photo courtesy of Bruce Hansen. FAMILY: Brooksville bellflower - Campanulaceae (Bellflower family) Cooley's water willow - Acanthaceae (Acanthus family) STATUS: Endangered (Federal Register, July 27, 1989) DESCRIPTIONS: Brooksville bellflower, an annual herb, has a slender taproot and slender, four-angled stems 0.4 to 6 inches (1 to 15 centimeters) tall. Its largest leaves, ovate to elliptic, are at the base of the plant. Leaves are narrower and shorter closer to the top. Many of this plant's flowers are closed, self-pollinating, and inconspicuous. Those that are open and cross- pollinating are solitary, with .04 to .10-inch long sepals and a deep purple, bell-shaped corolla. Flowering occurs in the spring during March and April. The seeds produced by this species are the smallest of any North American bellflower (Shetler and Morin 1986). Cooley's water willow is a short, rhizomatous, perennial herb. Less than 16 inches (40 centimeters) tall, this herb has upright, quadrangular, stems and leaves up to 2 inches (5 centimeters) long. Flowers are borne on forked, zigzag branches which are slightly longer than the leaves. The petals are fused into a two-lipped corolla with a slightly longer lower lip. This lower lip is mottled lavender and white. The rest of the corolla is bright lavender-rose. Flowering takes place from August to December. An 0.47-inch (1.2-centimeter) capsule is the fruit (Kral 1983; Perkins 1979). RANGE AND POPULATION LEVEL: Both plants are native to the Brooksville Ridge, in north central Hernando County, Florida.

  • “Conservation in Progress” Is a Biannual Summary Posted on the Bok Tower Gardens Website As a Rare Plant Informational Tool for Website Visitors
    “Conservation in Progress” is a biannual summary posted on the Bok Tower Gardens website as a rare plant informational tool for website visitors. Highlights of the Conservation Program achievements from January – June 2014: Etoniah Rosemary (Conradina etonia) This aromatic evergreen shrub, which smells of lemon, pine, and mint, is federally endangered and has been in curation at Bok Tower Gardens since 1993. With the only known population in Etoniah Creek State Forest, Etoniah rosemary is endemic to Putnam County, Florida. Recent surveys indicate that the entire species is comprised of only about 1000 plants. In 2014, aging individuals in the National Collection were propagated, adding vigor to the old accessions. Additionally, 100 new individuals, taken as cuttings from the natural population, were added to the collection. The newest accessions were collected with the goal of representing a large portion of the genetic variation remaining in the species. Each new plant was tagged with an individual identification number and will be monitored as long as they remain at Bok Tower Gardens. Their addition into the National Collection will ensure that the species has continued protection from extinction into the future. Conservation through education of Garden visitors With large numbers of the public visiting Bok Tower Gardens each year, the Rare Plant Conservation Program has a unique opportunity to educate a diverse audience on issues and techniques surrounding conservation of endangered Florida plants. Having over 2000 individual plants from 34 of the rarest species across the state in one location has been an effective tool for linking concepts including differences in plant morphology, symbiotic relationships, environmental interactions, and ecosystem niches to people of all ages.

  • Appendices I Through VIII
    APPENDIX I: Standards for Ecological Classification A given terrestrial ecological system is defined as a group of plant community types that tend to co-occur within landscapes with similar ecological processes, substrates, and/or environmental gradients. A given terrestrial ecological system will typically manifest itself in a landscape at intermediate geographic scales of 10s to 1,000s of hectares and persist for 50 or more years. Ecological processes include natural disturbances such as fire and flooding. Substrates may include a variety of soil surface and bedrock features, such as shallow soils, alkaline parent materials, sandy/gravelling soils, or peatlands. Finally, environmental gradients include hydrologically defined patterns in coastal zones, arid grassland or desert areas, or montane, alpine or subalpine zones defined by climate. By plant community type, we mean a vegetation classification unit at the association or alliance level of the US National Vegetation Classification (US-NVC) (Grossman et al. 1998, Jennings et al. 2003, NatureServe 2004), or, if these are not available, other comparable vegetation units. US-NVC associations are used wherever possible to describe the component biotic communities of each terrestrial system. Ecological systems are defined using both spatial and temporal criteria that influence the grouping of associations. Associations that consistently co-occur on the landscape therefore define biotic components of each ecological system type. Our approach to ecological systems definition using US-NVC associations is similar to the biotope or habitat approach used, for example, by the EUNIS habitat classification, which explicitly links meso-scale habitat units to European Vegetation Survey alliance units (Rodwell et al. 2002).
