Introduction Problems Created Spiny cocklebur is an annual plant found in highly disturbed habitats and farm areas. The burs (fruits) of this species become tangled in the fur of livestock, increasing costs to the consumers of wool products. It competes with crops and is a nuisance when growing with hand-harvested crops. The seeds and seedlings of spiny cocklebur are poisonous if consumed, and they are particularly toxic to swine and horses. Regulations Spiny cocklebur is listed as a “B” designated quarantine weed in Oregon and a class “C” noxious weed in Washington. In Arkan- sas, the genus Xanthium is listed as noxious weeds, likely more for spiny cocklebur’s congener Xanthium strumarium (rough cocklebur), which has a much wider distribution in the state. Description Vegetative Growth Spiny cocklebur is an annual plant that blooms in summer. It grows to 5’ tall with striate stems that are yellowish or brownish gray. The leaves may be entire or toothed or lobed. The lower surface of the leaves is covered with white hairs, and the upper leaf surface is white-veined. Leaves are 1’’to 3’’ long and have a 3-forked spine at the leaf base, giving this species the common name “spiny” cocklebur.

  • Medicinal Plants and EAV
    Medicinal plants and EAV Directed phytotherapy These listed medicinal plants facilitate a safe start with the combination EAV & phytotherapy. The symptoms should be correctly classified and treated causally by an EAV practitioner, who also knows which parts of the plants are efficient, how they have to be prepared and who knows the Indications and contraindications of each medicinal plant and can precisely apply them in the energetic context. The best phytopharmaceutical is the one which is tested according the EAV and enables 100% personalized treatments.

  • Host Plant Records for North American Ragweed Flies (Diptera: Tephritidae) 1
    Vol. 95, No. 2. March & April 1984 51 HOST PLANT RECORDS FOR NORTH AMERICAN RAGWEED FLIES (DIPTERA: TEPHRITIDAE) 1 B.A. Foote2 ABSTRACT: Information is given on host plants and infestation rates for 7 of the 8 North American species of Euaresta. The host plants are either ragweeds of the genus Ambrosia or cockleburs of the genus Xanthium, 2 genera of the tribe Ambrosieae (Compositae). The genus Euaresta is a relatively small taxon within the family Tephritidae of the acalyptrate Diptera. It includes 8 species from America north of Mexico (Quisenberry, 1950; Foote, 1965), as well as several from south of the United States; however, virtually no host data are available for these latter species and some doubt exists as to whether they actually belong to the genus (R.H. Foote, in litt.). Relatively little is known of the life histories or larval feeding habits of the Nearctic species except that they seem to be associated either with cockleburs of the genus Xanthium or ragweeds of the genus Ambrosia (Compositae: Ambrosieae). Marlatt 1 1 the ( 89 ) discussed natural history of E. aequalis(Loew), a seed predator of cocklebur (X. strumarium L.). Foote (1965) reported that larvae of E. bella(Loew) and E. festiva (Loew) attacked the seeds of common ragweed (A. artemisiifolia L.) and giant ragweed (A. trifida L.), respectively. He also listed host plants for selected species of Euaresta and discussed briefly the life cycles of E. bella and E. festiva. Batra (1979) described in considerable detail the courtship behavior and oviposition habits of these two species. Goeden and Ricker (1974a, 1974b, 1976) recorded host for plants E.

  • Cynoglossum Officinale L
    United States Department of Agriculture NATURAL RESOURCES CONSERVATION SERVICE Invasive Species Technical Note No. MT-8 January 2007 Ecology and Management of Houndstongue (Cynoglossum officinale L.) by Jim Jacobs, NRCS Invasive Species Specialist, Bozeman, Montana Sharlene Sing, Assistant Research Professor, Montana State University, Bozeman, Montana Abstract Houndstongue, Cynoglossum officinale (Boraginaceae), is a biennial or short-lived perennial originating from montane zones in western Asia and Eastern Europe. Houndstongue reproduces by seed only, and was probably introduced to North America as a grain seed contaminant. This species was first reported in Montana from Sweet Grass County near Big Timber, Montana in 1900. As of 2006, houndstongue has been reported in 35 of Montana’s 56 counties (http://invader.dbs.umt.edu). Houndstongue invades grasslands, pastures, shrublands, forestlands, croplands and riparian areas, and is an effective competitor that readily displaces desirable species, establishing monocultures and further degrading forage quality in disturbed habitats. This species is particularly well adapted to invading and dominating forest openings created through logging activities. Houndstongue has a number of biological characteristics that contribute to its invasiveness. Houndstongue seeds are covered with barbed prickles that have been referred to as ‘nature’s Velcro®. These facilitate the effective, widespread dispersal of seeds on the fur, wool or hides of passing wildlife and livestock, and on the cloths of humans. The seeds are also relatively large; this provision of stored energy confers a significant competitive advantage due to high germination rates and seedling establishment. The large taproot developed in the first year of growth enables houndstongue to tolerate environmental stress and produce many seeds in the second year of growth.

  • Mountain Plants of Northeastern Utah
    MOUNTAIN PLANTS OF NORTHEASTERN UTAH Original booklet and drawings by Berniece A. Andersen and Arthur H. Holmgren Revised May 1996 HG 506 FOREWORD In the original printing, the purpose of this manual was to serve as a guide for students, amateur botanists and anyone interested in the wildflowers of a rather limited geographic area. The intent was to depict and describe over 400 common, conspicuous or beautiful species. In this revision we have tried to maintain the intent and integrity of the original. Scientific names have been updated in accordance with changes in taxonomic thought since the time of the first printing. Some changes have been incorporated in order to make the manual more user-friendly for the beginner. The species are now organized primarily by floral color. We hope that these changes serve to enhance the enjoyment and usefulness of this long-popular manual. We would also like to thank Larry A. Rupp, Extension Horticulture Specialist, for critical review of the draft and for the cover photo. Linda Allen, Assistant Curator, Intermountain Herbarium Donna H.
