  • Centranthus Ruber (L.) DC., RED VALERIAN. Perennial Herb, Several
    Centranthus ruber (L.) DC., RED VALERIAN. Perennial herb, several-stemmed at base, decumbent or ascending to erect, to 100+ cm tall; shoots arising from base relatively unbranched, with long internodes, with leaves appearing tufted at nodes having leaves on unexpanded axillary shoots, glabrous, glaucous. Stems: cylindric, to 10 mm diameter, fused bases of upper cauline leaves forming ledges across each node, somewhat woody; hollow, pith wide. Leaves: opposite decussate, simple, petiolate (lower leaves) and sessile (upper leaves), without stipules; petiole channeled, to 40 mm long, somewhat indistinct from blade, expanded at base; blade elliptic or lanceolate (typical cauline leaves) to ovate (cauline leaves subtending reproductive shoots), 30–200 × 20–70 mm, reduced on lateral branches, long-tapered at base, entire, acuminate (typical leaves) to tail-like (caudate, cauline leaves) at tip, pinnately veined with midrib raised on lower surface, bluish green. Inflorescence: panicle of cymes (thyrse), terminal (axillary), domed, 35−70 mm across, with 2 or more orders of opposite decussate lateral branching and many flowers in a somewhat dense cluster, the second and third order forks with a terminal flower, ultimate branchlets somewhat 1-sided, bracteate, essentially glabrous; central axis with several−10 nodes; bracts at the lowest node 2 (= 1 subtending each main branch), bases fused across node, leaflike, ovate, 3−4 mm long, midvein slightly raised on lower surface; first internode 10+ mm long, decreasing upward; bracts subtending lateral branches and larger branchlets oblong or narrowly triangular to narrowly spatulate, 1−3 mm long, bases fused across node, with some short glandular hairs on margins; bractlet subtending flower awl-shaped, 1−2 mm long increasing in fruit, usually abscised before fruit matures; pedicel absent.

  • Phylogeny and Phylogenetic Taxonomy of Dipsacales, with Special Reference to Sinadoxa and Tetradoxa (Adoxaceae)
    PHYLOGENY AND PHYLOGENETIC TAXONOMY OF DIPSACALES, WITH SPECIAL REFERENCE TO SINADOXA AND TETRADOXA (ADOXACEAE) MICHAEL J. DONOGHUE,1 TORSTEN ERIKSSON,2 PATRICK A. REEVES,3 AND RICHARD G. OLMSTEAD 3 Abstract. To further clarify phylogenetic relationships within Dipsacales,we analyzed new and previously pub- lished rbcL sequences, alone and in combination with morphological data. We also examined relationships within Adoxaceae using rbcL and nuclear ribosomal internal transcribed spacer (ITS) sequences. We conclude from these analyses that Dipsacales comprise two major lineages:Adoxaceae and Caprifoliaceae (sensu Judd et al.,1994), which both contain elements of traditional Caprifoliaceae.Within Adoxaceae, the following relation- ships are strongly supported: (Viburnum (Sambucus (Sinadoxa (Tetradoxa, Adoxa)))). Combined analyses of C ap ri foliaceae yield the fo l l ow i n g : ( C ap ri folieae (Diervilleae (Linnaeeae (Morinaceae (Dipsacaceae (Triplostegia,Valerianaceae)))))). On the basis of these results we provide phylogenetic definitions for the names of several major clades. Within Adoxaceae, Adoxina refers to the clade including Sinadoxa, Tetradoxa, and Adoxa.This lineage is marked by herbaceous habit, reduction in the number of perianth parts,nectaries of mul- ticellular hairs on the perianth,and bifid stamens. The clade including Morinaceae,Valerianaceae, Triplostegia, and Dipsacaceae is here named Valerina. Probable synapomorphies include herbaceousness,presence of an epi- calyx (lost or modified in Valerianaceae), reduced endosperm,and distinctive chemistry, including production of monoterpenoids. The clade containing Valerina plus Linnaeeae we name Linnina. This lineage is distinguished by reduction to four (or fewer) stamens, by abortion of two of the three carpels,and possibly by supernumerary inflorescences bracts. Keywords: Adoxaceae, Caprifoliaceae, Dipsacales, ITS, morphological characters, phylogeny, phylogenetic taxonomy, phylogenetic nomenclature, rbcL, Sinadoxa, Tetradoxa.

  • Pollinators and Nectar Producing Plants
    Pollinators and Nectar Producing Plants A pollinator is any animal that acts as an agent for distributing pollen from plant to plant. Pollinators ensure full harvests and seed production from many agricultural crops and provide for healthy plants grown in backyards, community gardens, and rural and urban areas. Populations of insect pollinators such as butterflies and bees have declined dramatically in recent years. Even though we'd all be in trouble without pollinators, many people ignore their value and at worst eradicate them with indiscriminate pesticide application and habitat destruction. Pollinators are worth protecting for their own sakes, but we would do well to remember that these creatures facilitate reproduction in 90% of the world's flowering plants, and that--on average--one in every three bites of food we humans take comes courtesy of an animal pollinator. When people think of pollination, many focus on bees. In many cases the use of insecticides for pest control has had the unwelcome side effect of killing the bees necessary for pollinating crops. Such environmental stresses plus several species of parasitic mites devastated honeybee populations in the United States beginning in the 1980s, making it necessary for farmers to rent bees from keepers throughout the U.S. in order to get their crops pollinated and greatly affecting the pollination of plants in the wild. Bees are the principal pollinators, but there are other important pollinators as well. These include other insects such as flies, moths, butterflies, wasps, and even some beetles. They also include hummingbirds and bats. Creating an enjoyable and environmentally friendly backyard habitat helps support all valuable pollinators.

  • Phylogeny and Biogeography of Valerianaceae (Dipsacales) with Special Reference to the South American Valerians Charles D.Bell Ã,1, Michael J.Donoghue
    ARTICLE IN PRESS Organisms, Diversity & Evolution 5 (2005) 147–159 www.elsevier.de/ode Phylogeny and biogeography of Valerianaceae (Dipsacales) with special reference to the South American valerians Charles D.Bell Ã,1, Michael J.Donoghue Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology, Yale University, New Haven, CT 065211, USA Received 22 April 2004; accepted 26 October 2004 Abstract Species of Valerianaceae are a common component of the alpine flora throughout the Northern Hemisphere as well as the Andes of South America.Sequence data from three chloroplast markers ( psbA-trnH intron, trnK-matK intron, and the trnL-F region) along with the internal transcribed spacer region (ITS) of nuclear ribosomal DNA were used to infer relationships within Valerianaceae.Both genomes, as well as a combined data set, provide support for the major clades within the group and do not support a monophyletic Valeriana.In addition, these data indicate that Plectritis is nested within South American Valeriana, as opposed to being sister to Centhranthus as previously hypothesized. Valerianaceae appear to have originated in Asia, probably in the Himalayas, and subsequently to have dispersed several times to Europe and to the New World.Our results imply that Valerianaceae colonized South America on multiple occasions from the north.In one of these cases there appears to have been a substantial and rapid radiation, primarily in the high elevation paramo habitat.A variety of methods were used to estimate divergence times to determine when Valerianaceae might have colonized South America.Regardless of the method and fossil constraints applied, our estimates suggest that Valerianaceae colonized South America prior to the formation of the Isthmus of Panama.

  • Butterfly Gardening4.Pdf
    Visit us on the Web: www.gardeninghelp.org Butterfly Gardening Butterflies epitomize the essence of natural beauty with their colors, patterns and graceful movements. For centuries, humankind has been enchanted by the exotic nature of butterflies. Their delicate form has been imitated in crafts, jewelry making, depicted in art and used in ceremonial dress. Their astonishing metamorphosis (“change of form”) from earthbound caterpillars to beautiful, winged adults has become incorporated into the ritual and folklore of many countries. In Christian art, the metamorphosis of the butterfly symbolizes the Resurrection. While our fascination with butterflies has transcended recorded history, our understanding of their evolution is limited at best. This is due largely to the fact that butterflies are such fragile creatures, they tend to disintegrate after death rather than be preserved as fossils. The most revealing specimens have been those found encased in amber dating back to the Cretaceous era, between 100-140 million years ago. While the fossil record indicates that butterflies first appeared in the Cretaceous era; there is a growing body of evidence that indicates a much earlier ancestry. Butterflies are classified as insects because they possess a hard external skeleton, three body parts (head, thorax and abdomen) and three jointed pairs of legs. Closely related to skippers and moths, butterflies are members of the insect order Lepidoptera from the Greek lepis, for scale, and pteron, for wing. Butterflies can be distinguished from skippers and moths by their antennae—butterflies have clubbed antenna, skippers have clubbed antenna with a distinctive hook at the tip, and moths have feathery antennae.

  • TR13 L (Hythe Ranges East and Fisherman's Beach)
    Folkestone and Hythe Birds Tetrad Guide: TR13 L (Hythe Ranges East and Fisherman’s Beach) The tetrad TR13 L comprises more than 50% sea, with most of the land being part of the Hythe Ranges which is predominately open shingle with some scattered vegetation. Consequently the range of breeding species present is rather limited but probably includes Ringed Plover, Red-legged Partridge and Black Redstart and possibly Cuckoo, Oystercatcher, Nightingale, Wheatear and Stonechat. Turtle Dove bred until relatively recently and there was a Little Tern colony known at the ranges from 1909 and apparently moved progressively westward as range activity increased during the twentieth century, disappearing completely by 1968. It was the terns which attracted Roger Norman’s attention in the late 1940s and he watched the site regularly during the 1950s and 1960s, and again from 1990, though focusing mainly on the section within TR13 G in the earlier years. The bushes attract migrants in spring and autumn, with sightings having included Garden Warbler, Sedge Warbler, Redstart and Spotted Flycatcher, amongst the commoner species. The seawall and open areas can hold Wheatears and Whinchats, with hirundines, pipits, wagtails, finches and buntings passing overhead. Rarer species seen in recent years have included Wood Lark (in December 2014 and 2017), Hoopoe (in April 2015) and Dartford Warbler (in December 2017). The foreshore is worth checking for waders, gulls and terns, with regular Sanderling and Turnstone, and occasionally Grey Plover, Dunlin, Purple Sandpiper and Whimbrel, whilst Bar-tailed and Black-tailed Godwits have been noted passing offshore. Gulls may include Mediterranean Gull and Little Gull, whilst Arctic Tern, Black Tern and Little Tern have been recorded in recent years.
