The purpose of a 5-year review is to evaluate whether or not the species’ status has changed since it was listed (or since the most recent 5-year review). Based on the 5-year review, we recommend whether the species should be removed from the list of endangered and threatened species, be changed in status from endangered to threatened, or be changed in status from threatened to endangered. Our original listing as endangered or threatened is based on the species’ status considering the five threat factors described in section 4(a)(1) of the Act.

United States Department of Agriculture Vascular Plants and a Brief Forest Service Rocky Mountain History of the Kiowa and Rita Research Station General Technical Report Blanca National Grasslands RMRS-GTR-233 December 2009 Donald L. Hazlett, Michael H. Schiebout, and Paulette L. Ford Hazlett, Donald L.; Schiebout, Michael H.; and Ford, Paulette L. 2009. Vascular plants and a brief history of the Kiowa and Rita Blanca National Grasslands. Gen. Tech. Rep. RMRS- GTR-233. Fort Collins, CO: U.S. Department of Agriculture, Forest Service, Rocky Mountain Research Station. 44 p. Abstract Administered by the USDA Forest Service, the Kiowa and Rita Blanca National Grasslands occupy 230,000 acres of public land extending from northeastern New Mexico into the panhandles of Oklahoma and Texas. A mosaic of topographic features including canyons, plateaus, rolling grasslands and outcrops supports a diverse flora. Eight hundred twenty six (826) species of vascular plant species representing 81 plant families are known to occur on or near these public lands. This report includes a history of the area; ethnobotanical information; an introductory overview of the area including its climate, geology, vegetation, habitats, fauna, and ecological history; and a plant survey and information about the rare, poisonous, and exotic species from the area. A vascular plant checklist of 816 vascular plant taxa in the appendix includes scientific and common names, habitat types, and general distribution data for each species. This list is based on extensive plant collections and available herbarium collections. Authors Donald L. Hazlett is an ethnobotanist, Director of New World Plants and People consulting, and a research associate at the Denver Botanic Gardens, Denver, CO.

AN ANNOTATED VASCULAR FLORA AND FLORISTIC ANALYSIS OF THE SOUTHERN HALF OF THE NATURE CONSERVANCY DAVIS MOUNTAINS PRESERVE, JEFF DAVIS COUNTY, TEXAS, U.S.A. Jeffrey James Keeling Sul Ross State University Box C-64 Alpine, Texas 79832-0001, U.S.A. [email protected] ABSTRACT The Nature Conservancy Davis Mountains Preserve (DMP) is located 24.9 mi (40 km) northwest of Fort Davis, Texas, in the northeastern region of the Chihuahuan Desert and consists of some of the most complex topography of the Davis Mountains, including their summit, Mount Livermore, at 8378 ft (2554 m). The cool, temperate, “sky island” ecosystem caters to the requirements that are needed to accommo- date a wide range of unique diversity, endemism, and vegetation patterns, including desert grasslands and montane savannahs. The current study began in May of 2011 and aimed to catalogue the entire vascular flora of the 18,360 acres of Nature Conservancy property south of Highway 118 and directly surrounding Mount Livermore. Previous botanical investigations are presented, as well as biogeographic relation- ships of the flora. The numbers from herbaria searches and from the recent field collections combine to a total of 2,153 voucher specimens, representing 483 species and infraspecies, 288 genera, and 87 families. The best-represented families are Asteraceae (89 species, 18.4% of the total flora), Poaceae (76 species, 15.7% of the total flora), and Fabaceae (21 species, 4.3% of the total flora). The current study represents a 25.44% increase in vouchered specimens and a 9.7% increase in known species from the study area’s 18,360 acres and describes four en- demic and fourteen non-native species (four invasive) on the property.

A key mission of this facility is to provide a research and learning experience in the Chihuahuan Desert. We hope that this manual will assist you in planning your research and learning activities. You will probably be given a short lecture by the station Director upon entering the station. Please pay attention as IMRS is not without potential hazards and some long-term research projects are underway that could be disturbed if one is careless. Indio Mountains Research Station came into being as a result of the generosity of a benefactor and the far-sighted vision of former UTEP President Haskell Monroe. Upon his death in 1907, the will of Boston industrialist Frank B.

Vascular Plant Species of the Comanche National Grassland in United States Department Southeastern Colorado of Agriculture
Vascular Plant Species of the Comanche National Grassland in United States Department Southeastern Colorado of Agriculture Forest Service Donald L. Hazlett Rocky Mountain Research Station General Technical Report RMRS-GTR-130 June 2004 Hazlett, Donald L. 2004. Vascular plant species of the Comanche National Grassland in southeast- ern Colorado. Gen. Tech. Rep. RMRS-GTR-130. Fort Collins, CO: U.S. Department of Agriculture, Forest Service, Rocky Mountain Research Station. 36 p. Abstract This checklist has 785 species and 801 taxa (for taxa, the varieties and subspecies are included in the count) in 90 plant families. The most common plant families are the grasses (Poaceae) and the sunflower family (Asteraceae). Of this total, 513 taxa are definitely known to occur on the Comanche National Grassland. The remaining 288 taxa occur in nearby areas of southeastern Colorado and may be discovered on the Comanche National Grassland. The Author Dr. Donald L. Hazlett has worked as an ecologist, botanist, ethnobotanist, and teacher in Latin America and in Colorado. He has specialized in the flora of the eastern plains since 1985. His many years in Latin America prompted him to include Spanish common names in this report, names that are seldom reported in floristic pub- lications. He is also compiling plant folklore stories for Great Plains plants. Since Don is a native of Otero county, this project was of special interest.

Four-Nerve Daisy the Four-Nerve Daisy’S Botanical Name Tetraneuris Scaposa Is of Greek Origin, Tetra, Four and Neuron, Nerve
Four-Nerve Daisy The Four-Nerve Daisy’s botanical name Tetraneuris scaposa is of Greek origin, tetra, four and neuron, nerve. The name is a reference to the petal-like parts (rays) of the flower that have 3 veined lobes. Four-Nerve Daisy, also known by the common names Hymenoxys, Stemmy Four-nerve Daisy, Yellow Daisy, and Bitterweed, is a perennial 1 to 3 feet tall with silvery clumping foliage from a woody base. It forms a single 1-inch yellow flower on leafless stalks. It often appears covered in long-lasting flowers. Native to Texas and nearby states, the Four-Nerve Daisy is heat and drought tolerant. It does best in dry, well-drained soil. It prefers full sun or part shade, and once established does not require supplemental water. The most notable feature of the Four-Nerve Daisy is its bloom time which is typically from February through early summer but can flower almost every day of the year even in the northern part of the state. The bloom time can be extended by pruning off the spent bloom stalks. Although deer resistant, Four-Nerve Daisy is a good pollinator attractive to bees, butterflies, and other pollinators. Its winter-time blooms are often one of the only sources of nectar. As an ornamental plant, it works well in sunny rock gardens, as a border plant, and in containers. It is a more colorful substitute for liriope or monkey grass. Consider planting Four-Nerve Daisies in the ‘nuisance strip’ between the curb and sidewalk where it can be difficult to water regularly.
