    "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.

NHESP is responsible for the conservation and protection of hundreds of species that are not hunted, fished, trapped, or commercially harvested in the state. The Program's highest priority is protecting the 176 species of vertebrate and invertebrate animals and 259 species of native plants that are officially listed as Endangered, Threatened or of Special Concern in Massachusetts. Endangered species conservation in Massachusetts depends on you! A major source of funding for the protection of rare and endangered species comes from voluntary donations on state income tax forms.

Hybrids and.Hybridisation A. Natural Hybrids B. Artificial Hybrids V. Discussion VI. Conclusion and Summary VII. Acknowledgments 1. INTRODUCTION This group of closely allied species included in the section Extensae of the subgenus Carex is represented in Great Britain by: Carex flava L., C. Zepidocarpa Tausch, C. demissa Hornem., C. serotina Merat, and C. scandinavica E. W. Davies. The taxonomy of these species has caused difficulty for many years, and, although the chromosome numbers have been investigated by workers in Sweden, Japan and America, there has been considerable discrepancy in their results (see below), and no counts have previously been made on British material. Haploid Species Chromosome Number Determined by : Date C. extensa Good. 30 Wulff 1937 C. flava L. 29 Tanaka 1942.1948 30 Heilbom 1939 30 Wahl 1940 C. lepidocarpa Tausch 29 Tanaka 1942.1948 34 Heilbom 1924 "C. oederi Retz" = C. serotina Merat 36 Heilbom 1922.1924.1928 35 Tanaka 1948 2. CYTOLOGICAL TECHNIQUE The cytological technique employed throughout this investigation is a modification of the aceto-carmine squash method by the addition of a drop of iron alum. The Carices have exceedingly small chromosomes and hard wiry roots, which make them difficult cytological material. The original attempts to count the chromosomes of this genus were made at mitosis using root tips. First embedding and sectioning methods were tried and later the root tip squash technique was used, staining with Feulgen, aceto-carmine, or a combination of the two stains together.

  • A List of Grasses and Grasslike Plants of the Oak Openings, Lucas County

    A List of Grasses and Grasslike Plants of the Oak Openings, Lucas County

    A LIST OF THE GRASSES AND GRASSLIKE PLANTS OF THE OAK OPENINGS, LUCAS COUNTY, OHIO1 NATHAN WILLIAM EASTERLY Department of Biology, Bowling Green State University, Bowling Green, Ohio 4-3403 ABSTRACT This report is the second of a series of articles to be prepared as a second "Flora of the Oak Openings." The study represents a comprehensive survey of members of the Cyperaceae, Gramineae, Juncaceae, Sparganiaceae, and Xyridaceae in the Oak Openings region. Of the 202 species listed in this study, 34 species reported by Moseley in 1928 were not found during the present investigation. Fifty-seven species found by the present investi- gator were not observed or reported by Moseley. Many of these species or varieties are rare and do not represent a stable part of the flora. Changes in species present or in fre- quency of occurrence of species collected by both Moseley and Easterly may be explained mainly by the alteration of habitats as the Oak Openings region becomes increasingly urbanized or suburbanized. Some species have increased in frequency on the floodplain of Swan Creek, in wet ditches and on the banks of the Norfolk and Western Railroad right-of-way, along newly constructed roadsides, or on dry sandy sites. INTRODUCTION The grass family ranks third among the large plant families of the world. The family ranks number one as far as total numbers of plants that cover fields, mead- ows, or roadsides are concerned. No other family is used as extensively to pro- vide food or shelter or to create a beautiful landscape. The sedge family does not fare as well in terms of commercial importance, but the sedges do make avail- able forage and food for wild fowl and they do contribute plant cover in wet areas where other plants would not be as well adapted.

In tracking populations of plant species of conservation concern (Missouri Natural Heritage Program, 2007), there are sometimes also boom years in the number of reports of new populations. Because of reports of five new populations and a surge in numbers of plants at some previously-known sites, 2007 provided encouraging news for the conservation of the auriculate false foxglove [Agalinis auriculata (Michx.)
